Bakersfield Smile Design | Dentist Dr. Kenneth W Krauss DDS

Bakersfield Smile Design, led by Dr. Kenneth W. Krauss DDS, is a cosmetic and sedation dental practice located at 1919 G Street in downtown Bakersfield, California. The 93301 zip code covers the city’s downtown core, and the practice focuses on cosmetic dentistry, smile makeovers, and sedation-based dental care for patients who experience anxiety.

Cosmetic dentistry is the primary clinical focus. Smile makeover consultations allow patients to discuss specific concerns and explore what combination of cosmetic services might address their goals. Dr. Krauss works through findings and options in detail before any work is started, so patients have a clear picture of the proposed plan and expected outcomes.

Sedation dentistry is a key service and is routinely offered to patients who have had negative dental experiences or who have significant anxiety around dental procedures. The practice is experienced in caring for patients who have deferred dental care for extended periods and who need a supportive clinical environment to begin treatment.

New patients receive a thorough consultation and examination before any treatment is planned. The team is experienced with patients returning to dental care after a long gap, as well as patients seeking significant cosmetic improvements. Treatment planning takes each patient’s goals and concerns into account before any procedure is recommended.

The downtown G Street location is accessible from the city center and surrounding neighborhoods including Oleander, East Bakersfield, and areas along the Highway 99 corridor. Patients from across greater Bakersfield seeking a sedation-capable cosmetic dentist can reach the practice via the contact information on this page.

Patients who have avoided dental care for years due to anxiety may find that a practice built around sedation and a supportive approach makes it possible to address long-deferred needs. A candid consultation conversation about what has been put off and what sedation options are available helps shape a realistic treatment plan.
