Bringing Specialized Endodontics to Bakersfield Suburbs

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Residents of Bakersfield and surrounding areas have a lot to be proud of – our Southern California region is the perfect blend of urban culture and spacious suburban living. However, unlike a major metropolitan city like Los Angeles, some medical specialists and other necessary amenities can be difficult to come by in the area. That's why the dental team at Kern Dental Specialties serves as an invaluable dentist in Bakersfield and surrounding communities.

In recent years, many families living in rural areas have struggled to find convenient medical and dental care – particularly when they require specialized treatments. In fact, The Seattle Times reports that in most cases, federal dollars for medical residencies have been spent on teaching hospitals located in cities, leading many dental specialists to settle in an urban environment before they even open their practice. Further still, Dr. John McCarthy, assistant dean for regional affairs at the UW School of Medicine says that rural medicine "can be quite demanding, and this generation is less inclined to work quite as hard as previous generations. They don't give up their life as readily."

The situation is very similar when it comes to dentistry. Most suburban and even rural areas will have a local dentist on hand who can perform relatively simple procedures like general cleanings and filling cavities. However, the situation can become more complicated for those who require treatment for more involved issues like cracked teeth, dental pulp infection, traumatized teeth or other root-related dental problems. These sorts of issues require a precise and highly skilled endodontist, which is exactly what Kern Dental Specialties provides to Bakersfield and surrounding areas as far-reaching as Arvin, Delano, Lamont and Lake Isabella.

What is an Endodontist?
An endodontist is a dental specialist who is focused on the branch of dentistry known as endodontics which involves the soft inner tissue of the teeth, called pulp. Since dental pulp contains the nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue of teeth, endodontists require meticulous precision and unparalleled dental knowledge. That's why; finding a truly skilled endodontist outside of a major urban center can be a challenge.  

Yet, patients at Kern Dental Specialties will find precisely that. Their Delano, Lamont and Arvin dentist team consists of:

• Dr. Harry Malhotra – The founder of Kern Dental Specialties, and an expert in endodontics and restorative dentistry.
• Dr. George Bogen – A renowned, board certified endodontist who is extensively published in peer-reviewed journals.
• Dr. James Malouf – A skillful endodontist with a several years of experience in restorative dentistry.

Though Bakersfield suburbs like Arvin, Delano, Lamont and Lake Isabella may not be household names across the globe, Drs. Malhotra, Bogen and Malouf ensure that the residents of these cities can experience convenient, truly world-class endodontics.
