A dental crown is a custom-made porcelain cap that fully covers a tooth weakened by decay, a large filling, a fracture, or a root canal. Our Bakersfield patients love how natural a Cacho crown looks — color, shape and translucency are matched to your real teeth.
A crown is a custom porcelain cap that fully restores a tooth weakened by decay, fracture or a root canal. We craft crowns that match the shade, shape and translucency of your natural teeth.
We use precise digital impressions (no gooey trays) and a trusted local lab so crowns fit perfectly the first time. Your bite stays comfortable and the tooth is protected from cracking for years to come.

Porcelain crowns in our Bakersfield office typically cost $1,100–$1,700 per tooth depending on materials and insurance. We verify your benefits and quote you in writing before starting.
A well-cared-for porcelain crown lasts 10–15 years on average, and many last much longer. Avoiding ice-chewing and grinding (we can make a nightguard) extends that lifespan significantly.
No — the tooth is fully numbed for the prep visit, and most patients feel only mild sensitivity for a day or two afterward. We'll send you home with detailed aftercare instructions.
