Dentist and office staff were great however the accounting department was not so much…read more I was originally quoted around $600 for a crown replacement. They submitted my claim to the insurance company and found that the crown did not need to be replaced and they did not get preapproval for the procedure before starting. Therefore, the insurance did not cover a huge majority of the cost. I was then build another $700 prior to the procedure and prior to knowing that the insurance was not gonna cover this. I had asked for some assistance from the dental office to help my claim with the insurance company and they could not provide me the documentation. The back-and-forth of over 20 emails for two months literally got me nowhere. I have filed a grievance and we will see where it goes from there. It's unfortunate, but all I needed was a couple pieces of documentation that they cannot easily provide.

I was going to a dentist in Carpenteria that I liked a lot for the past few years, but he recently…read moreretired and I wasn't loving the new dentist who took over his practice, so I decided to look for a new one. A good friend of mine recommended Dr. Layus and although it's a bit more of a drive for me, I only usually visit the dentist twice a year so no biggie. Let me just say, I am so very very glad I switched! Dr. Layus is such a nice guy, and he made me feel very comfortable. I felt like he was honest and didn't try to upsell me the whole time (one of the reasons I left my previous dentist). He offers Invisalign, which I am very excited about because I've been considering doing it for a couple years now. My old dentist did not do Invisalign, so that's a huge plus. I am returning in a couple weeks to do a scan for Invisalign and will hopefully be able to get started soon after! The hygienist, Tatiana, was great and very knowledgeable about airway dentistry, which was another huge plus as I have recently been learning quite a bit about airway health, and she was able to give me some really wonderful insight. The woman at the front desk, Anayi (sorry if I got the spelling wrong) was really sweet and easy to work with. Overall I loved my experience here. My one and ONLY very small complaint is just that the waiting room is really small. But it's an older building, and they have made it look really nice and updated inside. The bathroom was clean (really important to me), and the whole office was decorated cute with beach and surf photos. I forgot to grab photos at my first visit, but I will be going back in a couple weeks to do my Invisalign scan and will update my review with photos then!

Not only was Cecilia incredibly unprofessional and rude when I was a client here, advocating for myself; Dr. Layus was pushing his political rhetoric my entire 2 appts. On top of them botching my dental work that had to be fixed because they botched it the first time, and also they never completed a crown install because Cecilia didn't like that I stick up for myself or won't let them be disrespectful to their clientele, so they refused to work on me any further. Which has led me to THOUSANDS of corrective dental work and oral surgery next week. AVOID THIS DENTIST OFFICE. Entire lack of professionalism and genuine care across the board.

Everything seemed new and state of the art. Their staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and overall I had a very pleasant experience. Just this week I decided to go back in to see Dr. Hlavaty for a more in-depth procedure. A previous dentist had given me a filling in a back tooth that left a gap. For the past 5 or 6 years I have been needing to floss after every meal as to not allow food to get stuck which just kind of became my routine but all of that flossing caused damage to another tooth as well requiring a second filling. Because I have never been a huge fan of getting dental work done, I pushed it off for way too long. Dr. Hlavaty had me in and out feeling like the gap was never there. The doc and his assistant consistently checked in to make sure I was comfortable and fixed both teeth before I knew it. The process was quick and painless. I feel like in the future I will be far less hesitant to get dental work done because I know I now have a great dentist to rely on.
