The dental assistants make my teeth sparkle with thorough cleanings and are amicable. Dr. Blake is a highly skilled dentist. He is knowledgeable, thorough, takes the time and listens to his patients. He is arguably the best dentist in town. The ambiance and design of the office is absolutely gorgeous. A historic building, it is stunning in every way. I could just sit in the waiting room and read all day it's so lovely. Decked with orchids, a fantastic aroma from a warming candle, sparkling water and a Nespresso machine, the waiting room is divine. Some of the dental "rooms"(?) even contain a living wall lush with verdant plants for a beautiful and relaxing environment. Don't walk, run those chompers straight into Dr.Blake's office!

However, when you try to call them it seems like it gets sent to a call center. The call center has failed to cancel, reschedule, or get in touch with the office.

You can't schedule in advance more than a few weeks out for a some reason, they never answer the phone, and there's some hard sell procedure on every visit to try to extract more money from you. They are aggressive on billing, they actually brought the credit card machine into the room during my treatment to pay *during* my filling. Other times they call and email over and over to collect bills I already paid. They won't do a cleaning and exam on the same visit, you have to do 2 separate appointments and they won't do a cleaning unless you sit through the hard sell and agree to the procedures they want to do. They got annoyed when I asked a question about what they wanted to do to my mouth and said I shouldn't ask questions because it "affects the quality of care they can provide" . Um no, answering patients' questions is exactly how you DO provide quality care, not the other way round. No one ever answers the phone so you have to ask questions during the appointment but they just want to crank your teeth into dollars and keep quiet I guess. Had to go back 2 more times to get a filling smoothed out because they were so rushed the filling was lumpy and rough and I couldn't get floss around it. They were annoyed with me that they did crappy work to begin with. I stopped going here after that. It's a drill-mill, good luck.

    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!

    DO NOT COME HERE. I tried to give them multiple chances to rectify - make things right…read more I will be reporting to the dental board & BBB, AGAIN. 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.

    I saw Dr. Hlavaty for the first time for a cleaning 6 months ago after my regular dentist closed…read moretheir doors. I was immediately impressed with the how clean and comfortable the office was. 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.

    Wow-- quality care, no BS upselling (unless you ask for it), wonderful staff who are friendly and…read moreknowledgeable. I had a lot of dental work done, and I was so happy with the quality of Dr. Hlavaty's work. I appreciate their honesty, integrity, and professionalism! I wish they took my insurance, but they are able to submit claims on my behalf. I've had crazy experiences with dental offices in SB in the past, and this office has got me feeling a lot more positive about ringing quality care out here.

    Unnecessary treatments, no numbing application was applied for my veneer when getting it put on,…read morereally high-end prices I decided to go here because I saw good reviews on here. I will say I have had no issues with the staff and they've all been very kind even doctor Denny as well no issues as far as hospitality. In fact, I loved everyone there. As far as the appointments, though, something was off and a little fishy. He had said one tooth had too many fillings and it needed a veneer so I did that and it was a huge amount of money. I think it was around $800. After that I had problems with the tooth and he said it could've been a hairline fracture or it could need a cap and he was ready to schedule an appointment for that. Not only that is he pointed out that I had about three teeth with cavities in it. I also asked him to shave down my teeth and some areas from some bad fillings. I had gotten previously from a different dentist and he never did that for me. I decided to go to Kendall Rhodes associates. They didn't find any of the cavities. There was nothing wrong with the tooth that he wanted to fix a hairline fracture for. Not only that is on a very first appointment the dentist smooth out my fillings without me having to ask, she knows it and said how terrible and just went into it. I'm blown away. I want to believe that this is a good dentist and that money isn't a contributing factor to the decisions he made on my teeth. But I'm having a really hard time justifying all the money that I've spent. I'm very thankful I went to another dentist where I feel like they aren't just trying to milk my money.

    Dr. Denny and his staff are amazing. We always have a great experience with them, and that includes…read moreall areas: surgery/serious stuff, cleaning, and billing.
