I can't say enough about how every single staff member was attentive, friendly, and welcoming. All fazes of treatment were explained to me, and my 6 year old.

Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. We love our new children's dentist office and staff.

For years, I was told I needed braces because of an extra tooth on my lower row--what I always…read morecalled my "shark tooth." It never felt urgent, so I kept putting it off. Then my top teeth started shifting and caving in a bit, and I knew it was time. I was referred to Dr. Ferris by friends who absolutely raved about him. I'll admit, I was a little skeptical going in--I assumed they'd recommend pulling the tooth like others had suggested. But instead, he recommended Invisalign. It honestly sounded too good to be true, but I decided to go for it. Now, I have a straight smile--no shark tooth--and while I thought I was happy with my smile before, I had no idea how much better it could be. My teeth are straighter than I ever imagined, and I truly couldn't be happier with the results. What really stood out, though, was the entire experience. Dr. Ferris has clearly created something special with his team. From the moment you walk in, the energy is different--welcoming, upbeat, and genuinely positive. Every single person I interacted with was not only professional, but truly kind and engaging. You never feel rushed, you feel taken care of. The level of customer service is exceptional. They remember you, they communicate clearly, they make the process easy, and somehow turn what you'd normally expect to be a purely clinical, in-and-out appointment into something genuinely enjoyable. It's organized, efficient, and still feels warm and personal--which is a rare combination. The office itself is beautiful--clean, modern, almost spa-like--but it's really the people that make it stand out. There's a sense that everyone enjoys being there, and it shows in how they treat their patients. I truly can't recommend Dr. Ferris and his incredible team enough. Professional, fun, welcoming, and results that speak for themselves.

My daughter went to Dr. Lyman for her first ever appointment. His equipment dates back to the sixties and he is ultra conservative. After her check up he told me she had 7 cavities and needed caps on her teeth. She would need to be put under for the procedure. The cost was ridiculous even after insurance. I decided to get a second opinion because something in my gut told me too... I got a second opinion and my daughter only had one cavity, they gave her a little laughing gas to relax her and we were out in less than an hour and for less than 200 with insurance.

Dr. Munoz is my hero!…read more I was visiting Santa Barbara for a few days, and late afternoon on a Friday, a cap on my front tooth came off. I'd had it for more than 20 years, so of course, it had to come off when I was out of town. After looking up dentists who were open (with good reviews!), I called Kendall, Rohde & Associates, and was informed I could come in. Dr. Munoz could sense that certain things bothered me (e.g. the sound of some devices), so she'd suggested I put in headphones as a distraction. I am so grateful to Dr. Munoz and the team for accommodating me on such short notice and for fixing my front tooth! It would have otherwise been a very stressful and uncomfortable weekend. 2025: 22/100
