My family and I love Dr.Hayley Cox and her staff. They always make our visits smooth and calm. I can tell by the attention they give our son in every visit how much they care about my son's well-being at the dentist office. Thank you guys so much for your patience and genuine care.

Even on my 2.5 yr old son's very first visit, Dr. Cox was fantastic with him. He was in pain and had never been to a dentist before - things could have gone terribly - but instead, my son was calling out "bye Doctor, thank you doctor!". She took the time to answer all of my questions. Then after hours I needed help and advice. She got in touch with me right away. She was warm and kind and saved the day! Helped my son get relief from his pain. There is nothing more a mother could ask for. Thank you Dr. Cox!

We had a wonderful experience here from the front desk receptionist to the dental assistants to the dentist, what an exceptional team. Everyone was so kind, helpful and accommodating. The office is clean, bright and welcoming. It was my sons first dental visit and it went smoothly and put my mom heart at ease seeing how sweet everyone was with him! Highly recommend :)

My kids had their first visit at Santa Barbara Children's Dentistry and they were all very happy and excited. They can not wait to go back. My daughter who is 2 years old had her first dental visit and she was very happy. So glad we found this wonderful children office.

Dr. Haley and her amazing staff were very caring and patient with my 4 year old son. He had a great visit, can't wait for the next visit! Can't thank you enough!

Dr. Hayley and her team are great! My daughter had a tooth removed about a year ago, and I was nervous her recent dentist visit would cause her some stress or she would be uncooperative. On the contrary, the hygienist involved her in every step of the cleaning and kept it short and sweet, and we left without a single tear! To have that experience with my almost 3 year old (who has a ton of big feelings right now) was amazing, and she's already talking about when she can go back. Thank you to Dr. Hayley and her team for being so considerate and warm with my little one!

We're from out of state, but my son had a dental emergency so I reached out to Santa Barbara Children's Dentistry. They got us in that same day and the day after. Everyone was so kind, sweet, and caring. I still feel overwhelmed with the warm atmosphere from all the staff there. Dr. Hayley Cox was wonderful to us.

We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Haley! She made both my children (3yo and 1yo) feel very comfortable - my daughter even talked the rest of the day about how much fun she had! Would highly recommend SB Children's Dentistry!

I took both my young daughters (3 and 1 years old) to the dentist for the first time here. I was nervous as to how they would do because young kids and dentists/doctors usually don't go well! But the staff and Dr. Hayley Cox were so welcoming, friendly, and sweet, my daughters loved it! There were no tears and actually a lot of smiles and laughs. The office is definitely clean and professional, while being fun and welcoming to children. They got to pick out stickers and prizes when they were done, as well as a new toothbrush! We will definitely be returning every six months for cleanings and all our pediatric dentistry needs. I'm so happy I found a great dentist in Santa Barbara for my kids.

This team is just amazing with my 4 year old. They're patient, engaging, and take time to explain what's going on during checkups. I wish they were around when I was a kid!

We're leaving the city, and just want to say: WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL that we had Dr. Haley Cox as the dentist for our 4 year old! Dr. Cox Thank You Very Much!!! From teeth cleaning, cavity filling and tooth extraction... Dr. Cox provided excellent care, attention to detail, concern + kindness and availability when we had urgent needs. SB Children's dentistry has outstanding service which comes with sincere care!

What I like about Dr. Cox and her assistants is that not only are they great dentist, but they're also great with kids. It's the only place I see kids crying out the door because they don't want to leave.

We love Dr Hayley! Her office and staff has always gone above and beyond to take care of both of my son's. One who can admittedly be extremely nervous and panics. We love them all!
