Services
We deliver dental check-ups and cleans that are thorough, considerate, and prevention focused. Each visit includes a detailed examination, professional cleaning, and clear explanations of what we observe. Our team works gently to ensure comfort throughout the appointment. Regular hygiene visits help protect enamel, support healthy gums, and maintain confidence in your dental care. 
We believe childrens dental care is about more than routine check-ups. Our focus is on creating calm, positive experiences that help children feel familiar with the dental environment from an early age. By moving at your childs pace, we support healthy development and help establish lifelong habits in a way that feels natural. 
We deliver dental tooth fillings with an emphasis on preserving natural tooth structure and patient comfort. Addressing decay or minor damage promptly can help avoid unnecessary complexity later. Our assessments are unhurried and informative, allowing clear discussion of suitable options. Treatment is performed carefully, with attention to both function and appearance. 
Our practice focuses on the careful treatment of gum disease at all stages, with an emphasis on early detection and realistic outcomes. Gum disease is common and frequently progresses without discomfort. We provide clear guidance, conservative treatment options, and ongoing support designed to stabilise gum health and reduce the risk of further progression. 
We offer comprehensive dental implant treatment to replace missing teeth with stable, natural-feeling restorations. From initial consultation through to final crown or bridge placement, every stage is carefully managed by our experienced team. Our approach prioritises precision, patient comfort, and predictable outcomes that allow you to smile, eat, and speak with confidence. 
Dental crowns and bridges are a reliable solution we use to restore structure, strength and visual harmony to your teeth. Our approach prioritises accurate diagnosis, tailored treatment planning and high-quality materials. By addressing existing dental damage early, we help reduce the risk of future complications while supporting comfortable chewing, clear speech and lasting results. 
We deliver Full Mouth Restoration as a long-term solution for patients experiencing discomfort from missing or unstable teeth. This implant-supported approach replaces an entire dental arch with minimal surgical impact. In many cases, we secure a fixed temporary prosthesis immediately following implant placement. This allows patients to maintain everyday function while awaiting the final restoration. 
Our approach to smile makeovers focuses on combining multiple cosmetic treatments to achieve a complete transformation. We carefully plan each procedure to improve tooth shape, alignment, and overall appearance. Advanced materials and techniques are used to ensure reliable results. Every smile makeover is designed to deliver confidence through a balanced and polished outcome.

Viki Karassellos has been my dentist for many years.. she also treated my 93 year old mother with care and patience. She has a quiet but confident manner - you know youre in good hands. And indeed you are!
Professional, calm and exudes a warmth that makes you feel like shes been a friend forever!
So three years later I can still recommend Viki for all the reasons I previously wrote about.
Her new business Honest Tooth is wonderful and just what you would expect!

I visited Dr Viki Karassellos this morning and can't recommend her highly enough. Dr Viki was gentle, thorough and explained every step of my procedure which was very reassuring. The care she took was amazing. You'll be hard pressed to find a dentist in Sydney with such an excellent combination of compassion, skill and expertise.

After a tooth emergency, I was looked after both Diana and Viki on separate occassions. Like most, I'm usually not excited about a trip to the dentist, but after being looked after by the team at Honest Tooth, I feel much more comfortable with the idea. They did a fantastic job, and my teeth feel a lot better. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone!

I saw honest tooth dental had great Google reviews and decided to book in for an appointment after visiting a couple of other dentists (with extortionate prices). Really glad I had my fillings done by Viki, was really reasonably priced and such amazing service from Viki and Juan. Really comfortable whilst getting procedure done and no pain at all. Highly recommend!!

Dr Vicki has cared for me throughout a complex dental issue. Throughout this episode she exercised extreme care, integrity, and excellence in clinical judgement. She is also excellent with children. My 2yr old daughter sees her for her check ups. Dr Vicki does a great job at making the experience fun and non threatening. I highly recommend Honest Tooth Dental.

There were quite a few dentists around St Leonards, but I can highly recommend Honest Tooth and Viki to help out with any dental requirements.
Viki was awesome to deal with and made myself feel very comfortable during the check-up, she is super professional and gets the job done well! Highly recommend for anyone in the area to go here.

I highly recommend Prof Alexander Holden, and the team at Honest Tooth.
We needed a regular dentist for our young family, and have tried a couple of other practices in the area. We booked to see Alex, first to see our young boy. Alex is highly knowledgeable and his bedside manner is excellent. Our young one was comfortable throughout the visit and work I needed to be done. Alex also spent time discussing what to look out for, and tips.
We really appreciate the effort Honest Tooth go to with their patients. They are a standout!

Google Review for Dr. Turk:
Dr. Turk is the OG dentist! I came to him for a teeth cleaning, and he did it ever so gently. My previous dentist was good, dont get me wrong, but every visit felt rushed, and Id leave feeling like I was going to throw up.
Dr. Turk, on the other hand, along with his incredible assistant (Im in the process of getting her name and will update this review once I have it), made the experience calm, professional, and unbelievably comfortable.
They are hands down the best dental team Ive ever come across. Gentle, thorough, and truly exceptional at what they do. If youre looking for the best dentist in Australia, look no furtherDr. Turk is your guy!

Honest Tooth Dental were excellent. Explaining my options, advising and allowing me to choose my own treatment without judgement. Dr Viki was engaging and very pleasant. Juan on the front desk, and the assistants were cheerful and helpful. After my great experience, my partner booked her check up there as well. Highly recommend.

Viki was not only great at making me feel comfortable (despite my paralysing shame for having waited so long), but did a truly amazing job with my deep cleaning. I'm actually not embarrassed to smile for the first time in years. I still have a bit of work to do, but she has already worked miracles. Juan, the receptionist, is also very welcoming and is representative of the ethos of this practice.
It may sound sttange to say this of a dental clinic, but this place is special. Highly, highly recommended.

Also, the new clinic where Dr. Viki practices is fantastic. It offers a comfortable environment and is easily accessible, making it convenient for patients to reach.
