Services
We offer comprehensive check-ups and cleans that prioritise accuracy, prevention, and patient comfort. During each visit, we assess your overall oral health, gently clean your teeth, and look for early signs of wear or inflammation. Our clinicians explain everything in plain language. This measured approach helps reduce the need for complex treatment later.
Our goal is to make dental visits a calm and familiar experience for children as they grow. We focus on gentle care, clear explanations and unhurried appointments that respect your childs comfort. This approach supports early habit-building and allows parents to feel confident and informed at every stage.
We provide dental tooth fillings to address decay or minor damage and relieve discomfort efficiently. Our approach is calm and measured, with a strong focus on comfort, transparency, and preserving long-term oral health. Early treatment helps prevent worsening pain and avoids more complex procedures later. Each assessment is thorough, and recommendations are explained clearly.
We provide comprehensive care for gum disease with an emphasis on stabilisation and ongoing maintenance. Symptoms may be mild or unnoticed in the early stages, which is why assessment is important. Treatment recommendations are made thoughtfully, based on clinical findings, and supported by clear explanations to help patients feel informed and confident.
We provide permanent tooth replacement through carefully planned dental implant treatment designed to restore comfort, function, and appearance. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, we deliver complete implant care from assessment to restoration. Our focus is creating secure, natural-looking results that support confident eating, speaking, and long-term oral health.
We restore smiles using expertly crafted dental crowns and bridges that are designed for durability and a seamless appearance. Each restoration is carefully planned to reinforce damaged teeth or replace missing ones while maintaining natural function. Our focus extends beyond appearance to ensure long-term protection, stability and ongoing support for your oral health.
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.
We offer customised smile makeovers that address a wide range of cosmetic dental concerns in one cohesive plan. By combining modern cosmetic techniques, we improve the colour, shape, alignment, and structure of teeth. Our experienced team focuses on precision and comfort throughout the process. The result is a natural-looking smile designed to enhance confidence.

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 definitely recommend Viki and her team at Honest Dental Care.
My current dentist for over 25 years suddenly retired on us, causing me a little stress trying to find someone appropriate.
(Visiting a dentist isn't the most pleasurable thing to do)
I am Extremely happy to find Viki, she is professional, extremely thorough and very friendly.
Made me feel comfortable straight away, explained every single procedure clearly and gave me really good advice.
Now I know why they have these amazing 5-star reviews, I'm so pleased to find my new dentist moving forward.
Thank you Viki & team for your wonderful service.

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.

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!!

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.

Very happy with the whole process of getting a crown, from the initial visit to the temporary crown being inserted and then the permanent crown being implanted. My dentist, Carlos, was very reassuring throughout, especially for me who has a level of anxiety about dental visits. All other staff were wonderful too. I also appreciated the phone call offering me an earlier appointment when an availability opened up. I highly recommend this dental practice.
