Services
Check-Up & Clean Our dental check-up and clean service is designed to maintain healthy teeth and gums while preventing future issues. We take time to perform careful assessments, remove buildup that daily brushing cannot, and monitor early changes. Care is delivered in a relaxed environment where questions are welcomed. Our priority is informed, comfortable care that supports ongoing oral wellbeing.
Kids Dentistry Our kids dental care is designed to feel clear, supportive and thoughtful for both children and parents. We use a gentle approach that encourages comfort and trust, while offering practical guidance that supports healthy habits. Early visits allow us to monitor growth, address concerns promptly, and build confidence over time.
Dental Tooth Filling Our dental tooth filling service focuses on early intervention to repair teeth affected by decay or small defects. A timely filling can restore strength, reduce discomfort, and protect against further damage. We take a calm, transparent approach, ensuring each step is clearly explained. Recommendations are always based on careful clinical judgement.
Gum Disease Treatment Our gum disease treatment is guided by careful assessment and a strong emphasis on prevention and stability. As gum disease can progress quietly, early evaluation plays an important role in protecting the teeth and supporting structures. We take time to explain our findings and recommend treatment that is proportionate, conservative where possible, and tailored to individual needs.
Dental Implants Our dental implant service replaces missing teeth with secure, permanent restorations that closely replicate natural dentition. We manage the entire process, including assessment, implant placement, healing review, and final restoration. This structured approach supports predictable results, improved oral function, and lasting comfort when eating, speaking, and smiling.
Crowns & Bridges Our practice delivers high-quality dental crowns and bridges designed to rebuild compromised smiles with precision and care. We focus on protecting weakened teeth, replacing missing teeth and restoring everyday oral function. Each treatment is planned around your individual dental needs to achieve durable, aesthetically balanced outcomes that support comfort, confidence and long-term dental stability.
Full Mouth Restoration Our Full Mouth Restoration service is tailored for patients requiring full-arch dental rehabilitation. This treatment uses four or more implants to support a complete restoration with minimal surgical intervention. In most cases, a fixed temporary prosthesis is fitted immediately after implant placement. This allows patients to speak and eat comfortably during the healing phase.
Smile Makeover We deliver professional smile makeover solutions that enhance both appearance and dental harmony. Our service integrates multiple cosmetic treatments to correct aesthetic concerns and restore balance to the smile. Each treatment plan is individually designed, ensuring outcomes that look natural and feel comfortable. We remain focused on achieving results that support long-term oral health.

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.

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.

They prioritize our wellbeing, offering personalized, compassionate service that makes every appointment a positive experience.

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!

Juan checked me in and set up next my appointment quickly and smoothly. My dentist Vikki provided a very thorough check up and made the experience enjoyable. She answered all of my questions and gave me some tips and education for teeth whitening

Highly recommend. Superb quality and patient care. My four year old had a tooth fracture which required removal, Dr Viki was able to keep him still through the whole procedure and talked him through what was happening so that he wouldn't have a bad association with loosing a tooth earlier than expected. Her work is fantastic, we had no swallowed face in the next day and no pain. Parient care is also outstanding, my son keeps asking when Viki is going to take his other teeth out.
I used to be anxious about taking an active child to the dentist but the team at Honest Tooth put that at ease

As an extremely apprehensive dental patient, I have nothing but praise for the compassion and care and meticulous dental treatment given to me by both Dr. Carlos Turk and Dr. Viki Karassellos at Honest Tooth Dental Care.

As a child and throughout my adult years, I've found that a local anaesthetic was always far more unnerving than what was promised to be 'just a tiny mosquito bite' and so I was absolutely amazed at the adeptness of Dr Carlos to give me my first ever, virtually pain-free local injection: And I was beginning to feel far more relaxed in a dental chair than I had ever been previously.

Both dentists were always prompt, friendly and of special importance to me, totally focused on and dedicated to providing the best possible dental treatment.

Their receptionists and assistants were also delightful and totally focused on their responsibilities.

Recently after I bought a loaf of bread at our local farmers' market, the seller said to me 'You have such a beautiful smile.' After literally years of stupid sheepish grins, his compliment gave me such unbelievable joy.

I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending the excellent dental treatment of both Dr Carlos and Dr. Viki to anyone who is looking for truly ethical and highly competent oral healthcare.

Best Dentist, Assistants, and Front Office Guru in Australia. After decades of dental work elsewhere, I wish I had found Viki and Juan and team years sooner. My NSGHS daughter is also thrilled, and that is a fantastic 5+ Star ********* review too.

I have been coming here for a year now and did wisdom tooth removal as well as a regular checkup. They are so nice and Dr. Viki is amazing. They are so good that I am bringing my daughter for her first checkup here and she is already excited!

I have known Dr. Viki for a long time, and I can confidently say that she is an exceptional professional. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need. Not only is she skilled and knowledgeable, but she also genuinely cares about her patients' well-being.
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.

Had a bit of emergency and saw the dentist the same day. They were fantastic and so patient and understanding as I am a very anxious patient especially around needles. They took the time to put me at ease as well as explain everything and go through the treatment, cost etc before we begun. Highly recommended. Thank you!

My Dentist St Leonards practice, understand my needs and my children needs and are able to guide us to make informed decisions about our treatment. They are honest and reliable. My family and I have seen Dr. Arcila since 2018 and her professional expertise makes me feel confident about visiting this practice. Highly recommended!

I am so grateful to Dr Turk and everyone that works at My Dentist. Exceptional dentistry, fantastic for dental phobics, my teeth are great, now. They give the phrase 'going the extra mile' new meaning. Could not recommend a better service!!!

The team here fixed my teeth which were in poor shape after I had been avoiding the dentist for many years due to needle anxiety. The procedures included a tooth extraction, bone graft, implant, cavities and cleaning. Dr Diana Arcila did most of the work apart from a couple of cavities which Carlos did initially. All procedures were completed with zero issues and the team always makes sure to check in with you the following day after any major work, which is a welcome and thoughtful service.

I couldnt be happier with the work that Diana has done, she is excellent at making you feel comfortable and is very gentle with the local anaesthesia; its safe to say that she has successfully helped me get over my fear of dentists.

I look forward to keeping my teeth healthy with the help of Dr Diana for many years to come.

Thank you for keeping me smiling.
