In their words
What our patients say.
We’re proud of the relationships we’ve built with families across Kew and the inner east.
“H and his team are awesome. Always have a great experience and they've encouraged me to be more diligent and excited about caring for my teeth. Friendly, knowledgeable and professional. If you're looking for a dentist, can't recommend these guys highly enough.”
Mark BaldassoVerified Google review“Dr Harindu Rajakaruna is truly a dental delight! Instead of the uncomfortable visits to the dentist we've all been conditioned to dread, every appointment with him feels more like catching up with a good friend than sitting in a dental chair. His friendly, down-to-earth nature makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in, and his work is of the highest standard; precise, attentive, and consistently outstanding. You always leave feeling cared for, confident, and smiling brighter than when you arrived!”
JacquelynVerified Google review“Treated me with such kindness and care. Especially Dr Harindu. He explained everything in such detail and only provided me with the best patient care. Very calm and collected demeanour with still a great positive attitude to walk into the room with. The staff there were very friendly and lovely, especially Caroline and his nurse — she was great and very cool. Can't recommend this clinic enough. Definitely will be coming back a valued patient. 10/10!!!”

HICAPS on the spot
We accept all major health funds.
Your rebate is claimed at the chair — you only pay the gap. We’re not aligned with any single provider — appointments stay unrushed. Larger treatments can be spread interest-free via Afterpay.

Your first visit
Nervous about coming in? Here’s what to expect.
We see a lot of patients who’ve put dental visits off for years. There’s no judgement here — just a calmer way of getting back on track. We take the time to understand your concerns before we look at a single tooth, and our treatment philosophy is conservative: we recommend only what’s clinically needed, nothing more.
- Non-judgemental
- We listen first
- Conservative treatment
- Independent practice
