Deliver honest and safe care
Honest Practices from the start has been on a mission to change how dentistry is practiced. We saw that patients were not getting the care they deserve--and doctors were often unhappy by being forced to be business people rather than clinicians. It doesn't need to be this way. Our bet was that if we can build a model based on honesty and providing safe care, both patient and doctor experience would improve.
Honest Practices is all about giving patients a high quality dental experience they can trust. We align our clinical team with patient outcomes--when you do well, our team does well.
We believe that the best dentistry happens when we practice honestly. That means you can expect direct communication with us. That means you will always be treated by a clinician who is an expert in the procedures they carry out. That means our team works tirelessly to stay up to date with the latest technology and techniques.
