Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Dr Sarah for over a decade and followed her when she opened her own practice, Hello Smiles. She renovated a beautiful Queenslander into a modern, calming clinic with easy parking. The reception team are always lovely, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. Dr Sarah herself is exceptional — highly skilled, switched on, and a true perfectionist. I always feel completely safe in her care. Sarah has wonderful communication and listening skills, is knowledgeable, well informed, and thoughtful in everything she does. Sarah has established a great Dental team and I would absolutely trust the other dentists at the clinic. She has thought of everything to make your dentistry experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. She truly is a ray of sunshine, and I couldn’t recommend her or Hello Smiles more highly. ✨

Fantastic experience: Really fantastic dentists and staff. I’ve dealt with Dr Vivian and Dr Tristan, both were very lovely, informative and thorough. The work they’ve done on my teeth has been the best of any dentist I’ve seen (and I’ve seen a few). Thank you!

Shaun Holstein 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Had the best experience today with Dr Sara. I had 4 fillings done today. Not once did i experience any pain or discomfort, unlike some other Dentists I’ve seen previously. She is so extremely professional and highly considerate too. It was also a bonus to be watching a hilarious movie on Netflix to make the hour long procedure seem like a dream! I highly recommend her to treat all my friends and family teeth problems from now on!

Cass Wilson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Hello Smiles is a dentistry that leaves the customer smiling. Dr Sara and team are gentle, speedy and up to date with lastest techniques in dental care and tooth paste flavours! I used to be an extremely anxious patient but now, thanks to the gentle approach to meet not only my dental needs but also my nerves, have me happily returning for my checkups. I appreciate the thoughtfulness of the team in forward planning for my needs. The high level of service, cleanliness, friendliness, exceptional services always leave me smiling.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend seeing Sara and the team at Hello Smile! We have had such an amazing experiences since seeing Sara for well over 10 years now. Such a calming and welcoming environment for children and adult of all ages, staff are always warm and welcoming on arrival and experience and expertise of Sarah and the team is simply outstanding. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Dr. Laura and the team at Hello Smiles Hawthorne are absolutely amazing! From the moment I walked in, they made me feel comfortable. Dr. Laura is gentle and understanding—especially if you're nervous about the dentist. She really listens and goes out of her way to make the experience as easy as possible.

Saira Manns 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been visiting Dr Sara at Hello Smiles for 7 years now and can honestly say she’s the best dentist I’ve ever had! I rave about her to everyone I meet - she’s so kind and caring and EXCELLENT at her job.

Robyn Martin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you Dr Sara Tabrizi for my beautiful new porcelain veneers. I couldn't be happier with them! In fact they exceeded my high expectations. The whole process from beginning to end was seamless, and I felt supported and well briefed all along the way. The process was painless too! I LOVE my new smile, Thank you so much Dr Sara Tabrizi for a wonderful job well done. I'm thrilled.

Ruby Gilbert 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Hello Smiles and Dr Vivian are amazing!! When I first started coming here I had a really bad fear of going to the dentist. I've been going to Dr Vivian for just over two years and my fear of dentists is basically gone! She is so kind and gentle and all of the staff are so welcoming too. I also recently had a bridge done for a false tooth and I highly recommend Hello Smiles for that kind of work!! The lab team have made such a realistic and flawless looking tooth. I am so so happy with how it looks and I'm so grateful.

Valentin Stefanov 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr. Sara and the team at Hello Smiles are honestly the best ever. I used to be so nerves every time I had to go to the dentist but those days are definitely gone. Dr. Sara care, professionalism and spectacular dental skills made me feel at ease right from my first appointment. Absolutely can’t recommend enough. Thank you team so much!

Alex Koefman 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m the worst patient. I always call last minute for a dental check up. Despite this character flaw, Sara always makes me feel like nothing is ever a problem and her service is impeccable and professional. Super positive vibe and the result is always 100%. Unreservedly recommend.

Tiffany Burch 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am so happy I stumbled across Hello Smiles on my search for a new dentist. Probably one of the most beautiful dental clinics I have ever been to, with the kindest staff. Dr Tristan is wonderful!

Amelia Iosefa 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Such a wonderful dentist practice and the staff are amazing! My kids see Dr Laura who makes the whole visit so comfortable and exciting for them. 10/10 recommend

J.P Cleary 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Hello Smiles on Hawthorne Rd since the practice opened. Both Tristan and Vivian have looked after my teeth, from check ups, cleaning, Invisalign and cosmetic dental. Sara treats my housemate. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. I used to dread going to the dentist, but now it’s an enjoyable experience. Even though I now live across the other side of the river, there’s no other practice I’d trust to look after my teeth.

Ryley Morton 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Such a wonderful practice. I struggled to find a dentists that I liked for years until I found Hello Smiles. I love being able to book online and the device is always super friendly. They are super knowledgeable and thorough with everything they do. The staff here do everything they can to make sure your visit is as comfortable as possible.

Sarah O'Donnell 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: What a wonderful practice! My almost 2 year old son fell over at daycare yesterday and we were advised to find a dentist for him asap. I called Hello Smiles (we hadn't been here before) and the team were able to fit us in as an emergency appointment within 30 minutes. Dr Vivian was so amazing with my son. She made him feel safe, and he even came away from the appointment saying "that was fun". Thank you! We will be moving our whole family to this practice :)

Isaac Rohit Sayal 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Tristan has one of the most gentle hands I have experienced in a dentist. He is a confident and intelligent dentist. I was in a potentially life threatening situation and if the result of that was that I got treatment from this awesome dentist, then I count it as a win. Thank you Hello Smiles team Legends!

Fantastic experience: Hello Smiles has been created to give such a welcoming, comfortable experience for their patients. From the easy parking, to the beautifully renovated building. There's even an elevator for those with young kids/prams or require wheelchair accessibility etc. Dr Sara has created such a special place and their service is outstanding. I can't wait to bring the rest of my family because I know they will love it. Can't recommend highly enough!

Fantastic experience: I've been coming to Hello Smiles since arriving in Brisbane in 2019. The staff at this clinic are extremely compassionate and demonstrate the utmost care when dealing with their clients. Dr. Tristan is a wonderful dentist, and I always feel well taken care of after my appointments. The environment at the clinic promotes a sense of ease and comfort, and they even offer streaming services with noise-cancelling headphones for more sensitive patients. I can't reccomend this practice enough :)

Fantastic experience: The best experience at the Dentist I have had! I saw Dr Sara at Hello Smiles recently for the first time and her expertise and professionalism really shines through. I also work in health and you can really tell when someone is on top of their game and really cares about what they do. The practice is a very clean and relaxing environment. Dr Sara gave me a thorough explanation of the current state of my oral health and a few things to possibly be aware of in the future (eg. I’ve never been told before that I’m probably not brushing a specific small region of my teeth properly- I’ll be sure to nail it now!). I also took my young son in with me to observe and Dr Sara made him feel very comfortable and included him in the whole process. He loved it, now he wants to go back! I highly recommend Hello Smiles and Dr Sara as a great Dentist in the Bulimba/ Balmoral/ Hawthorne area.

Kate Cook 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Everything about the Hello Smiles experience, from the truly beautiful, design of the practice through to the caring and compassionate expertise provided by Sara and her team, leave you feeling like you've spent your day at a luxury spa, not the dentist! Their passion not only for dentistry but for keeping their clients relaxed and at ease shines through in every detail, from the high tech audio-visual movie experience through to their suite of informative brochures (and plush toys to provide comfort)! As someone who has always felt anxious about visiting the dentist, Sara's kind and supportive approach instantly put me at ease. For the dentist visit you'll actually look forward to, look no further than Sara and her team at Hello Smiles.

Fantastic experience: Amazing dental practice and staff!! Sara is really lovely. I had a small dental emergency and I was in that day. I like how the staff asked what was wrong before saying we can't fit you in. My regular dentist just told me they are fully booked so will definitely be going here from now on! Price was very reasonable too! Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: Had a full check and clean with Dr Sara. The practice is beautifully presented and I was made feel welcome from the start. The treatment was very comprehensive, from inspecting my teeth, photo's (which were all shown and explained to me) and xrays. I also had the best clean I've ever had! Can't recommend highly enough

Fantastic experience: There is no rating high enough for the incredible service offered to me at Hello Smiles! Not only did they fit me in last minute when my wisdom tooth was causing me all kinds of grief, but Emily was incredibly kind and helpful when making the booking and Dr. Tristan was friendly, efficient and informative when it came time for my appointment. Safe to say I won't be going anywhere! :)

Fantastic experience: After a string of subpar experiences with various dentists I decided to give Hello Smiles a visit following strong recommendations from friends. My only regret is not having been here sooner! Dr Sara Tabrizi and her staff ensured that my visit was pleasant and as pain-free as possible from start to finish. The facilities and the environment created by the staff is outstanding and I left there actually looking forward to my next appointment. Cannot recommend highly enough.
