About
Dr. Daniel Karni
Dr. Daniel Karni is a dentist at his family's dental practice in Kiryat Ono — the second generation to practice there. The practice has cared for patients for more than 20 years, often whole families across generations.
Practice & approach
The practice covers general and family dentistry: periodic examinations and preventive care, fillings and aesthetic restorations, root canal treatment, crowns, routine and surgical extractions, and emergency and pain treatment, with long-term care for every member of the family.
Complex cases are planned together with colleagues in other disciplines and with leading dental laboratories. Digital radiographs, intraoral scanning and clinical photography are taken in the practice for documentation and follow-up; CBCT imaging is arranged with imaging centres when needed.
At each exam, I scan and photograph the mouth and show patients exactly what I see on screen — what's healthy, what needs treatment, and why. In an age of AI, I believe we owe patients complete transparency, with no small print. I favor conservative treatment that keeps the natural tooth wherever possible, and care that brings people back for regular check-ups, not only when something hurts.
