Dr. Kellie Houlahan, BDS (Otago)
Dentist & Owner of FLOSS
Dr. Kellie Houlahan is the co-owner of Floss Dental in Birkenhead, which she runs alongside her husband, Dan. A graduate of the University of Otago (BDS, 2007), Kellie began her career as a house surgeon at Waikato Hospital, where she gained valuable experience managing but not limited to trauma, oral cancer and TMJ.
Over the years, Kellie has worked in—and co-owned—multiple dental clinics across the Auckland region, building a strong reputation for her caring approach and clinical excellence. She has a particular talent for working with anxious patients, using her calm manner and deep experience to help people feel at ease in the dental chair.
Kellie offers a range of advanced dental services, with a special focus on intravenous (IV) sedation and high-aesthetic dentistry—perfectly blending function and beauty to achieve stunning, confidence-boosting results.
A proud local, Kellie lives on the North Shore with her two energetic boys, Cooper and Chase, and their much-loved mini schnauzer, Ninja. When she’s not at the clinic, you’ll find her keeping up with her kids’ adventures, enjoying good food, and supporting her community on the soccer field.
