Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdFrom Hillsdale, follow Denison Street to Wentworth Avenue, then Sutherland Street and King Street into O’Riordan Street. Bourke Road, Coward Street and Kent Road take you across to Ricketty Street, and from there it’s a short run to Marrickville Road. The whole trip is 11.3 km, about 25 minutes outside peak.
Buses such as the 309, 392 and 397 run through Hillsdale, but no route comes straight to the clinic and there’s no nearby train station. Driving is the simplest way. You’ll find street parking on Marrickville Road and MacArthur Parade, with timed bays in places.
Open until 8pmEarly and late appointments both work here. On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday the clinic is open from 9am right through to 8pm, so a check-up can happen before work or after dinner, whichever suits your week better.
Your general check-up includes a careful exam and X-rays when they’re due, and we can add a professional scale and polish in the same visit. If anything needs attention, you’ll get a clear plan and costs before treatment starts.
Saturday family visitsHeffron Park is close to Hillsdale, and kids who train or play there on weekends should wear a mouthguard that actually fits. We make sports mouthguards from moulds of each child’s teeth, so they sit comfortably and stay in during play.
For younger children, first visits are short and calm, with time to look around and sit in the chair. Regular check-ups, fluoride and sealants follow as they grow. Read about dental care for kids and book a Saturday if school days are full.
Same-visit crownsA cracked or worn tooth can usually be rebuilt with a crown. Ours are produced in the clinic, so many patients have theirs fitted on the same day rather than coming back for a second appointment. See crowns made in-house.
If teeth are missing, dental implants near Hillsdale and All-on-4 are planned and placed by our team. For cosmetic changes, ask about whitening treatment, bonding or veneers at a consultation, where we’ll show you what’s possible and explain the costs.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has spent more than 25 years treating patients, and the rest of our Dulwich Hill team takes the same unhurried approach. Read more about the practice and what to expect when you come in for the first time.
