Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdFrom Shaftesbury Street, go via Andover Street and Railway Parade to Lily Street and Forest Road. Preddys Road connects you to New Illawarra Road and Bexley Road, then Slade Road, Hartill-Law Avenue and Homer Street lead to Wardell Road and on to Marrickville Road. The 10.3 km trip takes around 23 minutes outside peak.
Carlton station is close to the suburb’s centre, with Allawah not far away either, but no train or bus reaches the clinic without a change. For most visits, driving makes more sense. Street parking is on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade, and some bays are timed.
Open until 8pmCarlton straddles the line between Georges River and Bayside councils, in the St George area. Wherever your week takes you, a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday evening appointment until 8pm can save taking time off. Friday and Saturday sessions run 9am to 3pm.
Routine visits include an exam, X-rays when due and a professional clean, and we’ll explain anything we find in plain terms. Learn more about routine dental check-ups and scale and clean visits.
Saturday family visitsTiley Reserve, Joy Mead Park and Anglo Square are close to Carlton’s centre, handy for a run around once a Saturday check-up is done. Our Saturday hours finish at 3pm, which leaves the afternoon free.
Kids’ visits cover first check-ups, fluoride, fissure sealants and the odd knock from play. See our dentistry for children, and if your child plays a contact sport, ask about a mouthguard made to fit their teeth.
Same-visit crownsBroken or worn teeth can often be rebuilt with an in-house crown, made here so you may not need a second visit. Lost a tooth? Our dental implants near Carlton page explains single implants and All-on-4.
On the cosmetic side, teeth whitening, bonding and veneers in composite or ceramic can address stains, chips or small gaps. We’ll go through costs after your exam, along with payment plans and health fund claims.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos, our principal dentist, has more than 25 years in practice. Digital X-rays and laser dentistry are part of everyday care. Meet the people behind the clinic, or read about The Smile Spot.
