Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdWalk east to the Central Grand Concourse stop and board the L1. It runs straight to Dulwich Grove and Dulwich Hill, each a few minutes’ walk from the clinic, so there’s no need to change. If parking near home is tight, it saves moving the car at all.
If you’d rather drive, follow Abercrombie Street up to Broadway, continue onto Parramatta Road, then take Cannon, Westbourne and Crystal Streets to New Canterbury Road and Wardell Road before turning onto Marrickville Road. It’s 7.2 km, roughly 16 minutes outside peak. Street parking is on Marrickville Road and MacArthur Parade, with some timed bays.
Open until 8pmChippendale sits between Broadway and Cleveland Street, with Central on one side and the University of Sydney on the other, so days here can be packed. Late Monday, Tuesday and Thursday appointments until 8pm help, and Friday and Saturday run 9am to 3pm.
During your dental check-up we examine your teeth and gums and take digital X-rays when due. Finish with a teeth clean and polish, which removes tartar and the light stains that build up between visits.
Saturday family visitsA Saturday morning appointment leaves the school week alone, and you can pair the trip with a play at Chippendale Green or Peace Park afterwards. We keep a child’s earliest visits short so they can get to know the chair, then add sealants or fluoride as their teeth come through.
Young athletes playing contact sport should wear a mouthguard moulded to their teeth. We take an impression and make each one individually. Ask us about made-to-fit sports mouthguards, or read about children’s dentistry at The Smile Spot.
Same-visit crownsFrom a dull shade to an uneven front tooth, there’s usually more than one way forward. We offer teeth whitening treatment, bonding and E-max, Zirkonzahn or composite veneers. After an exam, we explain each option and its cost so you can decide in your own time.
Cracked teeth can often be capped with crowns we make on site, frequently in the same appointment. For missing teeth, single implants and All-on-4 are planned and placed by our own team. Read more about dental implants near Chippendale.

Dr Dimitrios Thanos has practised for more than 25 years, and the clinic uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays day to day, with crowns made on site. Meet the dental team and read about our clinic before booking.
