Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdBy road it’s 8.5 km, roughly 20 minutes outside peak. From Goodlet Street, work through Wilton, Belvoir and Buckingham Streets to Cleveland Street, then Abercrombie Street to Broadway. Parramatta Road, Cannon Street and Westbourne Street take you across to Crystal Street and New Canterbury Road, then onto Marrickville Road.
Without a car, walk to Central Grand Concourse, a little under a kilometre from the middle of Strawberry Hills, and catch the L1. It runs straight to Dulwich Grove and Dulwich Hill, near the clinic. Drivers can use street parking on Marrickville Road or MacArthur Parade, minding the timed bays.
Open until 8pmStrawberry Hills is a small pocket tucked between Surry Hills and Redfern, and nobody seems quite sure where the name came from. What’s certain is that Central is close, so an evening appointment is easy to reach. Patients are seen until 8pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Coming in regularly means small problems get picked up early. A typical visit includes an exam, digital X-rays when due and a scale and polish. Find out what to expect from dental check-ups at The Smile Spot and teeth cleaning.
Saturday family visitsWeekends with kids might mean Prince Alfred Park or Ward Park nearby. Saturday appointments, 9am to 3pm, let you fit the dentist in without missing school, and the L1 makes it a simple trip for young passengers who like watching the stops go by.
We look after children’s teeth from the first visit, with fluoride, fissure sealants and plain explanations along the way. Playing footy, netball or hockey? A custom sports mouthguard is moulded to their teeth for a snug fit.
Same-visit crownsWhen a tooth cracks or a big old filling gives way, a crown can protect what’s left. We make dental crowns in-house, so many are fitted the same visit. For gaps, dental implants near Strawberry Hills and All-on-4 are planned and placed at our clinic.
For appearance, there’s professional teeth whitening, bonding for small chips, and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. Every option starts with an exam, and costs are explained before you decide. Health fund claims and payment plans can be discussed with us.

Dr Dimitrios Thanos has spent more than 25 years in practice. Alongside general and preventive dentistry, the clinic uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays. Get to know our staff, or find out more about the practice before your first appointment.
