Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdHead out along Fourth Avenue and Hyde Park Road to Nottinghill Road and Georges Avenue. East Street, Railway Street and Arthur Street lead to Centenary Drive, then Homebush Bay Drive puts you on the Western Motorway. Through the M4 East Tunnel you surface on Parramatta Road, and from there it’s south to Marrickville Road. Allow 29 minutes for 16.3 km.
Berala station is just 0.4 km from the centre, yet reaching us by train or bus means at least one change, so the car tends to win. Parking is on the street along Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade, which runs beside the clinic. Some bays carry time limits.
Open until 8pmShift work, school runs and long commutes make daytime appointments tricky. That’s the reason the clinic stays open until 8pm on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. On Fridays and Saturdays you can come in between 9am and 3pm.
Regular visits pick up small problems before they grow. Expect an exam, digital X-rays when due, and a scale and polish. Our pages on what happens at a check-up and cleaning and gum care go into more detail.
Saturday family visitsBringing several children in at once is easier on a Saturday, and we try to book siblings next to each other. Kids are seen for first visits, cleans, fluoride and sealants, with a calm pace for anyone who’s a little nervous.
Read more on children’s dental visits and what to expect. Whether training is at Spencer Park, Coleman Park or further afield, a custom sports mouthguard made from impressions of your child’s teeth helps protect their teeth during games.
Same-visit crownsWorried about a dark tooth, a gap or a chip? After an exam we’ll explain what’s possible, from teeth whitening and bonding to composite or E-max veneers, along with the costs, before any treatment begins.
Teeth weakened by large fillings can be protected with same-day crowns, as we make them in-house. To replace a missing tooth, see dental implants near Berala, covering single implants and All-on-4 planned in one clinic.
