Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdHead out along Bardwell Road and May Street to Darley Road, then pick up Slade Road and Hartill-Law Avenue. Homer Street carries you across to Wardell Road, and Margaret Street brings you round to MacArthur Parade beside the clinic. It’s 4.9 km, roughly 12 minutes when traffic is light.
Bardwell Park station sits less than a kilometre from the middle of the suburb, but no train or bus runs straight to our door, so public transport means a change. Most people simply drive. Park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade, and keep an eye on the timed bays.
Open until 8pmLife in this quiet corner of the St George area can still get busy, with Forest Road traffic and full weekdays. Late appointments until 8pm on three weeknights, plus Friday and Saturday mornings, give you room to book a visit without taking time off.
Each visit starts with a careful look at your teeth and gums, digital X-rays if they’re due, and a chat about anything bothering you. Our dental check-ups page has more detail, and the professional teeth cleaning page explains the scale and polish.
Saturday family visitsWith Silver Jubilee Park, Coolibah Reserve and Ron Gosling Reserve all nearby, plenty of local children spend their weekends outdoors. A Saturday slot between 9am and 3pm lets you fit a family visit around training rather than pulling anyone out of class.
Little ones can start with a relaxed first look, then move on to fluoride, sealants and small fillings when needed. Read about dentistry for children, and ask about a custom-fitted mouthguard for anyone who plays a contact sport.
Same-visit crownsA tooth that’s cracked or heavily filled may need a crown. Ours are made on site, so same-visit dental crowns can save you a second drive. For missing teeth, Dr Thanos plans and places dental implants near Bardwell Valley, including All-on-4.
If it’s the colour or shape of your smile you’d like to change, talk to us about teeth whitening, bonding or composite and E-max veneers. Options and costs are explained after an exam, and health fund claims can be discussed at the clinic.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has been practising for more than 25 years, and laser dentistry and digital X-rays are part of everyday care here. Get to know the people at The Smile Spot or read about our clinic.

Out the front on Marrickville Road, or in MacArthur Parade right next to the clinic. Some bays have time limits, so it’s worth reading the signs.

Call (02) 9569 0199 once we open and let us know it’s urgent. The team will book you into the earliest appointment available.
We do. Phone the clinic or book online, and mention anything that worries you so your first visit can be planned around it.

Yes. Single implants and All-on-4 are assessed, planned and placed at our Dulwich Hill clinic, with costs explained after your exam. Implant placement is surgery and carries risks such as pain, swelling and infection, and it is not suitable for everyone. Results vary from person to person. We talk you through the alternatives at your consultation, and you are welcome to get a second opinion.
A short drive away, open late three weeknights and on Saturdays, with parking right beside the clinic.
