Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdLeave Blakehurst via Stuart Street and join the Princes Highway, which carries you most of the way. Turn off at Gannon Street, then follow Unwins Bridge Road, Richardsons Crescent, Carrington Road, Warren Road, Illawarra Road and Petersham Road to Marrickville Road. It’s 12.8 km, about 26 minutes outside peak.
The last turn is into MacArthur Parade, which runs beside the clinic and has street parking, as does Marrickville Road. Some bays are timed. Public transport needs at least one change, with no direct bus or light rail, so the car is simpler.
Open until 8pmBlakehurst sits in the St George area, 18 km south of the city centre, so a dental visit is something to plan rather than squeeze in. Saturdays from 9am to 3pm and weeknights until 8pm on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday give you room to choose.
Check-ups include an exam, digital X-rays when due and a professional clean. Read about our dental check-ups and teeth cleaning. Laser dentistry is part of the care on offer here, along with gum disease treatment if you need it.
Saturday family visitsParents juggling school runs and weekend commitments can book the whole family in on a Saturday. Children are seen for check-ups, cleans and fillings, and we keep things calm and simple so they always know what’s happening next.
Kids who play contact sport are well served by custom sports mouthguards made from impressions of their teeth. Our children’s dentistry page explains a first visit and how to get young ones ready for it.
Same-visit crownsMissing a tooth or two? Read about dental implants near Blakehurst. Single implants and All-on-4 are planned and placed at our clinic, so consultations, surgery and reviews stay in one place. For a broken or weakened tooth, same-visit crowns are made in-house.
Cosmetic treatments include teeth whitening, bonding and veneers made from composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. We’ll talk through what’s realistic for your teeth at a consultation and explain costs after the exam. Payment plans and health fund claims can be discussed too.
If a tooth starts aching, call as soon as we open and our emergency dentist team will book the earliest appointment available. Get to know our team or read about The Smile Spot before your first visit.
