Church Street and Concord Road lead to Homebush Bay Drive, where you join the Western Motorway and the M4 East Tunnel before Parramatta Road and on to Marrickville Road. It’s 24.4 km, around 42 minutes outside peak.
Cheltenham station is 0.2 km from the suburb centre, and the Transport for NSW trip planner shows current train and bus options. Arriving by car, you’ll find street parking on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade beside the clinic, with some timed bays.
Open until 8pmA Thursday evening appointment can be easier than taking time off. The clinic is open until 8pm on Thursdays, as well as Mondays and Tuesdays, and from 9am to 3pm on Fridays and Saturdays, so there’s usually a time that works around your job.
At each routine visit you’ll have an exam and a professional clean, with digital X-rays when they’re due. Learn more about dental check-ups and hygiene and cleaning visits if it’s been a while since your last one.
Saturday family visitsFirst visits are kept relaxed so children get comfortable in the chair. From there it’s regular check-ups, fluoride and fissure sealants as needed. Saturday times keep school days clear and leave the afternoon for Cheltenham Park or Booth Park nearby. Read about children’s dentistry.
Teenagers who play sport can protect their teeth with custom-made sports mouthguards, shaped from an impression of their own bite so they fit snugly and don’t slip during a match. One can be made in time for the start of the season.
Same-visit crownsAsk about teeth whitening, bonding or E-max, Zirkonzahn or composite veneers if you’d like to change the colour or shape of your teeth. Each starts with a consultation covering the options and what they cost.
Broken teeth can be restored with dental crowns made on site, fitted at the same visit. For missing teeth, single implants and All-on-4 are planned and placed by our team. See dental implants near Cheltenham.
