Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdLeave via Childs Road and Governor Macquarie Drive, then take Newbridge Road, Milperra Road and The River Road up to the M5 Motorway. Exit at Wolli Avenue and follow Bray Avenue, Hartill-Law Avenue, Homer Street, Wardell Road and Margaret Street, then on to Marrickville Road. Allow about 35 minutes outside peak for the 21 km.
There’s no train station close to the centre of Chipping Norton, and no bus runs to the clinic, so public transport means changing at least once. The car is far simpler. Park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade next door, minding any timed bays.
Open until 8pmMotorway access is the reason this trip works. Book an evening slot on a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday and the drive is usually calmer than at five o’clock. If weekends suit better, Saturday sessions run 9am to 3pm.
At each visit Dr Thanos checks teeth and gums, takes digital X-rays when they’re due and talks you through anything he finds. Read up on routine dental check-ups and hygiene cleans before your first appointment.
Saturday family visitsWebster Park, Fairall Park and Wendlebury Park all sit close to the centre, and weekends tend to revolve around them. A Saturday morning appointment slots in before the afternoon games, and siblings can be booked together.
We see children from their very first visit, with sealants and fluoride to protect new teeth. Anyone playing a contact sport should wear a mouthguard that actually fits. Find out about children’s dentistry and custom mouthguards.
Same-visit crownsBroken teeth, worn fillings and old crowns are among the most common reasons people call. Because crowns are made at the clinic, a same-day dental crown is often possible, so you aren’t driving back the following week.
For appearance, options include professional whitening, bonding and veneers in composite or E-max. If teeth are missing, dental implants near Chipping Norton and All-on-4 are planned in-house, with costs explained after your exam.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has been in practice for over 25 years, and he leads a small team who get to know you over time. Take a moment to meet the team and read about our clinic.
