Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdFrom Thompson Lane, turn onto Kings Road and follow Great North Road to Parramatta Road. Turn off onto Tebbutt Street, then Hathern Street and Brown Street carry you on towards Marrickville Road. Over 5.8 km, the drive takes about 13 minutes outside peak.
Buses from Five Dock don’t run straight to us, so public transport means at least one change. For most Five Dock patients, the car is the simpler choice. Street parking is available on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade beside the clinic, though some bays are timed.
Open until 8pmA 13-minute drive is easiest when the roads are quieter. Evening appointments, until 8pm on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, let you travel once the peak has eased. On Friday and Saturday the clinic is open from 9am to 3pm.
Regular visits can help us pick up small problems early. Each one includes an exam, digital X-rays when due and a clean to remove plaque and tartar. Learn more about general check-ups and teeth cleaning appointments.
Saturday family visitsFive Dock has plenty of open space, from Five Dock Park to Croker Park and Fred Kelly Reserve. If your children play weekend sport there, a Saturday appointment after the game keeps school days free. First visits are friendly and short, and parents are welcome to stay close.
Ask about mouthguards made for sport, taken from a mould of your child’s teeth for a snug, comfortable fit. Our children’s dental services also cover check-ups, fluoride, fissure sealants and fillings as they grow, from the very first visit onwards.
Same-visit crownsImplant treatment involves several appointments, so it helps to have everything in one place. Consultations, single implants and All-on-4 are all planned and placed at The Smile Spot. Read more about dental implants near Five Dock and our in-house dental crowns.
Would you like a brighter or more even smile? Start with a chat about teeth whitening, bonding or E-max, Zirkonzahn and composite veneers. We explain your options and costs after an exam, and health fund claims and payment plans can be discussed.
Thirteen minutes gets you to a clinic led by Dr Dimitrios Thanos, with more than 25 years in practice, laser dentistry and digital X-rays. Meet our Dulwich Hill team or read about The Smile Spot before you book.
