Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdBy car, head out via Carlisle, Elswick and Regent Streets, then take Flood Street down to Parramatta Road. Cross onto Old Canterbury Road and finish via Toothill Street. It’s 3.7 km, roughly 9 minutes outside peak. Street parking is on Marrickville Road and MacArthur Parade, though some bays are timed.
Prefer to leave the car at home? Hop on the L1 at Leichhardt North, Hawthorne or Marion and ride south to Dulwich Grove or Dulwich Hill, both a short walk from the clinic. The 445 bus also runs between Leichhardt and our door.
Open until 8pmPlenty of people in Leichhardt work across the city or along Norton Street, so a mid-morning appointment isn’t always realistic. Our late finishes on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mean you can come once the working day wraps up, and Friday and Saturday run 9am to 3pm.
A regular visit includes an exam, a clean and digital X-rays when they’re due, so small problems are found early, and Dr Thanos will talk you through anything he notices. Find out what happens at dental check-ups and during a professional teeth clean.
Saturday family visitsBetween Pioneers Memorial Park, Ibrox Park and Marr Reserve, Leichhardt kids get plenty of time outdoors, and that sometimes means a knock to the teeth. Saturday appointments let you fit a check-up around the weekend game without pulling anyone out of school.
From a toddler’s first look to fissure sealants for older kids, our children’s dentistry aims to keep visits relaxed. For anyone in a contact sport, a custom sports mouthguard is moulded to their own teeth.
Same-visit crownsSome patients want a brighter shade before an event, others want a worn or chipped tooth tidied up. Options include teeth whitening, bonding and composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn veneers. An exam comes first, so costs and choices are clear before you decide.
Cracked or heavily filled teeth can often be saved with same-visit crowns made right here in the clinic. Where a tooth is lost, Dr Thanos can talk you through dental implants near Leichhardt, including All-on-4 for a full arch.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has more than 25 years in practice, and the clinic uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays day to day. You can meet the team before your first appointment, or read more about The Smile Spot.
