Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdLinley Place and View Street bring you out to Burns Bay Road, which feeds onto Victoria Road. Turn off at Darling Street, then follow Balmain Road, Perry Street, Mary Street and James Street through to Darley Road and Foster Street before finishing on Marrickville Road. The trip is 12 km, about 25 minutes outside peak.
No bus from Linley Point comes through to us, and there’s no light rail stop or train station near the peninsula, so public transport takes at least one change. Driving is the easier choice. Once here, park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade beside the clinic, where some bays are timed.
Open until 8pmLinley Point is a small peninsula in Lane Cove, with Gladesville Shopping Centre and Lane Cove Market Square the nearest big shopping stops. A dental visit further afield works when it doesn’t clash with work, which is why our evening appointments run until 8pm three nights a week.
A regular dental exam checks for decay, gum problems and wear, with digital X-rays when due. Most people book a professional clean in the same visit, which keeps the number of trips down and the routine simple.
Saturday family visitsWeekends around Cunninghams Reach, Burns Bay Reserve and Saint Malo Reserve tend to be about getting outside. A Saturday appointment between 9am and 3pm lets the kids keep their school days clear, and siblings can be seen one after another.
First visits for little ones are kept relaxed and unhurried. Read about kids’ dentistry at our clinic. If your teenager plays rugby, hockey or another contact sport, ask about a fitted sports mouthguard made to their bite.
Same-visit crownsSome people want a brighter shade; others want a chipped edge rebuilt. We offer teeth whitening, bonding for small chips and composite or ceramic veneers, and talk through what’s realistic for your teeth before anything starts.
If a tooth has cracked or carries a big old filling, we can make a crown in our own clinic, often in a single visit. Lost a tooth? See dental implants near Linley Point for single implants and All-on-4, planned and placed here.
At 25 minutes, the drive is longer than popping down the road, so we plan treatment clearly and make each visit count. Dr Dimitrios Thanos has 25+ years in practice. Meet the team or read about The Smile Spot.
