Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdHead up Anzac Parade, then turn west along Gardeners Road. Kent Road, Ricketty Street and Canal Road take you to the Princes Highway, and from there Railway Road, Gleeson Avenue and Railway Parade bring you out on Marrickville Road itself. The whole trip is 14.0 km and takes about 29 minutes outside peak.
There’s no train station close to Malabar and no bus that comes through to Dulwich Hill, so public transport means changing along the way. The car is the simpler choice. Street parking sits on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade next to the clinic, with time limits on some bays.
Open until 8pmMalabar sits towards the southern edge of the Eastern Suburbs, so most trips take a little while. Three late nights each week, plus Friday and Saturday mornings from 9am, give you a few ways to fit a visit around work without rushing up Anzac Parade.
A standard appointment covers an exam, digital X-rays when due and a scale and polish. Our routine check-ups page explains each step, and you can read about scale and clean appointments too.
Saturday family visitsSaturdays from 9am to 3pm let parents book everyone in a row and still have most of the day free for Cromwell Park, Boulevarde Reserve or a walk past Hurley Reserve. Kids are seen for first visits, fluoride, sealants and fillings when needed.
Learn about dental care for children. If your child plays a contact sport on weekends, a mouthguard made to fit their teeth is worth asking about at their next check-up.
Same-visit crownsLosing a tooth is a big decision, and a trip is easier when it’s all handled in one place. For dental implants near Malabar, planning, surgery and the final restoration happen at our Dulwich Hill clinic, with All-on-4 also available.
Crowns are made on-site, often in a single visit. For appearance, ask about whitening treatment, bonding or custom veneers. Costs are set out after an exam, along with payment plans and health fund claims.
Plenty of people in the Eastern Suburbs have a dentist nearby, so this drive needs a reason. For many it’s the late hours, the sedation choices or having implants planned with Dr Dimitrios Thanos, who has over 25 years in practice. See the people you’ll meet or learn about our clinic.
