Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdStart on King Street and Condamine Street, then take the Burnt Bridge Creek Deviation to Manly Road and Spit Road. Military Road and Falcon Street feed onto the Warringah Freeway, across the Harbour Bridge and along the Western Distributor, then The Crescent and Johnston Street before you continue on to Marrickville Road. Expect 23.2 km and about 43 minutes outside peak.
Buses from Manly Vale don’t run through to Dulwich Hill, and public transport needs at least one change, so driving tends to be easier. Parking is on the street: Marrickville Road out front, or MacArthur Parade beside the clinic. Watch for timed bays.
Open until 8pmWeeknight appointments until 8pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays give you time to finish the day before driving in. Saturdays, 9am to 3pm, are handy if weekdays are already full, and Friday has the same daytime hours.
A routine appointment means an exam, a professional scale and clean, and digital X-rays when they’re due. Keeping up with these visits makes it easier to spot problems early. More on check-up appointments and cleaning visits.
Saturday family visitsIf your kids play on the David Thomas Playing Fields nearby, or anywhere else on weekends, a custom sports mouthguard is worth organising before the season. It’s made from an impression of their teeth, so it fits snugly and stays put.
Children’s appointments cover first visits, check-ups, fluoride and fissure sealants, explained to parents in plain language. Saturday bookings keep school days free, with time left for King Reserve or Miller Reserve afterwards. See children’s dentistry.
Same-visit crownsConsidering a change to your smile? Options include teeth whitening, bonding and veneers in E-max, Zirkonzahn or composite. A consultation comes first to go over what suits your teeth and the costs involved, so you can decide without any pressure.
Teeth that are cracked or worn can be restored with crowns made in-house, fitted at the same appointment. If teeth are missing, single implants or All-on-4 are planned and placed at Dulwich Hill. Read about dental implants near Manly Vale.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has been in practice for more than 25 years, and the clinic uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays. You can meet the team or read more about The Smile Spot before booking your first visit from Manly Vale.
