504 Marrickville RdFrom Heeley Street, join Glenmore Road and Oxford Street, then turn down South Dowling Street. Fitzroy Street, Foveaux Street and Eddy Avenue take you past Central to Pitt and George Streets, and Broadway, Parramatta Road and Cannon Street lead on to Marrickville Road. The trip is 10.6 km, about 25 minutes outside peak.
Without a car, the nearest L1 stop is Central Grand Concourse, just under two kilometres from Paddington, and the L1 line runs to Dulwich Grove near the clinic. Drivers can use street parking on Marrickville Road or MacArthur Parade, where some bays are timed.
Open until 8pmOxford Street and the city grid can slow things down in peak hour, so an evening booking makes the trip easier. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday sessions finish at 8pm. Friday and Saturday appointments start at 9am and wrap up by 3pm.
We’ll check your teeth and gums, take digital X-rays when they’re due and finish with a clean. Here’s more on check-up appointments and cleaning and polishing, so you know what each visit involves.
Saturday family visitsPaddington Reservoir Gardens and nearby Gugara Park are handy for a weekend outing, and a Saturday dental visit can be planned around them. Saturday hours run from 9am to 3pm, which saves taking children out of class.
Children start with an easy first visit and progress to cleans, fluoride and fissure sealants as they grow. Read about kids’ dental care, and if they’re into footy or soccer, ask about a custom mouthguard shaped to their teeth.
Same-visit crownsSome people want whiter teeth, others want a chip or worn edge rebuilt. A consultation explains whitening, bonding and veneers in E-max, Zirkonzahn or composite, along with the costs, once your teeth have been examined.
Same-visit crowns are often possible because they’re made in-house. For missing teeth, read about dental implants near Paddington, with single implants and All-on-4 planned and placed by Dr Thanos.
With more than 25 years in practice, Dr Dimitrios Thanos keeps your plan, from check-ups to implants, in one Dulwich Hill clinic. Meet our team and learn about The Smile Spot before your visit.
