Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdIt’s a fairly direct run. From Lancelot Street, join Victoria Road and then Canterbury Road, switch to New Canterbury Road, and use Kintore Street and Hercules Street to reach Marrickville Road. The drive is 9.8 km, about 20 minutes outside peak, a short hop from Canterbury-Bankstown into the Inner West.
None of the buses around Punchbowl, such as the 487 or 938, come through to the clinic, so for most people the car is the simplest option. When you arrive, park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade beside the clinic. Some bays are timed.
Open until 8pmWith Broadway Plaza, HomeCo Roselands and Bankstown Central all nearby, most errands stay close to home. A dental visit 20 minutes away needs to fit around work, so Monday, Tuesday and Thursday appointments run until 8pm, and Friday and Saturday from 9am to 3pm.
At a check-up, we look over your teeth and gums and take digital X-rays when they’re due. A professional teeth clean removes the tartar a toothbrush can’t shift, and it’s easy to book both at once.
Saturday family visitsPunchbowl Park, Mary Barry Park and Salmon Reserve nearby are where local kids can burn off energy. Saturday appointments from 9am let you book children’s visits outside school hours, and siblings can be seen one after the other.
Early visits help children get used to the chair without pressure. Read about kids’ dental care. For football, rugby league or other contact sport, a custom-fitted mouthguard is made from impressions of their teeth so it sits properly.
Same-visit crownsChipped edges, stains and worn teeth all have options. Teeth whitening and bonding are simpler starting points, and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn can change shape and colour. You’ll get a clear explanation of choices and costs after an exam.
Teeth that have cracked or lost a big filling may need a crown made in-house, often in a single visit. For missing teeth, implants and All-on-4 are planned and placed at the clinic. Read about dental implants near Punchbowl.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has over 25 years in practice, and the clinic uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays. Find out who you’ll see on our team page, or read about The Smile Spot before booking.
