Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdFrom Walker Street, follow Rider Boulevard and Oulton Avenue to Homebush Bay Drive, then take the Western Motorway into the M4 East Tunnel. Come out onto Parramatta Road and wind through Tebbutt Street, Hathern Street, Brown Street and Cook Street to Old Canterbury Road. It’s 14.1 km, roughly 24 minutes outside peak.
Rhodes station sits 0.2 km from the suburb centre, yet there’s no direct bus or light rail to the clinic, so public transport involves a change. Driving is the easy option. Parking is on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade, with some timed bays.
Open until 8pmRhodes is part of the Inner West, like Dulwich Hill, and the tunnel keeps the drive shorter than the distance suggests. Pop over on a Thursday evening before 8pm, or come on a Saturday between 9am and 3pm.
Your visit covers an exam, digital X-rays when they’re due and a clean. Learn what’s involved in regular dental check-ups and a professional teeth clean. If something needs attention, we’ll explain your options before any treatment starts.
Saturday family visitsA Saturday visit still leaves plenty of time for Brays Bay Reserve or Rhodes Foreshore Park once you’re home. Book children and parents one after another and everyone’s check-up is done in a single trip.
Children are seen for check-ups, cleans and fillings, explained in a way they can follow. Have a look at our kids’ dentistry page, and if they play a contact sport, ask about custom-fitted mouthguards shaped to their bite.
Same-visit crownsTeeth that are cracked or worn can be capped with dental crowns made in our clinic, often in a single visit. To replace a missing tooth, read about dental implants near Rhodes, including single implants and All-on-4, all planned in Dulwich Hill.
Brightening options include professional whitening, bonding for chips and gaps, and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. A consultation comes first, and costs are explained after the exam. Ask about payment plans and health fund claims at the clinic.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has spent more than 25 years in practice and leads the clinic. Read about The Smile Spot or meet our team before your first visit, so you know who you’ll be seeing.
