Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdHead up Clareville Avenue and Russell Avenue to Rocky Point Road, then join the Princes Highway. Gannon Street takes you across to Unwins Bridge Road, and from there Carrington Road, Warren Road, Illawarra Road and Petersham Road bring you onto Marrickville Road. It’s 13.1 km, about 28 minutes outside peak.
Parking is on the street, along Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade right beside the clinic. Some bays are timed, so a quick look at the signs helps. The 303, 476 and 478 serve Sandringham, but reaching us by public transport needs a change, so driving is the simplest way.
Open until 8pmA 28-minute drive is easier to manage when the appointment time works for you. On Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays the clinic stays open until 8pm, so you can come after work instead of taking a morning off. Fridays and Saturdays run 9am to 3pm.
Most six-monthly visits include an exam, a scale and polish, and digital X-rays when they’re due. Booking the next one before you leave saves another phone call. See how dental check-ups work and what happens during professional teeth cleaning.
Saturday family visitsSandringham sits in the St George area, with Cook Park and Scott Park nearby for weekends outdoors. Saturday appointments are often easiest for children, and brothers and sisters can be booked one after another, which turns a 13.1 km trip into one outing rather than several.
Early visits focus on getting kids comfortable in the chair, with fluoride and fissure sealants when they help. Read about children’s dentistry, and ask about custom-fitted sports mouthguards before the season starts.
Same-visit crownsBigger treatment usually means several visits, so it helps when everything happens at one address. Dental crowns are made in-house and often fitted in the same visit, which can save Sandringham patients a second drive. For a single missing tooth or a full arch, we plan and place dental implants near Sandringham here in Dulwich Hill.
If it’s more about appearance, a consultation comes first, and the options and costs are explained before anything goes ahead. Patients often ask about teeth whitening, bonding for small chips, or dental veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has more than 25 years in practice and leads a small, friendly team at the clinic. You can meet our team or find out more about The Smile Spot before your first visit from Sandringham.
