Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdLeave Sandy Point via Bingara Drive and St George Crescent, then follow Heathcote Road to the M5 Motorway. From Wolli Avenue, Bray Avenue and Hartill-Law Avenue lead to Homer Street, Wardell Road and Margaret Street, finishing at MacArthur Parade right beside the clinic.
On a map we’re only 15.9 km away in a straight line, but the road trip is 29.5 km because you loop out via Heathcote Road. Allow about 44 minutes outside peak. East Hills station is 1.7 km away, yet public transport to us needs a change. Park in MacArthur Parade or on Marrickville Road, watching for timed bays.
Open until 8pmForty-odd minutes is a fair drive for a routine visit, so it pays to plan it. A late appointment until 8pm on Monday, Tuesday or Thursday, or a Saturday morning, means you’re not squeezing the trip into a working day.
Your check-up covers an exam, digital X-rays when due and a professional clean, with time to ask questions. Booking the next one before you head home keeps things simple. Find out about regular dental check-ups and cleans and scale-and-polish visits.
Saturday family visitsFamilies here live close to the water, with Alan Ashton Foreshore Reserve and Sandy Point Reserve nearby. On Saturdays we open 9am to 3pm, so the kids can have their check-ups in one block and you’re home in time for the afternoon.
Children’s visits start gently, with plenty of explanation, then move on to fluoride and fissure sealants when useful. If they play contact sport, ask about a guard made from impressions of their teeth. See children’s dentistry and custom mouthguards.
Same-visit crownsWhen the drive is long, fewer appointments help. Crowns are made in-house, so many are fitted at the same visit, and dental implants near Sandy Point are planned and placed at the clinic, whether it’s one tooth or a full arch with All-on-4.
Thinking about appearance too? Ask about teeth whitening, bonding and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn, starting with a consultation. Costs are explained after your exam, and payment plans or health fund claims can be discussed with the front desk.
