Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdStart on Connells Point Road and Woniora Road, then Railway Parade and Treacy Street take you to Forest Road. Preddys Road and New Illawarra Road lead to Bexley Road and Slade Road, and from there you continue onto Marrickville Road. It’s 11.4 km, roughly 26 minutes outside peak.
Allawah and Hurstville stations are close by, though public transport to the clinic still means at least one change, and none of the local buses come through. The drive is the simpler option. Park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade, minding the timed bays.
Open until 8pmIf your day runs through Hurstville Central or Westfield Hurstville, there’s often little room for a daytime appointment further away. Three evenings a week the clinic stays open to 8pm: Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday run 9am to 3pm, and Wednesday and Sunday are closed.
Booking a dental exam regularly helps track fillings, gums and wear over time. Add a scale and clean to the same appointment to lift tartar and staining, with digital X-rays when they’re due.
Saturday family visitsPogson Park, Taunton Reserve and Ma’anshan Friendship Park are close by for weekend kick-abouts and bike rides. Saturday appointments from 9am mean children’s check-ups don’t clash with school, and brothers and sisters can come in together.
First visits are kept calm, and each step is explained in kid-friendly terms. See dentistry for children for what to expect. Junior league, touch or basketball players can be fitted with a mouthguard made from impressions of their teeth.
Same-visit crownsA lighter shade, a repaired chip or a more even smile line are all common requests. We offer professional teeth whitening, bonding and E-max or Zirkonzahn veneers, and explain what’s realistic for your teeth after an exam.
When a tooth is cracked or worn down, we can make a same-visit crown in-house. For gaps left by missing teeth, read about dental implants near South Hurstville, including All-on-4. Costs are discussed before treatment begins, and payment plans can be arranged at the clinic.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos has spent more than 25 years in practice. Families can keep check-ups, kids’ care and implants in one place rather than splitting them up. Get to know the team, or read about The Smile Spot and the clinic on Marrickville Road.
