Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdThe L1 is the simplest way in. Hop on at Waratah Mills or Lewisham West and ride to Dulwich Grove or Dulwich Hill, then walk a few minutes to Marrickville Road. No bus runs straight here from Summer Hill, so the tram is the one to use if you’re not driving.
Driving takes about five minutes outside peak over 2.1 km. Head down Junction Road to Old Canterbury Road, then Windsor Road, Davis Street and Denison Road before Dulwich Street brings you out near the clinic. Park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade, minding the timed bays.
Open until 8pmIf you catch the train from Summer Hill station each morning, an 8pm finish on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays leaves time to get home, grab the car or the light rail, and still make your appointment. On Fridays and Saturdays we open 9am to 3pm.
A standard visit means a thorough exam, a scale and polish, and digital X-rays when they’re due. Find out what to expect at a routine dental check-up and why regular teeth cleaning matters for your gums.
Saturday family visitsFamilies in Summer Hill can book a Saturday slot, then spend the rest of the day at Allman Park or John Paton VC Reserve. Early visits are short and low-key, so children learn the dentist is nothing to dread.
We offer dentistry for children, including fluoride treatment and fissure sealants. Teenagers playing rugby, soccer or basketball can get mouthguards made to measure at the clinic, which is one less thing to sort out before the season.
Same-visit crownsThinking about a brighter smile for a wedding or just for yourself? Talk to us about whitening your teeth, bonding a chipped edge, or composite and E-max veneers. After an exam, you’ll hear what’s suitable and what it costs.
Teeth that are broken or weakened can be capped with crowns made in-house, often in a single visit. Lost a tooth? Our page on dental implants near Summer Hill explains single implants and All-on-4, planned and placed in Dulwich Hill.

Dr Dimitrios Thanos has spent over 25 years in practice, and the clinic uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays. You can meet the people who’ll look after you or read the story of The Smile Spot before booking your first visit.
