Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdFrom Terrace Avenue and Snowden Avenue, pick up Port Hacking Road and then the Princes Highway heading north. Turn off at Gannon Street, follow Unwins Bridge Road, Richardsons Crescent and Carrington Road, then Warren Road, Illawarra Road and Petersham Road onto Marrickville Road. It’s 16.8 km and about 32 minutes outside peak.
Miranda station is about 2.5 km from Sylvania, but public transport to the clinic needs a change, so driving is the simplest option. Park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade beside us, noting the timed bays.
Open until 8pmSome people put off the dentist for years because of anxiety, not distance. If that’s you, tell us when you book. Happy gas, oral sedation and IV sedation are all available, and nothing starts until you’re ready.
Regular visits include an exam, digital X-rays when they’re due and a professional clean. Read about what happens at a check-up and our teeth cleaning appointments, then choose an evening or Saturday that suits your week.
Saturday family visitsFamilies near Southgate Shopping Centre or Esplanade Foreshore Reserve often have packed weekends. Our Saturday hours from 9am to 3pm make it simpler to bring two or three children in a single trip up the highway.
From first teeth to fissure sealants, our children’s dental care is relaxed and easy to follow. Teenagers playing contact sport can have a fitted sports mouthguard made from impressions of their own teeth, ready for the season.
Same-visit crownsIf you need several things done, planning it all at one clinic saves repeat drives up the highway. Dental implants near Sylvania, including All-on-4, are planned and placed here, and same-visit crowns are made in-house for damaged teeth.
To change how your smile looks, there’s teeth whitening, bonding and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. You’ll get an explanation of costs after your exam, and payment plans can be arranged at the front desk.
