Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdHead out along Pottinger Street and Hickson Road, then Sussex Street feeds you onto the Western Distributor. From The Crescent and Johnston Street, Parramatta Road and Cannon Street lead to Westbourne and Crystal Streets. New Canterbury Road and Wardell Road finish the run onto Marrickville Road, roughly 25 minutes in light traffic.
There’s no direct bus from Walsh Bay. The Star, a little under two kilometres away, is the nearest L1 stop, and that line runs to Dulwich Grove, close to the clinic. If you’re driving, street parking is on Marrickville Road and MacArthur Parade, with some bays timed.
Open until 8pmCrossing the city is easier when you aren’t watching the clock. Choose a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday evening, when appointments run until 8pm, or a Friday or Saturday between 9am and 3pm. Lock in the next one at the front desk and the routine looks after itself.
Check-ups look at teeth, gums and any older dental work, with a clean to clear tartar and digital X-rays when due. More detail is on our pages for routine check-ups and teeth cleaning appointments.
Saturday family visitsFamilies around Walsh Bay have Pottinger Park, Argyle Place Park and Dawes Point Reserve close by. On Saturdays you can fit a dental visit between 9am and 3pm and still have most of the afternoon free for the park.
Children’s care runs from a first relaxed look to cleans, fluoride and sealants as teeth come through. Read about children’s dentistry at The Smile Spot, and for kids in contact sport, see custom-fitted mouthguards.
Same-visit crownsWhiter teeth, a more even edge or a repaired chip are all worth asking about, and a consultation explains what’s possible. Choices include teeth whitening, bonding and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn, with the cost of each given after your exam.
Broken teeth can be restored with crowns made at our clinic, often in a single appointment. Where a tooth is missing, see dental implants near Walsh Bay, covering single implants and All-on-4, all planned in Dulwich Hill.
Dr Dimitrios Thanos leads the clinic with more than 25 years in practice. Read about The Smile Spot or meet the team before your first visit, so you know who you’ll be seeing.
