504 Marrickville RdHead along McEvoy Street, then Euston Road and Campbell Road to the Princes Highway. From there, Railway Road and Gleeson Avenue lead to Railway Parade and on to Marrickville Road. It’s 7.6 km, about 17 minutes outside peak, finishing at MacArthur Parade beside the clinic.
No single bus or train brings you from Waterloo to our door, so most people drive. Green Square station is under a kilometre from the suburb’s centre, and Central Grand Concourse, around two kilometres away, is on the L1 line that runs to Dulwich Grove. Both mean a change. Once here, park on Marrickville Road or MacArthur Parade, where a few bays are timed.
Open until 8pmGetting across town at lunchtime rarely works, which is why evening hours matter. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday appointments run until 8pm, so the drive over can wait until your day is done.
A check-up here covers a thorough exam, digital X-rays when needed and a scale and polish. See what to expect from a dental check-up and a hygiene clean, and ask us anything when you call.
Saturday family visitsBetween Waterloo Park, Tobruk Reserve and The Rope Walk, local kids have plenty of room to run around. A Saturday appointment before 3pm fits around that, and brothers and sisters can be seen one after the other.
First visits are kept short and friendly. From there we look after fluoride, fissure sealants and fillings as part of kids’ dentistry. If your child plays a contact sport, a custom-fitted mouthguard is made from a mould of their teeth.
Same-visit crownsA chipped front tooth can often be rebuilt with bonding, while larger damage may need an in-house crown fitted in the same visit. If a tooth has to come out, ask about dental implants near Waterloo, including single implants and All-on-4.
Cosmetic changes start with a conversation about what you’d like and what’s realistic. Options include professional whitening and custom veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. Costs are explained after your exam, and health funds and payment plans can be discussed.
You’ll be looked after by Dr Dimitrios Thanos, who has over 25 years in practice, and a team that uses laser dentistry and digital X-rays. Meet the Smile Spot team or find out more about our clinic.
