Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdTake Second Avenue to Edinburgh Road, then Alpha Road and Flat Rock Drive down to Brook Street and the Warringah Freeway. Cross the harbour on the Bradfield Highway, continue along the Western Distributor, then follow The Crescent and Johnston Street through to Marrickville Road. It’s 18.4 km, roughly 34 minutes outside peak.
Artarmon station is about 2.2 km from the suburb centre, but for this trip most people find the car simplest. Street parking is on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade beside the clinic, with some bays timed.
Open until 8pmThe freeway is at its slowest in peak hour, so later appointments are worth considering. Booking a 7pm slot on a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday means you’re driving after the rush, and Saturday mornings are usually lighter still.
Routine care covers an exam, a professional clean and digital X-rays when due. Find out more about general check-ups and teeth cleaning, then book your next visit before you leave so it’s already in the diary.
Saturday family visitsWeekends around Willoughby Park or St Aloysius Oval can be busy with sport, so Saturday appointments between 9am and 3pm make a family visit far easier to fit in. Siblings can be seen one after another in the same trip.
Read about our children’s dentistry, from first visits to fissure sealants. Before the next season starts, a custom sports mouthguard can be made from impressions of your child’s teeth so it fits snugly and comfortably.
Same-visit crownsCracked or worn teeth can often be restored with dental crowns made in-house, fitted in a single visit. That saves a second trip across the bridge. For gaps, dental implants near Willoughby East are planned and placed at the clinic, including All-on-4.
For a brighter smile, there’s teeth whitening, bonding and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. After an exam, you’ll get a clear explanation of costs, and payment plans or health fund claims can be discussed.

Principal dentist Dr Dimitrios Thanos has more than 25 years in practice and takes time to explain each option. Meet the people you’ll see, or read about The Smile Spot before booking your first visit.
