504 Marrickville RdFollow Willoughby Road down to the Warringah Freeway and over the Bradfield Highway. On the southern side, the Western Distributor and The Crescent lead to Johnston Street and Parramatta Road, then Cannon Street, Westbourne Street and Crystal Street take you towards Marrickville Road. The trip is 17.4 km, about 31 minutes outside peak.
No bus from Willoughby comes to our door, so the car is the easiest way over. When you arrive, there’s street parking on Marrickville Road and in MacArthur Parade next to the clinic. Some bays are timed, so check the signs before you head in.
Open until 8pmIf your week is spent around Chatswood or the city, a 6pm or 7pm booking can be easier than taking time off. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday run until 8pm, and Friday and Saturday from 9am to 3pm.
Each visit includes a full exam, digital X-rays when they’re due and a clean to remove tartar. Read what’s covered in a standard check-up and why a professional clean still matters if you brush and floss well.
Saturday family visitsSaturday appointments let you bring the children in without missing school. Book them together, and there’s still time afterwards for Hallstrom Park, Sanders Park or a run around Henderson Park.
From first visits to teenage check-ups, we explain each step so kids feel at ease. See our children’s dental care page, and if they play rugby, hockey or soccer, ask about a mouthguard custom-made for them.
Same-visit crownsImplants take several stages, so it’s simpler when one clinic handles them all. Assessment, placement and the final restoration for dental implants near Willoughby happen in Dulwich Hill, including All-on-4. Same-visit crowns are made in-house.
For appearance, we offer whitening, bonding and veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. Every option is costed after an exam, and payment plans and health fund claims can be sorted at reception.
With Northbridge Plaza and the Griffin Centre nearby, a closer dentist may suit quick visits. The trip suits people wanting late appointments, sedation or implant treatment planned with Dr Dimitrios Thanos, in practice for over 25 years. Read about our clinic and meet the team.
