Easy ParkingStreet parking on Marrickville Rd
504 Marrickville RdIt’s a fair way: 26.4 km, about 46 minutes outside peak. Urana Road, Glenora Road and Wheatley Road take you to Old Bush Road and the Princes Highway, which you follow most of the way north. Gannon Street, Unwins Bridge Road, Richardsons Crescent and Carrington Road then bring you on to Marrickville Road.
Engadine station is about 1.9 km away and Loftus about 2.3 km, but public transport needs at least one change and the 991 and 993 stay local, so the car is simplest. Park on Marrickville Road or in MacArthur Parade beside the clinic, watching for timed bays.
Open until 8pmWith a drive this long, it helps to get more done each time. Where possible, your exam, clean and any X-rays go into one appointment, with follow-up work booked on a day that suits. Thursday evenings until 8pm and Saturdays from 9am help if weekdays are tight.
Regular visits mean small issues are found before they become bigger jobs, which can save extra trips up the highway later. Here’s what happens at a routine dental check-up and during a scale and clean.
Saturday family visitsOne trip for the household makes the drive easier to justify. Ask for back-to-back Saturday times so parents and children are seen together where possible. Our children’s dental care covers first visits, fluoride and fissure sealants, explained in a way kids can follow.
Yarrawarrah sits in the Sutherland Shire, 32 km south of the CBD, with Yarrawarrah Reserve and Old Bush Road Reserve close by. For kids in contact or ball sports, a custom-fitted mouthguard is made from a mould of their teeth. Sort it before the season starts.
Same-visit crownsCosmetic work starts with a conversation about professional teeth whitening, bonding or custom veneers in composite, E-max or Zirkonzahn. Costs are explained after an exam, and payment plans or health fund claims can be discussed at the clinic.
Because our crowns are made in-house, they can often be fitted in a single visit, which matters when you’re driving 46 minutes each way. Implants, including All-on-4, are planned and placed here too; see dental implants near Yarrawarrah.

Fair question for a 46-minute drive. Dr Dimitrios Thanos has more than 25 years of practice behind him and cares for the whole family, from first visits to implants. Read about The Smile Spot and meet our dental team before you decide.
