AOI SHIKA
Aoi Shika is a small dental clinic on the second floor of Yoshida Building in Meguro’s Takaban neighborhood — a quiet residential pocket that doesn’t see a lot of foot traffic from newcomers. It’s a general dentistry practice covering the usual range: cleanings, fillings, crowns, extractions. The website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about international patients at least a little, but whether that translates to a fully English-capable reception desk isn’t confirmed. Realistically, expect basic communication to be possible, but bring a translation app for anything complicated. Meguro is well-connected, so getting here isn’t a hassle if you’re coming from central Tokyo. This is a neighborhood clinic — not a foreigner-focused practice with multilingual staff on standby. If you live nearby and need reliable general dental care without trekking across the city, it’s worth a call to test the waters before booking.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried atmosphere — this is a small neighborhood practice, not a high-volume clinic churning through appointments. Dentists are described as thorough and willing to explain procedures. Wait times tend to be short. The vibe is quiet and clinical in a reassuring way, not sterile and cold. Don’t expect the kind of slick setup you’d find at a foreigner-targeted clinic in Hiroo or Azabu.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
