Avenue shika Oizumigakuen

Avenue Shika Oizumigakuen is a general dental clinic in Nerima Ward, sitting in the quieter residential stretch of Higashi-Oizumi near Oizumigakuen Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. It’s a neighborhood practice — not a tourist-area clinic with English signage everywhere, but they have enough conversational English to get through appointments without you white-knuckling a translation app the whole time. Expect standard dental services: cleanings, fillings, crowns, basic oral surgery. The setup is typical for a Japanese private dental clinic — small, clean, efficient. If your Japanese is zero, call ahead or send an email so they can prepare. Walk-ins are possible but appointments are smarter. For expats living in western Tokyo or Nerima, this is a practical option that doesn’t require a trek into central Tokyo just to get a cavity filled.
