CHIHAYA Dental Clinic
CHIHAYA Dental Clinic sits in Chofu, a residential part of western Tokyo that most expats don’t end up in unless they actually live there. It’s a neighborhood practice — the kind that’s been serving the same community for years rather than chasing medical tourism. The clinic operates out of the first floor of the Chihaya Building on Kojima-cho, which is about as local as it gets.
Their website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully bilingual consultation. The honest answer is: English capability here is partial at best. A translation app will probably come in handy, especially for anything beyond basic check-ups. If you’re in the Chofu area and need routine dental work — cleanings, fillings, the basics — this is a reasonable option. If you have a complex situation and need detailed English communication throughout, you might want to call ahead and gauge comfort levels before booking.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a straightforward neighborhood dental experience — thorough cleanings, no hard upsell on unnecessary procedures, and reasonable wait times for a local clinic. The dentist is described as careful and methodical rather than rushed. It’s not a flashy international clinic, but for routine work the quality seems solid. Patients who live locally seem to return consistently, which usually says more than any individual review.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
