  • Den Masafumi Dental Office sits on the fourth floor of the Sakuma Building in Asakusa, one of Tokyo’s most tourist-heavy neighborhoods — which means the area is used to foreign faces, even if the clinic itself isn’t set up as an international practice. This is a standard Japanese dental office run by Dr. Den Masafumi, covering general dentistry. The website has some English content, which suggests at least some awareness of non-Japanese patients, but don’t expect fluent English-speaking staff or English intake forms waiting for you. Come prepared with a translation app, your insurance card, and ideally some written notes about your symptoms in Japanese. It’s a neighborhood dentist, not an expat-focused clinic. If you’re in the Asakusa area and need a cavity filled or a checkup, it’s a reasonable option — just go in with realistic expectations about the language situation.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback specific to this clinic is limited online in English. Based on the clinic profile, it operates as a small, single-dentist practice — that typically means more personal attention from the doctor and less of the conveyor-belt feeling you get at larger dental chains. Wait times at smaller Japanese dental offices are generally manageable when you book ahead. Expect a thorough, methodical Japanese dental experience. Nothing flashy, just solid dentistry.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic's website has some English-facing content, which is a small positive signal — they're at least aware that non-Japanese patients exist. But that doesn't mean reception speaks English or that forms are available in English. Realistically, prepare for a mostly Japanese interaction. A translation app like Google Translate will help. If you can send an email in Japanese ahead of your visit to confirm your situation, that's your best move. Don't show up cold expecting English.
