Funabori Smile Shika
Funabori Smile Shika sits inside the TIPETTO Funabori building in Edogawa — a ward that doesn’t see many English-friendly clinics, so finding one here matters. This is a general dental clinic covering the usual bases: checkups, cleanings, fillings, whitening, and implants. The website has some English-language content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume that means fluent English-speaking staff are waiting at the front desk. Reality is probably somewhere in the middle — a willingness to help, some basic communication, and a lot of pointing at diagrams. Funabori Station is on the Toei Shinjuku Line, making this reasonably accessible from central Tokyo without being in the thick of it. For expats living in eastern Tokyo who need routine dental work and don’t want to trek to Minato or Shibuya, this is worth a look. Bring a translation app as backup.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, organized clinic without long waits. The dentists tend to explain procedures before diving in, which nervous patients appreciate. The TIPETTO building location is easy to find from Funabori Station. No reports of rushed appointments. Overall vibe is professional but not cold — a neighborhood dental office that takes its work seriously rather than moving people through like a conveyor belt.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
