  • Hakata Saruusu Kodomo/Otona Dental is a comprehensive dental clinic in Fukuoka serving both children and adults. The facility maintains a solid 4.3/5 star rating from 65 reviews, indicating generally positive patient experiences. The clinic offers standard dental treatments including cavity care, regular cleanings, and orthodontic services like Invisalign. Their pediatric dentistry is particularly well-regarded, with specific mentions of child-friendly staff and a comfortable environment for young patients. The clinic employs multiple dentists, including the clinic director (an elderly male doctor) and other practitioners like Dr. Yamashita. While most staff speak limited English, the reception team makes efforts to accommodate non-Japanese speakers despite the language barrier. The clinic operates on an appointment system with regular maintenance visits scheduled approximately monthly for ongoing care. Some patients note inconsistencies in billing practices, particularly regarding maintenance fees, which represents the main criticism in otherwise positive reviews. The clinic’s dual focus on pediatric and adult dentistry makes it suitable for families seeking comprehensive dental care under one roof in Fukuoka.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient reviews highlight the clinic’s strength in pediatric dentistry, with parents specifically praising the friendly, professional approach of staff like Dr. Yamashita. Multiple patients mention the polite, kind demeanor of all doctors and thorough explanations before treatments. Critical feedback centers on billing inconsistencies for maintenance visits and some patients question the high rating due to experiences with the elderly clinic director, who reportedly becomes upset when treatments take longer than expected.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has limited English capabilities based on reviews. While the receptionist staff are described as "very helpful even though they can't speak English," they make efforts to accommodate non-Japanese speaking patients. The clinic name itself combines Japanese (Hakata Saruusu) with English terms (Kodomo/Otona Dental), suggesting some awareness of international patients. Non-Japanese speakers should expect communication challenges but helpful attitudes from staff.
