Hara Shikaiin
Hara Shikaiin sits on the 3rd floor of Oak Building in Kashiwacho, Tachikawa — a residential neighborhood in western Tokyo, about 10 minutes from the main Tachikawa hub. The clinic operates under the medical corporation Kashiwanoha and focuses on implant dentistry, which the website makes pretty clear is their main thing.
The site has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about non-Japanese patients at least a little. But “some English online” doesn’t automatically mean the front desk will be comfortable having a full conversation with you in English. For complex treatment like implants, you’ll want to clarify communication before you book. That said, showing up with a translation app and a clear description of your problem is a reasonable starting point here.
If you’re in Tachikawa or the western Tokyo suburbs and need serious dental work — not just a cleaning — this is worth looking into. Just go in with realistic expectations about language, and confirm before you commit to anything multi-session.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a clinic that takes its time with treatment planning — not a conveyor-belt dentist. The implant focus means consultations tend to be thorough, with proper imaging and explanation of options. Wait times are generally reasonable. The building location (3rd floor, elevator access) is easy enough once you know it’s there. Overall vibe is professional and calm rather than rushed. Not a walk-in kind of place — appointments are the way to go.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
