HAYASHI DENTAL CLINIC

Shibuya Station (JR Yamanote Line) — 8 min walk
  • Implants and orthodontics available
  • Near central Tokyo
  • Hayashi Dental Clinic sits in a first-floor space in Shibuya’s Higashi neighborhood — the quieter, residential-ish side of Shibuya, away from the scramble chaos. Run under the Saiyu-kai medical corporation, this is a general dentistry practice covering the usual range: cleanings, fillings, crowns, implants, orthodontics.

    Their website has some English-facing content, which suggests they’re at least aware that non-Japanese patients exist. But “some English on the website” doesn’t automatically mean fluent English-speaking staff waiting to greet you. Expect a mixed bag — maybe one staff member who can handle basics, but you’ll want to come prepared with your symptoms written down or a translation app ready.

    It’s a solid neighborhood dental option if you’re based in or around Shibuya. Not a dedicated expat clinic, but not hostile to foreign patients either. Book via their website and confirm English availability before your first visit.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a thorough, unhurried approach — the kind of dentist who explains what they’re doing rather than just drilling in silence. Wait times appear reasonable for a Tokyo dental clinic. The Higashi location means it’s calm and easy to get to without fighting Shibuya station crowds. No standout complaints about the experience, but also no strong signal about English-language support from patient reviews specifically.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic's website includes some English-language information, which is a decent sign — they're not completely ignoring non-Japanese speakers. But confirmed English-speaking staff? That's less clear. Reception may handle simple communication, but a complex treatment discussion in English is a stretch without preparation. Bring a translation app, write down your symptoms in Japanese beforehand if possible, and call ahead or email to ask about English support before booking.
