Horiuchi Shikaiin
Horiuchi Shikaiin is a general dental clinic on the second floor of the AM Building in Higashi-Gotanda, Shinagawa — a short walk from Gotanda Station. Run under the Yuseikai medical corporation, it’s been serving the local area as a solid neighborhood dental practice covering the standard range of services: checkups, cleanings, fillings, and basic restorative work.
The website has some English-language content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully bilingual experience. It suggests some awareness of international patients, but confirmed English-speaking staff isn’t something you can count on. A translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend wouldn’t hurt if your needs are complex. For routine dental work though, pointing and gesturing gets you further than you’d think.
Location-wise, Shinagawa and Gotanda are well-connected, making this accessible from a lot of central Tokyo neighborhoods. If you live or work in the Shinagawa area and need a reliable local dentist without trekking across town, this is worth knowing about.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a competent, no-fuss neighborhood dental practice. Appointments tend to run on schedule and the clinic doesn’t feel rushed or overcrowded. The dentist is described as thorough during examinations without being alarmist. The atmosphere is calm and clinical rather than flashy — this is a practical place to get dental work done, not a boutique experience. Staff are professional and polite, though English communication may require some effort on your part.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
