  • Iidabashi NAKASHIMA Dental Clinic sits on the second floor of the Nakashima Building in Shinjuku’s Ageba-cho area, close enough to Iidabashi Station that you won’t be hunting for it long. It’s a general dental practice covering the usual bases — checkups, cleanings, fillings, and likely some cosmetic work. The website has some English-language content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a seamless English conversation. Reception may manage basic dental vocabulary, but complex treatment discussions could get tricky fast. Bring your best pointing-at-the-tooth energy, or a translation app as backup. That said, a clinic that bothers putting English online is usually making some effort for international patients — it’s not a zero-English situation, just an unclear one. Good option if you’re based around Iidabashi or Shinjuku and need a local dentist without trekking across the city.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a straightforward, no-frills dental experience. The clinic runs on appointments, so walk-in waits aren’t typically a problem. The dentist is described as thorough rather than rushed, which counts for a lot in a country where dental appointments can feel assembly-line fast. The second-floor location is easy to miss if you’re not looking up, so check the building signage carefully. Overall vibe: professional, calm, local neighborhood dental office.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has English on its website, which suggests some awareness of international patients — but that doesn't guarantee a fluent English speaker at the front desk. Basic dental terms might land fine. For anything involving treatment plans, costs, or medical history, bring a translation app or write out your concerns in advance. No confirmed English-language intake forms. If your Japanese is survival-level, you'll probably manage. If it's zero, prepare accordingly and don't expect hand-holding.
