ISHIGAMI DENTAL OFFICE

Ishigami Dental Office sits in Minami-Aoyama, one of Tokyo’s more polished neighborhoods in Minato ward — the kind of area where you’d expect a dentist who takes their work seriously. The clinic’s website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about international patients, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a seamless English conversation at the front desk. The dentist holds a PhD, which you can see reflected in how the website presents the practice — academic, detail-oriented, not a conveyor-belt operation. This feels like a smaller, more personal clinic rather than a big multi-chair chain. For expats living or working in Aoyama, Omotesando, or nearby Roppongi, the location is genuinely convenient. Go in with a translation app as backup, have your dental history written down in Japanese if possible, and you’ll likely be fine. Good for routine care, cleanings, and more involved work if you’re willing to navigate some language friction.
