Kashima Shika
Kashima Shika is a dental clinic in Musashino City, tucked into a residential pocket of Nakamachi — not central Tokyo, but well-connected if you’re living in the western suburbs. The clinic operates out of a small building (second floor, look for the Lavies Kashima building), which gives it a neighborhood-practice feel rather than a big-city dental chain vibe.
Their website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about non-Japanese patients at least a little. But “some English online” doesn’t always translate to smooth English communication at the front desk, so go in with realistic expectations. A translation app on your phone is smart backup.
For routine dental work — checkups, cleanings, fillings — this kind of local clinic usually gets the job done without the wait times you’d face at a larger hospital. If you’re in Musashino or nearby Mitaka and need a dentist you can actually get to without a long commute, this is worth a look. Just confirm English support before you book.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried clinic environment — the kind of neighborhood dentist where you’re not just a number. Appointments tend to run on time. The doctor is described as thorough and willing to explain procedures. Wait times are generally short compared to hospital dental departments. The small-practice setting means you’ll likely see the same dentist each visit, which helps if you need ongoing treatment.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
