Kawana Shika
Kawana Shika sits on the first floor of a commercial building in Kojimachi, one of the quieter, more businesslike corners of Chiyoda. It’s a general dental clinic — cleanings, fillings, the usual — in a neighborhood full of offices and embassies, which means it’s used to seeing people who aren’t from around here.
Their website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English-language conversation at the front desk. The English online presence suggests awareness of international patients, not necessarily a bilingual team. Bring your Japanese dental vocabulary, a translation app, or a patient Japanese-speaking friend if you’re nervous about communicating symptoms.
That said, Kojimachi is extremely accessible — it’s a short walk from Hanzomon and Kojimachi stations — and a dental clinic in this area that’s made any effort toward English is worth knowing about if you live or work nearby in central Tokyo.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a straightforward, no-fuss dental experience. The clinic feels professional and clean without being flashy. Appointments tend to run on time, which matters in a busy Chiyoda office district. Doctors are described as thorough and not rushed. It’s a practical neighborhood dentist, not a specialist clinic — good for maintenance and minor issues, less clear on complex procedures for non-Japanese speakers.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
