  • Orthodontics and general dentistry combined
  • Near central Tokyo
  • Keiouhachioji ekimae Shika Kyouseisika sits on the 5th floor of Eight Building, right in front of Keio Hachioji Station in the western Tokyo suburbs. The clinic covers general dentistry and orthodontics, which is a useful combo if you’re thinking about both day-to-day dental care and longer-term work like braces or aligners.

    The website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about non-Japanese patients at least a little. But don’t count on walking in and having a fluent English conversation at the front desk — that’s not confirmed. Hachioji is a large city in its own right, not central Tokyo, so this makes more sense as a neighborhood option if you live or work out west rather than a destination clinic you’d travel across the city for. Bring your translation app as backup, have your insurance card ready, and check the website before your first visit to get a feel for what to expect.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a clinic that takes its time with examinations rather than rushing people through. The orthodontics side seems to be a genuine focus, not just an add-on. Being on the 5th floor means it’s a quieter environment than street-level clinics. Wait times appear reasonable for the area. Overall vibe reads as professional and calm rather than flashy.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has some English on its website, which is a low bar but better than nothing. Real-world English at reception is unconfirmed — assume Japanese-primary. Bring a translation app like Google Translate or DeepL. Writing down your symptoms or concerns beforehand in Japanese (or having them translated) will make your first visit go much smoother. Don't expect English consent forms or explanations without asking.
