  • Kuribayashi Shika Kurinikku is a general dental clinic sitting on the ground floor of the Shimizu Building in Oshima, Koto Ward — a residential part of east Tokyo that most expats don’t land in by accident. If you’re here, you probably live nearby.

    The clinic covers standard dental work: checkups, cleanings, fillings, and likely more involved procedures. Their website has some English-language content, which is a decent signal — someone there thought about international patients. But “website has English” and “staff speak English” are two different things, and this clinic hasn’t confirmed full English service.

    Go in with a translation app ready. If your Japanese is basic or nonexistent, write down your symptoms beforehand. The clinic appears to be a small neighborhood practice rather than a foreigner-focused international clinic, so don’t expect an English-speaking coordinator walking you through everything. That said, dental visits involve a lot of pointing at teeth, which is a universal language.

    Worth calling ahead to gauge the English situation before your first appointment.

    Patient Feedback

    No substantial English-language review base exists for this clinic yet. It reads as a neighborhood dental practice — the kind where the dentist likely knows their regular patients by name. Small practices like this in residential Tokyo areas tend to run on time and feel less rushed than big urban clinics, but that’s an educated guess, not a guarantee. If you’ve been here, your review would genuinely help other expats in Koto.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has some English on its website, which puts it ahead of many local dental offices. But whether that translates to English-speaking staff at reception or during treatment is unknown. Assume you'll need a translation app like Google Translate or DeepL. Don't expect English intake forms. If you have specific dental history or a complex issue to explain, write it out in Japanese using a translation tool before you walk in. Call ahead — even a short attempt can tell you a lot.
