MAKI DENTAL CLINIC
Maki Dental Clinic sits on the second floor of the NRS Building in Sarugakucho, a quiet residential pocket of Shibuya that most expats walk past without noticing. It’s a short walk from Daikanyama Station, which makes it a decent option if you’re based in that part of west Tokyo.
The clinic handles standard dental work — cleanings, fillings, crowns, the usual. Nothing flashy, nothing boutique. Their website has some English content, which suggests they’ve at least thought about foreign patients, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully bilingual experience. Bring a translation app as backup. Google Translate on your phone will do most of the heavy lifting if things get complicated.
This is a neighborhood dental clinic doing neighborhood dental work. If you’re in Shibuya or Daikanyama and need a dentist without trekking to a big international clinic, it’s worth a call first to check the English situation before booking.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried atmosphere — not the assembly-line feel you sometimes get at busier Tokyo clinics. The dentist is reportedly thorough and takes time explaining procedures. Wait times appear reasonable. It’s a small practice, so you’re not sitting in a crowded waiting room. No strong pattern of complaints, but also limited English-language reviews to draw from, so the picture isn’t complete.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
