Mayumi Shika
Mayumi Shika is a general dental clinic in Taito, one of Tokyo’s older, more traditional wards — think shitamachi vibes, not glassy high-rises. It operates under the medical corporation Azuna-kai, which usually signals a more structured, professional setup than a solo practitioner office.
The clinic covers standard dental work: cleanings, fillings, crowns, and likely orthodontics and implants based on what similar Azuna-kai practices offer. Their website has some English-facing content, which is a decent sign — but that doesn’t guarantee the front desk can hold a full conversation in English. Expect to manage with a translation app for anything complicated.
If you’re living or working in Taito, Asakusa, or Ueno, this is a convenient neighborhood option. It’s not marketed as an expat clinic, so walk in with realistic expectations. Come with your insurance card, know your dental vocabulary in Japanese if you can, and you’ll probably be fine for routine care.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a fairly no-nonsense experience — appointments move efficiently, and the dentists tend to be thorough without being alarmist. The clinic has a neighborhood feel rather than a slick urban practice, which some patients find reassuring and others find a little dated. Wait times appear reasonable when you book ahead. Nothing flashy, but consistent and competent for standard dental needs.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
