Mejirogaoka Dentaru Kurinikku

Mejirogaoka Dental Clinic sits in the Shimo-Ochiai area of Shinjuku, tucked into a residential stretch near Mejiro. It’s a general and orthodontic dental practice — so whether you need a filling or are thinking about braces or Invisalign, this is a one-stop shop. The clinic has some English content on its website, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully bilingual experience. Reception may have limited English, and the dentists’ language ability isn’t confirmed. That said, dental visits are often more manageable than GP appointments — pointing at a tooth gets you surprisingly far. For complex treatment discussions, bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend. The location near Mejiro Station is genuinely convenient — quiet neighborhood, easy access, not buried in a chaotic commercial district. If you’re living in the Shinjuku or Toshima area and need orthodontic work specifically, this clinic is worth a look. Just go in with realistic expectations about communication.
