Nana-chome Dental Clinic
Nana-chome Dental Clinic sits in Takashimadaira, a quiet residential corner of Itabashi that most expats never end up in — unless they live nearby, in which case this place is genuinely convenient. It’s a standard neighborhood dental practice run under the medical corporation Shūhikai, handling the full range of dental work: cleanings, fillings, extractions, orthodontics, implants.
The English situation is real but modest. Staff have conversational English ability, which means you can get your point across without resorting entirely to Google Translate — but don’t expect clinical explanations in fluent English. Some English resources are available, which helps with paperwork. If your dental issue is straightforward, the language barrier won’t be a problem. If you need nuanced back-and-forth about treatment options, bring a bilingual friend or prep your vocabulary in advance.
This isn’t a clinic that markets itself to expats. It’s a local dentist that happens to be accessible to English speakers. For residents of Takashimadaira and the surrounding Itabashi neighborhoods, that’s exactly what you need.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried clinic atmosphere — the kind of place where the dentist actually explains what they’re doing. Wait times are generally reasonable for a neighborhood practice. Patients tend to appreciate the thorough approach to examinations rather than quick in-and-out appointments. The Takashimadaira location means it draws a local crowd, so it doesn’t feel overwhelming or rushed. Nothing flashy, but consistently competent.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
