OHKI DENTAL OFFICE
Ohki Dental Office sits in Machiya, a residential stretch of Arakawa that most expats never wander into unless they live nearby. It’s a small, local dental clinic operating out of the ground floor of A-FLAT — the kind of neighborhood practice where the dentist knows their regulars by name.
Their website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t expect a fully bilingual front desk. This isn’t a foreigner-facing international clinic. If your Japanese is minimal, come prepared with a translation app and notes about your dental history. That said, a clinic making the effort to put English online usually means someone there has thought about non-Japanese patients at least a little.
Standard dental services — cleanings, fillings, basic restorative work — are what you’re here for. Machiya Station on the Chiyoda Line puts you within walking distance. If you’re in Arakawa and need reliable local dental care without trekking to central Tokyo, this is worth checking out. Just set realistic expectations on English support before you book.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried atmosphere typical of smaller neighborhood clinics. The dentist appears thorough rather than rushed — local regulars seem to appreciate the consistency. Wait times are generally reasonable for a practice this size. Don’t expect a buzzing, high-tech urban dental chain feel. This is quiet, competent, community-style dentistry. No strong signals of exceptional English communication in patient accounts, but no horror stories either.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
