Okabe Shikaiin

Okabe Shikaiin sits on the 4th floor of the Hachioji Yumex GL building in Shin-machi, putting it squarely in central Hachioji — one of Tokyo’s larger suburban hubs, well connected by JR and Keio lines. It’s a general dental clinic under the medical corporation Shikoukai, handling the usual range of dental work: checkups, cleanings, fillings, extractions, and likely some cosmetic and prosthetic work.

Their website has some English-language elements, which suggests awareness of international patients, but don’t assume fluent English-speaking staff are waiting at reception. This is a Japanese neighborhood dental practice first. If you go in expecting a bilingual clinic, you may be disappointed. If you go in with a translation app and a clear idea of what tooth hurts, you’ll probably be fine.

Hachioji has a meaningful expat population — students, teachers, long-term residents — so this clinic may have more experience with non-Japanese patients than its size suggests. Worth a call or email before booking if your dental needs are complex.
