OKUMURA shikaiin

Okumura Dental sits on the second floor of the Yamato Building in Shinjuku’s Yanagiba-cho area — not the flashiest part of the ward, but convenient enough if you’re already navigating the Shinjuku maze. It’s a general dentistry practice covering the usual bases: cleanings, fillings, extractions, and likely some cosmetic work. 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 fluent English conversation at the front desk. Come prepared with a translation app or written notes about your symptoms. That said, Shinjuku has enough international foot traffic that staff here probably aren’t completely thrown off by foreign patients. It’s a solid neighborhood dental option if you live or work nearby — just manage expectations around language before you book.
