Okusawa Shikaiin

Okusawa Shikaiin is a neighborhood dental clinic tucked into a residential stretch of Okusawa in Setagaya — the kind of area where locals have been going to the same dentist for years. The clinic handles standard dental work: cleanings, fillings, extractions, the usual. Their website has some English-language content, which is a decent sign, but don’t count on a fully bilingual experience at the front desk. It’s likely a mix of basic English, gestures, and Google Translate getting you through the appointment. If your dental needs are straightforward, that’s probably fine. If you need to discuss something complicated — implants, orthodontics, a tricky extraction — bring a Japanese-speaking friend or prep your translation app before you walk in. It’s a small, local practice, not an international clinic, and that’s fine as long as you go in with realistic expectations.
