Osozawa Shika

Osozawa Shika is a neighborhood dental clinic tucked into a residential stretch of Kyojima in Sumida Ward — not the most foreigner-trafficked part of Tokyo, but a solid local option if you’re living east of the Sumida River. The clinic handles standard dental work: cleanings, fillings, extractions, the usual. Their website has some English-facing content, which suggests they’ve thought about international patients at least a little, but don’t walk in expecting a fully bilingual front desk. This is a Japanese local clinic first. That said, dentistry is one of those specialties where you can get pretty far with pointing, pictures, and a translation app — the work speaks for itself. If you’re in Sumida and need a dentist without trekking to a hospital or an expensive expat-oriented clinic in central Tokyo, this is worth a call or a visit. Just come prepared with Google Translate and a note about what’s bothering you.
