Shimokitazawa Takahashi Dental and Oral Surgery Clinic sits on the second floor of the Iwaki Building in Daizawa, Setagaya — a short walk from the indie-cool hub of Shimokitazawa Station. The clinic covers general dentistry alongside oral surgery, which is a meaningful distinction. Most neighborhood dental clinics won’t touch complicated extractions, jaw issues, or surgical cases — this one can.

The website has some English content, which is a good sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in to fluent English-speaking staff. That’s not confirmed. If your Japanese is nonexistent, come prepared with a translation app and photos of any problem areas. Google Translate on your phone will carry you further than you’d expect here.

It’s a small clinic, not a big expat-facing operation. But if you’re in Setagaya and need more than a basic cleaning — especially anything that crosses into oral surgery territory — this is worth knowing about.
