Times Square Dental Clinic
Times Square Dental is tucked inside the Takashimaya department store in Shinjuku — floor 10, which sounds odd for a dentist but actually makes it easy to find and weirdly convenient to combine with errands. Despite the “Times Square” name and a Shibuya address on paper, you’re functionally in Shinjuku, a two-minute walk from the south exit.
The clinic handles standard dentistry: cleanings, fillings, crowns, cosmetic work. The website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about international patients at least a little. But “some English online” doesn’t automatically mean smooth English communication at the front desk or chairside — that part is genuinely unclear. Come prepared with a translation app or written notes about your symptoms if your Japanese is limited.
It’s a private clinic, so costs are higher than national health insurance rates at public hospitals. That’s normal for this type of setup. Location is convenient if you’re already in the Shinjuku area.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback is limited in English-language sources. The department store location gets points for accessibility — easy to find, no sketchy side streets. Patients familiar with Japanese private dental clinics report the usual: thorough cleanings, detailed explanations with visual aids (X-rays on screen), and a polished, clean environment. Wait times appear reasonable for a private clinic. Nothing suggests rushed appointments.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
