Tsuchida Shika
Tsuchida Shika sits on the third floor of the Hikari Building in Yoyogi, right on the Shibuya side of the ward boundary. It’s a general dentistry practice handling the usual range: cleanings, fillings, crowns, implants. The website has some English-language content, which suggests they’ve made some effort to reach foreign patients — but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a full English conversation. Reception may or may not be comfortable in English depending on who’s working. This is a small clinic, not a big international medical center, so manage expectations accordingly. That said, Yoyogi is easy to reach from most of central Tokyo, and a local dentist that’s made any English effort at all is worth knowing about. Bring a translation app as backup. If you can get a Japanese-speaking friend to call ahead and confirm the English situation before your first visit, that’s the smart move.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback on Tsuchida Shika is limited in English-language sources. The clinic appears to run a standard Japanese neighborhood dental practice — appointment-based, relatively small, and focused on general care. Patients at similar small Shibuya-area clinics often note shorter wait times compared to larger hospital dental departments. The third-floor location means no street-level visibility, so first-timers should check the building directory carefully.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
