The 9 Best English-Speaking Dentists in Tokyo (2026)

Some of these clinics say they accept it and some say they do not, so ask before you book. Trust Dental Clinic says it accepts Japanese National Health Insurance, and Reiko Dental Clinic and Hitomi Dental Office say they accept Japanese health insurance. Tokyo Clinic Dental Office says it does not accept Japanese National or Social Health Insurance, and The Empire Dental Office, which is not listed here, says it treats self-pay patients only. We cannot say what a visit would cost you, so confirm fees when you call.

Phone a clinic that says it takes urgent patients and say what has happened. Bc Dental Office's English page says emergency patients are accepted at any time, though it also says patients with appointments get priority. If you are unsure where to go, call the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Himawari service on 03-5285-8181. Its page says it takes calls in English every day from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and helps find institutions that support foreign languages. For a life-threatening emergency, call 119.

Tokyo Clinic Dental Office lists child dentistry, Inaba Dental Office lists pediatrics (children's dentistry) and ANBI Shinjuku lists pediatric dentistry. MY Dental Office Kojimachi lists gentle treatment for children. Ask each clinic the youngest age it sees, because that detail is not on every site.

Several clinics list orthodontics on their English pages. Tokyo Clinic Dental Office says it uses conventional wires or Invisalign, Reiko Dental Clinic, Hitomi Dental Office and Inaba Dental Office list orthodontics, and ANBI Shinjuku calls itself a dental and orthodontic clinic. MY Dental Office Kojimachi names an orthodontic specialist. Bc Dental Office says it reserves one Thursday and one Sunday a month for orthodontic treatment.

Usually yes. Inaba Dental Office lists itself as by appointment only, ANBI Shinjuku says it prioritizes patients who booked in advance and Bc Dental Office asks you to reserve to cut waiting time. Trust Dental Clinic and Hitomi Dental Office list phone and email contacts, and Hitomi has a separate English phone line at each office. Call first for anything urgent.

Trust Dental Clinic says no international insurer allows direct settlement with overseas dental offices, so you pay the full amount in advance and your insurance company reimburses you. It says it will fill out and sign claim forms. Other clinics do not say how they handle overseas insurance, so ask when you book.
