Delivering Happiness through Dental Care
Toothaches, unsightly teeth, or difficulty chewing—problems you've endured related to your oral health may be easily solved by visiting our clinic. Coming to us may also provide you with an opportunity to rethink your oral self-care. If you have any concerns, please don't hesitate to visit us.
We strive to help restore the function of your mouth and deliver happiness to our patients, like "I can enjoy conversations with others again" and "I can eat without worrying about anything."
For the Safety of Our Patients
Patient safety during treatment is our top priority.
All instruments used in treatment are sterilized with equipment that meets the strict European Class B standards. Naturally, we also individually sterilize handpieces (the tools used for drilling teeth), which have become a topic of concern recently. We are committed to maintaining a clean treatment environment and ensuring zero in-clinic infections.
Comprehensive Dental Clinic
Our goal is to be a comprehensive dental clinic for the community. From routine cavity treatments covered by insurance to daily maintenance and prevention, as well as advanced procedures such as implants and cosmetic treatments for enhancing aesthetics, we offer a wide range of dental services. If you have any concerns about your oral health, please feel free to consult with us.
Advanced Dental Treatment
We are equipped with dental CT technology that can take three-dimensional images of affected areas. By accurately identifying the position of teeth, bones, nerves, and blood vessels, we ensure precise diagnoses for extractions and implant placements. Our advanced medical equipment allows us to provide accurate and reliable treatments.

Dentistry
At Otsu Terrace Koto Dental Clinic, we prioritize treatments that avoid the use of metals whenever possible. We provide general treatments for cavities and periodontal diseases. Our clinic’s policy is to preserve your natural teeth as much as possible without extraction. We strive to offer the best treatment to help you maintain a comfortable life with your own teeth. We also provide consultations regarding dentures, ensuring that each patient receives the best-fitting solution for their bite.
Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatment is not just about aligning the teeth for aesthetic purposes, but also about restoring functional aspects such as bite alignment. For children in their developmental stages, we use fixed expansion devices as part of their orthodontic treatment. We ensure thorough counseling before beginning any treatment and proceed only when the patient fully understands and agrees with the plan.
Features of Orthodontics
1
Advanced Expertise
Orthodontic treatment requires more time and investment than standard dental care. Our experienced dentists are fully committed to providing responsible care.
2
Emphasis on Counseling
We will thoroughly explain the treatment process and costs so that you can continue your treatment for a long time with peace of mind.
3
From Children to Adults
We offer a variety of treatment options to ensure that both children and adults can receive care with peace of mind.
Pediatric Dentistry
When treating children, our top priority is to be empathetic to their feelings. We take a step-by-step approach, communicating with the child throughout the process, to help them gradually get accustomed to the fear of dental drills and discomfort.
Oral Surgery
We perform surgical treatments for oral health issues. If you're concerned about wisdom teeth, have difficulty opening your jaw, experience pain in your mouth, or have abscesses, please consult us for treatment.
Preventive Dentistry
We take a comprehensive approach to prevent cavities through cleaning, tooth-brushing guidance, and fluoride treatments. Prevention is key, so it's important to stay proactive in your daily care.
Your teeth are irreplaceable and precious. That’s why it’s crucial to protect them through both home care and professional dental care. In order to keep your natural teeth as long as possible, preventive measures are essential. Let’s focus on long-term oral health, not just short-term treatments.
At-Home Oral Care
Brushing Your Teeth
No matter how thoroughly you receive treatment, it won't be effective if you don't brush your teeth correctly at home. In addition to brushing three times a day, use dental floss and interdental brushes for a more effective cleaning routine. Even if you're brushing daily, it’s difficult to remove all plaque, so regular visits to the dentist are important, even if you're not experiencing pain.
Healthy Eating Habits
Snacking frequently throughout the day is more likely to cause cavities than eating meals all at once. Stick to three meals a day and limit snacks to specific times to reduce the risk of cavities.
Benefits of Cavity Prevention
You can reduce treatment time and costs.
Even if cavities or gum disease are found during regular checkups, early detection allows for shorter treatment periods and minimizes the risk of expensive treatments compared to visiting only when you're in pain.
