Katano Dental Clinic
About
Katano Dental Clinic, located in Ikegamidai, Midori Ward, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, is a dental clinic that has been providing community-rooted dental care since its founding in 1976. Since 2016, the second-generation current director has taken over the practice, operating under a policy that places the highest priority on communication with patients and serving a wide range of age groups. The clinic practices thorough informed consent using animation software, and places emphasis on minimally painful treatment through the use of topical anesthesia and electric anesthesia devices. In terms of equipment, the latest dental CT system introduced in 2025 enables precise diagnosis for advanced treatments such as implants and periodontal disease. The clinic also focuses on infection control, implementing rigorous hygiene management including complete instrument sterilization via autoclave and the installation of an extra-oral vacuum. In 2022, the clinic obtained certification as a designated cooperating physician for disability dentistry, and actively accommodates dental treatment and checkups for patients with disabilities. The interior features a barrier-free design that is accessible for wheelchairs and strollers, and a kids' space beside the dental chair creates a comfortable environment for families with children. English-language support is available, and appointments can be made online 24 hours a day. The clinic is closed on Thursdays, Sundays, and public holidays, and parking is available on-site.
