Akase Dental Clinic
About
Akase Dental Clinic, located in Kokokubu, Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture, is a community-based dental practice offering a broad range of services including preventive dentistry, home visit dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening, dentures, and periodontal treatment, with a guiding philosophy centered on improving patients' quality of life. A notable feature of this clinic is its adoption of advanced diagnostic equipment. The saliva testing device "Siruha" measures six parameters including cavity-causing bacteria levels and acidity, while the oral bacteria detection device "orcoa" enables rapid chairside detection and semi-quantification of P. gingivalis, a primary causative bacterium in periodontal disease. A vital signs monitor allows real-time tracking of blood pressure and SpO2 during procedures, ensuring careful attention to patients with underlying medical conditions. The clinic also conducts quantitative evaluation of sleep bruxism using wearable electromyography, which is utilized in formulating prognosis-oriented treatment plans including assessment of tooth fracture risk, selection of prosthetic materials, and analysis of factors contributing to periodontal disease progression. English-language support is available, and the clinic offers on-site parking. Appointments are prioritized, and patients with urgent dental needs are advised to contact the clinic by phone.
