About
Iwaki Dental Clinic is a dental specialty clinic located in Iwaki, Kamijima Town, Ochi District, Ehime Prefecture, approximately a 5-minute walk from Iwaki Port, serving as a pillar of regional healthcare on a remote island. Under the direction of Dr. Hajime Murakami, the clinic primarily provides general and pediatric dentistry, with a particularly notable philosophy of offering 'care-friendly treatment for children and adults with disabilities.' The clinic accepts patients of all ages — both children and adults — who face challenges with communication or maintaining posture due to intellectual disabilities, autism, cerebral palsy, and other conditions, functioning as a provider of comprehensive oral care in the community. The clinic also handles swallowing function therapy and cancer collaborative care, demonstrating involvement in whole-body health management that extends beyond conventional dental treatment. In terms of facilities, the clinic features an adjacent parking lot, accommodates wheelchair users, has an AED on-site, and offers home visits, reflecting its commitment to barrier-free access and community-based medical care. English-language support is also available. Hours run Monday through Saturday mornings, with weekday afternoon hours extending until 6 p.m.; Saturday afternoons, Sundays, and public holidays are closed. Despite its remote island location, this dental clinic is equipped to serve a wide range of patients.
