About
The Iwaki City Holiday Emergency Dental Clinic, located in Uchigo-Kosaka-cho, Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture, is a facility operated by the Iwaki City Dental Association (a general incorporated association) to support the region's emergency dental care. While closed on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, it primarily handles emergency dental issues such as sudden toothaches, broken teeth, and oral problems on Sundays, holidays, and Wednesdays/Thursdays when many dental clinics are simultaneously closed. For residents experiencing dental issues during time slots when regular clinics are unavailable, this facility serves as a critical safety net. The facility features barrier-free design, ensuring an environment where patients using wheelchairs or requiring physical assistance can visit with confidence. Additionally, as English support is available, the facility is accessible to patients who use languages other than Japanese. Parking is also available, accommodating access by private car even from areas with limited public transportation. Operated as a unified effort by the Iwaki City Dental Association through collaboration among local dentists, the facility plays a vital role as a cornerstone of the region's emergency dental care system.
