Shirakawa Family Dental & Orthodontic Clinic
About
Located within the Aeon Mall Shirakawa in Shirakawa City, Fukushima Prefecture, Shirakawa Family Dental & Orthodontics is a dental clinic approximately a 15-minute walk or 5-minute drive from JR Shin-Shirakawa Station. The clinic offers a comprehensive range of services including general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, orthodontics, aesthetic dentistry, and teeth whitening, with a particular emphasis on preventive dentistry based on the philosophy of "prevention over treatment." Through specialized care including PMTC to remove bacterial colonies, the clinic focuses on preventing periodontal disease and cavities to support long-term oral health. Pain management is a key feature, featuring careful anesthesia using electric injection systems and painless treatment (non-covered) using DBS cement that preserves nerves whenever possible. The clinic employs digital radiography equipment including dental CT, enabling high-precision imaging with radiation exposure reduced to 1/6-1/10 of conventional methods. Infection control is thorough with instruments fully sterilized by autoclave for each patient. Office hours are 9:00-20:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays without a lunch break, accepting same-day appointments and emergency cases. English-speaking communication is available, and the spacious parking lot at Aeon Mall makes access by car convenient.
