Arimori Dental Clinic
About
Arimori Dental Clinic, located in Fuchu-cho, Aki-gun, Hiroshima Prefecture, is a dental institution that plays a wide range of specialized roles beyond general dental care. As a partner dental facility in the Hiroshima Prefecture Perioperative Oral Function Management System, the clinic works in coordination with attending physicians to manage oral function for patients undergoing surgical treatments such as cancer surgery, contributing to the prevention of postoperative infections. The clinic also provides fabrication and treatment of oral appliances for sleep apnea syndrome, reflecting a practice model that addresses the intersection of internal medicine and dentistry. Furthermore, it serves as a designated consultation dentist for individuals who have difficulty receiving treatment at general dental clinics—including those with disabilities, those requiring nursing care, and patients with dementia, severe dental anxiety, or strong gag reflexes—providing essential community support. The clinic conducts free dental checkups for elderly patients aged 75 and over, as well as special dental health examinations based on the Industrial Safety and Health Act, playing an important role in preventive dentistry and occupational health in the local community. With English-speaking staff available, along with parking facilities and barrier-free access, the clinic provides a welcoming environment for a diverse range of patients.
