The clinic is open on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM and from 2:00 PM to 6:30 PM, and also offers morning and afternoon hours until 5:00 PM on Saturdays, making it accessible for those who find it difficult to visit during typical daytime hours. English-language support is available, allowing patients whose native language is not Japanese to communicate comfortably during their visit. The clinic provides the fabrication and treatment of oral appliances for sleep apnea syndrome, contributing to whole-body health management beyond the conventional scope of dentistry. It is also certified as a perioperative oral function management partner dental institution by Hiroshima Prefecture, working in coordination with attending physicians to provide oral care for patients undergoing surgical treatments such as cancer surgery, thereby helping to reduce the risk of postoperative infections. In addition, the clinic serves as a consultation resource for cases where standard dental care is difficult to access, including individuals with disabilities, those requiring nursing care, patients with dementia, and those with severe dental anxiety, supporting community healthcare as a designated consultation dentist for individuals facing barriers to dental and oral health services. Parking is available on-site, ensuring convenient access by car.
