Murata Dental Clinic
About
Murata Dental Clinic, located in Kurahashi-cho, Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture, is a dental care facility that primarily provides general dentistry and supports oral health in the local community. The clinic also offers the fabrication and treatment of oral appliances for sleep apnea syndrome, contributing to whole-body health management beyond the scope of conventional dentistry. As a participating dental institution in Hiroshima Prefecture's perioperative oral function management system, the clinic is actively engaged in pre- and post-operative oral care for patients undergoing surgical treatments such as cancer surgery. In addition, the clinic has been designated as a "Hiroshima Prefecture Dental Health and Medical Service Consultation Physician for Persons with Difficulty Accessing Care," enabling it to consult on cases where standard dental clinic visits are challenging—including individuals with disabilities, those requiring nursing care, patients with chronic conditions such as dementia, and those with strong dental anxiety—thus establishing a comprehensive, community-rooted support system. The clinic is also a designated facility for special dental health examinations under the Industrial Safety and Health Act, meeting the occupational health screening needs of companies. English-language consultations are available, allowing flexible accommodation of patients who are not Japanese speakers. The facility features a full parking lot and barrier-free design, ensuring a comfortable and accessible environment for elderly patients and those with physical limitations. Consultations are held on weekdays and Saturdays, with morning and afternoon sessions offered.
