Kato Dental Clinic
About
Located in Higashi Ward, Sapporo, Kato Dental Clinic is a dental medical institution deeply rooted in the community. Under the leadership of Dr. Yumi Amitsuka, who assumed the directorship in January 2024, the clinic continues to develop its treatment philosophy centered on 'prevention.' The clinic is characterized by its active information dissemination efforts, such as providing detailed explanations on their website about the mechanism of tooth decay through three elements: 'tooth condition,' 'food,' and 'cavity bacteria.' This focus on preventive education reflects the clinic's approach of emphasizing not only treatment but also improving patients' daily oral care. The clinic offers preventive procedures including fluoride application and sealants, with a comprehensive system in place to support oral health for patients of all ages, from children to the elderly. Clinic hours are 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 7:00 PM (last reception at 12:30 PM and 6:30 PM respectively), with Saturday hours limited to the morning only. The clinic is closed on Sundays, holidays, year-end and New Year holidays, and Obon period. English-language services are available, and parking is provided.
