About
Dental Office Kitano, located in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture, approximately a 2-minute walk from Sanyo-Akashi Station, is a dental and orthodontic clinic that opened in June 2019. The clinic offers general dentistry including cavity treatment and periodontal disease treatment, as well as pediatric dentistry, preventive dentistry, precision root canal treatment, dental implants, teeth whitening, cosmetic dentistry (ceramic treatment), and dentures (precision dentures). For orthodontics, the clinic provides pediatric orthodontics tailored to children's growth stages, as well as wire braces and Invisalign clear aligners for adults. In terms of equipment, the clinic has introduced microscopes and dental CT scanners, which are still relatively uncommon in Japan, enabling highly precise diagnosis and treatment. Particularly in root canal treatment, microscopes are used to preserve teeth as much as possible by carefully examining fine details. The clinic also emphasizes preventive dentistry, having introduced saliva testing to assess cavity risk and phase-contrast microscopes to evaluate periodontal disease status. To minimize discomfort during treatment, measures such as warming anesthetic to body temperature and applying topical anesthesia before injections are taken. The clinic features a family room, making it accessible for patients with young children. The clinic accommodates English and Korean speakers and is equipped with parking and barrier-free facilities. Clinic hours are 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM and 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM on weekdays and Saturdays (Saturday afternoon: 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM), with Thursday, Sunday, and public holidays being closed.
