Yamaguchi Dental Clinic
About
Yamaguchi Dental Clinic is located just north of Hanshin Aoki Station in Higashinada Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture. Originally established in 1988 in Motoyama-Minamimachi, the clinic relocated to its current newly constructed facility in 2008. The clinic offers general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, and orthodontics. Director Hideo Yamaguchi graduated from Osaka University Faculty of Dentistry, while Vice Director Yoichi Yamaguchi specialized in orthodontics at the same university. The clinic prioritizes minimally invasive cavity treatment, utilizing Diagnodent laser diagnostic equipment for more accurate diagnosis than conventional methods. For orthodontics, they provide discreet treatment using clear aligners, treating patients from children to adults. Other services include mouthpiece treatment for temporomandibular joint disorders and sleep apnea, custom sports mouthguards, and more. In-house dispensing eliminates the need to visit a separate pharmacy. English consultation is available, and the facility is wheelchair accessible with barrier-free design. Rigorous infection control measures include sterilization of instruments and disinfection of dental chairs for each patient. The clinic also supports online eligibility verification using My Number cards as part of healthcare DX initiatives. While appointment-based, the clinic accommodates emergency patients whenever possible.
