Shima Orthodontics

About

Shima Orthodontic Clinic is an orthodontic specialist located in Kuratsuki, Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and offers English services. The clinic features a parking lot and barrier-free accessibility. As one of its treatment philosophies, the clinic focuses on occlusal development, providing support tailored to the overall lifestyle of children in growth stages. Rather than merely providing symptomatic treatment, the clinic aims to pursue cause-focused treatment by investigating why such occlusion has developed, and once the cause is identified, prevention becomes possible alongside treatment. Regarding orthodontic treatment, the clinic aims not only to correct tooth alignment but to enable patients to eat deliciously, speak joyfully, and live a healthy life throughout their lifetime. Before treatment, thorough examinations are conducted including X-rays, photographs, and dental models, selecting the optimal timing and appliances based on the type of malocclusion. Regular visits are typically once every 1-2 months, and family cooperation is essential for treatment.
