Uji Dental Clinic
About
Uji Dental Clinic, located in Ichinomiya-cho, Aso City, Kumamoto Prefecture, serves the Aso region as a dental care provider. The clinic primarily offers general dental care and maintains a system to accommodate dental emergencies, responding promptly to sudden tooth pain and other urgent issues. For patients who have difficulty visiting on weekdays, Saturday appointments are available. Parking is provided with 6 spaces next to the clinic and 5 nearby, totaling 11 spaces. The facility is wheelchair accessible, with measures in place to eliminate steps and accommodate patients using wheelchairs. During treatment, the clinic uses photographs of the patient's oral cavity displayed on a TV monitor or tablet, explaining treatment content in easy-to-understand terms without medical jargon. This visual approach enables patients to understand their own oral condition and participate in treatment planning. The clinic also focuses on pediatric dental checkups and treatment, with dentists and staff creating a friendly atmosphere to help children become comfortable with dental visits and develop an interest in their own oral health. In preventive dentistry, the clinic offers PMTC (Professional Mechanical Tooth Cleaning) using specialized equipment to remove oral debris, recommending regular checkups to prevent tooth decay recurrence and enable early detection. For patients with dental anxiety, nitrous oxide inhalation sedation is available to help them receive treatment in a relaxed state. Multilingual support including English and Korean is offered, and credit cards and electronic payments are accepted for convenience. The clinic is led by Director Nobuhiro Uji.
