About
Shimotsuji Dental Clinic, located in Neshogaki, Yamatotakada City, Nara Prefecture, is a dental practice inherited by Director Hiroko Shimotsuji from her father and renovated to provide community-based dental care. In addition to general dentistry, the clinic offers a wide range of services including oral surgery, pediatric dentistry, dentistry for patients with disabilities, home visit dental care, preventive care and cleaning, cosmetic dentistry, and teeth whitening. The director specializes in surgical treatments such as wisdom tooth extraction and temporomandibular joint disorders, providing care that takes systemic health conditions into consideration. For cases requiring advanced treatment, the clinic has established a collaborative system with Nara Medical University, enabling comprehensive care across a broad range of cases. In terms of infection control, the clinic implements thorough measures including Class B sterilizers meeting world-class standards, instrument cleaning using the Miele Jet Washer high-pressure washing system, and treatment water disinfection using the Poseidon dental unit waterline disinfection system. The facility features barrier-free design, creating an easily accessible environment for strollers and wheelchairs. For pediatric patients, the clinic takes a gentle approach, starting with simply getting children comfortable sitting in the dental chair and prioritizing care that respects each child's feelings. The clinic can accommodate English and Korean speakers and provides parking facilities. Appointments are required, with weekday hours from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM. The clinic is closed on Thursdays, Sundays, and public holidays.
