About
Tanabe Dental Clinic is located just a short walk from JR Soja Station in Soja City, Okayama Prefecture, and has been serving the local community for over 40 years since its founding in 1983. The clinic director, Dr. Akira Tanabe, holds a doctoral degree in dentistry from Aichi Gakuin University Graduate School and brings extensive experience from positions at the Aichi Cancer Center Research Institute and a university hospital oral surgery department. He is also a member of the Japan Dental Oriental Medicine Society and the Japan Systemic Occlusion Society. A defining feature of this clinic is its integrative approach that combines Western and Eastern medicine — incorporating low-frequency therapy, acupuncture, and moxibustion to stimulate acupoints for relief of dental pain and teeth clenching, among other unique treatment methods. Prior to treatment, thorough counseling and detailed examinations are conducted, and individualized treatment plans are proposed based on each patient's condition, with particular emphasis on minimizing treatment-related pain. The clinic also focuses on occlusal (bite) checks and regular maintenance, practicing a philosophy of care that considers not only oral health but overall systemic wellbeing. Multiple dentists, including Dr. Kazumune Tanabe, are on staff, enabling the clinic to handle a wide range of specialties including implants and orthodontics. English-language consultations are available, and the clinic accepts credit cards and electronic payments. Parking and barrier-free facilities are fully equipped, and appointments are required, allowing for smooth visits with minimal waiting time.
