About
Makabe Dental Clinic, operated by the medical corporation Mizuho-kai, is a dental care facility located in Makabe, Soja City, Okayama Prefecture. Mizuho-kai operates multiple clinics across Hiroshima, Yamaguchi, Okayama, Aichi, Tokyo, and Kanagawa prefectures, and is actively committed to adopting the latest medical technologies. The group places particular emphasis on visiting dental care for patients who have difficulty traveling to a clinic, providing dental treatment and oral care nearly equivalent to in-clinic services within patients' everyday living environments. The group also promotes the 8020 Movement—endorsed by the Ministry of Health (at the time) and the Japan Dental Association—which encourages people to retain at least 20 of their own teeth by age 80. The visiting care division works in close collaboration with care managers at residential support offices to improve oral health among elderly patients. In addition, the clinic focuses on dental check-ups from early childhood, fostering awareness of dental and oral health from a young age. In the field of sports dentistry, the group goes beyond sponsoring professional sports teams by supporting athletes' competitive performance through dental health management. Clinic hours are from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 1:30 PM to 6:30 PM, with closures on Sundays, public holidays, and the year-end and New Year period. English-language service is available, and the clinic offers on-site parking, making it convenient for patients traveling by car.
