About
Kumamoto Dental Clinic is a community-based dental facility located a 7-minute walk from Shinkanaoka Station, surrounded by kindergartens, elementary schools, junior high schools, and residential areas, and offers English services.

In terms of treatment, not only does the clinic focus on early detection and prevention of cavities, but also on periodontal treatment, cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening, and more, with clear explanations of treatments provided for first-time visitors. Periodontal disease is explained as an infectious disease caused by bacteria in dental plaque that accumulates in the grooves between teeth and gums, and is categorized into four stages: healthy, gingivitis, mild periodontal disease, and moderate to severe. With periodontal pocket depths of 4-5mm, symptoms include bleeding during brushing and a feeling of teeth floating; at 6-7mm, symptoms include bad breath and pus from the gums; and at 8mm or more, teeth become loose. In terms of facilities, the clinic is equipped with a reception area, waiting room, X-ray examination room, treatment room 01, and treatment room 02. For ceramic treatments, the clinic supports various materials and technologies, including all-ceramic fillings and crowns produced using CAD/CAM technology with materials that have colors and properties close to natural teeth, as well as metal-bonded crowns and GES.
