Nakashima Dental Clinic
About
Nakajima Dental Clinic is located in Katsuragi Town, Ito District, Wakayama Prefecture, just a 3-minute walk from Myoji Station on the JR Wakayama Line. Since its founding in 1955, this clinic has served the local community for nearly 70 years, and is currently operated by Dr. Yu Nakajima, the third-generation director. The clinic offers a comprehensive range of services including general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, preventive care, periodontal treatment, wire braces, clear aligner therapy (Invisalign), and implant treatment. The clinic places particular emphasis on prevention, practicing patient-focused care that looks to the future—from brushing instruction and fluoride application for cavity prevention in children, to periodontal disease prevention for adults. Dr. Nakajima completed graduate-level studies specializing in dentures and occlusal treatment, followed by advanced training in implantology, and holds a specialist certification in temporomandibular joints and occlusion from the Japanese Academy of Clinical Dental Prosthetics. English-speaking consultations are available, and the clinic accepts credit cards and electronic payments. The facility is fully accessible with barrier-free design, and parking is available for 4 vehicles in front of the clinic and 5 vehicles in a second lot nearby. The clinic is closed on Thursdays, Sundays, and public holidays, though it remains open on Thursdays during weeks that include a public holiday.
