Watanabe Orthodontic Dental Clinic
About
Located in the center of Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, Watanabe Orthodontic Clinic has been serving the community's orthodontic needs since its establishment in August 1999. Clinic Director Koichi Watanabe is a specialist who studied orthodontics at the Graduate School of Niigata University and holds certification from the Japanese Orthodontic Society, having also undergone orthodontic treatment himself. The clinic values the principle that "orthodontic treatment goals vary for each patient," dedicating sufficient time to pre-treatment counseling to determine the optimal treatment plan based on individual concerns and expectations. In terms of equipment, the clinic has introduced the latest devices including digital X-rays with reduced radiation exposure, dental CT that provides 3D imaging, and intraoral scanners, supporting the creation of clear aligner devices and post-treatment alignment simulations. The examination areas feature semi-private rooms separated by partitions, with a completely private space dedicated to initial consultations, demonstrating thorough attention to patient privacy. In addition to English language support, the clinic accepts multiple payment methods including credit cards and electronic money, and provides on-site parking. Appointments are required for all consultations, with clinic hours on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and alternating Sundays.
