Friendly family dental practice

Can anyone help me to locate an English speaking dental practice? (preferably one that takes National Health Insurance). I desperately need to get dental appointments for my family. Thanks very much

    You're in Fuchu in Tokyo, right? This link has some options in downtown Tokyo. https://bestlivingjapan.com/tokyo-english-speaking-dentists/ I can't speak for any of them personally but there is information about which do and don't accept JNHI. When I lived in Tokyo I was covered by international insurance at the time (now I'm in Niigata on JNHI though!) and went here http://www.tcdo.jp/StaffDentists/ which was very good, but pricey...and they don't take JNHI. Hopefully the other link has some options that might be good English speaking choices and there are several that accept Japanese insurance. Good luck!

    I'm not sure where you live, but my go-to dental clinic is Bluff Clinic in Yokohama. They are super family-oriented and everyone speaks English fluently. You can make reservations online and they accept NHI. However, you need to make a reservation a bit in advance because the spots tend to fill up quickly. Let me know if you have any more questions about them. :)

    @hellonihon, thank you for that info. I’m in Fuchu. Will have to check to see how far away Yokohama is from me. Awesome that it’s fully English speaking.

    http://japanhealthinfo.com This is a great place to contact if you want to find English speaking medical services. It only cost money if you have them make the appointment.

Is there a limit on daily posts?

Does anyone know if there is a limit on the number of posts we can publish each day? The reason I ask is, yesterday I wrote more than 30 posts, but I realized last night that at least the last two I wrote, have disappeared. They definitely published, but then disappeared a few minutes later. One was about a Santa in Nagoya, the other about Santa in Tamadairanomori. There maybe more but those two are definitely missing.

Where do you visit Santa Claus?

Firstly, do you visit Santa Claus each year in Japan? And if so, where? I've been posting places you can meet Santa Claus in various parts of Japan on the blog section. If you are looking for somewhere to meet him this year, you'll find at least 25 places on City-cost.

Did you feel the December 8th earthquake?

There was a large earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture at 11.15 pm on December 8th 2025. We are approximately 700 kilometers from the epicenter, yet we felt it very strongly. Did you feel it and how far away (roughly) are you from the epicenter?
