How much does a dentist in Japan cost?
When a foreigner goes to a dentist in Japan, besides the language barrier, another concern is the cost of treatment. In Japan, common dental treatments such as cavity treatment and removal of tartar are covered by health insurance. In such cases, 30% of the treatment cost is paid by the patient, and the remaining 70% is covered by insurance.
The cost varies depending on the nature of the treatment, but unless the treatment is a special one, the amount to be paid out-of-pocket for a single visit is usually between 2,000 yen and 5,000 yen. However, in many cases, multiple visits to the clinic are required, so the total treatment cost will be a reasonable amount.
For insured patients, many dentists only accept cash payment. Few places accept credit cards, so be sure to bring cash. On the other hand, for free treatment (treatment not covered by insurance), many dentists accept credit card payment. It is a good idea to check the payment method on their websites in advance.
To reduce the number of visits to the hospital, it is important to keep your teeth healthy by brushing them well on a regular basis. You should also go for regular checkups and cleanings. Taking frequent care of your teeth is the key to avoiding expensive treatment.
How to make a dentist appointment in Japan
When making an appointment with a dentist in Japan, appointments are usually made by phone or through a website. In particular, an increasing number of dentists now offer 24/7 appointments through their websites.
To make an appointment by phone, tell the dentist your symptoms and the date and time that is convenient for you. Whether or not we can accommodate your request depends on the availability of the dentist, but appointments are usually available from a few days to a week or more in advance.
On the other hand, booking through a website is attractive because you can choose the date and time while carefully checking availability at your own pace. However, there are still not many places that support English. If you are not confident in your Japanese, we recommend that you choose a dentist who has an English version of their website.
Whether by phone or website varies from dentist to dentist, so it is a good idea to check the website in advance to see how to make an appointment.
You can also specify the day and time of the week.
When making an appointment, you can also specify a specific day and time, such as "Monday afternoon" or "Saturday morning. However, the more detailed your request, the more difficult it will be to make an appointment, so we recommend that you keep your request within a certain range.
The first visit usually takes longer than a second visit because of the interview and examination. 1 hour is often expected, but it varies from dentist to dentist. If you are concerned about the amount of time it will take, it is a good idea to ask in advance at the time of your appointment, "How long will it take for my first visit?" If you are concerned about the time it will take, you can ask in advance when you make an appointment, "How long will my first visit take?
English-speaking dentists tend to fill up their appointments. You should adjust your schedule as soon as possible.
