Private (non-insured) part, tax included

Fees

The amounts shown are guides for the private (non-insured) part of treatment — crowns, dentures, orthodontic appliances and the like — and include tax. Some examinations and procedures may be covered by Japanese health insurance, in which case the insured co-payment is charged separately. After examination and diagnosis we give you a written treatment plan and estimate. Complex cases may exceed the ranges shown.

Temporomandibular disorders are treated with orthodontics that corrects the bite.
We do not, as a rule, place dental implants. We give priority to preserving teeth and treating the bite.
The condition after treatment can be affected by changes in your general or oral health (such as diabetes or stress), by smoking or alcohol, and by wear over time.
Treatment fees are finalised in the treatment plan and estimate after diagnosis.
