Dental Clinics in Japan: lead lists

Japan has more dental clinics than convenience stores in many areas, which makes competition for patients intense. Clinics are increasingly investing in websites, online booking and self-pay treatments such as implants and orthodontics.

Doing business with dental clinics in Japan

Medical advertising in Japan is regulated under the Medical Care Act, so claims on websites and ads must follow government guidelines. The director dentist usually makes the final decision, and staff shortages (dental hygienists) are a common pain point.

Call during the midday break or just after closing. Avoid the start of the fiscal year in April and the busy year-end period.
