Dentisist in Japan

Today is just a short post on a topic that has come up for me in the past.

Dentisist in Japan operate a little bit different than they do in the US. Here no appointment is necessary. So sometimes the wait is a little long but there are enough densist around that it is not too bad.

The second item that comes up is that when the dentist cleans your teeth he or she only does one half at one time. So when I went they cleaned by lower jaw first and then I went back a week later and they cleaned my upper jaw.

The price for this is quite reasonable or at least what I ended up paying. In Japan the the health care system is government operated so that makes prices reasonably cheap and espically for students.

Thats it for now,
