About
Shima Orthodontic Clinic, located in Kuratsuki, Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, is a dental clinic specializing in orthodontic treatment. At the core of their practice philosophy are the concepts of "occlusal development" and "cause-based treatment" — not merely aligning teeth, but pursuing the fundamental reasons behind each patient's occlusal condition and providing support tailored to their developmental stage. Particularly in treating children, the clinic prioritizes a child-centered approach rather than advancing treatment based on adults' expectations. Orthodontic treatment is positioned as a means to "eat deliciously, speak happily, and live healthily throughout life," with comprehensive care addressing functions including chewing, swallowing, pronunciation, and breathing. Before treatment begins, the clinic conducts thorough examinations including X-rays, dental impressions, and various measurements, selecting the optimal treatment timing and appliances for each individual case. Regular visits are typically scheduled once every one to two months, with the clinic emphasizing collaboration with patients and families throughout the treatment period spanning several years. The clinic is equipped with parking facilities and is barrier-free, creating an accessible environment for various patients.
