Themed dental care is a dental service that is gradually gaining popularity in island nations. Literally, it is the dentist who wears different types of clothing to give the customer's teeth a new look with one-on-one personalized service.
The business hours from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m. are also different from other hospitals, so otaku don't have to worry about getting up too early, and it's never too late for business people to go back to work overtime.
Although the consultation fee is double that of a general dental hospital, people who have been there say that they will come again.
According to statistics, 75% of Japanese people have some degree of dental phobia, and 5-10% of Japanese adults suffer from dental phobia. In addition, the rate of regular dental check-ups in Japanese is only 2%, which results in an average of 9 remaining teeth in 80-year-olds in Japan.
That is, because they are afraid of receiving dental treatment, they avoid going to the dentist at all costs until the mask can no longer block the odor from their gums.
Theme Dental Clinics can effectively solve these problems.
"Our hygienists are able to help calm people with dental phobia, while free dental consultations are key to gently coaxing the nervous type into the dentist's chair."
"Top-of-the-line medical equipment, tailor-made dental services. For our target customers, there's nothing more comfortable than turning a cold hospital into a familiar scene. ”
In themed dental clinics, oral hygiene and treatment are the basics, while dentists are opted for as high value-added services.
When you call or make an appointment on the official website, the customer service will ask you in a sweet voice, maid, JK, bunny girl, female boss...... Who will be honored to serve you. If you have a special preference, you can also ask for details such as double ponytails and balls.
"We don't work with children." In this regard, Tang Chuan, the attending physician of Akiba Dental, said. It may sound a little strange, but Japanese people love to eat this set.
"I'm so scared to go to my teeth." Nakazawa, the minister of a technology company, was tormented by periodontitis.
"And that all started to change after she met Miss Riko. With a healing smile, Miss Riko tied my hands with ribbons...... The screeching sound of an electric drill is also not worth mentioning. ”
"Koharu-chan said to me in a singing costume Come on, I feel like I'm in a support club, and it's the kind that is chartered."
After cleaning his teeth, Shota was full of spring and happily made an appointment for the next consultation, "This is the most correct decision I have made this year." ”
Due to the good reputation of zero negative reviews, the theme dentist clinic had a booming business for a while, and the "Pure Healing" dental clinic, which is famous for manufacturing tiger teeth, also took the opportunity to launch a women's choice.
The "Teeth Cleaning Service with Your Head on Your Legs" is provided by a handsome "butler" in a tuxedo, and the price is 9,800 yen per visit.
Dr. Masuoka showed his signature smile in the promotional video: "It is our purpose to serve the honorable Ojosama with a friendly smile, gentle eyes and manners, and a meticulous and professional attitude. ”
Some dental hygienists have gained a large number of fans because of their excellent appearance and outstanding professional ability. Theme Dental Clinic is also happy to create such a star dentist and regards it as its core competitiveness.
Sayaka Luno is one of them. Last year, she was selected for the "Yai Matsuri 2021" Girl Contest with the strong support of her fans and released her first single "Toothpaste Rap".
On the day the results were announced, fans not only spent a huge amount of money to buy the LED screen in the prime location, but also spontaneously gathered here to witness the glory of the idol's debut.
As the idol dentist of the clinic, Kano Ogata has captured a large number of patients with her versatile looks, and she also knows that in order to maintain her popularity, the combination effect of one plus one is greater than the sum of its parts.
With the consent of the clinic, she and Rina, who ranked third in popularity, opened a channel on YouTube called "Dentist for You", which not only had a popular cross-dressing session, but also a late-night conversation that made fans want to stop, such as "what to do if you fall in love with a patient".
In the 2021 Ideal Career, the theme dentist defeated the club's female public relations with a margin of 4,000 votes and was selected as the fifth place voted by a Japanese women's magazine.
In the reason column, 27-year-old Mai Hanano wrote: "Theme dentists can have higher incomes than ordinary people and the satisfaction of popularity, and the privacy and security of medical institutions also isolate most harassment." ”
"This is much luckier than the underground idol who struggles in poverty and is asked to give 'cool benefits' to fans, and it is also longer than the female public relations who turns day and night upside down and relies on hangover pills every day to survive."
However, for most people, it is still a bit difficult to understand the way that themed dental clinics can subdivide the scene and create experience competitiveness in a peculiar direction.
They think that the clinic should have a formal appearance, and it is all false to do so many fancy things on the doctor, but the money spent is real.
Formalism is supreme, and perhaps this is the strangeness of Japan as a country.
