Lion Dental Infirmary for Children (Tokyo, Japan)

Japanese children in dental examination chairs for an oral checkup at the Lion Dental Infirmary in Tokyo, Japan in 1924 (from the Eighth District Dental Society's Collection on international dentistry)

The scene shows a narrow dental clinic or training room with several people working at dental chairs. Multiple individuals in white coats attend to seated patients. Dental equipment, including overhead lights, drills, and trays, is arranged along both sides of the room. The space appears busy, with several procedures happening simultaneously. The environment includes windows along one wall and cabinets or shelving on the opposite side.
