Dr. Satsuma uniquely fuses traditional Japanese judo therapy with cutting-edge dental orthodontics, creating Craniofacial Skeletal Correction—a revolutionary approach focusing on the critical connection between jaw alignment and dental health. At age 43, he entered dental school to fully master this jaw-dental relationship, making him uniquely qualified for complex cases.
Dr. Satsuma has developed two signature techniques: The Satsuma Method®, a comprehensive system emphasizing prevention of postural distortions, and the Mewing Technique, an advanced tongue posture therapy for optimal facial development. These evidence-based approaches address root causes rather than just symptoms.
DWith over 23 years of practice in Tokyo’s Shibuya district and more than 400,000 successful cases, Dr. Satsuma’s evidence-based methodology successfully treats facial, jaw, and postural issues that traditional medicine often can’t resolve. His exceptional skill has earned the trust of national celebrities, cultural icons, and world-class athletes.
Dr. Satsuma’s groundbreaking work has been featured on Nippon TV’s “The Most Useful School in the World!” and numerous other health programs. He is also the published author of “90-Second Jaw Muscle Release” (Sekai Bunka-sha), sharing his expertise with a broader audience.

Sessions：First facial contouring session to realign
Chief complaint：Long facial structure, asymmetry in the jawline and corners of the mouth, and jaw clenching (bruxism).
Postoperativ：The left masseter was released, and depth was added to the right cheek to balance the facial contour. Facial muscle mobility was improved to facilitate elevation of the mouth corners. Mandibular traction was applied to induce posterior rotation of the mandible, helping to reduce the elongated facial appearance.
