He graduated from Aichi Gakuin University School of Dentistry in 1987, later earning a Doctor of Medicine degree from Aichi Medical University in 2002. 

With experience as a Visiting Researcher at the University of Minnesota, he obtained the American Board of Endodontics Certification in 2010. He now focuses on research and training specialists at Tokyo Dental University after returning to Japan in 2021.
