Questions & Answers about shika de shikakenshin to rentogen o ukemashita.

Why is 歯科 used twice in the same sentence?

They are doing two different jobs:

• The first 歯科 means the dental department / dental clinic as the place where the action happened.
• The second 歯科 is part of the compound noun 歯科健診, which means dental checkup.

So the structure is basically:

• 歯科で = at the dental clinic
• 歯科健診 = dental checkup

It may look repetitive in English, but in Japanese this is normal.

What does the particle で mean here?

で marks the place where an action happens.

So:

• 歯科で = at the dental clinic
• 受けました = underwent / had / received

Together, 歯科で tells you where the checkup and X-ray took place.

This is different from に, which often marks a destination, time, or target rather than the location of an action.

Why is と used between 歯科健診 and レントゲン?

と connects nouns and means and.

So:

• 歯科健診とレントゲン = a dental checkup and an X-ray

In this sentence, it gives a straightforward list of the things the speaker had done.
