Sik Sik Yuen Dental Clinic, Wong Tai Sin: 2026 Fees, Hours, Booking and Subsidies
On this page(13)

Sik Sik Yuen's Dental Clinic is on the ground floor of the Sik Sik Yuen Social Services Complex, 38 Fung Tak Road, Wong Tai Sin, and opened in 1999. It publishes no fee list online, so you need to WhatsApp or call 2321 3389 for prices and appointments.

There is no official rating that says whether a clinic is "good", and this site does not rate or rank clinics. This guide sets out what can be checked against Sik Sik Yuen's own website, the Department of Health (DH) and other public sources: where the clinic is, when it opens, what it treats, how to book, how to find out the fees, how CSSA and the Community Dental Support Programme work there, and where to complain. You can then judge whether it fits your needs. To compare it with other lower-cost options such as the FTU, Yan Chai and Caritas clinics, see Affordable dental care in Hong Kong 2026.

What is the Sik Sik Yuen Dental Clinic?

Sik Sik Yuen's medical services include a Chinese medicine pharmacy, two integrated Chinese medicine centres (Wong Tai Sin and Sheung Wan), a Western medicine clinic, the dental clinic, a physiotherapy centre and an optometry centre run with The Hong Kong Polytechnic University [2]. The dental clinic's page says it opened in 1999 and offers comprehensive dental care at an affordable price [1].

It is worth being clear about what it is not. This is a community clinic run by a non-profit organisation. It is separate from the DH government dental clinics' general public sessions and from hospital dental departments, which mainly serve in-patients and people with special needs. See the hospital dental services guide for those.

Address, phone and opening hours

The details below come from the clinic's official page [1].

Sunday and public holidaysClosed

Points to note:

  • No evening sessions. The clinic closes at 6pm on weekdays and opens only in the morning on Saturday. If you work office hours, you will need a Saturday morning slot or time off.
  • Lunch break from 1pm to 2pm.
  • Bad weather. The website lists typhoon and rainstorm arrangements, but the Chinese and English versions do not match, so phone before you set out when a warning is up.
  • For other public and non-profit options nearby, see dental care in Wong Tai Sin.

What it does and does not offer

The Chinese version of the clinic page lists the services as scaling and cleaning, fillings, extractions, root canal treatment and removable dentures [1]:

  • Scaling and fillings
  • Extractions
  • Root canal treatment
  • Removable dentures

Children. The Chinese page says the clinic added a children's dental clinic session under the Jockey Club – Sik Sik Yuen Healthy Teeth Project, funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club. The English page describes the project, launched in March 2018, as outreach talks and basic oral examinations for school children [1]. As the two versions differ, phone first to ask whether children are seen at the clinic now. For help choosing, see how to choose a children's dentist.

Treatments not mentioned. The service list says nothing about implants, braces, crowns or bridges. If you need one of these, ask first whether the clinic provides it. The website does not name its dentists either; you can check any dentist's registration and specialist status yourself on the Dental Council of Hong Kong registers [10].

How to find out the fees

Neither the dental clinic page nor the medical services overview lists any dental fees [1][2]; the English page says only "at an affordable price". We therefore do not reproduce any prices here. Figures circulating online are not published by the organisation and may be out of date. The reliable approach is to ask the same set of questions:

  1. How much is a check-up, and how are X-rays charged?
  2. How much is scaling? What about deep cleaning if I have gum disease?
  3. Are fillings charged per tooth or per surface?
  4. Roughly how much are extractions, root canal treatment and removable dentures? Are follow-up visits included?
  5. Does the clinic take part in the Community Dental Support Programme? Does it accept Elderly Health Care Vouchers? When is the earliest appointment?

The Consumer Council advises using registered dentists, asking about the treatment steps and costs once you have chosen a dentist, confirming before treatment whether there are any extra charges, and keeping all receipts and treatment records afterwards [12]. See how to read a dental quote, and for private-sector price ranges, the benchmarks for scaling and gum treatment, fillings, root canal treatment and removable dentures.

Published fee figures

This table lists only officially published figures. Private-sector ranges are not repeated here; each figure and its source is on the Hong Kong dental fees page.

RouteWho can use itWhat you paySource
Sik Sik Yuen Dental Clinic, self-payingAnyone, by appointmentNo fee list online; phone or WhatsApp to ask[1]
CSSA (the clinic says it is a designated CSSA dental clinic)CSSA recipientsNot set out on the website; confirm with your social worker[1]
Community Dental Support Programme (check first whether this clinic takes part)People receiving the Old Age Living Allowance or other listed allowances or services, registered with eHealthCheck-up, X-rays and pain medication free; Category B: $50 per filling or extraction, $50 for scaling, $50 per root canal tooth, $1,000 per removable denture; Category A: $500 per removable denture[4]
DH dental clinic general public sessions (not Sik Sik Yuen)Anyone; pain relief and extractions onlyFree for eligible persons; non-eligible persons $850 per visit plus $90 per drug item[8]

Subsidies: who can use them?

CSSA

The clinic says that since 3 August 2009 it has been one of the designated dental clinics under the CSSA scheme [1]. CSSA recipients can get a quote and treatment at a designated clinic; how the dental grant is applied for and how much is approved should be confirmed with your social worker.

Community Care Fund elderly dental: now replaced

The clinic's page still says it registered in 2015 as a Community Care Fund dental clinic for seniors [1]. The DH, however, states that the Community Dental Support Programme has expanded its scope and taken over the Community Care Fund Elderly Dental Assistance Programme [4]. The question older patients should ask now is whether the clinic takes part in the Community Dental Support Programme.

Community Dental Support Programme

Key points from the DH programme page [4]:

  • Eligibility: a valid Hong Kong identity card or Certificate of Exemption, registration with eHealth, and currently receiving the Old Age Living Allowance, a Community Care Service Voucher for the Elderly (co-payment level 2), specified home care or home support services, or a public hospital (HA) medical fee waiver. Homeless people referred by designated social workers are also eligible.
  • How often: every 180 days, an oral check-up, X-rays, pain medication and up to three filling or extraction quotas; every 365 days, one scaling and root canal treatment for one tooth; removable dentures at most twice, at least five years apart.
  • Use it or lose it: the participant notice says unused services cannot be carried into the next cycle [5].
  • How to join: contact a participating NGO dental clinic directly, or go through a registered social worker.
  • Vouchers: older people can use Elderly Health Care Vouchers to pay the programme's fees.

The Sik Sik Yuen clinic page does not mention the Community Dental Support Programme [1]. The DH has a search page for participating clinics by organisation and district [6]. A district council working group report from June 2025 lists two participating service points in Wong Tai Sin without naming them [7], so check the search page or phone the clinic before you go. The same report reminds participants to bring their identity card and proof of eligibility to the clinic [7]. For the full picture on elderly support, see elderly dental subsidies 2026 and Hong Kong dental subsidies.

Free health check day (already held)

Sik Sik Yuen held a free health check day in Wong Tai Sin from 22 to 24 October 2026, which included basic oral examinations and oral health education. Places were given out in person on a first-come basis, with no phone reservations [14]. This year's event is over; watch the organisation's announcements for future ones.

How to book, and how long is the wait?

The clinic asks patients to book by WhatsApp, by phoning 2321 3389 or in person at the clinic, and its page links to an online booking form; the English page states that prior appointment is required [1]. No waiting time is published, so ask for the earliest slot when you book. If you plan to use the Community Dental Support Programme, register with eHealth first and have proof of your allowance or service ready.

Wherever you go, you can check a dentist's registration and specialist status on the Dental Council registers [10]; the steps are in how to verify a dentist in Hong Kong.

Where to complain

  1. Raise it with the clinic first. Keep receipts, quotes and treatment records and phone the dental clinic on 2321 3389. Sik Sik Yuen's head office can be reached on 2327 8141 or at info@siksikyuen.org.hk [3].
  2. Community Dental Support Programme issues (eligibility, quotas and co-payments): see the DH programme page [4].
  3. Professional conduct: complaints about unprofessional conduct by a registered dentist go to the Dental Council of Hong Kong [11].
  4. Consumer disputes: you can complain to the Consumer Council [12].

When to see a dentist or doctor straight away

The UK NHS guidance on dental abscesses says to go to A&E if toothache comes with difficulty breathing, speaking or swallowing, a swollen or painful eye or sudden problems with your eyesight, a lot of swelling in your mouth, or difficulty opening your mouth [13]; in Hong Kong that means a hospital Accident and Emergency department. For daytime pain relief or an extraction, the DH runs general public sessions at 11 government dental clinics: register for the ballot online between 6:00am and 11:30am on the working day before, and half the places are reserved for people aged 65 or over [8]. There is no session in Wong Tai Sin; in Kowloon, Kowloon City Dental Clinic runs them on Monday and Thursday mornings and Kwun Tong Dental Clinic on Wednesday mornings [9]. See the toothache triage guide.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Sik Sik Yuen dental clinic any good?

There is no official rating. What can be verified: the clinic opened in 1999 on Fung Tak Road, Wong Tai Sin, provides scaling, fillings, extractions, root canal treatment and removable dentures, and has been a designated CSSA dental clinic since 2009. It opens until 6pm on weekdays and on Saturday mornings. It suits CSSA recipients and local residents; it does not suit people who need evening or Sunday care.

How much is scaling at Sik Sik Yuen? Is there a fee list?

No fee list is published online, so we do not quote prices; WhatsApp or call 2321 3389 to ask. If you are eligible for the Community Dental Support Programme, Category B participants pay $50 per scaling, provided the clinic takes part in the programme.

How do I book? Can I use WhatsApp?

Yes. The clinic accepts bookings by WhatsApp, by phone on 2321 3389 or in person, and links to an online booking form. An appointment is needed in advance.

Can older patients use subsidies or health care vouchers?

The DH says Elderly Health Care Vouchers can pay Community Dental Support Programme fees, but the Sik Sik Yuen page does not say whether the clinic takes part or whether vouchers are accepted for self-paid treatment, so ask the clinic. The Community Care Fund elderly dental programme mentioned on its page has been replaced by the Community Dental Support Programme.

Is it open on Saturday and Sunday?

Saturday from 9am to 1pm. Closed on Sundays and public holidays.
