Yang Dental Clinic: 2026 Fees, Opening Hours, Booking and Subsidies
On this page(13)

Yang Dental Clinic, run by the Yang Memorial Methodist Social Service, has five clinics in Wan Chai, Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok, Prince Edward and Tai Wo Hau. It publishes no fee list online, so you phone the clinic. Checked 2026-10-09.

There is no official score for whether a dental service is "good", and we do not rate or rank clinics. This guide sets out what Yang Dental Clinic itself publishes and what the government scheme rules say: where the clinics are, when they open, what they do, how to find out the fees, who qualifies for subsidies and where to complain. You can then judge whether it suits you. To compare it with the Federation of Trade Unions clinics, Yan Chai Hospital and other low-cost options, see our guide to affordable dental care in Hong Kong.

What is Yang Dental Clinic?

According to the milestones page on its website, the first clinic opened in 1968 on the ground floor of the Yang Memorial Social Service headquarters, with the aim of offering dental care at reasonable fees. Opening hours were extended in 1979, the Prince Edward clinic opened in 1992, the Asbury dental clinic merged in 2003 to become Yang Dental Clinic (Asbury), the Mong Kok clinic opened in 2010 and the Wan Chai clinic started in 2017 [1]. These are clinics run by a social service organisation that sets its own fees. They are separate from the Department of Health's government dental clinics.

The five clinics, phone numbers and hours

The details below come from Yang Dental Clinic's contact page. All clinics close on Saturday afternoons, Sundays and public holidays, and the page asks patients to book in advance [2].

If you can only go after work, note that Yau Ma Tei and Prince Edward run weekday evening sessions. The head office can be reached on 2251 0888 or ydc@yang.org.hk [2]. Hours can change, so check the website or call before you go. To see other public and non-profit options in the same district, use dental services by district.

What they do and do not do

Yang Dental Clinic's website groups its services as general dentistry, restorative dentistry, root canal treatment, periodontal treatment, oral and maxillofacial surgery and other services. The general dentistry page lists preventive care, scaling and polishing, whitening, extractions and fillings [3]; the "other services" page lists orthodontics and computer scanning [4]. The milestones page also says implant treatment was added in 2000 and clear aligners in 2008 [1].

Points to note:

  • Not every clinic offers every service: the website does not list services clinic by clinic. If you want implants, braces or oral surgery, ask the clinic you choose whether it does them and which dentist does them.
  • No Sunday, public holiday or Saturday afternoon sessions: for toothache on a holiday you need another route, see "When to get help now" below.
  • No fee list online: you need to ask each clinic.

How to find out the fees

As of 9 October 2026, Yang Dental Clinic's website shows no prices for self-paid treatment and no downloadable fee list. Its Elderly Card page only says to refer to the clinic's fee schedule [5], which means you see the fee list at the clinic or ask by phone. "Yang dental fee lists" circulating online are not published by the organisation on its website and may be out of date. The safest approach is to phone the clinic you want and ask the same set of questions:

  1. How much are the check-up and X-rays?
  2. How much is scaling? What if gum disease needs deep cleaning?
  3. Are fillings charged per tooth or per surface?
  4. Roughly how much are extractions, root canals and dentures? Are follow-ups included?
  5. Is there an elderly discount? Do I qualify for a subsidy scheme? When is the earliest appointment?

The Consumer Council advises people to use registered dentists, to ask about the treatment and expected fees beforehand, including whether consultation, X-ray and medicine fees are charged separately, and to keep all receipts and treatment records [14]. For how to read a quote, see how to read a dental quote.

Fee comparison: Yang Dental Clinic and other routes

Subsidies: who can use them?

Community Dental Support Programme

Yang Dental Clinic has a page on the Community Dental Support Programme. It says applicants must be receiving the Old Age Living Allowance, the Community Care Service Voucher for the Elderly (second-tier co-payment), specified home care services, or an HA medical fee waiver. An admin fee of $50 per filling or extraction quota is paid to the organisation, and the government pays it in full for some groups, such as Old Age Living Allowance recipients aged 75 or over [6]. The page does not say which of the five clinics take part, so ask when you call.

The Department of Health's programme page says applicants need a valid Hong Kong identity card or Certificate of Exemption and must be enrolled in eHealth; homeless people referred by social workers of designated NGOs also qualify. Every 180 days you can have a check-up, X-rays and up to three filling or extraction quotas; every 365 days, one scaling and one root canal; removable dentures up to twice, at least five years apart, if you have fewer than 20 teeth left and a dentist finds a need [9]. You can choose a participating clinic and phone it directly, or ask a registered social worker to arrange it; older people can pay co-payments with Elderly Health Care Vouchers [9]. For the full picture, see dental subsidies in Hong Kong.

Teen dental pilot

Yang Dental Clinic has a page on the teen pilot. Services include check-ups, scaling and fluoride treatment, and users pay only the co-payment the dentist set when joining [7]. The scheme started on 20 March 2025 for 13- to 17-year-olds (or those turning 13 in the year they apply) who hold a Hong Kong identity card and are enrolled in eHealth. The Department of Health's list of participating dentists also shows their fees for X-rays, fillings and extractions [10].

CSSA dental grant

Yang Dental Clinic's website says that under the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance scheme, recipients who are elderly, or certified by a doctor as disabled or in ill health, can receive a dental grant covering scaling, fillings, extractions, dentures, crowns, bridges and root canal treatment. For details, ask the Social Welfare Department or the clinic [8].

Elderly vouchers and outreach

Yang Dental Clinic has a page on the Elderly Health Care Voucher scheme and asks older people to phone the clinics about using them [13]. Since 2011 it has also run outreach dental services for elderly residential care homes, elderly centres and rehabilitation centres [1]. If a family member lives in a care home, ask the home whether it takes part.

How long is the wait?

Neither Yang Dental Clinic's website nor the Community Dental Support Programme page publishes waiting times [2][9]. Each clinic is different, so ask directly: "What is the earliest slot for self-paid and for subsidised patients?" The five clinics are in Wan Chai, Yau Tsim Mong and Kwai Chung, which is handy for follow-ups if you live or work nearby.

Wherever you go, you can check a dentist's registration and specialist status on the Dental Council of Hong Kong registers [15]; see how to verify a dentist in three steps.

How to complain

  1. Talk to the clinic first: keep receipts, quotes and treatment records, and raise it by phone or by emailing the head office.
  2. Subsidy scheme questions: for eligibility or co-payments, contact the Community Dental Support Programme [9].
  3. Professional conduct: the Dental Council handles complaints about unprofessional conduct by registered dentists and publishes a complaints pamphlet [16].
  4. Consumer disputes: you can complain to the Consumer Council [14].

When to get help now

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, go to A&E now [17]. Yang Dental Clinic is closed on Sundays and public holidays. For daytime pain relief or an extraction, the Department of Health's 11 government dental clinics run general public sessions: register for the online ballot from 6am to 11:30am on session days, and half the places go first to people aged 65 or over [11]. For triage, see what to do about toothache.

FAQ

Is Yang Dental Clinic any good?

There is no official rating. What you can check: five clinics, open Monday to Saturday mornings, offering general dentistry plus restorative, root canal and gum treatment, weekday evening sessions in Yau Ma Tei and Prince Edward, and website pages on the Community Dental Support Programme and the teen pilot. It suits people on a budget and those eligible for subsidies; it does not suit Sunday or holiday emergencies.

Does Yang Dental Clinic have a fee list?

As of 9 October 2026, the website shows no self-paid prices and only refers to the clinic's fee schedule, so you see it at the clinic or ask by phone. Subsidy co-payments are published officially, for example $50 per filling under Category B of the Community Dental Support Programme.

How do I book, and how long is the wait?

The website asks patients to book in advance, so phone the clinic. For the Community Dental Support Programme, a registered social worker can also arrange it. Waiting times are not published, so ask when you call.

Does Yang Dental Clinic open in the evening or on Saturdays?

Yau Ma Tei and Prince Edward run weekday evening sessions from 6pm to 8:30pm. On Saturdays the clinics open in the morning only, with Wan Chai open on alternate Saturdays; all close on Sundays and public holidays.

Can I use Elderly Health Care Vouchers there?

The website has a voucher page and asks older people to phone the clinics. Co-payments under the Community Dental Support Programme can also be paid with Elderly Health Care Vouchers.
