Yao Dental Clinic
About
Yao Dental Clinic, located in Kamifukuhara, Yonago City, Tottori Prefecture, is a community-rooted dental practice offering a broad range of services including general dentistry, oral surgery, and pediatric dentistry. The clinic addresses common concerns such as cavities, periodontal disease, and prosthetic treatment for missing teeth, while also providing examination, diagnosis, and treatment in the field of oral surgery—covering oral trauma, inflammation, cysts, tumors, salivary gland disorders, temporomandibular joint disease, and mucosal conditions. The pediatric dentistry department handles not only standard dental care but also conditions and functional impairments specific to children's growth and development. A defining characteristic of the clinic's treatment philosophy is its emphasis on informed consent: patients are given thorough explanations of their oral condition and proposed treatment plans so they can make well-informed decisions. The clinic also collaborates with primary care physicians to ensure safe dental treatment for patients with systemic diseases or a history of major surgery. Particular attention is paid to post-treatment relapse prevention, with proactive guidance provided from a preventive care perspective. Office hours are 9:00–12:30 and 14:30–18:30, with Saturday hours ending at 17:00. The clinic is closed on Thursdays, Sundays, and public holidays, although Thursdays during weeks that contain a public holiday are open. English-language support is available, and the facility is equipped with parking and barrier-free access, making it welcoming to a wide range of patients.
