General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

Whether the clinic documents treatment under general anaesthesia or deep / twilight sedation — "sleep dentistry", where the patient is asleep and unaware (does not feel, see, or hear the procedure). Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

  • ✗ General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — No general anaesthesia or deep sedation documented The children's centre offers nitrous oxide ('laughing gas') therapy, which is conscious sedation with the patient awake and responsive; no general anaesthesia or deep intravenous sedation is documented.

Summary

Hospital-grade dental practice (chigwa-byeongwon) occupying a whole floor of the KR Beopjo Tower in Incheon's Geomdan district, with an in-house dental laboratory, a dedicated children's centre and a roster of eleven named dentists including Ministry of Health board-certified specialists in orthodontics, prosthodontics, periodontics and oral & maxillofacial surgery. The site is published in nine languages. Registered with HIRA as Ye-on Chigwa-byeongwon, provider code 31401333, opened 2024-04-17.

Both name forms are published by the hospital itself — Ye-on Chigwa-byeongwon in Hangul and YE-ON Dental Hospital on its own English pages — so no romanisation was invented for the institution. Dentists are named only in Hangul; the Latin forms alongside them here are Revised Romanization and are labelled as such, except the director, whom the hospital's English page itself renders as "SUN-HO, CHANG". The hospital does publish a non-covered fee schedule, but only as an image inside a JavaScript modal, so the figures could not be read automatically and price transparency is left unverified and. Coordinates come from the HIRA register, not from a Google Maps place page. Note that a separate Ye-on Chigwa-uiwon operates in Guwol-dong, Namdong-gu under a different provider code; the address, phone and business registration number here all belong to the Geomdan hospital.

Price Transparency

9 / 15

Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.

✓ Prices or price ranges published Filled 2026-09-06. The footer non-covered fee schedule link opens two images, read in the browser: 'Ye-on Dental Hospital non-covered fee information', a five-column table (material / standard price / event price / other) covering implants, dentures, crowns, inlays, resin and paediatric treatment, and 'certificate issue fee information' for document fees. Every line carries a standing standard-price figure in units of KRW 10,000; the event-price column is a promotional price alongside it, not instead of it. [y1] 3/3
✗ Cleaning price listed The fee tables were read in full and carry no scaling line. Scaling is a covered benefit in Korea, so its absence from a non-covered schedule is expected. [y1] 0/2
✓ Filling price listed Resin: CA KRW 80,000, Pit.RF KRW 80,000, posterior (occlusal, proximal) KRW 100,000, anterior proximal surface KRW 150,000, diastema KRW 200,000, resin core KRW 50,000. [y1] 2/2

[y1] 2/2
✗ Consultation price listed Both fee images were read in full and neither carries a consultation or examination line. [y1] 0/2
✗ X-ray / imaging price listed Both fee images were read in full and neither prices imaging. The certificate issue fee table covers document issue only. [y1] 0/2

Reputation & Reviews

17.5 / 20

Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.

✓ Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) Star histogram read live on 2026-09-06 from the place page: 118 five-star, 1 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star, 3 one-star. The buckets sum to 122, matching the 122 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 4.893 reproduces the published 4.9. [gmp1] 6/6
◐ Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-06 from the place-page header; the star histogram sums to the same figure. [gmp1] 2/3
✓ Review recency Newest Google review is dated 2026-09-20 (listing read 2026-09-26). [yeon-dental-hospital-incheon-gbp-2026-09-26] 3/3
✓ Clinic responds to reviews The owner replies to Google reviews: 1 of the 9 reviews read carry an owner reply, the latest dated 2026-07-13. [yeon-dental-hospital-incheon-deepen] 2/2
✓ No recurring complaints None of the three reviews Google renders is critical. The histogram carries three one-star ratings out of 122 (2.5 per cent) that the visible sample cannot reach. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order. A newest-first sort was not available; a re-check on the Reviews tab returned the same three reviews, so no fresher slice is available. [gmp1] 2/2
✓ No suspicious review patterns Histogram shape, spread of wording and dates, and reviewer-account variety show no sign of manipulation. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order. A newest-first sort was not available; a re-check on the Reviews tab returned the same three reviews, so no fresher slice is available. [gmp1] 2/2
✗ Active Facebook presence The clinic's Facebook page has had no post since April 2024 and has no reviews; the clinic's website gd365.ye-on.com is its working channel. [yeon-dental-hospital-incheon-presence-2] 0/1
✗ TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "YE-ON Dental Hospital Incheon" and "YE-ON Dental"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor (checked 2026-10-05). [yeon-dental-hospital-incheon-tripadvisor] [yeon-dental-hospital-incheon-tripadvisor-2] 0/0.5
✓ Other review platforms Listed on Naver Place, South Korea's main local review platform, with 2,394 visitor reviews. [yeon-dental-hospital-incheon-presence] 0.5/0.5

Medical Infrastructure

13.5 / 15

The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.

✓ On-site X-ray HIRA's equipment register records a cone-beam CT at this institution. [reg2] 2/2
✓ CBCT (3D imaging) Returned by the HIRA institution search filtered on equipment code 12 (cone-beam CT) for Incheon / dental hospital; the hospital markets computer-analysed navigation implant placement. [reg2] [s1] 2/2
✓ Implantology [s1] 2/2
✓ Orthodontics Digital orthodontics with virtual diagnostic equipment and the hospital's own patented lingual technique, under two board-certified orthodontists. [s1] [s2] 2/2
✓ Oral surgery A Ministry of Health board-certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon is on the roster, and the director holds a WAUPS fellowship in oral and maxillofacial ultrasound surgery. [s2] 2/2
✓ Pediatric dentistry A dedicated paediatric 'worry-free dentistry' centre (the hospital's own name for it) with children's chairs and its own facilities, staffed by a dentist who completed a paediatric dentistry residency at Asan Medical Center; general treatment through to orthodontics is offered for children. [s1] [s2] 1.5/1.5
✗ Emergency care No emergency or walk-in route is documented, although the hospital opens seven days a week including Sundays and public holidays. [s3] 0/1.5
✓ Works with international patients The hospital publishes its site in nine languages, including English, Russian, Vietnamese, Mongolian, Arabic and Thai. [s3] 2/2

Communication & Service

4 / 10

How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.

✗ WhatsApp / LINE available Booking runs through KakaoTalk, Naver and an enquiry form; no WhatsApp or LINE contact is published. [s1] 0/2
? Response speed 0/1.5
? English spoken The hospital publishes an English version of its site but does not state that consultations are held in English. 0/2.5
✓ Pre-visit consultation possible Consultation request enquiry form plus Naver and KakaoTalk booking; the hospital advertises one-to-one dedicated consultation. [s1] 1.5/1.5
✓ Clear service explanations [s1] 1/1
✓ Convenient opening hours Mon, Wed and Fri 10:00–18:30; Tue and Thu 10:00–20:30; Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays 10:00–17:00. [s3] 1.5/1.5

AI & Search Visibility

5.5 / 10

Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Korea", "English speaking dentist Korea", "dental implants Korea", "emergency dentist Korea", "Korea dental clinic for expats".

✓ Mentioned for: best dentist Korea [sq] 1/1
✗ Mentioned for: English speaking dentist Korea Canonical query "English speaking dentist Incheon" re-run 2026-09-06 (method: web search 2026-09-06) after the initial data collection had used a form narrowed to the Songdo district. Checked and absent: the clinic appears in none of the results, so the narrowed query was not what suppressed it. [sqes] 0/1

✗ Mentioned for: emergency dentist Korea [sq] 0/1
✗ Mentioned for: Korea dental clinic for expats [sq] 0/1

✓ Dedicated service pages Separate sections for implants, laminates, custom orthodontics, the children's centre, aesthetic treatment and the in-house laboratory. [s1] 1.5/1.5

Licensing & Credentials

Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.

Clinic operating licence: HIRA provider code 31401333 — YE-ON Dental Hospital, dental hospital, individually owned, opened 2024-04-17, registered with HIRA at Incheon, Geomdan-gu, Ieum 4-ro 6, KR Beopjo Tower, 5th floor (Dangha-dong). Business registration number 895-52-00713, representative Sun-ho Chang, published by the hospital itself. (Verified live on 2026-09-04 in the HIRA register's detailed-criteria institution search (region = Incheon, type = dental hospital, institution name = 'Ye-on', typed in Hangul): exactly one result, whose address matches the hospital's own footer. A separate Ye-on Chigwa-uiwon (a dental clinic, provider code 31590977) operates in Guwol-dong, Namdong-gu and is a different institution; the director's biography notes he formerly headed Ye-on Chigwa's Guwol 365 branch. Korea has no clinic operating-licence number separate from the HIRA provider code, and the register is queried live, so no snapshot date applies.) [reg1] [s1]

2026-10-02Presence re-checked: presence on other review platforms — yes.
2026-09-29Corrected 2026-09-29: clinic responds to reviews now unverified: only 3 reviews were checked for owner replies; active Facebook presence now unverified: no Facebook search is on record, so the absence of a page is not established; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-20).
2026-09-06Data gate: the canonical city query "English speaking dentist Incheon" was re-run with web search because the initial data collection had run a form narrowed to the Songdo district. aiMention_englishSpeaking was re-evaluated against the canonical run and now cites it.
2026-09-06Checked by hand in a browser: Google Maps place page read live; the hospital's non-covered fee schedule modal opened and its image-only fee tables read, filling the seven price fields the research pass had to leave unchecked.
2026-09-04Initial data collection for the Korea Dental Transparency & Trust Index: verified via gd365.ye-on.com (Korean homepage, the medical-team page and the English version) and against the HIRA national institution register (provider code 31401333). The hospital's non-covered fee schedule is published only as an image inside a JavaScript modal, so price transparency is recorded as unverified and queued for a manual browser check. No public per-dentist licence search exists in South Korea, so the named specialists' licence numbers are recorded as unverified rather than as a negative finding.
