A Journey of Purpose & Care

Ikigai Dental was founded by two passionate sisters, Dr. Yi Yin and Dr. Yi Xing. We chose the name “Ikigai” because dentistry is not just our profession—it’s our purpose.

It brings us joy and fulfillment to help our patients achieve better health while making a positive impact on the community.

Every day, we are driven by the belief that true wellness goes beyond just dental care, and we are honored to be part of our patients’ journeys to a healthier, happier life.

Whether it’s a routine cleaning, a cosmetic enhancement, or restorative work, she takes pride in offering personalised care that emphasises patient comfort, education, and the latest in dental technology.
