Affordable Dental Care in Yakima, WA
This page lists 6 reviewed dental clinics in Yakima, WA. They are run by 2 separate health center organizations — Yakima Valley Farm Workers Clinic and Yakima Neighborhood Health Services. That matters when you are calling around: each keeps its own books, its own waiting list and its own sliding fee schedule, so being turned away by one says nothing about the next.
The 6 clinics sit across 2 different Yakima ZIP codes. That spread means the closest one to you is not necessarily the first on this list. Search by ZIP code, and factor in the journey rather than the mileage.
The nearest other Washington cities with listings are Naches at about 14 miles (1 clinic), Toppenish at about 17 miles (1 clinic) and Ellensburg at about 28 miles (1 clinic). Distances are as the crow flies. It is worth calling across town boundaries: a clinic twenty minutes further out can be weeks sooner.
2 of the 6 Yakima locations have no website, so calling is the only way to find out what they offer. The other 4 carry links on the listing, though an organization-wide website often will not say which of its sites runs a dental clinic.

Before you travel across Yakima, settle the things these listings cannot: what to ask on the phone, how the sliding fee discount is applied for, and which door to use when it is urgent and money is short. If you think what you have might be an emergency, go to an emergency room rather than onto a dental waiting list; the price of that visit is not the thing to weigh in that moment.
