{Abstract}: After two and a half decades of preparation, and prompted by advocacy from the World Health Organization in 2014, the Health Bureau of Hong Kong recently implemented the city's primary healthcare blueprint. Integrated within it is an approach to primary oral healthcare. This review provides a brief background and discusses the development of primary oral healthcare in Hong Kong - a developed economy in Asia dominated by private dental services.
