Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within a year (newest review dated 2026-06-05). |
| 2026-09-17 | Re-read of the clinic's Google listing on 2026-09-17. Corrected: the listing's own rating histogram, 62 five-star against 5 one-star ratings in 67 reviews, with readable reviews spread from 2016 to 2025 and written by accounts with their own review histories, shows neither a repeated complaint nor a sign of review manipulation. Both had previously been recorded as confirmed without a supporting observation. |
| 2026-09-17 | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (services, team, gallery and contact pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine premises photos on the site's gallery; chairside X-ray equipment visible in a photo; no orthodontics, pediatric or emergency service documented across the full service menu; no WhatsApp contact; an online inquiry form for a free quote; Google Business Profile hours meeting the evening-hours threshold; the owner has replied to reviews; no TripAdvisor listing found; newest readable Google review is about 19 months old. Still unverified: CBCT/3D imaging. |
| 2026-09-11 | Rechecked whether this practice answers its Google reviews. No single Google listing is on record for it (the link held is a name search), so the criterion was left unscored instead of credited. |
| 2026-08-27 | Initial data collection and live verification, 2026-08-27/28: website content, Google Maps rating/reviews, and AI/search visibility for the methodology's five fixed queries. |
