Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Information Transparency
11 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website Own site live 2026-09-07. [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✗ | Dentist names listed Checked both the homepage and the site's own dedicated "L'équipe médicale" (medical team) page: neither names any individual dentist — the team page is generic marketing copy with no staff names or photos of named individuals. [s1] [s1b] | 0/3 |
| ? | Dentist specializations listed | 0/2 |
| ? | Real clinic photos Not established. The owner's lead image is a clinical close-up of a treated smile — genuine material published by the practice, but a clinical close-up is not premises, signage, team or equipment. | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Site title/description: 'chirurgien-dentiste ... spécialisé dans l[es implants dentaires pas chers]'. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Contacts are published on the clinic's own site and on its Google record, but the two disagree on the telephone number and the discrepancy is disclosed rather than resolved: the Google Business Profile, which the owner plainly maintains (it answers seven of the eight visible reviews and carries an owner post), publishes +33 4 91 77 60 44, while the clinic's own site publishes +33 4 69 00 14 78. Both are the clinic's own channels; neither was rung, and no reading of the browser pass can settle which is answered today. The card keeps the number the clinic publishes on its own site. [s1] [gmp1] [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | English website version No hreflang tags and no /en/ path found. [s1] | 0/2 |

Reputation & Reviews
16 / 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) Read live on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08. Unchanged from the headless reading of 2026-09-07. The star histogram — 126 five-star, 1 four-star, 0 three-star, 1 two-star and 4 one-star — sums to 132, matching the 132 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.848 reproduces the published 4.8. [gmp1] [gmp1b] [gmpb] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-08 from the place-page header, and the star histogram sums to the same figure. The card carried no count before this pass: the headless map method used in phase C returns the rating but never the review count, which is why every French card was queued to the browser worklist. [gmpb] | 2/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest review visible is one month old, which proves the within_3_months bucket and no better. Visible dates: 1, 1, 2, 2, 5, 5 and 5 months, and one ten years old. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner answers 7 of 8 of the reviews visible on the place page on 2026-09-08. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No criticism appears in the visible sample; the one- and two-star mass is 5 of 132 ratings, 3.8 %. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Judged on the histogram shape, the spread of dates, the variety of reviewers and the wording, on 2026-09-08. 126 five-star with a small genuine tail at four, two and one star; the visible reviews name different clinicians and treatments, run from one month to ten years, and the owner answers seven of the eight.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-08 | Browser pass (phase I): the clinic’s Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read on both its Reviews and Overview tabs. Recorded from it: the rating re-verified against the star histogram, the review count (previously unknown — the headless map method never returns it), the histogram itself (126/1/0/1/4 = 132, weighted mean 4.848), review recency, the owner-reply state, the complaint reading and the manipulation reading from the eight most-relevant reviews, the lead owner photograph and the full published opening week. Fields this pass did not measure are untouched. |
| 2026-09-07 | Adversarial verification pass (D-france). The Google place attribution was confirmed from the strongest possible source — the clinic's own maps.app.goo.gl link in its site footer resolves to exactly the place id and pin on the card. Rating 4.8 reproduced under a second query form. The phone discrepancy between the site and the Google listing is now recorded in the contacts note. Five service/AI fields were filled from the clinic's own treatment pages and its own aesthetic-dentistry subdomain. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial research pass. Surfaced by the wave-5 AV pass (dental implants Marseille). Own site read live including its dedicated team page, which confirms no individual dentist is named by the clinic itself. Google Maps headless probe resolved the exact POI (rating, address, geo); note the site's own listed phone (+33 4 69 00 14 78) differs from the number Google Maps shows for the same address (+33 4 91 77 60 44) — both recorded, discrepancy noted for the gate. |
