General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation
Whether the clinic documents treatment under general anaesthesia or deep / twilight sedation — "sleep dentistry", where the patient is asleep and unaware (does not feel, see, or hear the procedure). Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.
- ✗ General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — No general anaesthesia or deep sedation documented Wisdom-tooth extraction documented as done under local anaesthesia only; no GA/deep sedation mentioned [the-madeleine-dental-practice-sedation]

Reputation & Reviews
16.5 / 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. The star histogram — 266 five-star, 2 four-star, 2 three-star, 4 two-star and 9 one-star — sums to 283, matching the 283 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.809 reproduces the published 4.8. This place is shared with the card la-smile-clinic: one Google Business Profile, one address, one telephone and one website serve both cards. The same figures are recorded on both and the duplication is raised for the gate. [the-madeleine-dental-practice-refresh] [gmpb] | 6/6 |
| ◐ | 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 held 282 and the listing has grown by 1 since. [the-madeleine-dental-practice-refresh] [gmpb] | 2.5/3 |
| ◐ | Review recency The newest review visible is six months old, which proves the within_year bucket and no better. Visible dates: 6 and 8 months, then 1, 1, 2, 2, 2 and 2 years. The bucket the card already carried, now proved on a measured sample rather than inferred. 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] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | 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 One readable negative in the visible sample: a two-star from a patient whose gums the dental assistant injured several times during a cleaning, which the reviewer calls unskillful; the account breaks off at Google's truncation, which the browser cannot expand. A single account does not establish a repeated theme; the one- and two-star mass is 13 of 283 ratings, 4.6 %. 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. 266 five-star with a genuine tail at every level below; the visible reviews name three different clinicians, describe wisdom-tooth surgery, orthodontics and routine care at very different lengths, and run from six months to two years.

| gmpb | https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/@48.8699838,2.3269756,17z/data=… | The clinic’s Google Maps place page, opened in a real browser on 2026-09-08 by the wave-5 phase-I browser pass (agent I-1). The Reviews tab (this URL) gives the headline rating, the review-count header, the five star-histogram buckets read whole from their accessibility labels, and the eight most-relevant reviews with their star values, dates, text and owner replies; the sibling Overview URL https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/@48.8699838,2.3269756,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x47e66f221a265161:0xcedf57c474fda192!8m2!3d48.8699838!4d2.3269756?hl=en gives the listing name, address, telephone, website, business category, the full published opening week and the lead owner photograph. The listing opens as «Le Cabinet Dentaire de la Madeleine | Paris — with every letter of that name written on the Business Profile in Unicode mathematical-bold characters rather than ordinary Latin letters», category Dentist, at 8 Bd de la Madeleine, 75009 Paris · +33 1 40 70 95 64 · cabinet-dentaire-madeleine.com — the card’s own identifiers, so the place identifier resolves to this practice.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-09 | Duplicate card removed at gate E2 (wave 5). "la-smile-clinic" was a second card for this same practice — identical address (8 Boulevard de la Madeleine), telephone (+33 1 40 70 95 64), website (cabinet-dentaire-madeleine.com), WhatsApp number and Google place (feature id 0x47e66f221a265161:0xcedf57c474fda192) — and both cards carried the same measured reputation figures after the phase-I browser pass. The clinic’s own home page settles which brand is current: "La Smile Clinic Paris devient le Cabinet Dentaire de la Madeleine", and its Business Profile is titled "Le Cabinet Dentaire de la Madeleine | Paris". This card is kept under the current brand and already discloses the former one; merged into <this card>, same address/phone/site/place. No data was lost: the two cards were field-identical. |
| 2026-09-08 | Reputation measured live on 2026-09-08 by the wave-5 phase-I browser pass (agent I-1), which opened this clinic’s Google Maps place page in a real browser on both its Reviews and Overview tabs. This card enters the country directory as a twin and carries no entry in data/research/*.json, so import-research.js never touched it and respondsToReviews, recurringComplaints and suspiciousReviewPatterns had never been assessed at all. Written now: googleRating 4.8 → 4.8 (unchanged, re-verified); googleReviewCount 282 → 283 (histogram 266/2/2/4/9 = 283, weighted mean 4.809); reviewRecency within_year (unchanged, now proved); respondsToReviews null → true; recurringComplaints null → false; suspiciousReviewPatterns null → false. The histogram sums to the place-page header count exactly and its weighted mean reproduces the published rating to one decimal. Fields this pass did not measure are untouched. The country twin was re-synchronised from this card in the same step; the two copies are identical except for the twin’s city key. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against ONCD annuaire: all 12 named doctors found with matching RPPS numbers; 11 of 12 match the clinic address exactly, one (Dr Joseph Dardas) matches on name+specialty but the registry lists a different Paris address (44 Bd de Reuilly, 75012) -- flagged for human review rather than marked false. FINESS clinic-establishment search could not be completed (SPA requires browser session, unavailable this session); mentions-legales shows only a commercial RCS number for SELARL MONTAIGNE TREMOILLE. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Wisdom-tooth extraction documented as done under local anaesthesia only; no GA/deep sedation mentioned |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: website live at cabinet-dentaire-madeleine.com, address/phone unchanged, clinic open. This entity is now the merged practice absorbing 'La Smile Clinic' (smile-clinic.fr permanently redirects here; the site itself says 'formerly Smile Clinic Paris'). Newly captured Google rating 4.8 (282 reviews), geo coordinates and Maps URL. Sedation research: site states wisdom-tooth extraction is done under local anaesthesia only — no GA/deep sedation documented. |
