| 2026-10-02 | Garcia-Bais Dental Clinic | Searched Facebook for the clinic (no page) and read its WhatClinic profile on 2026-10-02: children's treatment listed, traditional X-rays only, quote requests possible, no WhatsApp. |
| 2026-10-02 | Garcia-Bais Dental Clinic | Prices are now taken from the clinic's own WhatClinic profile (it has no website): consultation, X-ray, filling, cleaning and crown prices are published there; implants are not priced (read 2026-10-02). |
| 2026-10-02 | Halasan Dental Clinic | Online presence checked 2026-10-02: Hospital Examiner listing found at the clinic address. |
| 2026-10-01 | Affinity Dental Clinics Cebu | Re-checked 2026-10-01 on the clinic's Google listing (most relevant and lowest-rated reviews) and its WhatClinic profile: no recurring complaint (8% one- or two-star, the five lowest on different matters) and no suspicious review pattern; work with foreign patients and English communication documented by Google reviews from Swiss and American patients; WhatClinic presence re-read (3 verified reviews). |
| 2026-10-01 | Alora Dental Clinic | Reviews on other platforms re-checked: no clinic profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed or Trustpilot; the ratings widget cited earlier only repeated the clinic's Google reviews, so this is now marked no. |
| 2026-10-01 | Bright Smiles Oral Care Center | Reviews on other platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic or Dental Departures, and the Foursquare listing could not be opened, so this is now marked unknown. |
| 2026-10-01 | CPS Dental Surgery & Implant Centre | Re-checked 2026-10-01: the practice's Facebook page has no posts and no reviews, so an active Facebook presence is no longer recorded; WhatClinic profile re-read (5 verified reviews); Prof. Charles P. Sia rests on the practice's own website. |

| 2026-10-01 | Dental World Manila | Reviews on other platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic or Dental Departures, and the Yelp listing could not be opened, so this is now marked unknown. |
| 2026-10-01 | Dental World Manila | Read on 2026-10-01: the clinic has its own page on a review platform (yelp.com), so it is present on other review platforms. |
| 2026-10-01 | Dentoq Dental Collective | Facebook presence now rests on the page itself: 27 posts in the past year and an About section with its contacts. |
| 2026-10-01 | Fuentes Dental Studio | Dentist names and specializations re-read on the clinic's own channels (its Facebook page and Google listing): neither names any dentist, so both are now false; the names had come only from directory profiles. No website: confirmed on the same two channels. |
| 2026-10-01 | Fuentes Dental Studio | TripAdvisor re-checked 2026-10-01: its own search returns no profile for the clinic. |

| 2026-10-01 | Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center (GAOC) | Read on 2026-10-01: the clinic has its own page on a review platform (yelp.com), so it is present on other review platforms. |

| 2026-10-01 | Garcia-Bais Dental Clinic | Re-checked 2026-10-01: TripAdvisor has no profile for the clinic; on the clinic's WhatClinic profile it is open on Saturdays (9:00-16:00), so convenient hours are now recorded, and it lists an on-call emergency service; its Google listing gives no hours. |
| 2026-10-01 | Green Apple Dental Clinic Cebu | Presence on other review platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures or Bookimed, so this criterion is now no. |

| 2026-10-01 | Green Apple Dental Davao (Urbidontics Dental Clinic) | Searched TripAdvisor on 2026-10-01 for the clinic by both of its names and checked its website: no TripAdvisor listing, so TripAdvisor presence is recorded as absent. |
| 2026-10-01 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Specializations and service list re-based on the clinic's own Facebook page instead of a directory profile. Values unchanged. |
| 2026-10-01 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Presence on other review platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures or Bookimed, so this criterion is now no. |
| 2026-10-01 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Re-checked 2026-10-01 on the clinic's Facebook page and Google listing: website, dentist, contacts and Facebook presence now rest on its own channels; Saturday opening (10 AM-4 PM) now counts as convenient hours; TripAdvisor has no profile for the clinic. |
| 2026-10-01 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Read the clinic's Facebook page in full for the past year and its Google listing on 2026-10-01: no CBCT, children's or emergency care is documented. |
| 2026-10-01 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Read the clinic's Facebook page header on 2026-10-01: its "Book" button opens an appointment picker, so online booking is possible; it offers no WhatsApp contact. |

| 2026-10-01 | Halasan Dental Clinic | TripAdvisor re-checked 2026-10-01: its own search returns no profile for the clinic. |
| 2026-10-01 | Romero-Rosas Dental Clinic | Re-checked 2026-10-01: TripAdvisor has no profile for the clinic, and no other review platform carries the Jaro clinic - WhatClinic lists only the practice's Bacolod branch, without reviews. |
| 2026-10-01 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Re-checked 2026-10-01 on the clinic's Facebook page and WhatClinic profile: contacts, address, the absence of an own website and the Facebook presence now rest on its own channels; WhatClinic presence re-read (17 verified reviews). |
| 2026-10-01 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Website field cleared: cebudentalimplants.com, the address its Google listing links, is a directory of Philippine dental clinics, not the clinic's own site; no website of its own was found on its Facebook page or Google listing. |
| 2026-10-01 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Read the clinic's Facebook page in full for the past year and the profile it names as its website on 2026-10-01: X-ray, children's dentistry, implant surgery and a free initial consultation are documented; CBCT is not. |

| 2026-10-01 | St. Michael's Dental Care | Website, service list, contacts and address re-based on the clinic's own channels (its Facebook page and Google listing) instead of directory profiles; the website both channels give, empireofsmile.com, does not exist, so the clinic still counts as having no website. Values unchanged. |
| 2026-10-01 | St. Michael's Dental Care | TripAdvisor re-checked 2026-10-01: its own search returns no profile for the clinic. |
| 2026-09-30 | Dental Specialist Center of Davao | Read the clinic's Facebook page and Instagram in full for the past year on 2026-09-30: no prices are published; its posts name its dentists and their specialties. |
| 2026-09-30 | Dentoq Dental Collective | Re-read on 2026-09-30 on the clinic's own Facebook page (About and a year of posts) and Google listing: the absence of a website, the dentists' names and training, the service list, contacts and address now rest on them; e-mail added to the contacts. Corrected: the consultation and X-ray prices now unverified, as the clinic's own channels state no fee and its Instagram could not be read in full; summary and notes no longer repeat directory ratings. |
| 2026-09-30 | Dentoq Dental Collective | Read the clinic's Facebook page and Instagram in full for the past year on 2026-09-30: no prices are published on either, nor on its Google listing. |
| 2026-09-30 | Dr Dental Care Center | Re-read on 2026-09-30 on the clinic's own Facebook page (About and every post of the past year) and Google listing: the dentist's name, service list, contacts and address now rest on them; e-mail added to the contacts. Recorded: dentist specialization listed (pediatric dentist Dr. Dave Araral) and consultation price published (a ₱700 treatment-plan consultation; free consultations on Thursday and Friday mornings). Summary and notes no longer repeat directory data. |
| 2026-09-30 | Dr Dental Care Center | Read the clinic's Facebook page in full for the past year on 2026-09-30 (232 posts, every image): beyond its 700 PHP consultation fee it publishes only time-limited promotions, no standing cleaning, filling, crown, implant or X-ray price; its X-ray and CBCT units and its children's dentistry now rest on its own posts instead of directories. |
| 2026-09-30 | Fuentes Dental Studio | Re-read on 2026-09-30: found and read in full the clinic's own Facebook page (Fuentes Dental Center, Nelly Garden Building, Jaro) and its Google listing. Contacts updated with the Facebook page and the e-mail it gives; presence on Facebook recorded; contacts, address and the service list now rest on these channels. Recorded: no prices published (list, cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray), as neither channel gives any and the clinic has no website. Notes corrected: the (046) number belongs to a same-named clinic in Cavite. |
| 2026-09-30 | Garcia-Bais Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-30 on the clinic's Google listing, its only own channel (no website, and no Facebook or Instagram page run by the clinic was found): the dentist's name, contacts, address and the absence of a website now rest on it. Corrected: published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, consultation and X-ray prices to not published, as they appear only on a directory; dentist specializations and the service list now unconfirmed; notes no longer repeat directory prices. |
| 2026-09-30 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Read the clinic's Facebook page in full for the past 12 months (About section and 10 posts): no prices are published, so the price criteria are recorded as not published; the page documents treating patients from the UK and the U.S. |
| 2026-09-30 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Read the clinic's Facebook page in full for the past 12 months and the WhatClinic listing it links: no amounts are shown any more (the teeth-cleaning price is gone) and the listing states a free initial consultation. |
| 2026-09-30 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-30 on the clinic's own Facebook page (About and a year of posts) and Google listing: the dentists' names now rest on the Facebook page. Corrected: dentist specializations and the service list now unverified, as the clinic's own channels publish neither (they appear only on directory pages); summary and notes no longer repeat directory ratings and prices. |
| 2026-09-30 | St. Michael's Dental Care | Read the clinic's Facebook page and Instagram in full for the past year on 2026-09-30: only a time-limited Valentine's promotion carries a figure, so no standing price is published; its posts name its two dentists, record orthodontics training and show that it takes X-rays. |
| 2026-09-30 | St. Michael's Dental Care | Corrected 2026-09-30: red flag "No dentists identified anywhere" removed: it contradicted the recorded finding that the clinic names its dentists. |
| 2026-09-30 | Tooth & Go Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-30 on the clinic's own website (homepage, smile makeover page and fee schedule) and its Google listing: the dentists' names now rest on the website, which names its head dentist, Dr. Elkie Lumagui, and its founder, Dr. Jens Knab; the published-prices note now describes the clinic's own fee schedule; summary and notes updated. |
| 2026-09-29 | Alora Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-03). |
| 2026-09-29 | Bright Smiles Oral Care Center | Corrected 2026-09-29: active Facebook presence now unverified: no Facebook search is on record, so the absence of a page is not established; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-08-27). |
| 2026-09-29 | CPS Dental Surgery & Implant Centre | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints and no suspicious review patterns now unverified: 4 Google reviews are too few to show a pattern. |
| 2026-09-29 | Dental Specialist Center of Davao | Corrected 2026-09-29: dentist names listed, dentist specializations listed, service list published, published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-29 | Dental Specialist Center of Davao | Read the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-29. Recorded: named specialists with their fields documented (an oral surgeon and a prosthodontist on staff); the page's own language is English; a detailed case post explains a treatment process rather than just listing it; booking is by Messenger only, no WhatsApp/LINE; no TripAdvisor listing found. Still unverified: itemised prices, a published service list, CBCT, and opening hours. |
| 2026-09-29 | Dentoq Dental Collective | Corrected 2026-09-29: published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown and implant prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-08-29). |
| 2026-09-29 | Dentoq Dental Collective | Read the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-29 (about section and recent posts). Recorded: the clinic documents treating patients from other continents (dental tourism); no TripAdvisor listing found; contact is by phone or Messenger only, no WhatsApp or LINE.

| 2026-09-29 | Dr Dental Care Center | Read the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-29. Recorded: no TripAdvisor listing; the page's own materials are in English; booking runs through phone calls or a Messenger DM, with no WhatsApp, LINE or structured booking request. Still unverified: itemised prices, CBCT, pediatric and emergency care. |
| 2026-09-29 | Fuentes Dental Studio | Corrected 2026-09-29: real clinic photos, published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-29 | Fuentes Dental Studio | Corrected: the Facebook page previously recorded for this clinic (facebook.com/FuentesDentalCenter) belongs to a different, identically named dental business in Dasmarinas, Cavite - its posted address and phone number do not match this clinic's Iloilo City location or phone. The link was removed from the card; no Facebook page of the Iloilo clinic has been confirmed. |
| 2026-09-29 | Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center (GAOC) | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-24). |
| 2026-09-29 | GAOC Cebu – Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center | Corrected 2026-09-29: red flag "Complaints about upselling / pushed treatment" removed: it contradicted the recorded finding that no complaint repeats in the reviews. |
| 2026-09-29 | Garcia-Bais Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints and no suspicious review patterns now unverified: 1 Google review is too few to show a pattern. |
| 2026-09-29 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Corrected 2026-09-29: real clinic photos, address and map published, published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-29 | Halasan Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints now unverified: 3 Google reviews are too few to show a pattern. |
| 2026-09-29 | Romero-Rosas Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints and no suspicious review patterns now unverified: 2 Google reviews are too few to show a pattern. |
| 2026-09-29 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: published prices and the filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-08-29). |
| 2026-09-29 | St. Michael's Dental Care | Corrected 2026-09-29: dentist names listed, dentist specializations listed, published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-29 | St. Michael's Dental Care | Read the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-29. Recorded: a published WhatsApp contact number, and an online virtual-consultation booking profile (SeriousMD) linked from the page. Still unverified: itemised prices, CBCT, and detailed service explanations. |
| 2026-09-25 | Affinity Dental Clinics Cebu | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Cebu page, its implant FAQ, cleaning and crown articles, and its Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews). Recorded: implant prices published in pesos and USD by treatment tier, but no cleaning, filling, crown, consultation or X-ray price found; CBCT for implant planning; WhatsApp reachable on the clinic's own number; online booking with clinic/date/time selection; owner replies to critical reviews with specifics. Corrected: an implant specialist is named on the clinic's own FAQ page. Still unverified: Facebook activity level and other review platforms. |
| 2026-09-25 | Bright Smiles Oral Care Center | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all 21 pages linked from its navigation: services, team, contact and information pages) and its complete Google review set of 6. Recorded: no prices published for any treatment on the clinic's own channels; no emergency category in the service list; the appointment button leads only to a generic contact form; no structured data; all 6 reviews are positive, with no complaint pattern or sign of manipulation; no TripAdvisor presence. Still unverified: on-site X-ray/CBCT equipment (not described on any page), a WhatsApp contact (one reviewer arranged the visit via WhatsApp, but no number is published), and whether the clinic answers reviews. |
| 2026-09-25 | CPS Dental Surgery & Implant Centre | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the practice's single-page website and its Google listing. Recorded: no prices published for any procedure on this surgical/implant specialist's site; Saturday hours and Sunday by appointment; virtual consultations and online booking via SeriousMD; no WhatsApp link; LocalBusiness structured data; no TripAdvisor presence. Still unverified: genuine premises photos, on-site CBCT, whether children's dentistry beyond surgical cleft care or emergency appointments are offered, and whether the practice answers reviews (the Google listing carries only 4). |
| 2026-09-25 | Dental Specialist Center of Davao | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews) and its listed website. Recorded: Google rating 4.6 from 15 reviews; genuine premises photos on the Google listing (waiting area, exterior signage); owner replies to reviews; "Emergency dental service" listed as a category on the claimed Google Business Profile. Corrected: the clinic's website domain has expired and now redirects to a domain-parking service, so the website and all price criteria are updated to reflect no live site; the earlier recurring-complaints finding rested on a single review and is not supported on a fuller reading. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, international-patient services, WhatsApp/LINE and online booking, none documented outside the clinic's Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-25 | Dental Specialist Center of Davao | Corrected: entries that described the clinic's former website (English version, specialisations, service list and explanations, service pages, English spoken, evening hours) are now recorded as not published, because that website no longer works, and the web address is removed from the contact details. Services now rest on an archived copy of the former services page (2026-04-22); X-ray and CT entries are withdrawn because that page names no imaging equipment. The phone, address and map are now taken from the clinic's Google listing. |
| 2026-09-25 | Dental Specialist Center of Davao | Corrected: English-speaking staff are now recorded as unknown rather than absent. They were stated only on the clinic's former website; a website that no longer works is not evidence that the staff do not speak English. |
| 2026-09-25 | Dentoq Dental Collective | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews); confirmed the clinic has no own website (its Google listing links to its Facebook page). Recorded: genuine premises photos on the Google listing (storefront signage, treatment room); owner replies to multiple reviews. Corrected: prices are not published on any of the clinic's own channels, only on the WhatClinic directory, which the methodology excludes. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, on-site CBCT, emergency care, international-patient services, English-language communication and WhatsApp/LINE, none documented outside the clinic's Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-25 | Dr Dental Care Center | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews); confirmed the clinic has no website (the former domain now hosts unrelated Turkish-language content). Recorded: genuine premises photos on the Google listing (reception, treatment room); no owner replies possible on this unclaimed listing; at least four independent reviews describe overcharging or poor value, a recurring complaint. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, review-manipulation signals (many reviews come from single-review accounts), pediatric dentistry, emergency care (the Google category is not usable as evidence on an unclaimed listing), international-patient services, WhatsApp/LINE, English communication and online booking. |
| 2026-09-25 | Fuentes Dental Studio | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing; confirmed no website exists. Recorded: the listing's only uploaded photo is unrelated to the clinic (a parking area); no owner replies possible on this unclaimed listing; no prices on any of the clinic's own channels. Corrected: the Google listing carries only 3 reviews, too few to assess complaint or manipulation patterns; the earlier no-complaints and no-manipulation findings rested on a directory profile and are withdrawn. Still unverified: CBCT, emergency care, international-patient services, WhatsApp/LINE and clear service explanations, none documented outside the clinic's Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-25 | GAOC Cebu – Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's branch page, general-dentistry/prosthodontics/oral-surgery service pages, the implant-cost article, the booking page, and its Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews). Recorded: no prices published for cleaning, filling, crowns, implants, consultation or X-ray on any of the clinic's channels; a booking form with service, branch and day selection; open every day including Sunday; owner replies to multiple reviews; genuine treatment-room and reception photos on the Google listing; no TripAdvisor presence; no genuine WhatsApp link. Corrected: the earlier recurring-complaints finding rested on a single review and is not supported on a fuller reading. Still unverified: on-site CBCT, not described on any page read. |
| 2026-09-25 | Garcia-Bais Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-25: this clinic carried neither a website nor a Google listing on file; the listing was located by name and address, matched on its exact Saint Elizabeth Centre / Valeria Street address, and is listed under the practitioner's name, Dr. Erla Joy A. Bais-Garcia. Recorded: rating 5.0 from a single review dated 2020; no owner reply possible on this unclaimed listing; no uploaded photos, only an automated Street View image; no website. Still unverified: CBCT, pediatric dentistry, WhatsApp/LINE, online booking and Facebook presence, none documented without a website. |
| 2026-09-25 | Green Apple Dental Clinic Cebu | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all 20 pages listed in its sitemap, including service pages and the inquiry form), the Green Apple group website and the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews). Recorded: no filling, crown, implant or X-ray prices published; same-day emergency care described in patient accounts; twelve dedicated service pages; a free photo-based smile assessment with recommendations on the group website; no WhatsApp link; owner replies to critical reviews; no TripAdvisor profile found. Corrected: two low-rated reviews describe poor communication about treatment, a recurring theme. Still unverified: CBCT/imaging equipment and Facebook activity level. |
| 2026-09-25 | Green Apple Dental Davao (Urbidontics Dental Clinic) | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's full website (about, service and assessment pages) and its Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews). Recorded: genuine team photos at the clinic's storefront; X-rays as part of orthodontic diagnostics but no prices published for cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants or X-rays; tooth extractions (qualifying as surgery); no WhatsApp link; Dentist/DentalClinic structured data. Corrected: two independent reviews describe being charged more than expected, a recurring complaint not reflected in the earlier finding. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, CBCT specifically (the site mentions only "advanced imaging"), the consultation fee (the site offers a free photo-based smile assessment), international-patient services, and whether the clinic responds to reviews (only 6 of 17 reviews were readable). |
| 2026-09-25 | Grijalvo Dental Aesthetics & Implantology | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews); confirmed the clinic has no own website (the address on file leads to a third-party directory page, not the clinic's own domain). Recorded: rating 4.7 from 12 reviews, newest dated 2026-08-12; the listing's only uploaded photo is a business-card graphic rather than a photo of the premises; no prices published on any of the clinic's own channels; no structured data or dedicated service pages, since no website exists. Still unverified: whether the clinic responds to reviews (no owner reply among the five most recent reviews read, too few relative to the review count to conclude either way), on-site CBCT, pediatric dentistry, emergency care, international-patient services, WhatsApp/LINE and online booking, none documented outside the clinic's unreadable Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-25 | Halasan Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all 21 pages and 33 blog posts listed in its sitemap, including services, clinic tour and appointment pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: no prices published for cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants or X-rays, with pages directing patients to contact the clinic for pricing; an appointment form with a preferred-days field; a team photo taken at the clinic's reception; orthodontic brackets presented on a dedicated page; no emergency category; no WhatsApp link. Still unverified: on-site X-ray/CBCT, the consultation fee (a blog post mentions free consultations while a service page asks patients to enquire), children's dentistry, and whether the clinic responds to reviews (the Google listing carries only 3 reviews, too few to score). |
| 2026-09-25 | Romero-Rosas Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-25: this clinic carried no Google listing on file; it was located via a name-and-address map search ("Romero-Rosas Dental Clinic Jaro Iloilo"), matched exactly on name and address, and its full website (services, about, contact pages across its Iloilo, Bacolod and Sum-ag branches). Recorded: rating 5.0 from 2 reviews, both with owner replies; an owner-uploaded video filmed in the clinic's treatment room; no prices published for any of the 20 listed services; contact is by phone or Facebook chat only, no WhatsApp/LINE or online booking widget; no structured data on the Google-Sites-built site. Still unverified: on-site X-ray/CBCT, not described on any page read. |
| 2026-09-25 | Ruiz & Sabinay Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews); confirmed the clinic has no own website (the site on file is a third-party directory listing many unrelated clinics, not the clinic's own domain). Recorded: genuine premises photos on the Google listing (signage, storefront); owner replies to nearly every review including a critical one; no TripAdvisor presence. Corrected: prices are not published on any of the clinic's own channels, only on the WhatClinic directory, which the methodology excludes; the price-published flag is updated accordingly. Still unverified: on-site X-ray/CBCT, implantology, pediatric dentistry, WhatsApp/LINE and online booking, none of which are documented outside the clinic's unreadable Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-25 | St. Michael's Dental Care | Re-read on 2026-09-25: this clinic carried no Google listing on file; it was located by name and address and matched exactly on name, address and phone number. Recorded: rating 4.8 from 70 reviews, newest dated the day before this check; owner replies extensively, including to every critical review; genuine treatment-room and entrance photos. Corrected: several low-rated reviews describe high or undisclosed prices, a recurring complaint not reflected in the earlier finding; review recency is updated now that the Google listing is readable. The website named on the clinic's Google profile, empireofsmile.com, is not registered in DNS; price and structured-data criteria are recorded on that basis. Still unverified: on-site X-ray and CBCT, WhatsApp/LINE and online booking, none documented outside the clinic's Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-25 | Tooth & Go Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (fee schedule, homepage, services, implant, orthodontics and consultation-package pages) and its Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews). Recorded: cleaning, filling, crown, implant and consultation prices published; on-site panoramic/cephalometric X-ray and CBCT for implant planning; pediatric and emergency care; orthodontics; WhatsApp contact; Saturday hours; owner replies to reviews including critical ones; two low-rated reviews describe long waits at the appointment time; no sign of review manipulation; no TripAdvisor profile found. Still unverified: a standalone X-ray fee (the consultation package advertises a free panoramic X-ray) and other review platforms. |
| 2026-09-25 | Tooth & Go Dental Clinic | Aligned with the clinic's entry on maniladentalrating.com: recorded General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) (no) from sources read on 2026-09-25. |
| 2026-09-10 | Dr Dental Care Center | Re-checked https://drdentalcarecenterdavao.com on 2026-09-10: the domain serves a Turkish-language news template titled "Drdentalcarecenterdavao Haber" whose articles are scraped health-and-beauty news from Turkish outlets, with no dental clinic content; this confirms the squatting already noted in the card's research notes, so the field is cleared. |
| 2026-09-10 | GAOC Cebu – Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center | Name-verification write-back 2026-09-10: 1 dentist confirmed on the clinic's own roster page https://www.gaocdental.com/gaoc-branches/sm-seaside-city-cebu/; source added. |

| 2026-09-10 | Smile More Dental Clinic | Re-verification 2026-09-10 at the clinic's request. The card had been built without reading the clinic's website - the earlier note recorded that the homepage could not be fetched - and 26 of 47 criteria stood unverified as a result. The site was read in full (60 pages) and 21 criteria were settled from it: contacts, own clinic photographs, published fees for crowns, X-rays and braces, X-ray equipment, oral surgery, preventive treatment for children, emergency arrangements, WhatsApp and Viber, pre-treatment enquiries, opening hours, structured data and dedicated service pages. Google reviews were re-read (4.9 from 162; the clinic replies to reviews) and the five canonical visibility queries re-run, in which the clinic now appears for four of five. Four price items and cone-beam CT were verified as absent rather than unverified: only a Philippines-wide average is published for cleaning, no fee for fillings, implants or consultations, and CBCT scans are arranged with an outside centre. Clinic licence remains unverifiable because the Philippine registers are closed to requests from outside the country. |

| 2026-09-07 | Dental World Manila | opaque_prices flag reviewed under methodology v1.4.0 and kept: the note hints at opacity but cites nothing verifiable, so it is annotated for re-verification at the next check. |
| 2026-09-07 | Dental World Manila | Opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no citable evidence found on re-verification: dentalworld.com.ph/dental-packages-rates/, fetched 2026-09-07, publishes package rates in USD with stated peso savings and a disclosed exchange rate, so the 'no prices published' premise no longer holds; the only source for 'higher-than-expected charges' is the clinic's Facebook page, which is not readable or citable automated). |
| 2026-09-07 | Dental World Manila | PriceTransparency re-evaluated 2026-09-07 (Y16): clinic now publishes package pricing in PHP/USD with a disclosed exchange rate (previously false). pricesPublished, crownPriceListed and implantPriceListed now true (bundled package prices, not per-unit); cleaningPriceListed, fillingPriceListed, consultationPriceListed and xrayPriceListed stay false — those services are named but never priced. See dental-world-manila-prices-2026-09-07. |
| 2026-09-07 | Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center (GAOC) | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no evidence of bait/opacity; non-publication is scored by price criteria). |
| 2026-09-07 | Methodology v1.4.0 | Narrowed the "Opaque or bait pricing" red flag to what its published definition describes. Until now the flag was applied automatically to every clinic that does not publish a price list — a harsher statement than the evidence supports, since the catalogue defines the flag as complaints about final bills materially exceeding quoted prices, or advertised prices that are not honoured. Not publishing prices is already scored: it costs the clinic points in the price transparency category, and it is not, on its own, evidence of bait pricing. The automatic rule is removed, so the flag and its 2-point penalty come off about 1,300 clinic pages across the index; no clinic gains a flag, and no weight, severity or other scoring rule changed. The flag can still be recorded against a clinic by hand with cited sources, and about 210 clinics carry such an entry today; we are reviewing those entries in a follow-up pass, because some of them were also written for nothing more than an unpublished price list. |
| 2026-09-03 | Methodology v1.3.1 | Clarified that the publication criteria refer to the clinic’s own channels: a service list, the names of the dentists and a price list count when the clinic itself publishes them (its website, its social profiles or its own Google Business profile) — registers, directories and review sites do not, and a time-limited promotional offer is not a price list. Added a third state for a dentist’s licence, "checked, not found in the public register": a dentist we searched for in the national register and did not find is now recorded as checked-but-unverified with the date of the check, instead of being shown either as "not checked yet" or as the "not published" red flag. Neither change alters any weight or penalty; the red-flag rule still fires only on a verified negative. Also corrected the wording of the penalty note under the ranking table, which rendered as "20−" in right-to-left dictionaries. |

Sia), with BGC Taguig as primary location and Cebu as secondary — the Cebu Google Maps listing at the stored Queen's Rd/Redemptorist Drive address is now under the surgeon's personal name "Charles P.

Bais-Garcia") with address matching stored exactly and no closure banner, but the page did not resolve to a citable place link, so its rating/review count/coordinates could not be captured today. The Maps page displayed phone +63 33 300 0286, differing from stored +63 33 509 4383, but an independent directory (iloiloph.com, found via a working Google web search) corroborates the stored number — left phone unchanged pending clearer evidence. |

| 2026-08-25 | Methodology v1.3.0 | Corrected how the two licensing red flags are applied ("Clinic operating licence not published" and "Dentists / their licences not listed"). Previously they were applied whenever licensing data was absent from our records, which treated unchecked data as a negative finding — contrary to the methodology's own rule that unverified data is a fact about our coverage, not about the clinic. Both flags now apply only where we have verified that the information is not published. Manual licensing flags that rested on unverified data were removed from the affected clinics. No other scoring rules changed; most scores rise because the incorrect penalty is removed. |

Corrected floor to 2/F (stored said 3rd Floor) and phone to +63 915 965 6181 per Google Maps (stored landline +63-2-84780649 could not be re-confirmed directly — dentist-manila.com returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, blocked for automated requests, though the domain remains live and linked from the Maps profile).
