Date	Subject	Change
2026-10-24	RH Dental Care (Banani Branch)	Re-checked on 2026-10-24 following a correction request, limited to the points it raised. Website: all 160 pages in the site's sitemap were read, and none still shows the developer's "TODO(client)" instructions recorded on 2026-09-10; the summary no longer describes an unfinished build. Opening hours: the Banani page now publishes its two sessions, 9:00 am to 2:00 pm and 4:30 pm to 10:00 pm, by appointment, in line with the Google Business Profile; 'Convenient hours' stays yes. Prices: the placeholders are gone, but no price or fee is published on any page, so the price criteria stay no. The score is unchanged. Nothing else on the card was re-read.
2026-10-16	Methodology v1.4.2	Clarified when dentist names count: a name published by the clinic counts when it lets a patient find the dentist in a professional register; a first name alone is not enough, nor is a first name with a patronymic where surnames are in use. Applied the same day to the clinics whose own channels name their dentists by first name only, which lose the points for dentist names. No other score changes.
2026-10-07	Methodology v1.4.1	Added a limit on re-checks made at a clinic's request: the next request from the same clinic about its own page is taken up no sooner than one month after the last re-check made at its request, which is dated in the clinic's change history; requests sent earlier are not processed. Corrections reported by anyone else are handled as before. No score changes.

2026-09-11	Alif Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies, repeated complaints and review patterns were all settled for the first time. The practice answers its reviews, though four of the five replies were posted on a single day in August 2026 against reviews from 2019 and 2022, which is recorded on the card. Opening hours were recorded as published for the first time, from the clinic's own Business Profile, along with the divergence over Fridays. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the treatment room and consulting office.
2026-09-11	Care Plus Braces & Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies, repeated complaints and review patterns were all settled for the first time: the newest dated review is 14 May 2026, the practice does not answer reviews, and one review in 46 sits below three stars, which puts a repeated complaint out of arithmetic reach. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the reception and both waiting rooms.
2026-09-11	Chowdhury's Premium Dental	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The reviewer accounts behind the readable reviews were read, which was the outstanding check that could have cleared the review-pattern finding; it did not, and the finding stands with the accounts now described on the card. Owner replies were settled for the first time and the answer is that the practice does not reply. Repeated complaints were ruled out by arithmetic. Opening hours were recorded as published for the first time, from the clinic's own Business Profile, and the summary was corrected accordingly. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the waiting lounge, a treatment room and the entrance.
2026-09-11	Chowdhury's Premium Dental	A cross-card claim was corrected. The summary called this the largest published review volume in its city; it is the second largest, behind a clinic whose own card says so and is right. Both figures were re-read from the listings on 2026-09-11.
2026-09-11	Decent Specialized Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The published review count moved from 255 to 256 as the base grew, matching the histogram exactly, and the summary was brought into line. Review recency, owner replies and review patterns were settled for the first time; repeated complaints stay unset with the proportion disclosed, because none of the fourteen critical reviews is readable. The published opening week was read from the Business Profile and settles the contradiction between the website's two opening lines: neither is right, the listing gives 15:00. The clinic's doctors page was re-read: the individual profile links that had gone dead are working again, and the roster now names four dentists rather than two — Dr. Nigar Sultana (Shampa) and Dr. Kazi Maria Haque (Seeme) have been added with the qualifications the clinic publishes for them. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the reception, a treatment room and the certificate wall.
2026-09-11	Decent Specialized Dental Care	A Facebook page was found for the clinic, which neither its website nor its Google listing links. It carries the clinic's name exactly as the listing spells it and has about 1,500 followers, so the social-presence field could be recorded for the first time.
2026-09-11	Dental Avenue	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The published review count moved from 247 to 249 as the base grew, matching the histogram exactly. Review recency, owner replies, review patterns and opening hours were all settled for the first time. The practice does reply to reviews, but all five readable replies are the same pasted text posted on one day against a months-old backlog, which is recorded on the card. Opening hours came from the clinic's own Business Profile and the summary was corrected accordingly. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the shopfront under the clinic's own sign, a treatment room and the waiting lounge.
2026-09-11	Dental Avenue	The replies row was re-read and kept as a yes, with the qualification made sharper: the single pasted message also went onto a four-star review, thanking that patient for a recommendation. The row records whether the practice replies at all, which it does; the quality of those replies is not something this index measures.
2026-09-11	Dr Tasmia's Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies and repeated complaints were all settled for the first time: the newest dated review is 16 June 2026, the practice does not answer reviews including a two-star one, and one review in 20 sits below three stars, which puts a repeated complaint out of arithmetic reach. The photographs were downloaded and examined; the practice's own photograph shows its two-chair treatment room, while a visitor's photograph on the same listing shows an advocate's chambers rather than the clinic, which is recorded on the card.
2026-09-11	Dr Tasmia's Dental Care	The dentist registration numbers this clinic publishes were moved into the licence column, each with a note saying plainly that the number is the clinic's own and that the national register could not be reached to check it. The register answered an automated request with a security challenge on 2026-09-11 and in any case searches by number only, behind an image captcha. Nothing about these numbers is verified; what changed is that the card now shows the number the clinic publishes instead of saying nothing.
2026-09-11	Dr Tasmia's Dental Care	The review-pattern row was settled on a re-read of the listing: the star histogram, the exact date of every review Google renders, and each reviewer's account history. The June cluster is stated on the card rather than left out.
2026-09-11	Dr. Masum's Dental Clinic	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Owner replies were confirmed with dates, review recency was dated exactly to 22 June 2026, and repeated complaints were left open with the arithmetic stated. The published opening week was read from the Business Profile and diverges from the website's: the listing has the practice open seven days and from 09:00, the website Saturday to Thursday from 14:00. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the clinic's own branded reception and consulting corridor.
2026-09-11	Dr. Rizwan's Iconic Dental Laser & Implant Center	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency was dated exactly to 10 July 2026 and owner replies were confirmed with dates. The outstanding question — what the twelve one-star and two two-star reviews say — was attempted and remains unanswered, because the listing renders only five review texts and all five are five-star; the criterion stays unset with the proportion disclosed. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the clinic's own branded treatment room and waiting areas.
2026-09-11	Dr. Teeth Family Dental Clinic (Chandgaon)	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The published review count moved from 62 to 63 as the base grew, matching the histogram exactly. Owner replies were confirmed, including a reply to the listing's one-star review that disputes the patient's account in the open. The practice's second listing, at Prabortak Circle, was read for the first time and confirms the two-branch statement on this card: the same practice name, telephone number and website, at the Panchlaish address, with a separate base of 102 reviews at 4.9. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the treatment room, waiting room, consulting desk and street frontage.
2026-09-11	Fouzia Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies and repeated complaints were all settled for the first time. The photographs were downloaded and examined: one shows the surgeon treating a patient in his own room, and the others are the chamber signboard and his business card, both legible. Those two independently confirm the BM&DC registration number the clinic publishes on its website, 9590, along with his degree, hospital post and address, and they publish consulting hours and an email address. The opening week is published in three of the clinic's own channels which differ over Friday and over the morning start, and all three are now recorded on the card.
2026-09-11	Fouzia Dental Care	The dentist registration numbers this clinic publishes were moved into the licence column, each with a note saying plainly that the number is the clinic's own and that the national register could not be reached to check it. The register answered an automated request with a security challenge on 2026-09-11 and in any case searches by number only, behind an image captcha. Nothing about these numbers is verified; what changed is that the card now shows the number the clinic publishes instead of saying nothing.
2026-09-11	Fouzia Dental Care	A phrase in the summary that referred to our own working batch rather than to this index was reworded. The statement itself is unchanged.
2026-09-11	Fouzia Dental Care	The review-pattern row was settled on a re-read of the listing: every review shown with its exact date and its author's history, against the star histogram.
2026-09-11	Fouzia Dental Care	Two facts the surgeon publishes on his own signboard and business card, but not on his website, were added: a second appointment number with an e-mail address, and a second consulting chamber at Phultala bazar. The card continues to describe the BIDC Road chamber, which is the address all three of his other channels carry.
2026-09-11	Holy Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The repeated-complaint finding recorded earlier was confirmed and given exact dates: four one-star reviews by four different authors, dated between October 2025 and June 2026, describe the same dismissive or careless conduct. Owner replies were settled for the first time and the answer is that the practice does not reply — not to any of the four one-star reviews that are readable. Opening hours were recorded as published for the first time, from the clinic's own Business Profile. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show well-equipped, clearly branded rooms.
2026-09-11	Holy Dental Care	The dentist registration numbers this clinic publishes were moved into the licence column, each with a note saying plainly that the number is the clinic's own and that the national register could not be reached to check it. The register answered an automated request with a security challenge on 2026-09-11 and in any case searches by number only, behind an image captcha. Nothing about these numbers is verified; what changed is that the card now shows the number the clinic publishes instead of saying nothing.
2026-09-11	Holy Dental Care	A recurring-complaints flag was applied by hand. Four one-star reviews by four different authors, spread across eight months, describe the same dismissive or inattentive handling, and the practice has answered none of them.
2026-09-11	Laser Dental (Banani)	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Owner replies confirmed and recorded; review recency dated to 5 July 2026; the photographs were downloaded and examined, and show the team and the building under the clinic's own signage. The practice's Uttara listing was read for the first time and carries 288 reviews at 4.7, correcting the earlier statement that it showed the same 4.8 as Banani. The clean finding on review patterns was withdrawn to an open one: a small cluster of reviews is shared between the two branch listings on the same day by accounts holding exactly two reviews each, which is recorded in full on the card.
2026-09-11	Laser Dental (Banani)	The review-pattern row was decided by reading this practice's second listing as well as this one. The same accounts posted to both on the same day, one text word for word, which is why each of those accounts carries exactly two reviews - and several of the reviews on the other listing describe treatment at this branch.
2026-09-11	Laser Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The review-recency question left open earlier was settled and the answer was negative: the newest dated review is 8 June 2026, 95 days old, five days outside the three-month band, so the conservative band stands rather than being upgraded. Owner replies were confirmed with dates and content. Opening hours were recorded as published for the first time, from the clinic's own Business Profile, and the summary was corrected accordingly. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show treatments in progress in the clinic's own rooms.
2026-09-11	Laser Dental Care	The dentist registration numbers this clinic publishes were moved into the licence column, each with a note saying plainly that the number is the clinic's own and that the national register could not be reached to check it. The register answered an automated request with a security challenge on 2026-09-11 and in any case searches by number only, behind an image captcha. Nothing about these numbers is verified; what changed is that the card now shows the number the clinic publishes instead of saying nothing.
2026-09-11	Mehjabin Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Repeated complaints and review patterns were settled for the first time and review recency was dated exactly to 1 May 2026. Opening hours were recorded as published for the first time and the summary corrected: the surgeon publishes them both in his own Business Profile and on the chamber's printed signboard, which is photographed on the listing. The photographs were downloaded and examined; none shows the inside of the chamber, and the clinic's own website images could not be retrieved because every request returned a server error, so the photographs criterion is left unset rather than recorded as an absence.
2026-09-11	Mehjabin Dental Care	A Facebook page was found for the chamber, which neither its website nor its Google listing links. It is the practice's own: the same appointment number that is printed on the chamber signboard, the same address by the Dargah Gate, the surgeon's qualifications and the treatments offered. It publishes consulting hours of 18:00-21:00, matching the Business Profile exactly, and names one hospital post the card did not carry, consultant dental surgeon at Pioneer Hospital, which has been added. The page does not settle the photographs question: everything on it is designed artwork rather than photography of the rooms.
2026-09-11	Mehjabin Dental Care	A separate appointment number printed on the chamber signboard, and absent from the website, was added to the contacts row.
2026-09-11	Promident Dental Clinic, Banani	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The review-recency question left open earlier was settled and the answer was negative: the newest dated review is 6 June 2026, 97 days old, so the conservative band stands rather than being upgraded. Owner replies confirmed with dates. The listing's photographs were downloaded and examined and show the clinic's own reception and treatment rooms.
2026-09-11	Pulp Dental Hospital	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies, review patterns and the opening week were all settled for the first time. The clinic's round-the-clock claim was verified rather than taken on trust: its own Business Profile publishes "Open 24 hours" for every day of the week, and the shopfront photographed on the listing carries the same claim in neon. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the shopfront, the building, a treatment room and the consulting desk.
2026-09-11	Pulp Dental Hospital	A phrase in the summary that referred to our own working batch rather than to this index was reworded. The statement itself is unchanged.
2026-09-11	Pulp Dental Hospital	A re-read of the listing on 2026-09-11 showed it is unclaimed - it still carries Google's invitation to claim the business. Two rows were corrected to say so: the opening week is no longer described as the practice's own Business Profile, since an unclaimed listing is Google's record and not the clinic's publication, and the round-the-clock claim now rests on the clinic's two websites and its own shopfront sign with the listing as corroboration. The absence of replies to reviews is explained by the same fact.
2026-09-11	Radiant Smile Dental Clinic	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Repeated complaints and review patterns were settled for the first time, and review recency was dated exactly to 29 August 2026. Opening hours were recorded as published for the first time: the practice does not publish them on its website but does publish a full week in its own Google Business Profile. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the clinic's own branded reception and two treatment rooms.
2026-09-11	Radiant Smile Dental Clinic	The review count in the summary was corrected from ten to six, which is what the listing publishes and what its star histogram sums to.
2026-09-11	RH Dental Care (Banani Branch)	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. The published review count was corrected from 26 to 19 after four separate reads of the listing on the same day all returned 19, and the card's summary was brought into line. Review recency, owner replies and repeated complaints were settled for the first time. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the team, the building and a treatment in progress. The listing's five-star-only distribution and the tight posting window of its newest reviews are set out in full on the card without a finding being made against the clinic.
2026-09-11	RH Dental Care (Banani Branch)	The dentist registration numbers this clinic publishes were moved into the licence column, each with a note saying plainly that the number is the clinic's own and that the national register could not be reached to check it. The register answered an automated request with a security challenge on 2026-09-11 and in any case searches by number only, behind an image captcha. Nothing about these numbers is verified; what changed is that the card now shows the number the clinic publishes instead of saying nothing.
2026-09-11	RH Dental Care (Banani Branch)	The review-pattern row was decided on a re-read of the listing. One published review still shows the unfilled blank of a template, which is recorded together with everything that points the other way: a branch two months old, a base of nineteen, and four reviews that read as genuine.
2026-09-11	Smile Line Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies, repeated complaints and review patterns were all settled for the first time. The histogram sums to the listing's own count of 71, which settles the difference from the 66 the clinic's website widget shows. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the shopfront under the clinic's own sign, a treatment room and the consulting desk.
2026-09-11	Smile Line Dental Care	A second telephone number the clinic prints on its own shopfront but publishes nowhere on its website was added to the contacts row.
2026-09-11	The Classic Dental Care	Reputational check against the listing's own place record, which returned the star histogram, five reviews with exact dates and owner replies, the published opening week and the listing's photographs. Review recency, owner replies, repeated complaints and review patterns were all settled for the first time: the newest dated review is 6 June 2026, seven days outside the three-month band, the practice answers every readable review, and one review in 79 sits below three stars, which puts a repeated complaint out of arithmetic reach. The photographs were downloaded and examined and show the clinic's own branded reception and treatment room.
2026-09-11	The Classic Dental Care	The dentist registration numbers this clinic publishes were moved into the licence column, each with a note saying plainly that the number is the clinic's own and that the national register could not be reached to check it. The register answered an automated request with a security challenge on 2026-09-11 and in any case searches by number only, behind an image captcha. Nothing about these numbers is verified; what changed is that the card now shows the number the clinic publishes instead of saying nothing.
2026-09-10	Alif Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own site was read in full and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the opening week were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Alif Dental Care	Adversarial verification. Every claim on the card was re-read against its sources and none was refuted; the live place page rendered no reviews for this listing, so the review-side fields stay unset and on the record on file. The note recording the state of the register was taken out of the published doctors table, where it had made the licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Care Plus Braces & Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, doctors and services pages were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly. The clinic's own embedded review widget (44) was recorded in a note against the live listing's 46 rather than used as data. Review-side fields and clinic photographs left unset and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Care Plus Braces & Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The name-and-city search was re-run after the first-pass instance returned nothing, which settled the indexing-quality field. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Chowdhury's Premium Dental	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front and about pages were read, the Google Maps place record was read directly twice, and the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the opening week were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset because DGHS does not license dental chambers and BM&DC is number-only.
2026-09-10	Chowdhury's Premium Dental	Adversarial verification. The flat 5.0 across 274 reviews was resolved by reading the live star histogram: 273 five-star and one one-star, with no four-, three- or two-star rating at all. That is recorded as a suspicious review pattern with a red flag, against the practice, and the reviewer account histories are queued for a manual browser check, which can overturn it. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Decent Specialized Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own English front page and a dentist profile page were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly twice; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. The street address, the social presence, the booking route and the opening week were left unset with reasons, the clinic's own two opening statements contradicting each other; review-side fields queued for a manual browser check. Both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Decent Specialized Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The street address was refuted as unestablished: the clinic publishes "PARUPALLI, 20 Wahab Avenue, East Side of Iqbalnagar Girl's School, Khulna" in its header, its "Visit Our Clinic" block, its footer and its own structured data, and the card address was corrected from the bare city name. The opening week was recorded too — the clinic states it four times and all four agree on a Saturday-to-Thursday evening week closing at 21:00, though the opening time is stated three different ways, which is recorded as a red flag rather than hidden. The dentist profile page cited in the first pass now 404s and was replaced with the clinic's live doctors, services and contact pages, and the name search was re-run. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Dental Avenue	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, about, services and contact pages were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly twice; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. The review count is unset because both live reads returned the rating alone. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the opening week left unset with reasons; both licence layers unset because DGHS does not license dental chambers and BM&DC is number-only.
2026-09-10	Dental Avenue	Adversarial verification. The review count, unset after two first-pass reads, was recovered from a third live read with a different query form (247 — the largest base in Khulna). The place page renders no reviews, so the review-side fields stay unset and on the record on file. The note recording the state of the register was taken out of the published doctors table, where it had made the licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Dr Tasmia's Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front and overseas-patients pages were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. The principal's published BM&DC number (3113) was recorded and queued for a manual browser check, the register being number-only. Review-side fields and clinic photographs left unset with reasons.
2026-09-10	Dr Tasmia's Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The published-prices claim was refuted. The only figures on the clinic's own site sit in a "Cost Comparison" table benchmarking Sylhet against UK, US and Gulf columns, and the clinic labels that table itself as "representative comparisons based on typical market rates" — a market range for the city, not the practice's own price. Prices published and the implant price were reset to false and the summary corrected. The note recording the state of the register was taken out of the published doctors table, where it had made the licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Dr. Masum's Dental Clinic	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, about and principal pages were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Review-side fields and clinic photographs left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Dr. Masum's Dental Clinic	Adversarial verification. The live place page gave the star histogram (3/1/1/7/294), the review dates and three dated owner-reply records. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Dr. Rizwan's Iconic Dental Laser & Implant Center	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, dentists, contact and a service page were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly three times with different query forms. The review count is unset because all three live reads returned the rating alone. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the opening times left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Dr. Rizwan's Iconic Dental Laser & Implant Center	Adversarial verification. Three things changed. The roster was completed: the clinic names seventeen dentists on its own page and the card had recorded seven, so ten were added and the qualifications of the two leads corrected against the page (the principal holds BDS, BCS, MS in endodontics and FICD, not BDS alone). The review count, unset after three tile reads, was recovered from the live place page (104, with a star histogram of 12/2/3/4/83 that sums to it). And the opening hours were recorded: the site publishes "Open Hour (Sat-Thurs) 03:00 PM to 9:00 PM" in its header and footer, contrary to the first-pass reading. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Dr. Teeth Family Dental Clinic (Chandgaon)	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, doctors and price-guide pages were read; the clinic's own published Google Maps short link was resolved to its listing name and feature id, but three automated place probes returned no place record, so every Google-sourced field is unset and queued for a manual browser check with the feature id. The five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Dr. Teeth Family Dental Clinic (Chandgaon)	Adversarial verification. The clinic publishes only a maps.app.goo.gl short link, which the first pass could not resolve, so its whole Google block was unset. Following the link to its feature id and reading the place page directly recovered the coordinates, the rating (4.8), the review count (62), the star histogram (1/2/0/4/55), the review dates and four owner-reply records — one of them the clinic's own answer to its critical review. The price guide was verified block by block: four of its six blocks are genuine taka and the other two are template residue in US dollars, which is now stated on the card. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Fouzia Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own bilingual site was read in full, including the price data behind its cost calculator, and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. The surgeon's published BM&DC number (9590) was recorded and queued for a manual browser check as the strongest register lead in the set. Review-side fields and clinic photographs left unset with reasons; the clinic licence layer is unset because DGHS does not license dental chambers.
2026-09-10	Fouzia Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The dedicated-service-pages claim was refuted: the treatment-cost article cited in the first pass now returns 404, the clinic's blog index lists no articles at all, and the site itself is a single page with in-page anchors and no per-treatment URLs. The dead source was dropped. The note recording the state of the register was taken out of the published doctors table, where it had made the licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Holy Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own site was read and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Five published BM&DC numbers were recorded against the named dentists and queued for a manual browser check. Review-side fields were left unset with reasons and specifically flagged for the manual browser check, the listing's 3.4 average being the lowest in this set; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Holy Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The review texts Google renders on the live place page were read, and four separate one-star reviews describe the same thing — dismissive or careless conduct by clinic staff — against a star histogram of 15/1/2/3/24. Recurring complaints is therefore recorded as present. The same histogram rules out manipulation: a base a third of which is one-star is contested, not managed. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Laser Dental (Banani)	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, team, gallery, contact and implant pages were read; the Google Maps place records for both the Banani and the Uttara listing were read directly; the five canonical city queries were taken from the AI-visibility pass. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the published opening week were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers are unset because DGHS does not license dental chambers and BM&DC is number-only.
2026-09-10	Laser Dental (Banani)	Adversarial verification. The site emits two JSON-LD blocks and only the second is the stale template: the first is genuine practice markup and publishes the opening week, so the opening hours were recorded from it rather than left unset. The live place page gave the star histogram (3/0/2/4/118) and the review dates; owner replies could not be confirmed from it and stay on the record on file. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table. As published notes they made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made, since nothing was ever searched for these dentists.
2026-09-10	Laser Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own bilingual front page was read in full and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. One published BM&DC number (7741) was recorded and queued for a manual browser check. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the opening week left unset with reasons; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Laser Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The live place page gave the star histogram (2/1/3/4/85), the review dates and four individually written owner-reply records. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Mehjabin Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front page was read and the Google Maps place record was read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. The clinic's own address publication, its Facebook presence, review-side fields, photographs and the opening week were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Mehjabin Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The address was refuted as unestablished: the clinic publishes it in the "Contact Us" block of its own front page and it matches the Google listing exactly — the first pass had looked for it on the services page, which answers HTTP 503. The live place page gave the review dates and a Bengali owner-reply record. The only times the site publishes are a seasonal Ramadan window, which is not read as the regular week. The note recording the state of the register was taken out of the published doctors table, where it had made the licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Promident Dental Clinic, Banani	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, doctors, services, contact and blog pages were read, and the Google Maps place record was read directly. Review-side fields and clinic photographs were left unset and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers are unset because DGHS does not license dental chambers and BM&DC is number-only.
2026-09-10	Promident Dental Clinic, Banani	Adversarial verification. The live place page gave the star histogram (5/1/0/9/426), the review dates and two dated owner-reply records, which settled review recency, owner replies and the manipulation question. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Pulp Dental Hospital	Initial data collection: the clinic's current and previous sites were read, the Google Maps place record was read directly twice, and the national DGHS register was read in full and matched to this practice on name, district, upazila and street, giving the only clinic licence found in this Bangladeshi set (HSM64223). The five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Review-side fields, photographs, imaging and the sedation question left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; the dentist licence layer is unset because BM&DC searches by number only and publishes none of these dentists' numbers.
2026-09-10	Pulp Dental Hospital	Adversarial verification. The DGHS licence was kept and its presentation corrected: the value now opens with the bare registration code so a reader can check it against the register, and the narrative explaining how the clinic was identified in the register moved out of the published cell. The Panthapath, Dhaka address flagged in the first pass was explained by the site itself — it stands in the footer under the heading "Dhaka Branch", so the practice has a second address rather than an unexplained one. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Radiant Smile Dental Clinic	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, contact, service and gallery pages were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly. Review-side fields, clinic photographs and the opening week were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers are unset because DGHS does not license dental chambers and BM&DC is number-only.
2026-09-10	Radiant Smile Dental Clinic	Adversarial verification. The review count was corrected from 10 to 6 against the live place page, whose own star histogram sums to six. The same read gave the review dates and a dated owner-reply record. The note recording the state of the register was taken out of the published doctors table, where it had made the licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	RH Dental Care (Banani Branch)	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, team, treatments, contact and both branch pages were read; the Google Maps place records for the Banani and the Banasree listing were read directly; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Eleven published BM&DC numbers were recorded against the named clinicians and queued for a manual browser check, since the register searches by number only. Review-side fields and clinic photographs left unset with reasons.
2026-09-10	RH Dental Care (Banani Branch)	Adversarial verification. The dentist roster was corrected: the clinic's team page groups its fifteen clinicians by address, and this Banani card had carried three who sit only at the Banasree branch (Prof. Dr. Md. Shahidul Islam Shaheen, Dr. Mansura Panna, Dr. Nabil Rahaman) while omitting two who sit at Banani (Dr. Mim, Dr. Nusrat). The card now records the six clinicians in the page's own "At Banani" block, four of whom the clinic publishes a BM&DC number for. Re-reading the site also showed the price gap is not a blank placeholder but the developer's own "TODO(client)" instruction still rendered in the live body text, in six places. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	Smile Line Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, doctors, services and international-patients pages were read and the Google Maps place record was read directly twice. The review count is unset because two live reads returned the rating without a count; the clinic's own widget figure (66) is recorded in a note rather than entered as data. Review-side fields and clinic photographs queued for a manual browser check; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	Smile Line Dental Care	Adversarial verification. The review count, unset in the first pass, was recovered from a second live place read with a different query form (71). The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
2026-09-10	The Classic Dental Care	Initial data collection: the clinic's own site was read and the Google Maps place record was read directly twice; the five canonical city queries came from the AI-visibility pass. Two published BM&DC numbers (10634, 13082) were recorded and queued for a manual browser check. Review-side fields and clinic photographs left unset with reasons; both licence layers unset for register reasons.
2026-09-10	The Classic Dental Care	Adversarial verification. Every claim on the card was re-read against its sources and none was refuted; the live place page rendered no reviews for this listing, so the review-side fields stay unset and on the record on file. The notes recording the state of the register were taken out of the published doctors table, where they had made each licence cell read "not published" instead of "not verified" — a denial the data never made.
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.
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.
2026-08-23	Methodology v1.2.0	Added an informational "Sedation & general anaesthesia" availability field to every clinic and a new "Sleep Dentistry (Sedation / GA)" list, for patients who cannot tolerate — or would rather not be awake for — treatment. This field is informational and does not change any transparency score.
2026-07-08	Methodology v1.1.0	Added licensing transparency: clinics are now penalised when they do not publish their operating licence, or do not list their dentists together with their professional licence numbers. Each clinic page now shows a Licensing & Credentials section.
2026-07-03	Methodology v1.0.0	Initial public methodology.
