Changelog

Every data update, correction, and methodology change is logged here and in each clinic's own change history. The rating updates whenever the underlying public data changes.

DateSubjectChange
2026-10-16Methodology v1.4.2Clarified 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.
2026-10-07Methodology v1.4.1Added 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寬庭牙醫診所 (QDO Dental Clinic)Rechecked whether this practice answers its Google reviews. No single Google listing is on record for it (the link held is a name search), so the criterion was left unscored instead of credited.
2026-09-10喨粒晶牙醫診所 (Shining Dental Clinic)Name-verification 2026-09-10: the remaining dentist confirmed in the meta description of the clinic's own already-cached team-introduction page; a dual-script name-matching gap in the automated tool, not a data gap.
2026-09-10復安牙醫診所 (Fullarch Dental Clinic)Name-verification re-read 2026-09-10: both remaining dentists re-confirmed on the clinic's own already-cited /doctor roster page — the page's body text is JS-rendered and empty, but its static href links to each dentist's bio post carry the full name.
2026-09-10星睿牙醫診所Name-verification re-read 2026-09-10: all 4 remaining dentists re-confirmed on the clinic's own already-cited "Doctor introduction" roster page (source s2); the automated read had only cached the homepage.

2026-09-10生活家牙醫診所Name-verification 2026-09-10: the remaining dentist confirmed via an image alt attribute on an already-cached clinic page not previously cited for him.

2026-09-07Methodology v1.4.0Narrowed 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.

2026-09-03Methodology v1.3.1Clarified 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.
2026-08-25Methodology v1.3.0Corrected 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.
2026-08-23Methodology v1.2.0Added 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.
2026-07-08Methodology v1.1.0Added 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.
2026-07-03Methodology v1.0.0Initial public methodology.
