| 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. |

| 2026-10-02 | VDC Dental Clinic Turkey | Address and map are now shown from the clinic's own Google listing (Piri Reis Cad. No 18A, Muratpaşa, read 2026-10-02), so the "no address" flag is removed; the contact e-mail is the one printed on its website. |
| 2026-10-02 | VDC Dental Clinic Turkey | Reputation check 2026-10-02 on the clinic's Google listing (10 reviews read): suspicious review patterns no. |
| 2026-10-01 | AST Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | Read every page and pop-up form of the clinic's website on 2026-10-01: its appointment and question forms are plain contact forms without a treatment or time choice or an estimate, so no pre-visit consultation is recorded. |
| 2026-10-01 | Markasya Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Kliniği | Read the clinic's lowest-rated Google reviews on 2026-10-01: they are few (8 of 196) and do not repeat one complaint beyond a single case told twice, so no recurring complaints are recorded. |
| 2026-10-01 | Myra Dental Centre | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: WhatClinic (4 reviews) and Trustpilot (3 reviews); the clinic's own site cited before is not a review platform. |
| 2026-10-01 | Panoramik Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı | Read the Panoramik chain's WhatClinic profile on 2026-10-01: it covers the Konyaaltı branch, with patient reviews, so presence on other review platforms is recorded. |
| 2026-10-01 | VDC Dental Clinic Turkey | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: Trustpilot (15 reviews) read directly; the clinic's own page showing the badge was cited before. |
| 2026-09-29 | Adalya Dental Clinic | Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-29 with the five canonical Antalya queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 0 of the five. |
| 2026-09-29 | Antlara Dental Clinic | Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-29 with the five canonical Antalya queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 2 of the five. |
| 2026-09-29 | BGZ Dental Turkey | Added to the directory on 2026-09-29. Researched from the clinic's website (252 pages in six languages, its structured data, llms.txt and English landing page), its two Google listings, Trustpilot and the Ministry of Health health-tourism authorization list, where the facility appears under its registered name Özel Büyükgebiz Ağız Ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği. |
| 2026-09-29 | DentGroup Antalya Lara Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: review count 1060 (was 756) from the Google listing on 2026-09-25; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-25); owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-25). |
| 2026-09-29 | Lara Smile Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-29: the clinic's website (all sitemap pages in English, German and Russian, including the team, dentist bio, treatment, price list, contact and about pages), its Google listing, its Trustpilot and WhatClinic profiles and the Ministry of Health health-tourism list. Recorded: the dentists on the team page with their fields and dental faculties (two of them work at the separately licensed Lara Smile Premium and are not listed on this card); own photos of the building and treatment rooms; children's dentistry (German page) and emergency visits with a 24/7 WhatsApp line; Saturday opening per the Google listing; no business structured data; Google 4.9 from 1,198 reviews, newest 2026-09-26, with owner replies including to critical reviews; a repeated complaint about aftercare in three 1-star reviews; the clinic is on the Ministry list as Özel Lara Smile Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği and shows its authorization certificate ST-3150. Corrected: the street address and map are published (contact page and footer); dentists' specialisations are stated; the Google review count is updated to 1,198; the licence entry now carries the certificate number and register listing; the no-street-address flag is removed; two dentists no longer on the team page are removed. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, orthodontic treatment and review-pattern signals. Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-29 with the five canonical Antalya queries: absent from all five. |
| 2026-09-29 | Markasya Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Kliniği | Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-29 with the five canonical Antalya queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 0 of the five. |

| 2026-09-24 | Adalya Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s English site (homepage, dental-centre overview, implant and All-on-4 pages, contact and about pages, and the page/post/FAQ sitemaps) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine reception-area photo on the Google listing; panoramic X-rays used in implant planning; no emergency/same-day acute-care page (the site’s “same day” wording refers to starting planned treatment on arrival); services explained step by step; structured business data present. Corrected: contact details — the phone number on the Google listing (+90 541 323 79 88) differs from the one on the clinic’s website (+90 501 246 80 80), and the site gives two street numbers (424 and 430). Google listing: 4.7 from 125 reviews, newest 2026-09-19, owner replies to individual reviews including disputed ones; no recurring complaint theme in the lowest-rated reviews and no clear sign of manipulation. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: CBCT/3D imaging (not mentioned on the pages read). |
| 2026-09-24 | Adalya Dental Clinic | Aligned with the clinic's entry on turkeydentalrating.com: recorded General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) (yes) from sources read on 2026-08-23. |
| 2026-09-24 | Altindent Özel Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s Turkish site (dedicated emergency and oral-radiology pages, contact page, full sitemap of over 150 URLs) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine treatment-room photo on the Google listing; a dedicated emergency-dental page and a site-wide “24/7 Dental Emergency” service listing; a WhatsApp click-to-chat link; pediatric dentistry among the listed treatments; detailed FAQ-style explanations per condition; Saturday hours published; structured business data present. Google listing: 4.7 from 59 reviews, newest 2026-07-24, owner replies to individual reviews including one patient who updated a critical review after follow-up; no recurring complaint theme in the lowest-rated reviews. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: CBCT/3D imaging (the radiology page is general and does not name CBCT); work with foreign patients and English spoken by staff (the site is Turkish-only and makes no statement of its own); whether the review pattern shows signs of manipulation; presence on WhatClinic or similar review platforms. |
| 2026-09-24 | Antlara Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s English site (implant, contact, FAQ and why-choose-us pages, and the full sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: X-rays and CBCT mentioned for implant assessment, services explained step by step, Saturday hours published, structured business data present, genuine clinic photos on the Google listing. Google listing: 4.9 from 1,112 reviews, newest 2026-09-22, owner replies to individual reviews including negative ones; recurring complaints about failed crowns, a bridge and an onlay in several of the lowest-rated reviews; no clear sign of review manipulation. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: emergency appointments (the contact page is titled for emergency contact, but no emergency service is described), and presence on other review platforms beyond those already recorded. |
| 2026-09-24 | AST Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s Turkish site (implant, root canal, jaw-cyst surgery, doctors and contact pages, and the full page sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine reception photo on the Google listing; a panoramic X-ray taken at the first stage of implant treatment, while tomography is requested from an outside hospital rather than done with CBCT on site; a named orthodontics specialist on staff; no emergency/same-day acute-care page; the implant procedure explained in detail; only generic WebSite structured data, no business-entity schema; separate substantive pages per treatment. Google listing: 5.0 from 103 reviews, newest 2026-08-04, a single low review with no recurring theme. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: whether the site’s “book appointment” and “ask the doctor” pop-ups amount to a booking or assessment flow; presence on WhatClinic or similar review platforms; owner replies to reviews (none seen in the reviews read); whether the clinic documents serving foreign patients or English-speaking staff (no such statement on the Turkish pages). |
| 2026-09-24 | Lara Smile Dental Clinic | Aligned with the clinic's entry on turkeydentalrating.com: recorded Review recency (within_3_months) from sources read on 2026-08-26. |
| 2026-09-24 | Markasya Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Kliniği | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s site (implant treatment page, contact page and full sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine treatment-room photo on the Google listing; panoramic X-ray and CBCT described as part of the clinic’s own implant planning; the implant procedure explained in detail across stages; structured business data present. Google listing: 4.8 from 196 reviews, newest 2026-08-27, the dentist replies personally to reviews including negative ones; no clear sign of manipulation. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: recurring complaints (the two most detailed low-rated reviews describe a single zirconia-crown case), and presence on WhatClinic or similar review platforms. |
| 2026-09-24 | Markasya Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Kliniği | Aligned with the clinic's entry on turkeydentalrating.com: recorded General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) (yes) from sources read on 2026-08-23. |
| 2026-09-24 | Mustafa Tuncer Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s Turkish site (homepage, implant treatment page, clinic-photo gallery, full sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine interior photos in the clinic’s own gallery; a Facebook link; a free preliminary consultation by sending a panoramic X-ray over WhatsApp, plus per-service WhatsApp appointment links; 3D dental tomography used for implant planning; implant treatment explained in detail; structured business data present; “Emergency dental service” listed as a Google Business Profile category, not contradicted by the site. Google listing: 4.4 from 18 reviews, newest 2026-06-06 (over 3 months old); owner replies to individual reviews including a disputed one; no clear sign of manipulation. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: recurring complaints (two of the 18 reviews are 1-star without text), presence on other review platforms, and whether the clinic documents serving foreign patients or English-speaking staff (the site is Turkish-only with no such wording). |
| 2026-09-24 | Myra Dental Centre | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s Turkish-language site (about/team, surgery, implant, orthodontics and price-titled pages, and the full sitemap), its English site linked from the Google listing (homepage and price page) and its Google listing. Recorded: several dentists named with specializations including an orthodontist and a prosthodontics specialist; genuine clinic photo on the Google listing; panoramic X-ray and CBCT used for implant planning; orthodontics and jaw/dental surgery offered; no emergency/same-day acute-care page; services explained step by step; structured business data and dedicated service pages present; a published price list on the English site (e.g. teeth cleaning £100, composite filling £60, zirconium crown £210, implants from £400) and a free first consultation that includes a 3D tomography scan. Google listing: 4.9 from 770 reviews (previously recorded as 695), newest 2026-09-21, owner replies to individual reviews back to 2023; no recurring complaint theme in the lowest-rated reviews and no clear sign of manipulation. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. |
| 2026-09-24 | Panoramik Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s Turkish site (implant, doctors, about and contact pages, and the full sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine exterior photo on the Google listing matching the clinic’s own signage; 3D tomography (CBCT) used for implant assessment; the appointment-request form collects only name, phone and email, with no service or time selection; the implant procedure explained as a multi-step process; structured business data present. Corrected: the doctors page names six dentists with their specializations, including an orthodontist and a pedodontist. Google listing: 4.4 from 124 reviews, newest 2026-09-21, same-day owner replies to individual reviews; recurring complaints about failed bridge, crown and filling work across 2023–2026; no clear sign of review manipulation. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: emergency care (the about page lists emergency dentistry, while a 2026-09-21 review describes a same-day pain patient being turned away), a basic panoramic X-ray separate from the tomography already documented, and presence on WhatClinic or similar review platforms. |
| 2026-09-24 | Sundent Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's English site (implant, composite-bonding and home pages, and the full sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine treatment-room photo on the Google listing; panoramic X-ray and CBCT described as part of the clinic's own implant workup; a free online consultation by sending X-rays/photos over WhatsApp; no emergency/same-day acute-care page; the implant procedure explained as a multi-step clinical process; Saturday hours published; more than 20 dedicated treatment pages. The site's "cost in Turkey vs Europe/USA" tables on the implant and composite-bonding pages are country-level estimates, not the clinic's own quoted prices, so no price criterion was changed. Google listing: 4.9 from 236 reviews, newest 2026-09-23, prompt owner replies in the reviewer's own language; no recurring complaint theme in the lowest-rated reviews (one of which is a positive review mis-rated at 1 star) and no clear sign of manipulation despite a high 5-star share, given visible disputed negative reviews. Not found in TripAdvisor's own search. Still unverified: presence on WhatClinic or similar review platforms. |
| 2026-09-24 | VDC Dental Clinic Turkey | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic’s English site (treatments, digital-dentistry and implant pages, full 5-language sitemap) and its Google listing (matched to the clinic by its own site URL and phone number, though the listing displays under the generic name "Dental Clinic Antalya"). Recorded: genuine waiting-room photo on the Google listing; CBCT/cone-beam imaging described as part of the clinic’s own digital workflow; the digital workflow explained step by step; Saturday hours published; structured business data present; a Trustpilot rating (4.5 from 12 reviews) shown and linked on the clinic’s site. The site’s 110-page sitemap covers only cosmetic and implant dentistry (crowns, veneers, implants, whitening, smile design) with no orthodontics, pediatric dentistry or emergency page, so those services are recorded as not offered. Google listing: 4.9 from 131 reviews, newest 2026-09-09, at least one substantive dated owner reply; recurring complaints about lasting pain after crown and whitening work in several 1-star reviews from 2023–2024. Not found in TripAdvisor’s own search. Still unverified: whether the review pattern shows signs of manipulation. |
| 2026-09-14 | Smile Dental Turkey | Re-verification 2026-09-14 at the clinic's request (free-check lead). The site was read in full (144 pages). The clinic licence is now verified: the Ministry of Health health-tourism list carries the clinic under its registered facility name, Özel Falez Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği Fener Şubesi (row 252, address match), which the site and its structured data also name; earlier checks searched the trade name only. Also settled: Google listing re-read (4.9 from 169 reviews, owner replies, photographs of the premises), Trustpilot (4.9 from 1,162 reviews), structured data present, detailed treatment pages, Saturday opening, and sedation recorded as not offered (the clinic states it uses local anaesthesia only). The summary no longer says prices are quote-only - the itemised price list was already recorded on 2026-09-07. The twin cards on the Antalya and Turkey directories now carry the same data. |
| 2026-09-10 | Smile Dental Turkey | Twin parity 2026-09-10 (clinicLicense): this card published "licence not published" for a clinic the twin card turkey-dental deliberately left unverified. Both cards searched the same Ministry of Health health-tourism authorisation list, both under the clinic's trade name, and the twin recorded that resolving it needs the registered legal-entity name, which neither card has. Since a trade-name miss on a registry keyed by registered facility names is not a negative — three other cards in this batch were found that way — the value is withdrawn from verified-false to "not verified". Both readings stay cited. |
| 2026-09-07 | Adalya Dental Clinic | 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 | Adalya Dental Clinic | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no citable evidence found on re-verification: the clinic publishes an itemised price page at adalyadentalclinic.com/antalya-dentist-prices-turkey/ with per-treatment figures in GBP/EUR/USD, fetched 2026-09-07, so the 'no prices published' premise no longer holds, and no report of a quoted price not being honoured is citable). |
| 2026-09-07 | Adalya Dental Clinic | PriceTransparency re-evaluated 2026-09-07 (Y16): clinic now publishes a 2026 itemised price list (previously false). pricesPublished, cleaningPriceListed, fillingPriceListed, crownPriceListed and implantPriceListed now true; consultationPriceListed and xrayPriceListed stay false — neither is priced or offered free anywhere on the site. See adalya-dental-prices-2026-09-07. |
| 2026-09-07 | Altindent Özel Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no evidence of bait/opacity; non-publication is scored by price criteria). |

| 2026-09-07 | Markasya Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Kliniği | 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. |
| 2026-09-07 | Mustafa Tuncer Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no evidence of bait/opacity; non-publication is scored by price criteria). |

| 2026-09-07 | Smile Dental Turkey | 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 | Smile Dental Turkey | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no citable evidence found on re-verification: smiledentalturkey.com/dental-treatment-prices-in-turkey/, fetched 2026-09-07, publishes a full itemised price table in GBP/EUR/USD — 'Implants From £392, Crowns & Veneers From £167' — plus per-patient case studies with itemised cost breakdowns, so the 'Save 80% without figures' premise no longer holds). |
| 2026-09-07 | Smile Dental Turkey | PriceTransparency re-evaluated 2026-09-07 (Y16): clinic now publishes a full itemised price list (previously false). pricesPublished, cleaningPriceListed, fillingPriceListed, crownPriceListed, implantPriceListed and consultationPriceListed (free, stated explicitly) now true; xrayPriceListed stays false — X-rays are only ever described as bundled into treatment prices, never priced on their own. See smile-dental-turkey-prices-2026-09-07 and smile-dental-turkey-packages-2026-09-07. |
| 2026-09-07 | Sundent Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no evidence of bait/opacity; non-publication is scored by price criteria). |
| 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 | Adalya Dental Clinic | Re-verified live facts (website, contacts, operating status, Google reputation): no changes. A Google-sourced rating (4.8, 66 reviews) surfaced via a Trustindex aggregator page, but no acceptable-format Google Maps source URL (place/cid/short-link) could be located today, so no rating value was recorded. |

| 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. |
