| Date | Subject | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-09-03 | Al Amal Smile Centre | Google rating and review count re-read live in a browser on the Maps place page (4.1 / 17): unchanged from the 2026-09-02 reading, which is therefore corroborated. |
| 2026-09-03 | Al Amal Smile Centre | Reputation pass 2026-09-03 (browser): the clinic's Google Maps place page was reopened on its Reviews tab and the star histogram, the visible reviews, their dates, their reviewer profiles and the owner replies were read. reviewRecency, respondsToReviews, recurringComplaints and suspiciousReviewPatterns set from that read, each carrying the sample size and the read order on the criterion itself. Rating and review count reproduced unchanged from the histogram. recurringComplaints false; suspiciousReviewPatterns false. |
| 2026-09-03 | Al Rabeea Dental Center Isa Town | Rule A: serviceListPublished re-sourced from the register (reg1) to the clinic's own chain-wide /services/ page (real itemised list found) — value stays true but the basis changes from "published by a directory/register" to "published by the clinic", with the chain-wide caveat disclosed. Rule E: NHRA facility register snapshot date (2026-02-04) prepended to the licence text so the 24-07-2026 expiry doesn't read as an unexplained lapse. Prices: alrabeehdental.com (chain site) — checked /prices, /price-list, /pricing, /offers, /fees paths plus the homepage nav for a price link — no price list found; pricesPublished:false / opaque_prices stands. |

| 2026-09-03 | Al Safa Dental Center | Rule E: NHRA facility register snapshot date (2026-02-04) prepended to the licence text so the 22-05-2026 expiry doesn't read as an unexplained lapse. Infra: hasXray/hasCBCT set from the register's Support_Service field (reg1: Intra-Oral Dental X-Ray only). |

Rating and review count reproduced unchanged from the histogram. recurringComplaints false; suspiciousReviewPatterns false. |
| 2026-09-03 | Albaqali Dental Center | Rule A: serviceListPublished true->false — the clinic's own site is a one-page link-in-bio landing page with no service list (checked 2026-09-03); the NHRA register text it was previously sourced to is a register fact, not a clinic publication, and moved to the clinic note. Rule E: NHRA facility register snapshot date (2026-02-04) prepended to the licence text so the 22-03-2026 expiry doesn't read as an unexplained lapse. Prices: same one-page site has no /prices path or price content — pricesPublished:false / opaque_prices stands. |

| 2026-09-03 | Awal Dental Specialist Center | Rule A: serviceListPublished true->null — register-sourced only (reg1); the s1 source is a third-party zavis.ai directory listing, not the clinic's own channel; no website/Facebook to check; Google Business profile not checkable via curl. |

| 2026-09-03 | Awal Dental Specialist Center | Rule A via the Google Business profile (browser, 2026-09-03): serviceListPublished null -> false. The clinic-managed Maps place page was opened and read; it renders no Services or Products tab and no 'From the business' description, only the category 'Dental clinic'. This closes the "GBP not checkable without a browser" caveat left by the 2026-09-03 policy pass, which had left the value null for exactly that reason. |
| 2026-09-03 | Barada Dental Center | Rule A: serviceListPublished true->null — register-sourced only (reg1), the s1 source is a third-party zavis.ai directory listing not the clinic's own channel, and there is no website/Facebook to check; Google Business profile not checkable via curl. Rule E: NHRA facility register snapshot date (2026-02-04) prepended to the licence text so the 17-07-2026 expiry doesn't read as an unexplained lapse. |

| 2026-09-03 | Doctor Monther Numan Dental Clinic | Coverage top-up: the Maps citation was a /maps/search/ query URL, not a place page. The place page was opened in a browser, identity confirmed by name, address, phone and website, and the citation replaced with the resolved place URL (https://www.google.com/maps/search/Monther+Numan+Dental+Clinic+Manama+Bahrain -> place page). geo filled from the map pin; rating 4.8 / 300 re-read live and unchanged. |

| 2026-09-03 | Dr. Sadiq Sharaf Dental Center | Not-found rule: "Dr. Mariam Madan" re-checked against the re-downloaded NHRA September 2026 practitioner list (1,323 rows) — no dentist surnamed Madan is registered at either Sadiq Sharaf branch; the only Madans in the whole register work elsewhere. license:null + licenseNotFound: 2026-09-02 replaces the narrative-string placeholder. Prices: sadiqsharafdentalcenter.com — checked /prices, /price-list, /pricing, /offers, /fees paths plus the homepage nav for a price link — no price list found; pricesPublished:false / opaque_prices stands. |

| 2026-09-03 | Dr.Lamya's Laser Specialist Dental Center | Google rating and review count re-read live in a browser (4.4 / 95, unchanged). Branch identity settled: the place page carries the Muharraq address (Bldg 775 Road 439), phone +973 1732 4455 and drlamyas.net, so this card tracks the Muharraq listing; the differing third-party figure belongs to the brand's other (Riffa) listing. |

Rating and review count reproduced unchanged from the histogram. recurringComplaints false; suspiciousReviewPatterns false. |
| 2026-09-03 | Lazord Dental Center | Google review count re-read live in a browser: 251 -> 252 (rating 5.0 unchanged). suspiciousReviewPatterns examined on the place page for the first time and set to false: the star histogram shows one four-star and one two-star review among 252, the eight rendered reviews span 2 to 11 months with no burst, wording is individual rather than templated, and two established Local Guide accounts are among the reviewers. |
| 2026-09-03 | Lazord Dental Center | Rule A: serviceListPublished true->null — was sourced only to the NHRA register (reg1), not the clinic itself; no website or Facebook/Instagram exists to check, and the Google Business profile is not checkable via curl. Register text moved to the clinic note as a disclosed fact. |

| 2026-09-03 | Mazaya Dental Center | Rule A: dentistNamesListed true->false — re-checked the clinic's own site (home, about) and Facebook page; no team/doctors page exists anywhere, and the only dentist names found sit inside patient testimonial quotes, not a clinic-asserted roster (parallel to this card's existing pricesPublished testimonial finding). Rule E: NHRA facility register snapshot date (2026-02-04) prepended to the licence text so the 13-04-2026 expiry doesn't read as an unexplained lapse. Prices: mazayadc.com — checked /prices, /price-list, /pricing, /offers, /fees paths plus the homepage nav for a price link — no price list found; pricesPublished:false / opaque_prices stands. |

Rating and review count reproduced unchanged from the histogram. recurringComplaints false; suspiciousReviewPatterns false. |
| 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. |
| 2026-09-03 | Orient Dental Center | Google rating and review count re-read live in a browser on the Maps place page (4.9 / 173): unchanged from the 2026-09-02 reading, which is therefore corroborated. |

| 2026-09-03 | Signature Dental Centre by Dr. Leena Al-Sheerawi | Rule A: serviceListPublished true->null — register-sourced only (reg1); the clinic's former domain (signaturedc.com) now resolves to unrelated third-party content, and there is no Facebook to check; Google Business profile not checkable via curl. Rule E: NHRA facility register snapshot date (2026-02-04) prepended to the licence text so the 24-04-2026 expiry doesn't read as an unexplained lapse. |

| 2026-09-03 | Taghreed Dental Center | Rule A: serviceListPublished and dentistNamesListed true->null — both were register/review-sourced, not clinic-published; no website or Facebook exists to check, Google Business profile not checkable via curl. Not-found rule: "Dr. Hawra" and "Dr Shweta" re-checked against the re-downloaded NHRA September 2026 list (1,323 rows, all transliterations tried) — zero match for either; both now carry license:null + licenseNotFound: 2026-09-02 replacing the narrative-string placeholders. |

| 2026-09-03 | Taghreed Dental Center | Ruling applied (Rule A): dentistNamesListed null -> false. Own channels checked (Google Business profile; no website) and empty: the Maps place page's Overview pane names no dentist. sourceIds set to the Maps place source (sm). |
| 2026-09-03 | The Best Dental Center (Al Haddad Plaza) | Not-found rule: re-downloaded and parsed the NHRA September 2026 practitioner list (1,323 rows) directly. "Anil Krishnan" — zero match under any spelling — now carries licenseNotFound: 2026-09-02 with license:null instead of a bare null that misleadingly reads as "not checked yet". "Amal Ameer Abdulla Salman" — confirmed as "Amal Abdulameer Abdulla Salman Mohamed", licence 11018202, registered at UNICARE DENTAL CENTER W.L.L — was found, just elsewhere, so licenseNotFound does not apply; her row now carries the real licence number instead of null, matching the Ali/Yumna "found elsewhere" pattern already used on this card's siblings. |

| 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. |
