General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation
Whether the clinic documents treatment under general anaesthesia or deep / twilight sedation — "sleep dentistry", where the patient is asleep and unaware (does not feel, see, or hear the procedure). Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Reputation & Reviews
10 / 20
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.
| ◐ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) Read live on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08. Unchanged from the headless reading of 2026-09-07. The star histogram — 23 five-star, 3 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star and 4 one-star — sums to 30, matching the 30 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.367 reproduces the published 4.4. [gmp3] [gmp3b] [gmpb] | 3/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-08 from the place-page header, and the star histogram sums to the same figure. The card carried no count before this pass: the headless map method used in phase C returns the rating but never the review count, which is why every French card was queued to the browser worklist. The self-published figure the worklist asked to cross-check does not hold: the practice's own site advertises an aggregate of 4.94 on 84 reviews, and the live Google place carries 4.4 on 30. Nothing of the clinic's own figure has been adopted; the discrepancy is recorded as a finding. [gmpb] | 1/3 |
| ◐ | Review recency The newest review visible is seven months old, which proves the within_year bucket and no better. Visible dates: 7 months, 11 months, then 1, 1, 1, 2, 6 and 10 years. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 1.5/3 |
| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews No owner reply appears under any of the eight reviews visible on the place page on 2026-09-08, and every one of them carries text, so the negative is evidenced rather than assumed. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No criticism appears in the visible sample; the one- and two-star mass is 4 of 30 ratings, 13.3 %, and those four accounts are not readable because Maps does not let the review list be filtered by star rating. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Judged on the histogram shape, the spread of dates, the variety of reviewers and the wording, on 2026-09-08. 23 five-star with three four-star and four one-star ratings; the visible reviews run from seven months to ten years, name three different clinicians and vary in length and voice. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence | 0/1 |
| ? | TripAdvisor presence | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Own site's sameAs lists Instagram, Doctolib and Avis Patients Vérifiés. [s1] | 0.5/0.5 |

AI & Search Visibility
2.5 / 10
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist France", "English speaking dentist France", "dental implants France", "emergency dentist France", "France dental clinic for expats".

Red Flags
- low Aggressive marketing practices (-1 pts) — Self-published aggregate rating the live record does not support. The clinic’s own site advertises 4.94 out of 5 from 84 reviews in its schema.org markup; its Google Business record, opened in a browser on 2026-09-08, carries 4.4 from 30 — both the score and the base are overstated by the clinic itself. No figure from the clinic’s own markup was adopted into this card; the rating and count recorded here are the live ones. [s1] [gmpb]
Red-flag penalty applied: -1 points (capped at -20).

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-09 | Manual red flag aggressive_marketing (low) set at gate E2: the clinic publishes 4.94/84 in its own schema.org markup against a live Google record of 4.4/30 (phase-I browser pass, 2026-09-08). Wave-4 precedent for an unverifiable superlative claim published by the clinic itself (e-decisions §1.4 / §9 #5). cabinet-dentaire-mc2l-marseille, whose self-published 4.8/8 sits 0.3 above a live 4.5, is deliberately not flagged — a gap that small on a base of eight is staleness, not a claim. |
| 2026-09-08 | Browser pass (phase I): the clinic’s Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read on both its Reviews and Overview tabs. Recorded from it: the rating re-verified against the star histogram, the review count (previously unknown — the headless map method never returns it), the histogram itself (23/3/0/0/4 = 30, weighted mean 4.367), review recency, the owner-reply state, the complaint reading and the manipulation reading from the eight most-relevant reviews, the lead owner photograph and the full published opening week. Fields this pass did not measure are untouched. |
| 2026-09-07 | Adversarial verification pass (D-france). Google rating 4.4 and geo reproduced under an independent query form (3 m from the card pin); both RPPS numbers re-confirmed live against the ONCD annuaire. The investigative sentence about Dr Richelme's registry row was moved out of the licence value into the doctor note, so the licence column carries the number only. The gap between the clinic's self-published AggregateRating (4.94/84) and the live Google figure (4.4) is disclosed in the structured-data note. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial research pass. Surfaced by the wave-5 AV pass (dental implants Marseille). Own site read live, including its own AggregateRating/review block (recorded as clinic-published, not substituted for a live Google figure). Google Maps headless probe resolved the exact POI. ONCD confirmed both named doctors' RPPS numbers; Dr Damiani's address matches exactly, Dr Richelme's registry entry carries mode d'exercice 'Autre' with no address to cross-check. |
