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

17 / 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) as of 2026-09-25 [cabinet-dr-nacer-cherif-annaba-deepen] 6/6
◐ Google review volume as of 2026-09-25 [cabinet-dr-nacer-cherif-annaba-deepen] 2.5/3
✓ Review recency Newest review dated 2026-09-03. [cabinet-dr-nacer-cherif-annaba-deepen] 3/3
✗ Clinic responds to reviews No owner reply appears on any of the 8 visible reviews. Absence from a relevance-ordered preview is weaker evidence than a positive finding, so this records what the page shows rather than proving the clinic never replies. Sample: the 8 reviews Google Maps rendered on the place page's Reviews tab on 2026-09-03, read in a browser, in Google's relevance order — Maps' "Sort reviews" control would not open (clicked by element reference and by a dispatched in-page click(); the menu never opened), so no newest-first ordering was available. Published star histogram 5★→1★: 342/3/0/2/6, which sums to the 353 reviews in the place header. [s3] 0/2
✓ No recurring complaints One of the eight visible reviews is negative - a one-star describing work done without explanation and a later X-ray that revealed the outcome. No concrete issue is raised twice. Relevance order under-represents the negative tail - the histogram holds six one-star and two two-star reviews. Sample: the 8 reviews Google Maps rendered on the place page's Reviews tab on 2026-09-03, read in a browser, in Google's relevance order — Maps' "Sort reviews" control would not open (clicked by element reference and by a dispatched in-page click(); the menu never opened), so no newest-first ordering was available. Published star histogram 5★→1★: 342/3/0/2/6, which sums to the 353 reviews in the place header. [s3] 2/2
✓ No suspicious review patterns Examined on 2026-09-03 in a browser — 4.9 over 353 reviews is high enough volume to warrant checking. Histogram 342/3/0/2/6: six one-star and two two-star reviews stand unremoved, so the record carries genuine dissent rather than being a manufactured block. Sample of 8 reviews read: dates spread over two to three years plus a one-star review from 4 months ago, so there is no burst, and the wording is individual rather than templated. 5 of the 8 reviewers held a single review, which Google’s relevance sort tends to surface and which was not treated on its own as evidence of manipulation. No manipulation signal found. [s3] 2/2
✓ Active Facebook presence Facebook page title confirmed: "Cabinet de chirurgie et d’esthétique dentaire dr. Nacer cherif Annaba". [s2] 1/1
✗ TripAdvisor presence TripAdvisor's own search has no listing for this clinic, and its Google listing does not link to TripAdvisor. [cabinet-dr-nacer-cherif-annaba-deepen-2] [cabinet-dr-nacer-cherif-annaba-deepen] 0/0.5

Communication & Service

5 / 10

How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
