Reputation & Reviews
15.5 / 20

|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Presence on review platforms checked 2026-10-02: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed, DZDoc, Algeria Yellow Pages or Trustpilot. |
| 2026-09-29 | Added to the directory on 2026-09-29: verified via all 15 pages of the clinic's own website, its Google Business Profile and a surname search of the Algiers regional dental order's public register. Recorded: three named, specialised dentists, panoramic X-ray and a dental CT scanner on site, implantology, orthodontics and gum surgery offered, no prices published, no pediatric or emergency care, a 5.0 rating from 81 reviews with frequent owner replies, and the lead dentist's registration number in the dental order's register (3587/16); the other two dentists were not found in that register. Four same-day 5-star reviews from single-review accounts were recorded as a suspicious review pattern. Still unverified: other review platforms besides TripAdvisor, English-speaking staff, and a clinic-level operating licence. |
