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
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) Star histogram read live on 2026-09-06 from the place page: 27 five-star, 0 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star, 0 one-star. The buckets sum to 27, matching the 27 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 5.000 reproduces the published 5. Attribution re-checked automatically on 2026-09-07 after the verification pass found the listing pin 19.7 km from the published address: the Gubei and the Pudong queries return the same single place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss and the listing carries this clinic’s own website, its published phone and an owner-written description naming this card’s Gubei address, so this reading belongs to this clinic and not to another branch — what is wrong on the listing is its pin, not its identity (see geoSuppressed). [gmp1] [gmp2] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-06 from the place-page header; the star histogram sums to the same figure. The 27 recorded by the verification pass on 2026-09-05 was re-read on the live page and confirmed unchanged. Attribution re-checked automatically on 2026-09-07 after the verification pass found the listing pin 19.7 km from the published address: the Gubei and the Pudong queries return the same single place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss and the listing carries this clinic’s own website, its published phone and an owner-written description naming this card’s Gubei address, so this reading belongs to this clinic and not to another branch — what is wrong on the listing is its pin, not its identity (see geoSuppressed). [gmp1] [gmp2] | 1/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest review visible is 2 months old, which proves the within-3-months bucket and no better. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. Attribution re-checked automatically on 2026-09-07 after the verification pass found the listing pin 19.7 km from the published address: the Gubei and the Pudong queries return the same single place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss and the listing carries this clinic’s own website, its published phone and an owner-written description naming this card’s Gubei address, so this reading belongs to this clinic and not to another branch — what is wrong on the listing is its pin, not its identity (see geoSuppressed). [gmp1] [gmp2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner replied under a visible review, by name and in English ("Thank you so much for your kind review!" under an eight-month-old five-star). This is the only Chinese card in the country where an owner reply was found. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. Attribution re-checked automatically on 2026-09-07 after the verification pass found the listing pin 19.7 km from the published address: the Gubei and the Pudong queries return the same single place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss and the listing carries this clinic’s own website, its published phone and an owner-written description naming this card’s Gubei address, so this reading belongs to this clinic and not to another branch — what is wrong on the listing is its pin, not its identity (see geoSuppressed). [gmp1] [gmp2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints None of the three reviews Google renders is critical, and the histogram carries no rating below five stars anywhere in the 27-review base, so there is no unread negative tail to disclose. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. Attribution re-checked automatically on 2026-09-07 after the verification pass found the listing pin 19.7 km from the published address: the Gubei and the Pudong queries return the same single place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss and the listing carries this clinic’s own website, its published phone and an owner-written description naming this card’s Gubei address, so this reading belongs to this clinic and not to another branch — what is wrong on the listing is its pin, not its identity (see geoSuppressed). [gmp1] [gmp2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns The clean 27/0/0/0/0 wall was examined rather than assumed benign. The three visible reviewers hold 1, 3 and 2 reviews but come from three different countries and write in three different registers, their dates are spread across six months, they name a specific dentist and describe different treatments, and the owner answers them individually. A boutique clinic serving a small expatriate base produces this shape; nothing in the wording, the dates or the accounts carries a manipulation signature. The shape is recorded so the gate can see it was considered. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. Attribution re-checked automatically on 2026-09-07 after the verification pass found the listing pin 19.7 km from the published address: the Gubei and the Pudong queries return the same single place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss and the listing carries this clinic’s own website, its published phone and an owner-written description naming this card’s Gubei address, so this reading belongs to this clinic and not to another branch — what is wrong on the listing is its pin, not its identity (see geoSuppressed).

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic website (homepage, sitemap and service pages): structured data found. |
| 2026-09-07 | Pin attribution audited automated after the verification pass recorded the Google pin as ~19.7 km from the published address and a later geo backfill silently re-derived it from contacts.googleMapsUrl. The place record behind that URL (place id ChIJ5wXjK1OKOCkRCDUKuqutxss) was read through the Google Maps place backend: it carries the clinic’s own website aidencare.com, the phone +86 191 1738 6506 the clinic publishes, rating 5.0 from 27 reviews, no "Claim this business" call-to-action, and an owner-written description ending "We are located in one of Shanghai’s most iconic buildings at Gubei Soho, 30F, 188 Hongbaoshi Road, Changning, Shanghai" — this card’s address. Map searches for Aidencare Gubei, Aidencare Pudong and the Chinese name Yide'en Kouqiang Shanghai all return that one place and no second Shanghai branch, so the rating, review count, histogram and review reading are correctly attributed and stay. The listing publishes no street address; its only location signal is the pin at 31.2689599,121.5865799, which Google itself reverse-geocodes as "7H9P+HJP Pudong, Shanghai, China", 19.6 km east of Gubei Soho. Verdict: right clinic, wrong pin. geo stays null and the card now carries geoSuppressed, so nothing re-derives the Pudong pin; a correct pin needs a source other than the Google listing. |
| 2026-09-06 | Checked by hand in a browser: the Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read for rating, review count, star histogram, review recency, owner replies, complaint and manipulation reading, listing website, phone, address and pin coordinates; the checks that needed a rendering browser were worked through on the clinic own channels. |
| 2026-09-04 | Initial data collection for the China Dental Transparency & Trust Index: verified from the clinic's own English and Chinese site (home, team, contact, careers, insurance and blog pages). Google Maps could not be opened from our network after four separate searches, so rating, review count and coordinates are unverified. Clinic licence unverified: the Shanghai and national Chinese registers are both unreachable from outside mainland China. |
