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.
- ? General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — Not verified
Summary
Single-site practice in L'Avenue Tower, Changning, built around digital smile design and pre-treatment planning. The clinic publishes a six-dentist team with names in both English and Chinese, their education and their clinical focus, keeps parallel English and Chinese sites and a dedicated international-patient page, and marks up its pages with schema.org Dentist data.
Ranking-domain settlement (2026-09-07): the indexing-quality note on this card flagged that "a different clinic's domain (dds-dental.com) also surfaced" in D4's search results. Resolved: dds-dental.com is confirmed NOT a D4 domain. It is DDS Dental Care's (Shanghai Dishi Kouqiang Menzhenbu, card dds-dental-care-shanghai) own domain — its Google Business Profile's website field reads dds-dental.com/location.html (see that card's "gm" source) — and it client-side-redirects to https://www.ddsdentalcare.com/ (confirmed 2026-09-07: a fetch of http://dds-dental.com/ returns a JS/meta redirect snippet with canonical link and window.location.replace both pointing at https://www.ddsdentalcare.com/). It surfaced in D4's results only because of generic keyword overlap ("D4" vs "DDS" dental, Shanghai) in a broad-name web search, not because D4 operates it. contacts.website stays https://www.d4dental.com/, unchanged.

Score Breakdown
Every criterion below is scored from public sources. ✓ verified yes · ✗ verified no / not found · ◐ partial · ? unverified (scores 0, not a negative finding).
Information Transparency
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed Six dentists named in Latin and Chinese: Dr. Herman Hsu, Dr. Christine Chen, Dr. Michelle Kao, Dr. Elaine Niu, Dr. Victor Sun, Dr. Joy Guo. [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed Each dentist carries a clinical focus and their degrees and universities. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos Genuine photo of the clinic's own team reviewing a real patient case on its own branded screen [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Consultation pathways published for smile design and veneers, adult orthodontics, paediatric growth management, digital implant planning and periodontal maintenance. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Landline, WhatsApp Business, WeChat ID, address and opening hours. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version Full parallel English and Chinese sites plus a dedicated English page for international patients. [s1] [s5] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published Address published on the contact page and repeated in the site's schema.org PostalAddress with postcode 200051; no embedded map. Premises corroborated on 2026-09-07 by a publisher other than the clinic: Planmeca’s 2024-01-04 article places the practice inside the L’Avenue mall, the building at 99 Xianxia Road carried here, and records that the clinic had moved there (mfg1). The Digital Smile Design network directory still prints the earlier Hong Kong Plaza address and was not used for this field. [s3] [s4] [mfg1] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published Home, about, contact and international-patient pages were read; the site states that fees require examination and discussion and publishes no price list or ranges. [s1] [s3] [s5] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed No price figures on any page of the clinic's site (English and Chinese); fees are given only after an examination [d4-dental-clinic-shanghai-deepen] [s5] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed No price figures on any page of the clinic's site (English and Chinese); fees are given only after an examination [d4-dental-clinic-shanghai-deepen] [s5] | 0/2 |

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) No Google Maps place page exists for this clinic. Four query variants were run in a real browser on 2026-09-06, as the China protocol requires.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-29 | Re-checked on 2026-09-29 whether the clinic has an identifiable Facebook page: a search of Facebook found the clinic's own page under the name D4 Dental Clinic, address matching the clinic's Xianxia Road location. |
| 2026-09-29 | Checked TripAdvisor's own search and the clinic's website for a TripAdvisor profile: none found on either channel. |
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's whole website (77 pages in English and Chinese). Recorded: a photo of the clinic's own team reviewing a patient case, plus individual named-doctor headshots; no price figures for cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants, consultations or X-rays — the site states that fees are set after an examination. Google reputation stays unrecorded, as no Google Business listing matching this clinic was found (a same-named clinic in India was correctly not borrowed). Still unverified: TripAdvisor, Facebook page and other review platforms. |
| 2026-09-07 | Ranking-domain settlement: resolved the indexing-quality flag that dds-dental.com surfaced in this card's search results. Confirmed dds-dental.com is DDS Dental Care's own domain (client-side-redirects to ddsdentalcare.com, and DDS Dental Care's Google Business Profile website field points to it) — a different clinic, not D4. No change to contacts.website (stays d4dental.com). |
| 2026-09-07 | Second-channel pass: two publishers independent of the clinic were added — Planmeca’s article of 2024-01-04, which places the practice inside the L’Avenue mall (the building at 99 Xianxia Road on this card), names Dr Herman Hsu as owner and records the relocation, and the Digital Smile Design clinic-network directory entry, which names the same operator but still prints the clinic’s former Hong Kong Plaza address. The suite number and telephone on this card remain attested only by the clinic’s own contact page; the Chinese platforms that could confirm them were not readable by automated fetch on 2026-09-07 (Dianping login wall, Baidu Map recaptcha flag, Amap anti-bot page / HTTP 500). Nothing was taken as a rating, a review count or a coordinate. |
| 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, about, contact, international patients) including its schema.org markup. 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. |
