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
2.5 / 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) Star histogram read live on 2026-09-06 from the place page: 1 five-star, 0 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star, 1 one-star. The buckets sum to 2, matching the 2 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 3.000 reproduces the published 3. [gmp1] | 1/6 |

| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews The Google listing is unclaimed (it offers "Claim this business"), so no owner replies to reviews (read 2026-09-25). [southern-medical-university-stomatology-guangzhou-gbp-2026-09-25] | 0/2 |
| ? | No recurring complaints Only 2 Google reviews exist, too few to show whether a complaint recurs (read 2026-10-05). | 0/2 |
| ? | No suspicious review patterns The listing carries only 2 Google reviews (2016-04-17 to 2023-10-17), fewer than the ten needed to judge a pattern, so the criterion is left unassessed (read 2026-10-05). | 0/2 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Reputation check 2026-10-05 on the clinic's Google listing (2 reviews read): nothing settled; recurring complaints, suspicious review patterns left unassessed. |
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic website (homepage, sitemap and service pages): no structured data found. |
| 2026-10-01 | Searched the review platforms for the clinic: found its profile on Haodf and recorded presence on another platform. |
| 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 its English name, address matching the clinic's Jiangnan Avenue South, Haizhu location. |
| 2026-09-29 | Viewed sample staff portraits from the hospital's own homepage expert section: genuine named-staff photography, not stock. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints and no suspicious review patterns now unverified: 2 Google reviews are too few to show a pattern; no owner replies to reviews: the Google listing is unclaimed. |
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the hospital's home page and menu, about 230 department and patient-guide pages, all 22 pages of hospital announcements, and the Google Business listing (read newest-first). Recorded: the hospital's own implant-service price list (15 items; single implant placement 2,023 yuan, with a single standard implant capped at 5,184 yuan excluding materials); no prices for cleaning, fillings, crowns, consultations or X-rays. Corrected: the hospital does publish a price list (implant services, 2023-03-10). The newest of the listing's 2 reviews is dated 2023-10-17. Not listed on TripAdvisor. Rating (3.0) and review count (2) are unchanged. Still unverified: real premises photos, CBCT equipment, Facebook page, WhatsApp/LINE, English-language service, opening hours and other review platforms. |
| 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 against the hospital's own website and specialist directory, the Guangzhou Municipal Health Commission institution search platform (cut-off 2026-06-30) and an Google Maps place page read on 2026-09-04. |
