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: 1 five-star, 0 four-star, 1 three-star, 0 two-star, 0 one-star. The buckets sum to 2, matching the 2 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 4.000 reproduces the published 4. [gmp1] | 3/6 |
| ✗ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-06 from the place-page header; the star histogram sums to the same figure. [gmp1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Review recency as of 2026-09-24; newest of the listing's 2 reviews (unchanged) is 2019-12-17, about 6.75 years old [sun-yat-sen-stomatology-guangzhou-deepen-3] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews The Google listing is unclaimed (it offers "Claim this business"), so no owner replies to reviews (read 2026-09-25). [sun-yat-sen-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 (2016-10-07 to 2019-12-17), fewer than the ten needed to judge a pattern, so the criterion is left unassessed (read 2026-10-05). | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Active Facebook presence Facebook searches by the hospital's Chinese and English names found only the parent university's pages; no page of the stomatological hospital [sun-yat-sen-stomatology-guangzhou-deepen-8] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found by name; the hospital site does not link to one [sun-yat-sen-stomatology-guangzhou-deepen-4] [sun-yat-sen-stomatology-guangzhou-deepen-5] [sun-yat-sen-stomatology-guangzhou-deepen-6] | 0/0.5 |

Licensing & Credentials
Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.
Clinic operating licence: Medical Institution Practising Licence, registration number 350005440102151231 — Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University, dental hospital, grade 3 (tertiary), non-profit, Yuexiu District, 553 dental chairs and 120 beds; licensed scope: internal medicine; dentistry; endodontics and restorative dentistry; periodontology; oral mucosal disease; paediatric dentistry; oral and maxillofacial surgery; prosthodontics; orthodontics; implantology; dental anaesthesia; preventive dentistry; cosmetic surgery; cosmetic dentistry; medical laboratory; pathology; medical imaging; X-ray diagnostics; CT diagnostics; ultrasound diagnostics; ECG diagnostics.

(The platform's dental subset was paged to exhaustion on 2026-09-04 (1,918 rows returned against a declared count of 1,918) and the unfiltered set holds 8,582 institutions, so no silent truncation.

The registered second name Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University — Internet Hospital covers its internet-hospital service. The national NHC institution register is unreachable from outside mainland China.) [reg1]

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. |
| 2026-10-01 | Searched the review platforms for the clinic: found its profile on Haodf and recorded presence on another platform. |
| 2026-10-01 | Viewed the image on the hospital's introduction page on 2026-10-01: it is a photo of the hospital's own signed Tianhe campus building, so real clinic photos are recorded. |
| 2026-09-30 | Searched Facebook for the clinic by its Chinese name and by its English name; none of the searches found a page of the clinic. Recorded absence from Facebook. |
| 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 patient-guide, medical-insurance, notice, department, radiology and English pages, plus the Google Business listing (read newest-first). Recorded: CBCT diagnostic imaging in the radiology department; no structured business data; the Guangzhou public-hospital price table the hospital posts, with consultation (25 yuan), scaling, filling, crown and dental X-ray/CBCT prices. Corrected: the hospital does publish a price list (its 2026-06-29 notice). The newest of the listing's 2 reviews is about 6.75 years old (count unchanged). Not listed on TripAdvisor. The listing's photos show a nearby park, not the hospital. Still unverified: implant fees, English-speaking staff, real premises photos, Facebook page, WhatsApp/LINE, 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 Chinese and English website, the Guangzhou Municipal Health Commission institution search platform (cut-off 2026-06-30) and an Google Maps place page read on 2026-09-04. |
