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
10.5 / 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) As of 2026-09-25: 6 of 8 reviews five-star, one one-star [modern-dental-care-portlouis-deepen] | 3/6 |

| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner replied to all three visible reviews - but the reviews themselves are 3, 4 and 7 years old, so this evidences a practice that answered reviews historically, not that it answers them now. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No repeated complaint theme appears in the visible sample. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Histogram shape, spread of wording and dates, and reviewer-account variety show no sign of manipulation. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence [s1] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing; the website linked from its Google profile is offline [modern-dental-care-portlouis-deepen-2] [modern-dental-care-portlouis-deepen-3] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms The Mauritius Life listing carries no reviews ("No reviews yet — be the first!", re-read 2026-09-04); no other review platform lists this branch. [m1] | 0/0.5 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-30 | Read the group's Instagram in full on 2026-09-30 (every post of the past 12 months), alongside its Facebook page and the branch's Google listing: none publishes a price or names a dentist. |
| 2026-09-30 | Re-read on 2026-09-30 on the group's Facebook page (About and the posts of the past year) and the branch's Google listing: recorded the treatment list the group publishes and no English website version, structured data or service pages, as the group's website still returns a hosting error; the branch's phone and address now rest on these channels. |
| 2026-09-29 | Read the group's shared Facebook page (its About lists this branch's address); a WhatsApp contact option is offered. No branch-specific hours, prices or equipment details found there. |
| 2026-09-29 | Checked TripAdvisor's own search for a profile: none found. The website linked from the clinic's Google Business Profile (moderndentalcaremru.com) is offline. |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the branch's Google listing, newest-first reviews included (the group's corporate website is still a dead-hosting page; its Facebook page is not readable past the title by automated fetch). Recorded: a photo of the branch's own treatment room; English-language owner replies; newest review from August 2024; Google 4.4 from 8 reviews. Still unverified: prices, service list, equipment, opening hours and TripAdvisor presence. |
| 2026-09-06 | Checked by hand in a browser: Google Maps place page read live for rating, review count, star histogram, review recency, owner replies, complaint and manipulation reading and pin coordinates; clinic Facebook pages opened where needed; the five canonical visibility queries re-run as browser SERPs. |
| 2026-09-04 | Adversarial verification pass: every cited URL re-opened on 2026-09-04. Two infrastructure credits withdrawn as directory boilerplate identical across every Mauritius Life dentist listing; the review-platform credit withdrawn (that listing has no reviews). |
| 2026-09-04 | Initial data collection for the Mauritius Dental Transparency & Trust Index: corporate website found dead (hosting error on every page tried); branch address confirmed via directory, Facebook content and Google Maps live page pending browser follow-up. |
