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.

Three dentists are published by name, the site runs in French and English, and the clinic states it serves patients in six languages.

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
20 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website Read live on 2026-09-07 in both language versions: team, services, clinic and contact pages. [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed Dr. Mojgan Kazemian, Dr. Mathilde Salodini and Dr. Pierre-Olivier Ouellet, each with a biography. [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed Post-graduate training is stated for each dentist, including implantology fellowships for Dr. Kazemian and surgery, endodontics and CEREC work for Dr. Ouellet. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos Newly settled in a browser on 2026-09-08. The place page's lead owner photograph is the practice's own reception on the ninth floor at 300 Léo-Pariseau: its curved white-marble desk under the clinic's own gold lettering, with the tower windows behind it. Premises and signage together, so the criterion is met from a channel the clinic controls — the site gallery the open question queued did not have to be opened. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Sixteen services, each with its own page, grouped as cosmetic, prevention, prosthodontic, surgery and technology. [s3] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Phone, street address with suite number and an e-mail address published site-wide. [s1] [s4] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version A complete English version of the site at /en/. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published Address on the contact page with an embedded map, a matching Google place, and an entry in the Quebec ministry Repertoire des ressources en sante et services sociaux publishing the same suite address and telephone (read 2026-09-07). [s4] [g1] [gov1] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
0 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published No figure for any treatment anywhere on the site; both language versions read in full on 2026-09-07. [s1] [s3] [s4] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed [s3] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed [s3] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Crown price listed [s3] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed [s3] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Consultation price listed [s3] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | X-ray / imaging price listed [s3] | 0/2 |
Reputation & Reviews
15 / 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) Read live on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08. Unchanged from the automated reading of 2026-09-07. The star histogram — 178 five-star, 4 four-star, 5 three-star, 4 two-star and 17 one-star — sums to 208, matching the 208 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.548 reproduces the published 4.5. [g1] [gmpb] | 4/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-08 from the place-page header, and the star histogram sums to the same figure. The card held 208 and the listing has not moved since. [g1] [gmpb] | 2.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest review visible is one month old, which proves the within_3_months bucket and no better. Visible dates: 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5 and 7 months. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner answers two of the eight of the reviews visible on the place page on 2026-09-08. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ? | No recurring complaints Of 210 Google reviews, 22 are one- or two-star (10 %), but the lowest-rated read (2024-2026) show no common theme (a fallen cap, tooth-pain care, lateness handling, insurance acceptance and a two-week toothache), so the criterion is left unassessed (read 2026-10-02). | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Judged on the histogram shape, the spread of dates, the variety of reviewers and the wording, on 2026-09-08. The histogram fills every bucket (178/4/5/4/17) on a base of 208 — the ordinary shape of a busy downtown practice. The visible dates spread across seven months, the accounts run from one line to several paragraphs in two languages, several identify their writers as patients of seven years or more, and the owner answers only two of the eight. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The site links the clinic Facebook page. [s1] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence TripAdvisor's own search index was queried in a real browser on 2026-09-10, under the clinic name and again with the city appended; it carries no listing for this practice. [clinique-dentaire-la-cite-montreal-deepen] | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Yelp publishes a business page for the practice at 300 rue Leo-Pariseau suite 920, read live on 2026-09-10: 3.5 out of 5 from 11 reviews, well below the Google figure on this card. [clinique-dentaire-la-cite-montreal-deepen-2] | 0.5/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
11 / 15
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray Digital radiography is a published service. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | CBCT (3D imaging) The technology block names CEREC 3D and digital radiography; the clinic's own Google description adds iTero, but no cone-beam CT is claimed. [s3] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology Implantology, implant prostheses and implant-supported restorations each have a page. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Invisalign. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery Wisdom teeth and grafts, plus minor oral surgery in the clinic's own Google description. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Pediatric dentistry Pediatric dentist is one of the categories the clinic itself publishes on its Google Business profile. [g1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Emergency care The clinic's own Google Business description names dental emergencies among its services. [g1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✗ | Works with international patients The clinic publishes the six languages it serves patients in but nothing about international patients, foreign insurance or paperwork. [s1] [s4] | 0/2 |
Communication & Service
5 / 10
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
| ✗ | WhatsApp / LINE available [s1] [s4] | 0/2 |
| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | English spoken A full English site and English published among the six languages of service; the Quebec ministry resource directory independently records that services are offered in French, English, Arabic, Spanish, Hebrew, Persian and Romanian. [s1] [s2] [gov1] | 2.5/2.5 |
| ✓ | Pre-visit consultation possible Contact form and an online appointment booking page. [s4] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Clear service explanations Each of the sixteen services has its own explanatory page. [s3] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | Convenient opening hours Confirmed as a checked negative on the clinic's own Google Business Profile, read in a browser on 2026-09-08: Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 08:00–17:00, Wednesday 07:00–17:00, Friday 08:00–16:00, Saturday and Sunday closed. An early Wednesday start is not evening surgery and no weekend opening is published on either of the clinic's channels. [s1] [s4] [gmpb] | 0/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility
5 / 10
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Canada", "English speaking dentist Canada", "dental implants Canada", "emergency dentist Canada", "Canada dental clinic for expats".
| ✗ | Mentioned for: best dentist Canada The clinic and its domain do not appear in the results of the canonical query. [sq1] | 0/1 |

| ? | Mentioned for: Canada dental clinic for expats The expat query was not run for Montreal in the AI-visibility pass (it was run for one research city per country only), so the field is unchecked rather than checked-and-absent. | 0/1 |
| ✓ | Structured data on website JSON-LD with WebPage, BreadcrumbList, WebSite and SearchAction objects. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Google indexing quality The clinic domain takes rank one and five further own pages (services, team, clinic, contact) in the first twenty results of the name-quoted query (web search, 2026-09-07). [giq1] | 2/2 |

The supports text of this source was missing from the card; it was restored on 2026-09-10 from what cites it, and the page itself was not re-read on that date. | 2026-09-07 |

The Reviews tab (this URL) gives the headline rating, the review-count header, the five star-histogram buckets read whole from their accessibility labels, and the eight most-relevant reviews with their star values, dates, text and owner replies; the sibling Overview URL https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/@45.5113157,-73.5767359,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x4cc91a36637dbe97:0x9f73e81feb02a12!8m2!3d45.5113157!4d-73.5767359?hl=en gives the listing name, address, telephone, website, business category, the full published opening week and the lead owner photograph. The listing opens as «Clinique Dentaire La Cité», category Dentist, at 300 rue Léo-Pariseau, bureau 920, in Place du Parc, Montréal QC · +1 514-288-8531 · cliniquedentairelacite.com — the identifiers the card itself carries, so the place identifier resolves to this practice and not to a neighbour. | 2026-09-08 |
| clinique-dentaire-la-cite-montreal-deepen | https://www.tripadvisor.ca/TypeAheadJson?action=API&query=Clinique+… | TripAdvisor's own type-ahead search endpoint, the one its search box calls, opened directly in a real browser on 2026-09-10. Queried under the clinic name alone and again with the city appended, it returns no listing for this practice; the query broadens to dental-clinic listings in other countries instead. A control query for an existing dental-clinic listing (Old Igarashi Dental Clinic, Shizuoka) returns that listing at rank 1, so the method does surface dental clinics when they are in the index. The /Search results page itself never resolves past its loading spinner for a signed-out session, which is why the search endpoint is cited. | 2026-09-10 |
| clinique-dentaire-la-cite-montreal-deepen-2 | https://www.yelp.com/biz/clinique-dentaire-la-cit%C3%A9-montr%C3%A9… | Yelp business page for Clinique Dentaire la Cite, opened in a real browser on 2026-09-10 — the automated client had been refused. The listing is unclaimed and carries the card's own address, 300 Rue Leo Pariseau, Suite 920, Montreal QC H2X 4B3. Rating 3.5 from 11 reviews, dated between February 2010 and September 2025, plus two further reviews held back by Yelp's filter. The reviews name dentists of this practice. | 2026-09-10 |
Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Reputation check 2026-10-02 on the clinic's Google listing (5 reviews read): nothing settled; recurring complaints left unassessed. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints now unverified: 1–2★ ratings are 21 of 208 and the low reviews themselves were not read. |
| 2026-09-10 | Checked by hand in a browser on 2026-09-10: TripAdvisor carries no listing; the Yelp business page, refused to an automated client, opens in a real browser at the practice's own suite address with 3.5 from 11 reviews, so onOtherPlatforms moves null to true. |
| 2026-09-08 | Checked by hand in a browser: the clinic’s Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read on both its Reviews and Overview tabs. Recorded from it: the rating re-verified against the star histogram, the review count, the histogram itself (178/4/5/4/17 = 208, weighted mean 4.548), review recency, the owner-reply state, the complaint reading and the manipulation reading from the eight most-relevant reviews, the lead owner photograph and the full published opening week. Fields this pass did not measure are untouched. |
| 2026-09-07 | Adversarial verification (no browser): all four mandatory sweeps run on the card; every cited URL re-fetched for liveness; the Google rating and coordinates re-read independently from the live place record and confirmed; the licensing block re-run against the province statutory register; TripAdvisor probed directly and found unreadable to an automated client. On this card, the Quebec ministry resource directory entry for the clinic was added as an independent institutional source for the address and the languages of service, and the platform-presence and TripAdvisor fields were returned to unchecked. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection (automated): clinic site read in full in the English version including team, services and contact pages; Google place page read automatically; all three named dentists confirmed by permit number in the Ordre des dentistes du Québec public register through its anonymous member API; four canonical visibility queries taken from the AI-visibility pass (the expat query was not run for Montreal in that pass); index quality probed with a name-quoted search query. Reputation fields other than the rating and the count are left for a manual browser check. |
