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.

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 Live on 2026-09-07: HTTP 200 with the practice content in the body. [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed The team page names Dr. Taneshwar Chahal, Dr. Shahzadi Sarwat and Dr. Godbole as dentists, alongside the named assisting, hygiene and administration staff. [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed The implant page states that Dr. Chahal is a named Diplomate in implant dentistry; the team page gives the professional role of every named member of staff. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos The team page renders real staff photographs — the practice's own dentists in its branded scrubs, watermarked with its logo — and its Google record leads with an interior reception photograph. [s2] [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Service menu covering implants, general, emergency, hygiene, restorative, endodontic, sedation, cosmetic, surgical and orthodontic treatment. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Address, phone (403) 252-7731, e-mail info@haysborodentalcare.ca, an after-hours emergency line and full opening hours are published on the contact page. [s4] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version The site is published in English. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published Full street address with postcode plus an embedded map. [s4] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
7 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✓ | Prices or price ranges published The implant page publishes a standing six-step payment structure in Canadian dollars: diagnostic imaging with cone-beam scan and digital models 439.45, surgical guide 200.00 per implant, implant placement 1,295.00, abutment or implant exposure 0 to 350.00, and the final prosthesis from 1,699.00. Five priced line items on a permanent page, not a promotion. [s3] | 3/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed No hygiene or cleaning fee is published on the clinic site. [s1] [s4] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed No filling fee is published on the clinic site. [s1] | 0/2 |

Reputation & Reviews
19.5 / 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) 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 — 683 five-star, 26 four-star, 4 three-star, 1 two-star and 7 one-star — sums to 721, matching the 721 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.910 reproduces the published 4.9. The listing runs under a slightly longer name than the card, «Haysboro Dental Care & Implant Centre», at the card's own street address, telephone and website; it is the same practice under its full trading name. [gmp1] [gmpb] | 6/6 |
| ✓ | 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 721 and the listing has not moved since. [gmp1] [gmpb] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest review visible is one month old, which proves the within_3_months bucket and no better. Visible dates: 1, 1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 6 and 6 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 all 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 Google's relevance ordering surfaces eight five-star accounts and no critical text, so nothing readable establishes a theme and the criterion is false with the unread mass stated: the one- and two-star share is 8 of 721 = 1.1 %, and none of those eight accounts is surfaced. 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 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 (683/26/4/1/7) on a base of 721 — an ordinary distribution for a large practice, not a wall. The visible dates spread across six months, the accounts describe different work including implant courses researched across the city, and the owner answers all eight individually. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The clinic links its own Facebook page; the page was opened on 2026-09-07 and carries the practice name and city. [s1] [fb1] | 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. [haysboro-dental-care-calgary-deepen] | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Reviewed on RateMDs: practice page with patient ratings; Dr. Taneshwar Chahal has 15 reviews. [haysboro-dental-care-calgary-deepen-2] | 0.5/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
11.5 / 15
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray The implant schedule prices diagnostic imaging performed in house. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | CBCT (3D imaging) The implant page prices a cone-beam scan and states that scan, surgery and restoration are all done at one location. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology A dedicated implant section; the Google place record also carries a dental implants provider category. [s1] [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Braces and Invisalign pages. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery Oral surgery and wisdom teeth extraction pages. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ? | Pediatric dentistry The published service menu covers implants, general, emergency, hygiene, restorative, endodontic, sedation, cosmetic, surgical and orthodontic treatment but names no children or paediatric section, and the Google place record carries no paediatric category. Neither a positive nor a checked negative could be settled from the delivered pages; queued for a manual browser check with the place record. | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Emergency care Dental emergency page plus a published after-hours emergency line for active patients. [s1] [s4] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✗ | Works with international patients The clinic addresses a domestic Canadian patient base and documents no international-patient provision. [s1] [s4] | 0/2 |
Communication & Service
6.5 / 10
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
| ✗ | WhatsApp / LINE available No WhatsApp or LINE contact is published. [s4] | 0/2 |
| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | English spoken The practice operates and publishes in English. [s1] | 2.5/2.5 |
| ✓ | Pre-visit consultation possible The clinic offers a complimentary implant consultation and states that total costs are discussed at it. [s3] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Clear service explanations Each treatment has its own explanatory page. [s1] | 1/1 |
| ✓ | Convenient opening hours Confirmed on the clinic's own Google Business Profile, read in a browser on 2026-09-08: Monday, Wednesday and Friday 09:30–17:00, **Tuesday and Thursday 12:00–19:30, Saturday 09:30–17:00**, Sunday closed. Two evening sessions to 19:30 and a full Saturday are published clearly on the clinic's own record. [s4] [gmpb] | 1.5/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility
6 / 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".

They are individual portraits of the practice's own named dentists and staff, several in scrubs carrying the clinic's tooth logo, and each image is watermarked 'HAYSBORO DENTAL CARE'. They are the practice's own photography, not stock. The home page banners, by contrast, are a mountain landscape and a stock patient-in-chair image. | 2026-09-10 |

| gmpb | https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/@50.978647,-114.0839484,17z/dat… | The clinic’s Google Maps place page, opened in a real browser on 2026-09-08. 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/@50.978647,-114.0839484,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x5371711733fa5421:0x7f55da94dedcef09!8m2!3d50.978647!4d-114.0839484?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 «Haysboro Dental Care & Implant Centre», category Dentist, at 8421 Elbow Drive SW, Calgary AB · +1 403-252-7731 · haysborodentalcare.ca — the identifiers the card itself carries, so the place identifier resolves to this practice and not to a neighbour. | 2026-09-10 |
| haysboro-dental-care-calgary-deepen | https://www.tripadvisor.ca/TypeAheadJson?action=API&query=Haysboro+… | 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 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-01 | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: RateMDs practice page with patient ratings; the datum previously rested on the clinic's own site or a professional-association listing. |
| 2026-09-10 | Checked by hand in a browser on 2026-09-10: TripAdvisor carries no listing; realClinicPhotos moves null to true after the team page, whose delivered HTML carries no images, was rendered in a browser and found to carry the practice's own watermarked staff photographs. |
| 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 (683/26/4/1/7 = 721, weighted mean 4.910), 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 review count missing from the earlier run was read from the live place record (721), and the paediatric and TripAdvisor fields gained the reason they are unchecked. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection (no browser): clinic site read page by page, including the standing implant price schedule that gives this card its price-transparency evidence; the live Google place record read through the automated map endpoint for rating, categories and pin coordinates, which also showed the longer listing name; all three named dentists matched in the College of Dental Surgeons of Alberta public register by unique name, the register publishing no address for any of them; a name query used for indexing quality and independent listings; the four canonical visibility queries taken from the AI-visibility pass. Premises photography, review count, recency and the complaint and manipulation readings are left null and queued for a manual browser check. |
