Anesthésie générale & sédation profonde
Indique si la clinique documente des soins sous anesthésie générale ou sédation profonde / crépusculaire — la « dentisterie sous sommeil », où le patient dort et n'a conscience de rien (il ne sent, ne voit et n'entend pas l'intervention). La sédation consciente ordinaire, où le patient reste éveillé et réactif, ne compte pas ici. Information indicative, sans effet sur le score de transparence.
- ✗ Anesthésie générale / sédation profonde (dentisterie sous sommeil) — Aucune anesthésie générale ni sédation profonde documentée The practice sedation page, read on 2026-09-07, states in its own words that "these forms of sedation fall under the category of conscious sedation, as you will be relaxed or very drowsy but not asleep or unconscious". Methodology 1.4.0 excludes that level, so no qualifying sedation is documented. [s7]

| ✓ | Photos réelles de la clinique Confirmed on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08: the lead owner photograph is one of the practice's own surgeries on the seventh floor at 805 W Broadway — its chair and delivery unit, cabinetry and the city view from the window.

| ✓ | Adresse et carte publiées The location page publishes the street address with a static map image, and there is a matching Google place. [s4] [g1] | 2/2 |
Transparence des prix

Réputation et avis
19 / 20
Signaux d'avis publics. La note Google est ajustée avec un a priori bayésien (note 4,0, poids 25) afin qu'un 5,0 issu d'une poignée d'avis ne surclasse pas un 4,8 issu de centaines d'avis.
| ✓ | Note Google (ajustement bayésien) 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 — 311 five-star, 8 four-star, 2 three-star, 3 two-star and 14 one-star — sums to 338, matching the 338 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.772 reproduces the published 4.8. [g1] [gmpb] | 6/6 |
| ◐ | Volume d'avis Google Read live on 2026-09-08 from the place-page header, and the star histogram sums to the same figure. The card held 338 and the listing has not moved since. [g1] [gmpb] | 2.5/3 |
| ✓ | Fraîcheur des avis The newest review visible is three months old, which proves the within_3_months bucket and no better. Visible dates: 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4 and 5 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 |
| ✓ | La clinique répond aux avis 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 |
| ✓ | Absence de plaintes récurrentes Google's relevance ordering surfaces eight positive 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 17 of 338 = 5.0 %, and none of those seventeen 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 |
| ✓ | Absence de schémas d'avis suspects 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 (311/8/2/3/14) on a base of 338 — an ordinary distribution, not a wall. The visible dates run from three to five months, several accounts identify their writers as patients of fifteen or thirty years' standing, the treatments described differ, and the owner answers each individually. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Présence Facebook active [s6] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | Présence sur TripAdvisor 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. [enlighten-dental-vancouver-deepen] | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Autres plateformes d'avis Yelp publishes a business page for the practice at 805 West Broadway suite 701, read live on 2026-09-10; it carries two patient reviews, both held back by Yelp's recommendation filter. [enlighten-dental-vancouver-deepen-2] [enlighten-dental-vancouver-deepen-3] | 0.5/0.5 |
Infrastructure médicale
13.5 / 15
L'éventail des équipements et des services documentés publiquement. Cela mesure la disponibilité documentée, et non la qualité clinique.
| ✓ | Radiographie sur place Digital imaging is part of the published equipment list. [g1] [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | CBCT (imagerie 3D) The practice publishes CT imaging among its in-office technology, on its own site and in its own Google Business description. [g1] [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Implantologie Dental implants including metal-free zirconia. [s1] [g1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontie Invisalign. [s1] [g1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Chirurgie orale The clinic's own Google Business categories include oral surgeon and dental implants periodontist. [g1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Dentisterie pédiatrique The practice states its dentists teach children about oral health and that patients of all ages are treated in the one office. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✗ | Soins d'urgence No emergency or urgent-care service is published on the site, and the clinic's own Google Business categories do not include emergency dental service. [s1] [s3] | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Accueil de patients internationaux The practice page states that families travel to it from across the Americas and that it draws patients from the Pacific Northwest and other parts of North America. [s2] | 2/2 |
Communication et service

No evening close and no weekend opening on the clinic's own record, which agrees with its site. [s4] [gmpb] | 0/1.5 |
Visibilité IA et recherche
6 / 10
Indique si la clinique est repérable lorsque les patients effectuent des recherches — y compris via les assistants IA. Vérifié avec des requêtes fixes : "best dentist Canada", "English speaking dentist Canada", "dental implants Canada", "emergency dentist Canada", "Canada dental clinic for expats".
| ✗ | Mentionnée pour : best dentist Canada The clinic and its domain do not appear in the results of the canonical query. [sq1] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | Mentionnée pour : English speaking dentist Canada The clinic and its domain do not appear in the results of the canonical query, which returned at least three Vancouver, British Columbia results and is therefore on target. [sq2] | 0/1 |
| ✓ | Mentionnée pour : dental implants Canada enlightendental.ca ranks third in the results of the canonical query. [sq3] | 1/1 |
| ? | Mentionnée pour : emergency dentist Canada The canonical run of this query returned a page dominated by Vancouver, Washington: only one result belongs to Vancouver, British Columbia, so the SERP is off-target and absence from it is not evidence. Recorded as null rather than false. [sq4] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | Mentionnée pour : Canada dental clinic for expats The clinic and its domain do not appear in the results of the canonical query. [sq5] | 0/1 |
| ✓ | Données structurées sur le site web Two JSON-LD blocks including a Dentist object with address, coordinates and opening hours, plus FAQPage and BreadcrumbList. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Qualité de l'indexation Google The practice domain takes rank one and four further own pages (Vancouver office, doctor pages, about the practice) in the first twenty results of the name-quoted query (web search, 2026-09-07). [giq1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Pages de services dédiées Individual service pages, including one for dental implants. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |

| s7 | https://enlightendental.ca/services/sedation-dentistry/ | The practice sedation page, read on 2026-09-07, states in its own words that "these forms of sedation fall under the category of conscious sedation, as you will be relaxed or very drowsy but not asleep or unconscious". Methodology 1.4.0 excludes that level, so no qualifying sedation is documented. (The supports text of this source was missing from the card; it was written on 2026-09-10 from the finding the card itself records for it, and the page was not re-read on that date.) | 2026-09-07 |
| gmpb | https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/@49.2635562,-123.1222085,17z/da… | 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/@49.2635562,-123.1222085,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x548673c33bce186b:0xc35f75f60e5e19c7!8m2!3d49.2635562!4d-123.1222085?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 «Enlighten Dental», category Cosmetic dentist, at 805 W Broadway, Suite 701, Vancouver BC · +1 604-876-9228 · enlightendental.ca — the identifiers the card itself carries, so the place identifier resolves to this practice and not to a neighbour. | 2026-09-08 |
| enlighten-dental-vancouver-deepen | https://www.tripadvisor.ca/TypeAheadJson?action=API&query=Enlighten… | 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 |
| enlighten-dental-vancouver-deepen-2 | https://www.yelp.com/biz/enlighten-dental-vancouver | Yelp business page for Enlighten Dental, opened in a real browser on 2026-09-10.

| enlighten-dental-vancouver-deepen-3 | https://www.yelp.com/not_recommended_reviews/enlighten-dental-vanco… | Yelp's 'not currently recommended' page for the practice, read on 2026-09-10: two patient reviews dated 22 December 2024 and 18 November 2024, one naming an implant case and one a cleaning. Yelp states these are not counted towards the star rating. | 2026-09-10 |
Historique des modifications
| Date | Modification |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-10 | Checked by hand in a browser on 2026-09-10: TripAdvisor carries no listing for the practice; the Yelp business page opens in a real browser and carries two filtered patient 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 (311/8/2/3/14 = 338, weighted mean 4.772), 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 platform-presence and TripAdvisor fields were returned to unchecked, and the sedation level was corrected to a checked negative on the practice own words that its sedation "falls under the category of conscious sedation". |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection (automated): practice site read in full including the about, location, contact and a doctor page; Google place page read automatically; all five named dentists confirmed in the BCCOHP public register; the five canonical visibility queries taken from the AI-visibility 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. |
