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
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed Staff page names Olof Ekdahl and Karzan Amin as "Leg. Tandläkare" (licensed dentists), among a larger named team. [s7] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed Ekdahl: orthodontics, aesthetic dentistry, general surgery, root canals, Bioclear-certified; Amin: surgery, implants, root canals, orthodontics. [s7] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos The clinic's own Google Business Profile carries an owner-published photo set showing the team in the practice's branded uniforms and its equipment. Judged visually on 2026-09-08. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | English website version No /en/ path or English content found; site is Swedish-only. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published [s1] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published Only a time-limited new-patient offer was found ("startpaket" for 795 kr, regular price 1,668 kr, covering X-ray, exam and cleaning) - a promotional bundle, not a standing price list or per-treatment range, so it does not count under the wave's price-transparency rule. [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Crown price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Consultation price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | X-ray / imaging price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
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) Confirmed on the live place page 2026-09-08. Star histogram: 176 five-star, 6 four-star, 0 three-star, 1 two-star, 6 one-star; the buckets sum to 189, exactly the header count, and the weighted mean 4.825 reproduces the published 4.8. [gmapv] [gmpb] | 6/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read from the place-page header 2026-09-08 - the count the worklist asked for. It also settles the widget question: the third-party review widget embedded on the clinic's own site shows 126 reviews and a five-star badge, while the live listing this clinic's Business Profile holds reads 4.8 on 189. The widget is not a mirror of the place page and its count is not googleReviewCount. [gmpb] | 2/3 |
| ◐ | Review recency The newest visible review is 7 months old, which proves the within-a-year bucket and no better. Sample: the 8 reviews the place page's Reviews tab renders in Google's own Most-relevant order; the Newest sort does not open to the extension. [gmpb] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner has replied to all 8 visible reviews. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No negative review surfaced in the visible sample and the histogram's negative mass is small - 7 of 189 = 3.7 per cent. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Dates spread across nine years, varied reviewers, no burst. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence | 0/1 |
| ? | TripAdvisor presence | 0/0.5 |
| ? | Other review platforms | 0/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray X-ray included in the clinic's own new-patient package description. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ? | CBCT (3D imaging) | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology [s7] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | Orthodontics Corrected by the verifier. The two named dentists list tandreglering among their skills on the shared staff page, but the Vasagatan branch page states in the clinic's own words that aesthetic dentistry and orthodontics are booked at the Kungsportsavenyen clinic; this card covers Vasagatan. A shared roster is not a branch service list. [s9] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery "Allmän kirurgi" (general surgery) listed for Olof Ekdahl. [s7] | 2/2 |
| ? | Pediatric dentistry | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Emergency care Dedicated emergency-care page: the clinic states it aims to offer an acute appointment within 24 hours and to answer within an hour, with acute slots on weekdays 07:00-19:00 and Saturdays 08:00-12:00. [s10] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Works with international patients Both named dentists are stated to speak English (and German). [s7] | 2/2 |
Communication & Service
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
AI & Search Visibility
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Sweden", "English speaking dentist Sweden", "dental implants Sweden", "emergency dentist Sweden", "Sweden dental clinic for expats".

| ? | Mentioned for: Sweden dental clinic for expats The "dental clinic for expats" query was run only for each country's first research city (Stockholm) in the wave-5 AV pass; not run for Gothenburg. | 0/1 |

| ✓ | Dedicated service pages Dedicated page found for orthodontics (tandreglering) linked from the homepage. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-08 | Browser reputation pass (I-3): live Google place page opened; the review count withdrawn by the verifier is restored from the place page itself as 189 (not the widget's 126), star histogram read and reconciled, recency, owner replies, complaint reading, manipulation check and owner photos recorded. |
| 2026-09-07 | Verification pass (D-sweden): rating 4.8 read from the live Google place preview; the review count taken from the clinic's own embedded widget was withdrawn to null because the same widget contradicts the live listing's rating; the display name now carries the branch, since the practice runs two Gothenburg locations and Google itself qualifies the listing; emergency care and evening/Saturday hours documented from the clinic's own pages; orthodontics corrected to a verified negative for this address on the clinic's own statement that it is booked at the sister clinic. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection: clinic website (home, staff pages), including its own embedded Google-reviews widget for review count. Numeric rating, recency, replies and complaint patterns left null pending a browser place-page visit. |
