Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-13 | Visibility re-checked on 2026-10-13 with the five canonical Santiago queries, read once for every clinic of the Santiago list; AI Overviews, local results and the first page of web results all counted. The clinic appears in 0 of the five. The query for an emergency dentist was read at night, when most clinics are closed, and its earlier reading is kept for this clinic. |
| 2026-10-01 | Review platforms re-checked: no reviewable profile on WhatClinic or Doctoralia, and Dental Departures lists no clinics in Chile, so "reviewed on other platforms" changed from yes to no. |
| 2026-09-29 | Checked TripAdvisor's own search and the clinic's website for a TripAdvisor profile: none found on either channel. |
| 2026-09-17 | Search visibility checked on 2026-09-17 for the five standard patient searches: the clinic was named for "Santiago dental clinic for expats"; not present for "best dentist Santiago", "English speaking dentist Santiago", "dental implants Santiago" and "emergency dentist Santiago". |
| 2026-09-17 | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (services and contact pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: Google rating steady at 4.5 with review count up to 36; implants, aligners, whitening, veneers and crowns as the documented service list; no oral surgery, pediatric or emergency service on that list; no structured data on the site. Still unverified: CBCT, English-speaking staff, an online pre-visit consultation tool and TripAdvisor presence remain unverified. |
| 2026-08-26 | License verification 2026-08-26: RNPI dentist registry unreachable (connection refused, re-confirmed via fetch and live browser); institutional accreditation registry searched for 'Smileboost' with no match but does not cover ordinary licensed clinics. All entries null. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website, address, phone unchanged; Google review count increased from 22 to 35 (rating unchanged at 4.5). |
