Changelog
Every data update, correction, and methodology change is logged here and in each clinic's own change history. The rating updates whenever the underlying public data changes.
| Date | Subject | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-16 | Methodology v1.4.2 | Clarified when dentist names count: a name published by the clinic counts when it lets a patient find the dentist in a professional register; a first name alone is not enough, nor is a first name with a patronymic where surnames are in use. Applied the same day to the clinics whose own channels name their dentists by first name only, which lose the points for dentist names. No other score changes. |
| 2026-10-07 | Methodology v1.4.1 | Added a limit on re-checks made at a clinic's request: the next request from the same clinic about its own page is taken up no sooner than one month after the last re-check made at its request, which is dated in the clinic's change history; requests sent earlier are not processed. Corrections reported by anyone else are handled as before. No score changes. |
| 2026-10-05 | Clínica Dental Rosel (Rosel Quijano) | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): the owner replies to reviews. |
| 2026-10-05 | Dentalia Altabrisa | onOtherPlatforms true → false: the Doctoralia clinic page it rested on is bare, with nothing from the clinic and no reviews. No profile found on WhatClinic, Dental Departures or Trustpilot. |
| 2026-10-05 | GIO Clinic (Grupo Interdisciplinario Odontológico) | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): no sign of manipulated reviews. |
| 2026-10-05 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): no repeated complaint; no sign of manipulated reviews. |
| 2026-10-05 | Yucatan Dental (Dra. Claudia) | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): the owner replies to reviews. |
| 2026-10-02 | Grupo Dental ARBO | Read the clinic's own website (homepage, robots.txt, sitemap and service pages) for site structure: no business structured data. |
| 2026-10-01 | Dentaly Clínica Dental | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: no profile on Doctoralia, WhatClinic or Dental Departures; pages that only repeat its Google rating are no longer counted; "reviewed on other platforms" changed from yes to no. |
| 2026-10-01 | Dr. Pedro Durán Smile Designer | Read the dentist's Facebook page in full for the past year and his Google listing on 2026-10-01: his channels describe aesthetic and restorative work only, with no imaging, surgery, children's or emergency care. |
| 2026-10-01 | Smart Smile Clínica Dental | Reviews on other platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Doctoralia, Bookimed or Trustpilot; the dentist directory page cited earlier only repeated the clinic's Google rating, so this is now marked no. |
| 2026-10-01 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Read the clinic's Google listing and reviews and its Facebook page on 2026-10-01: children's care is documented; no imaging equipment or emergency care is. |
| 2026-10-01 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: no confirmed profile on Doctoralia, WhatClinic or Dental Departures, and pages that only repeat its Google rating are no longer counted; "reviewed on other platforms" changed from yes to unconfirmed. |
| 2026-10-01 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Checked on 2026-10-01: no profile on WhatClinic or Dental Departures and no real Doctoralia profile, so the clinic is not present on other review platforms. |
| 2026-09-30 | CODY - Central Odontológica de Yucatán | Re-read the clinic's website and Google listing on 2026-09-30: real clinic photos recorded from the website's about page, which shows the clinic building with its sign and its team. |
| 2026-09-30 | Dr. Pedro Durán Smile Designer | Re-read the dentist's Facebook page (contact section, services tab and a year of posts), his Instagram profile and his Google listing on 2026-09-30: service list corrected to not published, as none of them lists the treatments offered; address corrected to Calle 16 #501C, Residencial San Antonio Cucul, as given on the Facebook page and the Google listing (the earlier values came from a directory profile). |
| 2026-09-30 | GIO Clinic (Grupo Interdisciplinario Odontológico) | Re-read the clinic's website, its Instagram profile and its Google listing on 2026-09-30: published prices corrected to not published, as its own channels show no price list beyond a free first consultation (the earlier value rested on a directory profile); the clinic description now follows its own channels, which present an aligner-focused practice. |
| 2026-09-30 | Merida Smiles by Ideal Dental (Ideal Dental Center) | Re-read the clinic network's website and the Mérida Google listing on 2026-09-30: the clinic description now follows its own channels; zygomatic implants and sedation, listed only by a directory, were removed from it. |
| 2026-09-30 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Re-read the clinic's Facebook page (contact and About sections, intro and posts) and its Google listing on 2026-09-30: address corrected to Calle 43 No. 510, Sol Campestre, as both give it (the earlier address came from a directory profile); the clinic description now follows its own channels. |
| 2026-09-30 | Yucatan Dental (Dra. Claudia) | Re-read the clinic's website and Google listing on 2026-09-30: real clinic photos recorded from the website, which shows the clinic's entrance and surgery; the clinic description now follows its own channels, which present Dr. Jesús Sánchez Ruz as the practice's lead dentist. |
| 2026-09-29 | Clínica Dental Rosel (Rosel Quijano) | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-21). |
| 2026-09-29 | Clínica Dental Rosel (Rosel Quijano) | Found the clinic's own Facebook page under its founder's name (the website links only a lab partner's page). Recorded: present on Facebook. |
| 2026-09-29 | CODY - Central Odontológica de Yucatán | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-10). |
| 2026-09-29 | Dr. Pedro Durán Smile Designer | Corrected 2026-09-29: published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-29 | Dr. Pedro Durán Smile Designer | Read the clinic's Facebook page, its only channel besides Google: about section, photo library and recent posts with comments. Recorded: the dentist's own photo appears on the page; a WhatsApp contact button is offered; no price is published — in a comment reply the dentist tells patients to message him for the cost; booking is by direct message only, with no choice of service or time. Equipment, surgery, pediatric and emergency care, and international-patient documentation remain unverified: the page does not address them. |
| 2026-09-29 | GIO Clinic (Grupo Interdisciplinario Odontológico) | Re-read the clinic's own website and public listings on 2026-09-29. Recorded: realClinicPhotos. |
| 2026-09-29 | Merida Smiles by Ideal Dental (Ideal Dental Center) | Re-read the clinic's own website and public listings on 2026-09-29. Not found on the checked pages: offersEmergency. |

| 2026-09-29 | Smart Smile Clínica Dental | Re-read the clinic's website on 2026-09-29. Corrected: dentistNamesListed - the clinic's own site names no dentist (its team page holds only template placeholders); the earlier value rested on patient reviews, which are not the clinic naming its dentists. |
| 2026-09-29 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-07-29). |
| 2026-09-29 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Read the clinic's Facebook page — the page its own Google listing gives as its website: about section, the full photo library and posts. Recorded: two named dentists; genuine photos of the treatment rooms, reception and a practitioner at work; a free diagnosis/quote offered, but no price figure for any specific procedure; a WhatsApp contact option; and no online booking with a service or time choice. Infrastructure and English-language service remain unverified: the page does not address them. |
| 2026-09-29 | Whiteline Clínica Dental | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-24). |
| 2026-09-29 | Yucatan Dental (Dra. Claudia) | Checked the site's WhatsApp widget on the homepage itself, not only the cart and account pages where it was first noticed. Recorded: the widget is visible on the main pages too and opens a chat to the clinic's own WhatsApp number. |
| 2026-09-29 | Yucatan Dental Clinic | Found the clinic's Facebook page under its own name, with the same street, neighbourhood and specialty. Recorded: present on Facebook. |
| 2026-09-25 | Clínica Dental Rosel (Rosel Quijano) | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all 141 pages in its Spanish and English sitemaps) and its Google listing.

Still unverified: whether the clinic responds to reviews and whether English is spoken. |
| 2026-09-25 | CODY - Central Odontológica de Yucatán | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's bilingual website (all 17 pages: services, specialists, doctor bios and contact) and its Google listing.

| 2026-09-25 | Dentalia Altabrisa | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the national chain's website (branch page, treatments, implants, price articles, FAQ and booking help) and the branch's Google listing.

Google rating 3.9 from 151 reviews; several independent reviews describe appointments not honoured, and the branch replies to them. Still unverified: international-patient documentation and CBCT. |
| 2026-09-25 | Dentaly Clínica Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all pages in its sitemap, including pricing, restorative, cleaning and pediatric pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: the lead dentist's name, cleaning and filling prices, a deep-cleaning price with digital X-rays included, no crown price, digital X-rays, service to foreign dental-tourism patients, a Facebook link, and a Google rating of 4.9 from 601 reviews with owner replies to every negative review read. Still unverified: CBCT and whether English is spoken. |
| 2026-09-25 | Dr. Pedro Durán Smile Designer | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic has no website; checked its Google Business Profile. Recorded: phone consistent with the stored card, Saturday hours, and a Google rating of 4.9 from 55 reviews with a single low review and no signs of manipulation. The Google profile lists no prices, and there is no clinic website to publish them. Still unverified: the clinic's Instagram and Facebook pages. |
| 2026-09-25 | GIO Clinic (Grupo Interdisciplinario Odontológico) | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's small website (home and appointments pages) and its Google listing.

Recorded: no prices published for any procedure, digital X-ray, orthodontics, implant surgery, pediatric dentistry, weekend emergency-only hours, a Facebook link, and a Google rating of 4.5 from 23 reviews with owner replies, including two independent reviews alleging the clinic prioritizes money over patient care. The site's appointment button currently leads to a missing page. Still unverified: whether the clinic has CBCT imaging (only an ambiguous "3D scanner" is mentioned). |
| 2026-09-25 | Merida Smiles by Ideal Dental (Ideal Dental Center) | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's network website (branch page, price list, FAQ, treatments and booking form) and its Google listing.

Recorded: phone consistent with the stored card, evening and Saturday hours, owner replies to negative reviews, a Facebook page, and a Google rating of 4.8 from 182 reviews. Corrected: the clinic has no website of its own; the link stored earlier was a directory profile, and its Google listing points to its Facebook page.

| 2026-09-10 | Peniche Implantology (Dr. Ricardo Peniche) | Name-verification pass 2026-09-10: 'Dr. Ricardo Peniche' (Ricardo Peniche Rodriguez) confirmed via own-site content, independent of previously-cited aggregator (Dental Departures). |
| 2026-09-10 | Whiteline Clínica Dental | Name-verification pass 2026-09-10: 'Dr. Guillermo Trujillo' and 'Dr. Eduardo' (Eduardo Trujillo) confirmed via own-site homepage/case-study content, independent of previously-cited aggregator (Dentavacation). |
| 2026-09-10 | Yucatan Dental (Dra. Claudia) | Name-verification pass 2026-09-10: 'Dra. Claudia' (Claudia C. Flota Gallareta) confirmed via own-site content, independent of previously-cited aggregator (Yelp). |
| 2026-09-07 | Methodology v1.4.0 | Narrowed the "Opaque or bait pricing" red flag to what its published definition describes. Until now the flag was applied automatically to every clinic that does not publish a price list — a harsher statement than the evidence supports, since the catalogue defines the flag as complaints about final bills materially exceeding quoted prices, or advertised prices that are not honoured. Not publishing prices is already scored: it costs the clinic points in the price transparency category, and it is not, on its own, evidence of bait pricing. The automatic rule is removed, so the flag and its 2-point penalty come off about 1,300 clinic pages across the index; no clinic gains a flag, and no weight, severity or other scoring rule changed. The flag can still be recorded against a clinic by hand with cited sources, and about 210 clinics carry such an entry today; we are reviewing those entries in a follow-up pass, because some of them were also written for nothing more than an unpublished price list. |
| 2026-09-03 | Methodology v1.3.1 | Clarified that the publication criteria refer to the clinic’s own channels: a service list, the names of the dentists and a price list count when the clinic itself publishes them (its website, its social profiles or its own Google Business profile) — registers, directories and review sites do not, and a time-limited promotional offer is not a price list. Added a third state for a dentist’s licence, "checked, not found in the public register": a dentist we searched for in the national register and did not find is now recorded as checked-but-unverified with the date of the check, instead of being shown either as "not checked yet" or as the "not published" red flag. Neither change alters any weight or penalty; the red-flag rule still fires only on a verified negative. Also corrected the wording of the penalty note under the ranking table, which rendered as "20−" in right-to-left dictionaries. |
| 2026-08-26 | Clínica Dental Rosel (Rosel Quijano) | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; captured first Google rating (4.7, 162 reviews), phone, and WhatsApp link; added 2 new independent sources (SmileJet 4.7/104, Doctoralia 615 opinions) confirming multi-platform reputation; visibility scout 5 queries (1 true, for 'dental implants Merida'); cited uncited own-site source s2 (confirmed live, gives address/doctors/sedation detail) to addressAndMap; sedation research found explicit 'sedación consciente' (conscious sedation) - recorded false in the sedation file per the strict bar. |
| 2026-08-26 | Clínica Dental Rosel (Rosel Quijano) | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Offers 'sedación consciente' (conscious sedation) explicitly labeled as such - patient stays conscious, not general anesthesia/deep sedation |
| 2026-08-26 | CODY - Central Odontológica de Yucatán | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked contacts/Maps; found a live official website (codyscp.com, previously unset) which lists 'sedación, anestesia local' among services and a WhatsApp line; Google review count rose to 59 from 51, rating steady at 4.6; added WhatClinic (4.8/2) as new source; visibility scout 5 queries (0 true); uncited source s2 (buscodentista.com.mx) returned HTTP 403 (automated requests blocked) today, could not verify content - left untouched, not pruned. |
| 2026-08-26 | Dentalia Altabrisa | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; captured first Google rating (3.9, 138 reviews, notably lower than most other record on file clinics) and a toll-free phone (+52 800 003 3682); the clinic's own location page (uncited s2) instead lists a direct line 999 211 0274, noted rather than substituted; cited s2 (live, confirms Altabrisa shopping-center location/hours) to addressAndMap; visibility scout 5 queries (0 true); no qualifying new independent source found today. |
| 2026-08-26 | Dentaly Clínica Dental | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; Google review count grew to 599 from 557, rating steady at 4.9; added SmileJet (4.9/194) as new independent source; visibility scout 5 queries (2 true, 'prominent dentist' and 'emergency dentist'); cited uncited source s2 (trust.sistemia.mx, live, corroborates review-aggregator presence) to onOtherPlatforms - its own cached count (557) is now stale versus today's live Google figure (599), so it was not reused for the rating datum itself. |
| 2026-08-26 | Dr. Pedro Durán Smile Designer | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked contacts/Maps; captured first Google rating (5.0, 53 reviews) and phone (+52 999 547 9110) from a Google Business listing 'pedro duran smiledesigner' whose domain matches the stored practice name, but that listing's address (C. 16, San Antonio Cucul, 97113) differs from the stored address (Plaza Town Square, Col. San Ramón, 97138) - possible relocation; left the address field unchanged pending stronger confirmation since the listed website (pedroduransmiledesigner.com) fails to resolve (DNS error) and could not corroborate; pruned uncited source s2 (topdoctors.mx doctor page, HTTP 404 - dead, consistent with the existing licensing note that both TopDoctors pages for this clinic now 404); visibility scout 5 queries (0 true); no qualifying new independent source found today - this practice has no working own website to anchor further verification. |
| 2026-08-26 | GIO Clinic (Grupo Interdisciplinario Odontológico) | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; the clinic's Google Business Profile and current live website now present as 'GIO Alineadores Invisibles en Mérida' (GIO Invisible Aligners) rather than the stored 'GIO Clinic' name, but confirmed at the same address (Star Médica, Calle 26 199, Col. Altabrisa) - flagging as a likely rebrand/aligners-focused sub-brand, not a different business; captured first Google rating (5.0, 66 reviews, very active - most recent review ~4 days old), phone, and website; one review from ~10 months ago alleges being overcharged as a foreigner (isolated, within an otherwise 5.0-rated profile - noted, not added as a formal red flag); cited uncited source s2 (dentalmexico.com, live, itemized USD pricing) to addressAndMap and newly set pricesPublished=true from it; visibility scout 5 queries (0 true). |
| 2026-08-26 | Grupo Dental ARBO | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; captured first Google rating (4.5, 23 reviews) - the visible reviews shown are all 5-6 years old, suggesting low recent Google review activity worth flagging; visibility scout 5 queries (0 true); cited uncited source s2 (DentalDepartures, live, confirms Dr. Carolina Zozaya's English/French/Spanish fluency) to englishSpoken; no qualifying new independent source found today despite search effort. |
| 2026-08-26 | Merida Smiles by Ideal Dental (Ideal Dental Center) | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; corrected Google rating to 4.9 from 31 reviews (direct Google check) - materially lower than the previously recorded 5.0/124, which traced to a third-party aggregator; captured phone (+52 999 422 8839), independently corroborated by the exact same number in 2 separate Bing local-pack listings under 'Ideal Dental' / 'Dental Clinic and Implants - Medical Tourism' during the visibility scout; added WhatClinic (5.0/1) as new source; visibility scout 5 queries (3 true); cited uncited source s2 (DentalDepartures, live, confirms bilingual/ASL team, doctor names, and lists 'sedation dentistry' among services without depth detail) to englishSpoken/dentistNamesListed. |
| 2026-08-26 | Peniche Implantology (Dr. Ricardo Peniche) | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked contacts/Maps; captured first-ever Google rating (4.8, 19 reviews) and a live website - implantologiayucatan.com now 301-redirects to dentalimplantyucatan.com, the SAME domain used by the separate record on file entry 'Dental Implant Yucatán', and that site names Dr. Ricardo Peniche at the identical CMA address (Calle 54 365 interior 314); strong evidence the two record on file entries are now the same consolidated practice/web presence (flagged for site-owner review, not merged here); pruned uncited source s2 (dental-news.org, domain no longer resolves/DNS failure - dead); visibility scout 5 queries (0 true); no qualifying new independent source found today beyond the practice's own newly-identified website. |
| 2026-08-26 | Smart Smile Clínica Dental | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; found a live official website (smartsmile.mx, previously unset) and first Google rating (4.8, 17 reviews); reviews name lead dentist Dr. Ignacio Ávalos with ~20 years in practice; visibility scout 5 queries (0 true); no uncited sources existed to triage for this clinic (its single source, s1, is already cited); no qualifying new independent 3rd-party source found today beyond Google/own site. |
| 2026-08-26 | Soluciones Dentales Mérida | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; rating eased to 4.8 from 4.9 while review count rose to 181 from 160; captured phone (+52 999 200 6926); the Google Business listing's address (C. 43 510, Sol Campestre, 97113) differs from the stored address (Av. Correa Racho, 97130) - possible relocation or listing drift, left the address field unchanged pending stronger confirmation; added SmileJet (4.8/93) as new source; confirmed the stored DentalDepartures URL (s2) is live, newly setting hasWebsite=true; visibility scout 5 queries (0 true). |
| 2026-08-26 | Whiteline Clínica Dental | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; Google rating rose to 5.0 from 303 reviews (was 4.9/98), most recent reviews ~5 months old; added 2 new independent sources (WhatClinic 4.9/12, SmileJet 4.9/240) confirming multi-platform reputation; visibility scout 5 queries (3 true); cited uncited own-site source s2 to englishVersion/englishSpoken; s3 (Yelp) returned HTTP 403 (automated requests blocked) today, could not verify content - left untouched, not pruned. |
| 2026-08-26 | Yucatan Dental (Dra. Claudia) | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website/contacts/Maps; captured first Google rating (5.0, 40 reviews) from the Google Business listing at the exact stored address (Calle 53 518-B), though that listing is titled 'Dr. Jesús Sánchez Ruz. YUCATANDENTAL Original' with phone +52 999 910 0890 - differs from the stored 'Dra.

| 2026-08-25 | Methodology v1.3.0 | Corrected how the two licensing red flags are applied ("Clinic operating licence not published" and "Dentists / their licences not listed"). Previously they were applied whenever licensing data was absent from our records, which treated unchecked data as a negative finding — contrary to the methodology's own rule that unverified data is a fact about our coverage, not about the clinic. Both flags now apply only where we have verified that the information is not published. Manual licensing flags that rested on unverified data were removed from the affected clinics. No other scoring rules changed; most scores rise because the incorrect penalty is removed. |
