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.

| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | TripAdvisor presence checked on 2026-10-05: no listing found for this clinic. |
| 2026-10-02 | Presence on review platforms checked on 2026-10-02: no profile on ZorgkaartNederland, WhatClinic or Trustpilot. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-18). |
| 2026-09-17 | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (tariffs, team and treatment pages) and its Google listing. Corrected: the tariffs page links a downloadable national tariff list, hosted on the clinic's own site, that prices cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants, consultations and X-rays. Recorded: X-rays taken for treatment planning, no implants offered, dedicated pages per treatment, a Facebook link, and consistent English-language communication in reviews despite no working English site. Google rating 4.3 from 57 reviews, owner replies to both praise and criticism; the two readable low-rated reviews raise different issues against a 16% share of one- and two-star ratings, so whether complaints recur is left unresolved; no signs of review manipulation. Still unverified: TripAdvisor and other review-platform presence. |
| 2026-08-27 | Initial research: identified via iamexpat.nl Netherlands dentist directory during national (all-NL) index expansion. Address/phone/services confirmed on clinic website; Google rating confirmed via Google Maps. |
