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.
- ✗ General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — No general anaesthesia or deep sedation documented IV sedation offered but explicitly conscious sedation; patient stays awake and responsive. [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen-8]

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
15 / 20
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 Own website still lists team by category only (existing redFlag). Doctify names one specialist, 'Dr Peter Sheridan', not shown on the clinic's own site; an AHPRA name search for this individual found no matching registered Dental Practitioner, so this name is reported as unconfirmed, not corroborated. [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen-7] [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Dentist specializations listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published [s1] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
0 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
Reputation & Reviews
15 / 20
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) Independently verified via Google Maps 2026-08-26 - supersedes the prior self-reported 5.0 (19 reviews) sourced only from the clinic's own site. [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Independently verified via Google Maps 2026-08-26 - supersedes the prior self-reported figure of 19. [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Newest Google review is dated 2026-09-17 (listing read 2026-09-26). [sydney-dental-surgeons-gbp-2026-09-26] | 3/3 |
| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews None of the 10 reviews read (dated 2025-12-17 to 2026-09-17) carries an owner reply on Google. [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen-10] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints Only 1 of the 59 Google ratings is 1–2★ (1.7 %), and 1 of the five lowest-rated reviews read scores 3★ or below, too few to repeat one complaint three times (1★ 1 / 2★ 0 / 3★ 0 / 4★ 0 / 5★ 58). [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen-10] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns No burst and no templated texts: the 10 reviews read (dated 2025-12-17 to 2026-09-17) fall on 9 different days, at most 2 five-star reviews fall within any 3 days, and no two open with the same wording. [sydney-dental-surgeons-deepen-10] | 2/2 |
