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 |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-07 | 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. |

| 2026-10-01 | City Oasis Dental | Read the whole clinic website and a year of its Facebook posts on 2026-10-01: no price list is published, but the site offers a free consultation, so the consultation criterion is now met. |
| 2026-10-01 | City Oasis Dental | Searched TripAdvisor on 2026-10-01 for the clinic by its name with and without the city: no TripAdvisor listing, so TripAdvisor presence is recorded as absent. |
| 2026-10-01 | Dental Emergency Services | Review platforms re-checked: no profile of the clinic on WhatClinic, RateMDs, Opencare or Trustpilot, so "reviewed on other platforms" changed from yes to no. |
| 2026-10-01 | Dental Emergency Services | Searched TripAdvisor on 2026-10-01 for the clinic by its name with and without the city: no TripAdvisor listing, so TripAdvisor presence is recorded as absent. |

| 2026-09-29 | Dentix24 Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: red flag "No dentists identified anywhere" removed: it contradicted the recorded finding that the clinic names its dentists. |

| 2026-09-29 | Walk In Family Dentistry | Corrected 2026-09-29: owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-28). |
| 2026-09-29 | Yonge Eglinton Dental | Corrected 2026-09-29: clinic responds to reviews now unverified: only 8 reviews were checked for owner replies. |
| 2026-09-17 | City Oasis Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's Google listing directly, and its website through an archived copy dated 2026-03-10, because the live site returned an automated-traffic block on every attempt today. From the archived copy: the named dentist's Invisalign certification and implant training at the Misch Implant Institute; digital, panoramic and 3D cone-beam imaging; implants, orthodontics, oral surgery and emergency care among the services, each service with its own page of descriptive text; a 30-minute Invisalign consultation and an appointment request offering a personalised assessment; a linked Facebook page and Dentist structured data. The Google listing confirms today that implants, oral and maxillofacial surgery and emergency dental service are the clinic's own listing categories, and publishes hours of Monday to Thursday 8:00-17:00 and Friday 9:00-13:30 with nothing in the evening or at the weekend. Google rating steady at 4.9, review count grew from 391 to 393; the owner replied to four of the five readable reviews, which show no shared complaint theme and no sign of manipulated activity. Still unverified while the site itself stays unreachable: whether prices are published, whether a messaging channel such as WhatsApp is offered, and whether the clinic has a TripAdvisor profile; the archived copy is six months old and the site should be re-read once it opens. |
| 2026-09-17 | City Oasis Dental | Read the clinic's live website on 2026-09-17 (earlier reading relied on an archived copy dated 2026-03-10): the services index and the implants, oral surgery, emergency care, fillings, crowns, hygiene, technology, financial arrangements and contact pages, together with the clinic's Google listing. Recorded from the live pages: 3D cone-beam imaging, digital and panoramic X-ray and nitrous oxide sedation; same-day emergency care, implants, oral surgery and pediatric dentistry; a separate page with explanatory text for every treatment. Prices are not published - the financial page states that fees are discussed before treatment begins, and the only figures on the site are city-wide averages for fillings rather than the clinic's own fees. Contact channels are the phone, an appointment request and online hygiene booking, with no WhatsApp or LINE; hours are Monday-Thursday 8:00-17:00 and Friday 9:00-14:00, with no evening or weekend opening. The Google listing stands at 4.9 from 393 reviews with the newest readable review dated 2026-07-16. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence. |
| 2026-09-17 | Dental Emergency Services | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (treatments, contact and emergency-guidance pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: digital X-ray, dental implants, Invisalign, traditional orthodontics and extraction and wisdom-tooth surgery among the 21 listed emergency treatments; no cone-beam or 3D imaging and no pediatric entry in that same list, which the page pairs with a statement that regular, non-emergency care such as hygiene appointments and check-ups is not provided; intake runs through a 24/7 phone line and a general enquiry form rather than an online treatment estimate. Google rating steady at 4.6, review count grew from 1,579 to 1,583; the owner replied to four of the five readable reviews, including a one-star one. Both one-star reviews in that sample concern billing and insurance handling, so a recurring theme is recorded against a base of 1,583 reviews; nothing in the histogram or the reviews read suggested manipulated activity. Still unverified: work with international patients, and whether the clinic has a TripAdvisor profile. |
| 2026-09-17 | Paste Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (services, FAQ and Invisalign assessment pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: same-day appointments for urgent dental needs documented in the FAQ; the published service list covers Invisalign, general dentistry, cosmetic bonding, veneers and cleanings, with no implant and no pediatric-dentistry item; the online Invisalign assessment returns an instant treatment estimate; patients describe X-rays taken at the clinic, one of those accounts published on the clinic's own homepage; structured business data with address, coordinates and opening hours on that homepage. Google rating steady at 5.0, review count grew from 872 to 890; the owner replied to all five readable reviews, which show no shared complaint theme and no sign of manipulated activity. Still unverified: cone-beam imaging; oral surgery, which the clinic's Google listing names as a category while the published service list does not; work with international patients; and whether the clinic has a TripAdvisor profile. |
| 2026-09-10 | Midtown Dental Centre | Name-verification pass 2026-09-10: 'Dr. Perelgut' appears neither on the clinic's own roster (https://midtowndental.ca/meet-the-doctors/, read 2026-09-10, which names exactly three current dentists — Dr. Ramlaggan, Dr. Sepehr Torabi, Dr. Debono) nor at this address on the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario public register (https://www.rcdso.org/find-a-dentist/search-results/dentist?id=12048, read 2026-09-10, whose All Practice Locations list for Michael David Perelgut, registration 12048, gives only Bright Edge Dentistry, 6 Eglinton Ave E #316 and Quad Dental, 95 The Pond Rd); removed. The register shows him licensed and practising, at other clinics. |

| 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 | City Oasis Dental | License verification 2026-08-26 against RCDSO: Dr. Jennifer Lai found as a Member (#76908) with primary practice listed as City Oasis Dental, matching the clinic exactly. |

| 2026-08-26 | Dentix24 Dental Clinic | License verification 2026-08-26: clinic website names its dentists by first name only (Hamed, Leila, Yazden, Rob), with no surnames published, so none could be matched to a specific RCDSO registration — all left null rather than false. |
| 2026-08-26 | Downtown Dental Associates | License verification 2026-08-26 against RCDSO: 4 of 5 named doctors (Kilislian, Zadeh, Bourrouilh, Singh) matched a single, unambiguous RCDSO Member record (Zadeh, Bourrouilh and Singh at the clinic's own address); Payam Ouyarhossein not found under several spelling variants, left null.

Fetched the clinic's own site https://walkinfamilydental.ca/ and found the full Facebook link in its navigation/footer: https://www.facebook.com/people/Walkin-Family-Dentistry/61563757857811/.

Dr. Katsnelson's record shows a conditions/complaints flag on the RCDSO register. |
| 2026-08-25 | City Oasis Dental | Re-verification 2026-08-25: the website https://cityoasis.dental/ did not serve its pages on 2026-08-25, so name/address/phone could not be confirmed from the site itself. Google Maps profile shows the clinic open, not permanently closed, phone unchanged, but address postal code M5C 2R6 (vs. stored M5C 1K9) — recorded as a correction since Maps was the only source reachable that day. Newly captured Google rating 4.9 (391 reviews), Maps place URL and pin coordinates (previously unset). |

Google Maps rating/review count unchanged at 4.7/107; recorded Maps place URL and pin coordinates (newly captured).

| 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. |
