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.

Price Transparency
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✓ | Prices or price ranges published The practice publishes a full price list of its own — teeth cleaning, bleaching, filling therapy, veneers, inlays, crowns, root canal treatment, periodontal findings and therapy, implants, All-on-4, bridges, dentures, digital smile design, grinding splints, orthodontics, extractions and tooth jewellery — with figures or ranges for every line, alongside its published tariff point values (private patients 1.25, social insurance 1.00, health-insurance tariff 3.10). [s3] | 3/3 |

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.
| ◐ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) Re-read live on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08 and unchanged at 4.6. The star histogram's weighted mean, 4.562, reproduces the published figure. [gmp1] [gmpb] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Confirmed on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08: the headline reads 265 and the histogram sums to the same figure (232 five-star, 2 four-star, 2 three-star, 6 two-star, 23 one-star). [gmp1] [gmpb] | 2.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Browser 2026-09-08, 8 visible reviews, sort: Google's own "Most relevant" order. The newest visible review is two months old; the rest run 7 to 11 months and 1 to 2 years. [gmpb] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews Browser 2026-09-08, 8 visible reviews, sort "Most relevant": the owner has replied individually to all eight, signing each with the treating clinician's name and in one case correcting a reviewer who credited a dentist who does not work at this address. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints Browser 2026-09-08, 8 visible reviews, sort "Most relevant": no review below five stars surfaced and no repeated theme is readable. One-star and two-star ratings together are 29 of 265, or 10.9 per cent of the base — under the 25 per cent at which the criterion is withheld, but the 23 one-star accounts were not surfaced by Google's relevance ordering and could not be read. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Browser 2026-09-08: histogram 232/2/2/6/23 with a mean of 4.562 against a published 4.6; the tail is broad and real, dates are spread and the owner replies are individually written. No manipulation signature. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The clinic links its own Facebook page facebook.com/zurichdentalswitzerland, including its reviews tab, from its site. [s1] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "ZurichDental Bahnhofplatz" and "ZurichDental Bahnhofplatz dentist"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor (checked 2026-10-05). [zurichdental-bahnhofplatz-zurich-tripadvisor] [zurichdental-bahnhofplatz-zurich-tripadvisor-2] | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Has its own entry with user ratings on local.ch (1 rating). [zurichdental-bahnhofplatz-zurich-platforms] | 0.5/0.5 |

The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray The published price list includes a digital volume tomogram taken in the practice. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | CBCT (3D imaging) The published price list names a digital volume tomogram — cone-beam computed tomography — inside the digital smile design package. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology The dental director holds a postgraduate implantology title, and the published price list carries implants, All-on-4 bridges and bone-related lines. [s2] [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics The team includes a named orthodontic specialist and the published price list carries aligner therapy and lingual brackets. [s2] [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery The team includes a named specialist in oral surgery and the published price list carries surgical extractions. [s2] [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Pediatric dentistry "Pediatric dentist" is one of the categories the practice publishes on its own Google Business Profile. [gmp1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Emergency care The site publishes a contact and emergency page and states the practice is open 365 days a year; "Emergency dental service" is a category on its own Google Business Profile. [s1] [gmp1] | 1.5/1.5 |

Communication & Service
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.

| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | English spoken The practice publishes a complete English version of its site. [s1] | 2.5/2.5 |
| ✓ | Pre-visit consultation possible The practice publishes that a short consultation about a treatment a patient has been considering is free of charge, and offers a full written quote in advance on request. [s4] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Clear service explanations The site explains each treatment step by step, and the conditions page explains how the Swiss time tariff and its tax point values translate into a bill. [s1] [s4] | 1/1 |
| ✓ | Convenient opening hours The practice publishes that it is open 365 days a year. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility

Licensing & Credentials
Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.
Clinic operating licence: BetReg, the federal facility and organisation register of the HealthReg portal (Swissmedic, Narcotics Control Ordinance): "Zurichdental AG", company GLN 7601002151504, Bahnhofplatz 12, 8001 Zürich, canton Zürich, narcotics authorisation 6020 (Verzeichnis f BetmVV-EDI), responsible professional Jakob Müller, GLN 7601000760791. Register queried live on 2026-09-07. (Switzerland publishes no register of dental clinics: there is no federal facility register for dental practices and no canton — Zurich included — publishes a list of holders of a cantonal Betriebsbewilligung (verified in our registry research for Switzerland). The only federal channel that names dental practices is BetReg, the facility and organisation module of the HealthReg portal, and it lists a practice only if the practice holds a narcotics authorisation under the Narcotics Control Ordinance. Presence in BetReg is therefore positive evidence; absence from it is not evidence of anything, which is why an unlisted practice is recorded as an honest null.) [reg2]

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | TripAdvisor presence checked on 2026-10-05: no listing found for this clinic. |
| 2026-09-10 | Name-verification re-read 2026-09-10: both dentists re-confirmed on the clinic's own already-cached /das-team page; one name is a shortened variant (no middle name) of the card's form, matched against the same already-cited MedReg record. Licence values unchanged. |

| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection: clinic site read body-first, including the team page, the conditions page and the full price list reached from it, which established figures for every price criterion; Google Maps place record read live for rating, review count, coordinates, address and business categories; MedReg queried for the dental director and a second named dentist and the full records read, with the second dentist’s cantonal authorisation recorded as granted but inactive; BetReg queried and the operating company found as Zurichdental AG with its company GLN; the five canonical visibility queries taken from the AI-visibility pre-pass; indexing quality measured with a name search. The display name carries the Bahnhofplatz site because the same company also operates a practice in Dübendorf. |
