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
20 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] | 4/4 |

Reputation & Reviews
11.5 / 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) Read live from the Google place listing on 2026-09-10. The star histogram published on the same page is 9 five-star, 0 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star and 0 one-star: it sums to the 9 the page reports and averages 5.00, which reproduces the published rating. [gmp1] | 3/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live from the Google place listing on 2026-09-10. [gmp1] | 0.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest review the place page renders is 2 months old; the rendered sample runs 2, 6, 10 and 11 months and a year. [gmp1] | 3/3 |
| ? | Clinic responds to reviews Only 8 reviews dated within the last 24 months were read, none with an owner reply; fewer than ten, so whether the owner answers reviews stays open. [greendent-dental-clinic-kigali-deepen-9] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints All five reviews the place page renders are five-star; the only cost remark is a reviewer calling the fee reasonable. No complaint appears in the sample at all. The star histogram on the same page is 9 five-star and nothing else, so the sample is the whole review base. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns The five reviews are spread over 2, 6, 10 and 11 months and a year, differ sharply in wording and length, and come from distinct accounts; no burst and no template. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The clinic runs its own Facebook page, facebook.com/greendentrwanda. [s4] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "GreenDent Dental Clinic Kigali" and "GreenDent"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor (checked 2026-10-02). [greendent-dental-clinic-kigali-deepen] [greendent-dental-clinic-kigali-deepen-2] [greendent-dental-clinic-kigali-deepen-3] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms No profile found on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed, RwandaYP or Trustpilot (checked 2026-10-02).

Medical Infrastructure
10 / 15
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray The general-dentistry group names "X-rays & Diagnostics". [s3] | 2/2 |
| ? | CBCT (3D imaging) Not established. One reviewer writes that a cone-beam CT scan was taken, but the clinic names no such machine anywhere on its own site, and the four photographs of its treatment rooms on its own About page show no imaging unit. | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology The oral-surgery group names dental implants; the founder is described as an implant specialist. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Certified Invisalign provider, traditional, clear and ceramic braces, removable appliances, retainers. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery Wisdom-tooth removal, extractions, implants, soft-tissue surgery. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | Pediatric dentistry The services page publishes five groups — general, endodontic, cosmetic, orthodontic and surgical — and none of the 26 named procedures is children's dentistry. [s3] | 0/1.5 |
| ✗ | Emergency care No emergency or same-day service is named anywhere on the clinic's own services page. [s3] | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Works with international patients Listed by the U.S. Embassy in Kigali under DENTISTS, as "Greendent Clinic (Dr. Kadir)". [emb1] | 2/2 |

AI & Search Visibility
3 / 10
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Rwanda", "English speaking dentist Rwanda", "dental implants Rwanda", "emergency dentist Rwanda", "Rwanda dental clinic for expats".

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Platform presence checked 2026-10-02: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed, RwandaYP or Trustpilot; no TripAdvisor listing. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: clinic responds to reviews now unverified: with 9 Google reviews a missing owner reply shows nothing yet. |
| 2026-09-11 | Editorial review of the licence column: each registration now shows the registration number the Rwanda Medical and Dental Council register carries for the practitioner, and the description of the register itself - its edition, its size and the name spelling it uses - moved out of the identifier field, where it was printed in full on this page. The register, its edition and the reading remain cited as the source of the number. |
| 2026-09-11 | Browser reading of the clinic’s Google listing, its review panel and its own About page (2026-09-11). Eight of the nine reviews were read and not one carries an owner reply, which settles the reply question left open before. The About page’s facility photographs were checked and are of the clinic’s own treatment rooms; they show no cone-beam CT unit, so the single reviewer’s mention of one remains unconfirmed. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification. The place-detail record carried a review block on re-reading, which it had not before: reviewRecency (within_3_months), recurringComplaints (false) and suspiciousReviewPatterns (false) are now read from the live place page. respondsToReviews stays unset — no owner reply appears among the five reviews shown. One reviewer describes a cone-beam CT scanner at the clinic; the clinic itself publishes no such thing, so hasCBCT stays unset and goes to the manual browser check. Sweep 2: the search: pseudo-source was removed from the founder's licence citation. Services recounted off the live page: 26 named procedures, not 25. The U.S. Embassy entry for GreenDent carries no languages line, so it no longer backs englishSpoken. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial data collection: homepage, about and services pages read in full; live Google place listing read for rating, review count and pin; U.S. Embassy dentist list checked; founder matched to the RMDC register snapshot through his own professional profile's fuller name form; five canonical visibility queries taken from the AI-visibility file. Review dates, owner replies and complaint reading could not be obtained — the place-detail record Google returned for this listing carries no review block;. |
