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.

Reputation & Reviews
9.5 / 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.

| ? | No recurring complaints 1–2★ ratings are 2 of 11 (18.2 %), but the lowest-rated reviews read two 1★ reviews on different points (staff attitude and punctuality; a paid work that lasted a day), too few to show a theme. [rehoboth-dental-clinic-kigali-deepen-13] | 0/2 |
| ? | No suspicious review patterns Only 9 of the 11 reviews could be read (dated 2025-10-22 to 2026-08-21); fewer than ten, so a pattern cannot be judged from them. [rehoboth-dental-clinic-kigali-deepen-13] | 0/2 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Platform presence checked 2026-10-02: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed, RwandaYP or Trustpilot. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints now unverified: 1–2★ ratings are 2 of 11 and the low reviews themselves were not read; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-08-21). |
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's own site in full (48 pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: no price for any treatment; emergency appointments documented; Facebook page linked from the site; digital X-ray only, no cone-beam imaging; no WhatsApp/Line contact; no TripAdvisor listing found. |
| 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 review panel and of its own gallery page (2026-09-11). Eight of the eleven reviews were read: all eight carry owner replies, which settles the reply question the previous pass could not resolve, and the newest of them is six months old. The gallery page, which serves its images as CSS backgrounds and so is invisible to a plain fetch, was added as a source for the real-photo check. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification. Google place listing re-read live twice: rating 4.2 and pin reproduce exactly, but the place-detail record carries no review block on either read, so reviewRecency, respondsToReviews and the two complaint fields stay unset and go to the manual browser check. RMDC register re-extracted independently: all four licence numbers reproduce, and AGHOLOR and AMALIMEH are absent from the edition entirely. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial data collection: homepage, About, services, contact and appointment pages read; live Google place listing read for rating, review count and pin; four of six named dentists found in the RMDC register snapshot; 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;. |
