Changelog
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 |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-09-03 | 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 | DemiDent Odontología y Ortodoncia | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 1 dead source(s) confirmed unreachable in the fleet external-link sweep (checked 2026-08-26) and re-confirmed dead by direct recheck where applicable. s1 [https://demident.com.ar/]: https://demident.com.ar/ (attempt1: Connect Timeout Error (attempted addresses: 2800:6c0:2::183:443, 200.58.112.49:443, timeout: 10000ms); attempt2 (+30s): Connect Timeout Error (attempted addresses: 2800:6c0:2::183:443, 200.58.112.49:443, timeout: 10000ms), other->stable-dead on recheck) |
| 2026-08-26 | DemiDent Odontología y Ortodoncia | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: demident.com.ar (s1) re-verified genuinely dead (connection timeout; also flagged in needsReview, left as-is there too - no live successor found). Re-cited all 21 criteria facts previously sourced solely to s1 onto a Wayback Machine snapshot of the same site (2026-06-07, fetched and read directly via curl - WebFetch cannot reach web.archive.org) - content confirmed to still support every stored value, no value changes. Added the Wayback snapshot as a corroborating source on all 5 doctors. NOT pruning s1: it remains cited on all 5 doctors (the importer union-merges doctor sourceIds and has no operation to strip an id), so s1 cannot be fully retired via this pipeline - stays in sources[], now redundant with the Wayback source for every fact except the bare doctor listings. |
| 2026-08-26 | Dental Palermo | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 1 dead source(s) confirmed unreachable in the fleet external-link sweep (checked 2026-08-26) and re-confirmed dead by direct recheck where applicable. s2 [https://dentalpalermo.com.ar/english/]: https://dentalpalermo.com.ar/english/ (HTTP 404, rotten) |
| 2026-08-26 | Odontología Caballito | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 1 dead source(s) confirmed unreachable in the fleet external-link sweep (checked 2026-08-26) and re-confirmed dead by direct recheck where applicable. s2 [https://dentalclinics.com.ar/clinica-dental-odontologia-caballito-implantes-dentales-buenos-aires/]: https://dentalclinics.com.ar/clinica-dental-odontologia-caballito-implantes-dentales-buenos-aires/ (getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND dentalclinics.com.ar, rotten) |
| 2026-08-26 | Zuro Dental | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 1 dead source(s) confirmed unreachable in the fleet external-link sweep (checked 2026-08-26) and re-confirmed dead by direct recheck where applicable. s2 [https://ar.oopinoo.com/dentista/ciudad-de-buenos-aires/zuro-dental-group/]: https://ar.oopinoo.com/dentista/ciudad-de-buenos-aires/zuro-dental-group/ (getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND ar.oopinoo.com, rotten) |
| 2026-08-25 | AG Dental Recoleta | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live (agdentalrecoleta.com.ar) and address/phone unchanged; captured first-time Google rating 4.5 (132 reviews) and Maps place URL/coordinates. Note: the matching Google Business profile is listed under the practitioner's name ('Dra. Analía Giménez - Odontología') rather than the brand name, and its website link on Maps points to Facebook rather than the official domain — matched via identical exact address and phone. |
| 2026-08-25 | AG Dental Recoleta | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES under the brand name or the practitioner's surname. Dr. Analía Gimenez could not be confirmed in REFEPS — the single unambiguous same-name match is a registered nurse, not a dentist, and other candidates cannot be disambiguated without a DNI. |
| 2026-08-25 | Bass Odontología | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live and both branch addresses (Belgrano/Palermo) unchanged; captured first-time phone +54 11 2508-1898 (Belgrano branch, via Maps), Google rating 4.7 (300 reviews), and Maps place URL/coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | Bass Odontología | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. The three named dentists are listed by first name only on the clinic's site, with no surname available, so no reliable REFEPS lookup could be performed for any of them. |
| 2026-08-25 | Belgrano Studio Dental | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live and address unchanged; captured first-time Google rating 4.8 (226 reviews) and Maps place URL/coordinates. Note: Maps shows the clinic's WhatsApp number (+54 11 2578-3078) as primary contact; the stored number (+54 9 11 7556-6821) is confirmed on the official site as an alternate/WhatsApp line. |
| 2026-08-25 | Belgrano Studio Dental | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. Dr. Alejandro Rangel matched to REFEPS record for 'Jose Alejandro Rangel Rodriguez', licensed odontólogo, Matrícula 42687, CABA. |
| 2026-08-25 | DemiDent Odontología y Ortodoncia | Re-verification 2026-08-25: demident.com.ar could not be opened directly (repeated fetch failures/blocked); confirmed address and phone unchanged via its Google Maps profile, which lists the same domain. Rating steady 4.9; Google review count rose 191->310; captured Maps place URL/coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | DemiDent Odontología y Ortodoncia | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. Of five named dentists, two confirmed as licensed odontólogas in REFEPS (Maria del Pilar Demierre Mat. 38486 orthodontics specialist, Lucia Lopez Padros Mat. 38936, both CABA); Daiana Perez and Antonella Vito could not be disambiguated among multiple same-name entries; Maria Belén Migliardi's closest REFEPS match carries a different (compound) surname and a lapsed matrícula, so identity/status is left unconfirmed (null) rather than reported as false. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental Crew | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged; captured first-time Google rating 4.6 (243 reviews) and Maps place URL/coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental Crew | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. Dr. Edgardo Frenkel confirmed as licensed odontólogo, Matrícula 26792, CABA. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental DAS Group (Dental Argentina) | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live (dental-argentina.com) and phone +54 11 4828-0821 unchanged; Google review count rose 279->298 with rating steady at 4.6; captured Maps place URL/coordinates. Note: the Google Maps profile separately lists an alternate phone (+54 11 4824-7177) and an alternate domain (dental-argentina.com.ar), neither reflected on the primary site. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental DAS Group (Dental Argentina) | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS (Ministerio de Salud de la Nación): clinic confirmed registered in REFES (Centro Odontológico Dental DAS SRL, código 53020012317710, matching address and domain); both named dentists Gustavo A. Telo and Marisol Telo confirmed as licensed odontólogos with active matrículas in CABA and Buenos Aires Distrito X. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental Palermo | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged; site documents only local 'anestesia con inyección digital' (no sedation/general anaesthesia); captured first-time Google rating 4.9 (237 reviews) and Maps place URL/coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental Palermo | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Site documents only local 'anestesia con inyección digital' (digital injection anaesthesia); no sedation/GA. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dental Palermo | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. Dr. Claudio Sorrentino confirmed as licensed odontólogo, Matrícula 20886, CABA. |
| 2026-08-25 | DOHO Odontología y Ortodoncia | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged, rating steady at 5.0; Google review count rose 307->358; captured Maps place URL/coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | DOHO Odontología y Ortodoncia | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. Of six named dentists, three confirmed as licensed odontólogos in REFEPS (Cynthia Hatzerian Mat. 35469, Diego Figueiras Mat. 36957/25665, Agustina Diamante Mat. 45971, all CABA); three (Daiana Perez, Analia Miño, Ignacio Fernandez) could not be disambiguated among multiple same-name REFEPS entries. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dr. Isaac Meta | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live and address unchanged; captured first-time phone +54 11 4805-9621, Google rating 5.0 (18 reviews), and Maps place URL/coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | Dr. Isaac Meta | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES (individual boutique practice). Dr. Isaac Meta confirmed as licensed odontólogo, Matrícula 28711, CABA, matching the site's 'Isaac F. Meta, DDS'. |
| 2026-08-25 | Like Your Dentist | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live and address unchanged; captured first-time Google rating 4.9 (47 reviews) and phone +54 11 6569-0005 from the Maps profile. |
| 2026-08-25 | Like Your Dentist | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES (clinic) and SISA/REFEPS (dentists, Ministerio de Salud de la Nación): clinic not found in REFES; Dr. Carolina Pera confirmed as licensed odontóloga (Matrícula 32446, CABA); Dr. Luciana Luppino and Dr. Stephanie Scanlan not found in REFEPS. |
| 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. |
| 2026-08-25 | Odontología Caballito | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address unchanged, rating steady at 4.6; Google review count rose 141->205; captured Maps place URL/coordinates. Note: Maps lists an alternate phone (+54 11 3617-1213) that the official site also publishes alongside the stored number (+54 11 4903-8798). |
| 2026-08-25 | Odontología Caballito | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES (Ministerio de Salud de la Nación): clinic not found in REFES by name search. No named doctors are listed on the clinic's site to check against REFEPS. |
| 2026-08-25 | Ortodoncia Salud | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live (active blog, most recent post dated 2026-08-14) and captured first-time phone numbers (+54 11 5642-1245 / 4961-8116). Could not reliably identify this clinic's Google Maps profile — the closest name/location match ('AS Ortodoncia', Larrea 1007) has a different phone number, so no rating, review count, or coordinates were recorded to avoid misattribution. |
| 2026-08-25 | Ortodoncia Salud | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES: clinic not found in REFES. No named doctors are listed on the clinic's site to check against REFEPS. |
| 2026-08-25 | Solón Dental (Solución Dental) | Re-verification 2026-08-25: website reachable in-browser (direct automated fetch blocked with HTTP 403); captured first-time address (two branches: Belgrano and Palermo), phone +54 11 2604-8688, Google rating 4.9 (139 reviews), and Maps place URL/coordinates for the Belgrano branch. |
| 2026-08-25 | Solón Dental (Solución Dental) | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES: clinic not found in REFES. No named doctors are listed on the clinic's site to check against REFEPS. |
| 2026-08-25 | Zuro Dental | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, both branch addresses (Alvear 2345 and Azcuénaga 1077) and phone unchanged; captured first-time Google rating 4.5 (629 reviews) for the Alvear location plus Maps place URL/coordinates. Note: the Azcuénaga branch has a separate Google listing showing 4.7 (927 reviews). |
| 2026-08-25 | Zuro Dental | License verification 2026-08-25 against SISA/REFES and SISA/REFEPS: clinic not found in REFES. Dr. Orlando Zurita matched to REFEPS record for 'Orlando Hector Zurita Escalera' (compound surname), licensed odontólogo, Matrícula 35616, CABA. |
| 2026-08-23 | Methodology v1.2.0 | Added an informational "Sedation & general anaesthesia" availability field to every clinic and a new "Sleep Dentistry (Sedation / GA)" list, for patients who cannot tolerate — or would rather not be awake for — treatment. This field is informational and does not change any transparency score. |
| 2026-07-08 | Methodology v1.1.0 | Added licensing transparency: clinics are now penalised when they do not publish their operating licence, or do not list their dentists together with their professional licence numbers. Each clinic page now shows a Licensing & Credentials section. |
| 2026-07-03 | Methodology v1.0.0 | Initial public methodology. |
