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.
- ? General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — Not verified Site mentions an 'intelligent operating room' for surgery but no anaesthesia/sedation specifics.

Information Transparency
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
Price Transparency
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
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.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-01 | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: no clinic profile on WhatClinic, Doctoralia or Trustpilot, and Dental Departures does not cover Argentina, so onOtherPlatforms is now false; the datum previously rested only on the clinic's own site. |
| 2026-09-25 | Search visibility checked on 2026-09-25 for the five standard Buenos Aires, Argentina queries: not present for "best dentist Buenos Aires, Argentina", "English speaking dentist Buenos Aires, Argentina", "dental implants Buenos Aires, Argentina", "emergency dentist Buenos Aires, Argentina", "Buenos Aires, Argentina dental clinic for expats". |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's homepage (a single-page site with no further pages found in navigation or sitemap) and its Google listing. Recorded: owner replies to critical reviews, newest review within 3 months, no signs of manipulation in the ratings, and no structured data on the site. Corrected: two independent reviews describe crown/post restorations coming loose or failing months to years after treatment, a recurring-complaints pattern. No TripAdvisor presence. Still unverified: pediatric dentistry, emergency care, work with international patients, English spoken and a pre-visit consultation option, since the single page read does not describe them either way. |
| 2026-08-25 | 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 | 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. |
