Anestesia general y sedación profunda
Si la clínica documenta tratamientos bajo anestesia general o sedación profunda / crepuscular — la «odontología del sueño», en la que el paciente duerme y no percibe nada (no siente, ve ni oye el procedimiento). La sedación consciente ordinaria, en la que el paciente permanece despierto y receptivo, no cuenta aquí. Es información orientativa y no afecta a la puntuación de transparencia.

Transparencia de la información
20 / 20
Si los datos básicos sobre la clínica — su equipo, sus instalaciones, sus servicios y su ubicación — son públicamente verificables.
| ✓ | Tiene un sitio web operativo [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Se indican los nombres de los dentistas Three dentists named in the homepage team block. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Se indican las especializaciones de los dentistas Dr. Pedro Habet, orthodontist; Dr. Bryan Habet and Dr. Jorge Habet, dental surgeons. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Fotografías reales de la clínica Read in a browser on 2026-09-10: the homepage "Our Office" block publishes five photographs of the practice's own rooms — two operatories with named staff at work, its panoramic X-ray unit with a patient in it, and a consultation station with a radiograph on screen. The hero image above them is stock; the office block is not. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Lista de servicios publicada Five service areas, each with its own page: general dentistry, orthodontics, cosmetic dentistry, paediatric dentistry, oral surgery / dental implants. [s1] [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Datos de contacto claros Three phone numbers including a WhatsApp cell, an e-mail address and a street address in the site header and footer. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Versión del sitio web en inglés [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Dirección y mapa publicados [s1] [gm] | 2/2 |
Transparencia de precios
0 / 15
Si un paciente puede estimar los costes antes de la visita. Los rangos de precios publicados cuentan; no se exigen precios exactos.
Reputación y reseñas
12 / 20
Señales públicas de reseñas. La valoración de Google se ajusta con una previa bayesiana (valoración 4.0, peso 25) para que un 5.0 con un puñado de reseñas no supere a un 4.8 con cientos.
| ◐ | Valoración de Google (ajustada de forma bayesiana) Read in a browser on 2026-09-10 on the practice-managed listing: 4.9 from 29 reviews, rating histogram 0/0/0/2/27 from one to five stars, whose sum matches the review count and whose implied mean of 4.93 reproduces the published rating. The verification pass could not get the review block out of this listing on five automated probes; the browser returns it. [gm] | 4/6 |
| ◐ | Volumen de reseñas de Google 29 reviews, confirmed in the browser on 2026-09-10 against a histogram that sums to the same number — the largest public review base in the Belize index. [gm] | 1/3 |
| ✓ | Frescura de las reseñas as of 2026-09-25 [the-dental-center-belize-city-deepen-11] | 3/3 |
| ? | La clínica responde a las reseñas 4 reviews from the last 24 months were read on the Google listing, none with an owner reply, too few to say the clinic does not answer reviews (read 2026-10-02). | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Sin quejas recurrentes The histogram read in the browser on 2026-09-10 is 0/0/0/2/27: there is no one- or two-star review in the base at all, so there is no complaint that could repeat. The eight reviews shown each describe a different treatment by a different one of the three dentists. [gm] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Sin patrones de reseñas sospechosos no signs of manipulation [the-dental-center-belize-city-deepen-11] | 2/2 |
| ? | Presencia activa en Facebook Not established: no Facebook page is linked from the clinic's own channels, and none was found under its name (checked 2026-10-02). | 0/1 |
| ✗ | Presencia en TripAdvisor No matching listing in TripAdvisor's own search on 2026-09-25 [the-dental-center-belize-city-deepen-12] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Otras plataformas de reseñas No profile of its own on a review platform: American Health Tourism has only an unclaimed directory entry with no reviews; WhatClinic, Dental Departures and Bookimed list no clinic in Belize.

Historial de cambios
| Fecha | Cambio |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Reputation check 2026-10-02 on the clinic's Google listing (10 reviews read): nothing settled; owner replies to reviews left unassessed. |
| 2026-10-02 | Other review platforms corrected to none: the American Health Tourism entry is an unclaimed directory page with no reviews, and WhatClinic, Dental Departures and Bookimed list no clinic in Belize (checked 2026-10-02). |
| 2026-10-01 | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-01: facility page on American Health Tourism (same address and phone, no reviews yet); the directory listing cited before is not a review platform. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: clinic responds to reviews now unverified: only 8 reviews were checked for owner replies; active Facebook presence now unverified: no Facebook search is on record, so the absence of a page is not established. |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's own website in full (all 12 pages in its sitemap), its Google listing sorted by newest and lowest reviews, and a TripAdvisor search. Recorded: no cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation or X-ray price anywhere on the site; newest review from 2026-08-05; no signs of manipulation in the review history; digital X-ray documented but no CBCT; no emergency or same-day care documented; no listing on TripAdvisor. Still unverified: whether the clinic works with foreign patients, and whether its "Book Now" request form counts as an online consultation. |
| 2026-09-10 | Reputation reread: every place record reopened with its reviews panel, showing the eight most relevant reviews with their dates, the reviewers' histories, and any owner replies. Owner-reply status settled on all sixteen cards, and review recency and complaint patterns settled where the panel allowed it. Clinic channels that had not opened before — Facebook pages, clinic websites and OpenStreetMap listings — were read for the first time. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification: every card re-read against its live Google place record with the two-step /maps/preview/place method, which returns the rating histogram and the review snippets the compact endpoint omits. Recovered the review blocks the initial data collection could not reach on two cards, added review recency and complaint / manipulation assessments where snippets could be read, corrected criteria sourced to listings the clinic does not control, and removed cited pages that were never actually readable. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial data collection for the Belize Dental Transparency & Trust Index: read from the clinic's own channels where it has any, its live Google Maps place record, and independent directory or press listings. Belize publishes no dental register, so all licence fields are recorded as unverified. |
