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) — No general anaesthesia or deep sedation documented Only "Lokalbedøvelse/Narkose" local anaesthesia is priced; no general-anaesthesia/deep-sedation option is listed. [s2]

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
18 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed The clinic's own Aalborg page carries a "Moed vores dygtige tandlaeger" block naming three dentists - Vahid, Morten and Leila (Tandlaege og klinikejer) - with qualification years, plus named hygienists, assistants and a dental assistant. [s4] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed A qualification is stated for a named dentist: Vahid is listed as "Udlaert Tandlaege 2008, Udlaert Tandteknikker 2000, Medlem af Dansk ortodonti Selskab" (member of the Danish Orthodontic Society). [s4] | 2/2 |
| ? | Real clinic photos Looked at on the clinic's Google place page on 2026-09-08 and left unassessed, because the listing carries no photograph of the practice at all. Its lead image is a street-level frame of the neighbouring GameStop shopfront and the arcade entrance at Bispensgade — the building the clinic sits in, not the clinic — and the rest of the strip is visitor photography. A frame of the host building is not the clinic's publication of itself under the fleet rule. The clinic's own website was not opened for this purpose in this pass, so the field stays null rather than false. [gmp1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Own navigation lists a full treatment menu. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Phone number and a contact/booking page are published and match the Behandlingsstedsregisteret and Google Maps listings. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version Dedicated English site at lotusdental.dk/en/. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published Address published on the clinic's own site, matches the Behandlingsstedsregisteret extract and the Google Maps place record; a "find vej"/map link is provided. [s1] [reg] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
15 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✓ | Prices or price ranges published Own /priserliste page publishes a very detailed fee table: cosmetic veneers, exams, cleaning, fillings, build-ups, root canal, surgery, crowns, implants, dentures, splints, whitening, orthodontics, periodontal treatment, anaesthesia, missed-appointment fees. [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Cleaning price listed Tandrensning A/B 235.64/169.41 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Filling price listed Lille/stor kindtand fillings, 1,100-1,895 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Crown price listed Porcelænskrone 5,995 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Implant price listed Implantat inkl. alt fra 19,800 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Consultation price listed Konsultation uden behandling 297.65 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | X-ray / imaging price listed Røntgenbillede 171.84 kr.; 3D røntgen CBCT 2,500 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
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 on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08. Unchanged from the headless reading of 2026-09-07. The star histogram — 105 five-star, 7 four-star, 1 three-star, 1 two-star and 5 one-star — sums to 119, matching the 119 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.731 reproduces the published 4.7. [gm1] [gmp1] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-08 from the place-page header, and the star histogram sums to the same figure. The card carried no count before this pass: the headless map method used in phase C returns the rating but never the review count on this listing, which is why it was queued to the browser worklist. [gmp1] | 2/3 |
| ✗ | Review recency The newest review visible is 2 years old, which proves the older bucket and no better. Visible dates: four entries at 2 years, three at 3 years and one at 7 years. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmp1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews No owner reply appears under any of the eight reviews visible on the place page on 2026-09-08, and they carry text, so the negative is evidenced rather than assumed. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmp1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints One critical account is readable and it stands alone: a one-star three years old from a caller who says that when he rang about emergency care for his mother's broken tooth, the receptionist hung up as soon as he asked whether they could speak English. There is no second readable negative, so no theme repeats. One- and two-star ratings together are 6 of 119, 5.0 % of the base, well below the 25 % at which the fleet rule withholds a verdict. The account is recorded because it bears directly on a criterion this catalogue publishes — whether the practice works with patients who do not speak Danish — and the clinic's own site advertises nine language versions. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order — the "Newest" sort does not open to automation, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Judged on the histogram shape, the spread of dates, the variety of reviewers and the wording, on 2026-09-08. Every bucket of the histogram is populated — 105/7/1/1/5 — which is not a manufactured shape, and the visible dates spread from two to seven years with no cluster. Several of the visible reviews are very short or emoji-only, which is ordinary rather than suspicious on a Danish city-centre practice, they are written in at least three languages, and there is no owner engagement anywhere on the profile to curate anything. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence | 0/1 |
| ? | TripAdvisor presence | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Trustpilot profile for the clinic's own domain (claimed December 2023): 4.4 over 60 reviews, read 2026-09-07. [tp1] | 0.5/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
11.5 / 15
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | CBCT (3D imaging) CBCT priced at 2,500 kr. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Tandregulering med usynlige skinner priced (25,000-35,000 kr.). [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery [s2] | 2/2 |
| ? | Pediatric dentistry | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Emergency care Own "Akut Tandlæge Aalborg" nav item and page. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ? | Works with international patients | 0/2 |
Communication & Service
5 / 10
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
| ✗ | WhatsApp / LINE available No WhatsApp/LINE contact channel found on the clinic's own site; phone and web contact form only. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | English spoken [s3] | 2.5/2.5 |
| ? | Pre-visit consultation possible | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Clear service explanations [s1] | 1/1 |
| ✓ | Convenient opening hours Confirmed independently on 2026-09-08 against the clinic's own Google Business Profile, which publishes the full week: Monday to Thursday 08:00–17:00, Friday 08:00–16:00, **Saturday 08:00–14:00** and Sunday closed. The Saturday opening is what satisfies this criterion under the rule this wave applies to every card — a close at 19:00 or later on a weekday, or any weekend opening — and it is the only weekend opening found on any of the twenty Danish cards. [s1] [gmp1] | 1.5/1.5 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-08 | Browser pass (phase I): the clinic’s Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read on both its Reviews and Overview tabs. Recorded from it: the rating re-verified against the star histogram, the review count (previously unknown — the headless map method never returned it), the histogram itself (105/7/1/1/5 = 119, weighted mean 4.731), review recency, the owner-reply state, the complaint reading and the manipulation reading from the eight most-relevant reviews, the lead owner photograph and the full published opening week. Fields this pass did not measure are untouched. |
| 2026-09-07 | Adversarial verification: the "Moed teamet i Aalborg" roster the previous pass could not resolve was located at /tandlaege-aalborg/, so dentistNamesListed and specializationsListed both moved from false to true; Google rating 4.7 reproduced live (review count still not exposed headlessly - queued to the browser worklist); Trustpilot profile added; 12 dedicated treatment pages confirmed; the licence value now carries the SOR-ID and P-number. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial research pass: Behandlingsstedsregisteret licence match, live headless Google Maps rating/geo, English site and detailed fee table read; a named-dentist roster page exists ("Mød teamet i Aalborg") but was not resolved in this pass — queued to the browser worklist. |
