| 2026-08-26 | COSMODENT Dental Clinic | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: smilejet.app/clinic/cosmodent-dental-clinic (s2) 404s - smilejet.app's own homepage now states it covers only Vietnam, Cambodia, Colombia and Bali, so Philippine clinic pages are gone from that aggregator. Re-cited onOtherPlatforms to the clinic's already-verified Google Maps listing (a genuine third-party platform); pruned s2. |
| 2026-08-26 | Dentistria Dental Office | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 2 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://www.dentistriadental.com/]: https://www.dentistriadental.com/ (HTTP 404, rotten) | s2 [https://smilejet.app/clinic/dentistria-dental]: https://smilejet.app/clinic/dentistria-dental (HTTP 404, rotten) |
| 2026-08-26 | Dentistria Dental Office | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: smilejet.app/clinic/dentistria-dental (s2) 404s (aggregator dropped Philippine coverage). Re-cited onFacebook/onOtherPlatforms to the clinic's already-verified Google Maps listing; pruned s2. s1 (dentistriadental.com, own site) remains genuinely dead on repeated direct checks (www/non-www/http/https all 404) with no live replacement or closure evidence found - left unresolved (also the manila needsReview website entry: same URL, same outcome, contacts.website left unchanged). |
| 2026-08-26 | Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center (GAOC) | 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://smilejet.app/clinic/gan-advanced-osseointegration-center]: https://smilejet.app/clinic/gan-advanced-osseointegration-center (HTTP 404, rotten) |

Re-cited onOtherPlatforms and worksWithForeigners to the clinic's own live site (gaocdental.com), which independently confirms both claims; pruned s2. reputation.recurringComplaints (value already null) needed no citation change. |

| 2026-08-26 | Gerochi Dental and Implant Center | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: smilejet.app/clinic/gerochi-dental-implant-center (s2) 404s. Re-cited onOtherPlatforms to the clinic's already-verified Google Maps listing. onFacebook (also backed only by s2) could not be reconfirmed - gerochidental.com's own homepage did not show a Facebook link on direct recheck - left untouched/unresolved rather than forcing a citation; s2 not pruned since it's still cited there. |
| 2026-08-26 | Smile More Dental Clinic | 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://smilejet.app/clinic/smile-more-dental-clinic]: https://smilejet.app/clinic/smile-more-dental-clinic (HTTP 404, rotten) |

| 2026-08-26 | Tooth & Go Dental Clinic | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: doctor.global (s2, whole domain unreachable, DNS timeout) backed 3 facts. Re-cited onOtherPlatforms to the clinic's already-verified Google Maps listing. infoTransparency.dentistNamesListed (Dr. Elkie Lumagui claim) and the doctor's own null-valued license entry could not be reconfirmed - the clinic's own site (dentist-manila.com) returned HTTP 403 on repeated direct fetch attempts (bot-walled, inconclusive) - left untouched/unresolved; s2 not pruned since it's still cited by those. |

| 2026-08-25 | Dentistria Dental Office | Re-verification 2026-08-25: dentistriadental.com is currently unhosted (Wix 'domain not connected' placeholder) - site is DOWN as of today, but the clinic itself is confirmed active via a live Google Maps listing (4.4 rating, 121 reviews, matching Legazpi Village address) and active Facebook (~3k followers)/Instagram (~960 followers) accounts; corrected phone to +63 2 8851 6491, confirmed across Maps, Facebook, and Instagram (worklist had +63-2-8668-4673); no sedation/GA info checked (site inaccessible). |

| 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 | Tooth & Go Dental Clinic | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Site offers 'CONSCIOUS SEDATION' by name; patient remains conscious, not asleep/unaware. |
| 2026-08-25 | VERA Dental Clinic | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, with Alabang/Muntinlupa branch address (Sycamore Arcade) and phone (0917-700-2383) unchanged; no distinct Google Maps listing could be found for this specific branch despite multiple targeted searches (only sibling VERA branches in San Pedro, Santa Rosa, Imus, General Trias, Tanza appear individually on Maps) - no rating captured for this branch; no sedation/GA info found on site. |
| 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. |
