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
Summary
General dental clinic in Paysandú publishing orthodontics, invisible aligners, prosthetics and emergency ("urgencias") care on dedicated pages, with an online booking form and an active Instagram profile; it also runs a second consultorio in Florida. No individual dentist was named on the pages read.
The initial data collection took the address from the site's HTML <title>, which still reads "Leandro Gomez 1447". The page body and the clinic's own Google listing both give Rincón 1303 esquina Vizconde de Mauá — the title tag is stale and the card has been corrected to the body address.

Score Breakdown
Every criterion below is scored from public sources. ✓ verified yes · ✗ verified no / not found · ◐ partial · ? unverified (scores 0, not a negative finding).

| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✗ | Dentist names listed Homepage and contact page read; no individual dentist named. [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Dentist specializations listed No page of the website names a dentist or states a specialisation; the team section is general text [cosmedent-deepen-14] [cosmedent-deepen-15] | 0/2 |

| ✗ | English website version [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published [s1] [gmap] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed Six site pages checked; no price figures in the server HTML [cosmedent-deepen] | 0/2 |

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.
| ◐ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) Rating 5.0 over 12 reviews, re-read live 2026-09-11 and cross-checked against the place's own rating histogram (12/0/0/0/0), whose mean is exactly 5.00 — the histogram the verification pass could not retrieve. [gmap] | 4/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume [gmap] | 0.5/3 |
| ◐ | Review recency Newest Google review is dated 2026-06-16 (listing read 2026-09-29). [cosmedent-gbp-2026-09-29] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner replies to reviews on Google: 6 of the 6 reviews read carry an owner reply, 5 of them to reviews from the last 12 months; the latest reply is dated 2026-06-17 (to a review of 2026-06-16). [cosmedent-deepen-18] [gmap] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints The place's own rating histogram (12/0/0/0/0, read 2026-09-11) contains no review below five stars at all, so the threshold of three dated reviews by different authors about the same thing cannot be reached. [gmap] | 2/2 |
| ? | No suspicious review patterns Only 6 of the 12 reviews could be read (dated 2025-05-17 to 2026-06-16); fewer than ten, so a pattern cannot be judged from them. [cosmedent-deepen-18] | 0/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence Not established: the Facebook address on the clinic's website (facebook.com/CosmeDent.uy) is a personal profile named "Cosme Dent", not a page of the clinic, and its posts are not public (checked 2026-10-05). [cosmedent-deepen-17] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence Two independent negatives: TripAdvisor search and own site [cosmedent-deepen-5] [cosmedent-deepen-9] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms Two independent negatives: WhatClinic and TripAdvisor [cosmedent-deepen-6] [cosmedent-deepen-10] | 0/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ? | On-site X-ray | 0/2 |

| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ? | English spoken | 0/2.5 |
| ✓ | Pre-visit consultation possible The site publishes an enquiry form ("Contanos tu consulta") and a "Reservar ahora" booking call to action. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ? | Clear service explanations | 0/1 |
| ✓ | Convenient opening hours Google Business Profile hours read live 2026-09-11: Monday to Friday 9 AM–5 PM and Saturday 10 AM–2 PM. The Saturday opening was missed by the earlier read, which recorded weekday hours only. Scored against a single published rule: evening opening (closing 19:00 or later) or Saturday/Sunday opening. [gmap] | 1.5/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Uruguay", "English speaking dentist Uruguay", "dental implants Uruguay", "emergency dentist Uruguay", "Uruguay dental clinic for expats".

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-30 | Read every page of the clinic's website and the photos on its Google listing. Recorded: no page names a dentist or states a specialisation; the listing's own photos show the clinic's storefront at Rincón 1303 and its treatment room. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: active Facebook presence now unverified: no Facebook search is on record, so the absence of a page is not established; review recency within a year (newest review dated 2026-06-16). |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's home, services, general, endodontics, urgencias and contact pages (a two-branch Wix site, Paysandú and Florida) and its Google listing. Recorded: no implant or surgery service in the complete published menu (general dentistry is offered "for all ages"); WhatsApp numbers confirmed for both branches; no price figures found anywhere in the page HTML. Checked TripAdvisor and the national WhatClinic directory: no profile on either. Still unverified: named dentists' specializations, genuine premises photos, on-site X-ray/CBCT equipment, English-speaking staff and work with foreign patients. |
| 2026-09-11 | Live verification in a browser: the rating histogram was read for the first time and confirms 5.0 over 12; every review shown was found to carry an owner reply; a published Saturday opening was found that the earlier read had missed. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification: the address was refuted — the initial data collection had taken it from a stale HTML title; corrected to the body and Google-listing address, with the Florida consultorio recorded; Google rating, review volume, hours, geo, service pages and the booking channel added. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial research pass: Cosmedent identified via web search discovery and own-site verification. |
