| 2026-09-30 | Andent Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-30 at the clinic's request, together with five neighbouring Tirana clinics: the clinic's website (home, specialists, dentist profiles, implant, All-on-4, All-on-6, general dentistry, FAQ, contact and dental-tourism pages, in English with the Italian, Albanian, French and Spanish versions), its Google listing, its Trustpilot and booking.dentist profiles and the register of the Order of Dentists of Albania. Recorded: Google 5.0 from 369 reviews, newest 2026-09-25, with owner replies continuing; a contact email; a €30 check-up including X-rays; All-on-6 prices alongside All-on-4. Corrected: cleaning and filling prices are published on the general dentistry page (scale and polish €50-70, composite fillings from €60); check-ups and preventive care for children are offered. Updated: All-on-6 is named alongside All-on-4, and Dr. Anduela Çurmaku is recorded as the clinic's founder and lead implantologist, her name spelled as on the site; the dentists list adds Laurent Bixheku, Iva Dervishi and Ira Dalipi with what the register shows for each. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence. Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-30 with the five canonical Tirana queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 2 of the five. |
| 2026-09-30 | Ardita & Kejsi Dental | Re-read the clinic's Facebook page (About and all posts), Instagram profile and Google listing on 2026-09-30: service list corrected to not published, as the clinic's own channels show single cases rather than a list of treatments (the earlier value rested on a directory profile); dentist specializations recorded as not stated, and no English website version. |
| 2026-09-30 | City Dental Clinic CDC | Re-read on 2026-09-30: the clinic's website (home, staff, price list, general dentistry, surgery, implantology, orthodontics, children's dentistry, sedation and dental-tourism pages, and its articles, in English, Italian and Albanian), its Google listing, WhatClinic, TripAdvisor and the register of the Order of Dentists of Albania. Recorded: Google 4.9 from 169 reviews, newest 2026-09-27, with owner replies continuing; zirconia crown price (€200); free remote consultation; structured data on the site; a WhatClinic profile. Corrected: an imaging price is published (3D scan €80). Not found in any language version of the site: cleaning and filling prices. Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-30 with the five canonical Tirana queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 0 of the five. |
| 2026-09-30 | ClassDent | Re-read the clinic's website (prices, services and team pages) and its Facebook page on 2026-09-30: X-ray price corrected to not published, as neither channel prices X-rays or CBCT scans (the earlier value rested on a directory listing); cleaning and filling prices recorded as not published. |
| 2026-09-30 | Elite Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-30: the clinic's website in English, Italian, Albanian and German (home, price list, services, who-we-are, treatment, photo and contact pages) and its Italian-language site dentistalbania.it, its Google listing, its WhatClinic profile and the register of the Order of Dentists of Albania. Recorded: Google 5.0 from 2,542 reviews, newest 2026-09-30; owner replies on some critical reviews; a contact email; the full price list (implants from €400, crowns from €130, fillings €50, CT scan €80). Corrected: the clinic names about ten dentists with their specialities; it describes a children's treatment room; the site carries no Dentist or LocalBusiness markup; six of the eight readable one-star reviews describe concerns dismissed or unanswered; a burst of 29 five-star reviews since 29 September leaves review manipulation undetermined. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence. Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-30 with the five canonical Tirana queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 5 of the five. |
| 2026-09-30 | EODENT Dental Clinic | Re-read the clinic's Facebook page, the Instagram account of its dentist and its Google listing on 2026-09-30: English website version recorded as absent, as the only website domain the clinic gives does not resolve. |
| 2026-09-30 | Family Dental Care | Re-read on 2026-09-30: the clinic's website (home, team, treatment, dental-tourism, contact pages and its articles, in Italian, English, Albanian, Spanish and French), its Google listing in English, Italian and Albanian, TripAdvisor's search and WhatClinic's Tirana directory. Recorded: Google 4.9 from 262 reviews, newest 2026-09-28; opening hours Monday to Saturday 8 AM to 8 PM; occasional owner replies; structured data on the site; the address on Rruga Bardhyl shown on the Google listing. Corrected: X-ray diagnostics are advertised as free; emergency treatment is listed among the endodontic services; the clinic's own articles list children's dentistry; All-on-6 surgery is offered under general anaesthesia; the readable low reviews repeat complaints about long waits and unfinished treatment; the review history is no longer described as clean, because four five-star reviews arrived on one day; the clinic is not found on other review platforms. Cleaning and filling prices remain unpublished. Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-30 with the five canonical Tirana queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 1 of the five. |
| 2026-09-30 | Firenze Dental | Re-read the clinic's website and Facebook page on 2026-09-30: published prices and implant price corrected to not published, as neither channel gives a price figure (the earlier values rested on a directory listing). |
| 2026-09-30 | Impress Dental Clinic | Searched Facebook on 2026-09-30 by the clinic's name with its city, with its country, and by its phone number; no page of the clinic was found. The Facebook page linked from a dental-tourism directory's profile of the clinic belongs to the directory itself. |
| 2026-09-30 | Impress Dental Clinic | Re-read the clinic's Instagram account and Google listing on 2026-09-30: dentist specializations corrected to listed (an oral surgeon and implantologist and an orthodontist); English website version corrected to none, as the clinic has no working website; a free consultation recorded from its Instagram; published prices and the filling, crown, implant, cleaning and X-ray prices now unverified, as the earlier values rested on directory listings and the Instagram account cannot be read in full. |
| 2026-09-30 | Impress Dental Clinic | Read the clinic's Instagram in full on 2026-09-30: its one post of the past year quotes no price, its Google listing lists none and its website is still unreachable, so no cleaning, filling, crown, implant or X-ray price is published; the prices on this card had come from directory listings. |
| 2026-09-30 | Klinika Dentare EuroDent | Found the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-30 (the site's own Facebook icon linked to a placeholder); the page's cover photo shows the clinic's own storefront signage. |
| 2026-09-30 | Klinika Dentare RUSI | Re-read the clinic's Facebook page, Instagram profile and Google listing on 2026-09-30: English website version recorded as absent, as the clinic has no working website. |
| 2026-09-30 | Klinike Dentare Durresi | Re-read the clinic's Facebook page (About, services and every post of the past 12 months) and its Instagram profile on 2026-09-30: website corrected to none, as the domain the page names no longer exists; published prices and the treatment prices corrected to not published, as the clinic's own channels carry no price list or figures (the earlier values rested on a directory listing). |
| 2026-09-30 | Sekniqi Dental | Found the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-30 by a direct search; it lists the clinic's own website and city. |
| 2026-09-30 | Trio Dental Center | Re-read on 2026-09-30: the clinic's website (home, prices, team, dentists, contact, implant, orthodontic and dental-tourism pages and its articles, in English with the Albanian, Italian, French and Spanish versions), its Google listing, TripAdvisor's own search, its Trustpilot profile and the register of the Order of Dentists of Albania. Recorded: Google 4.8 from 260 reviews, newest 2026-09-28, with owner replies continuing; an itemised 2026 price list; pediatric treatment and general anaesthesia offered; no emergency or same-day appointments documented. Corrected: the clinic's phone number is +355 69 747 4695, the one it publishes today; cleaning (€60) and filling (€40) prices are published; four of the six readable one-star reviews report dental work that failed, did not fit or was left unfinished, a repeated complaint. The flag for an unpublished price list is removed: the price list is published. Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-30 with the five canonical Tirana queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 4 of the five. |
| 2026-09-29 | Andent Dental Clinic | Corrected 2026-09-29: owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-25). |
| 2026-09-29 | Ardita & Kejsi Dental | Corrected 2026-09-29: clinic responds to reviews now unverified: with 4 Google reviews a missing owner reply shows nothing yet; dentist specializations listed, published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-29 | Balikçi Dental | Corrected 2026-09-29: review count 59 (was 55) from the Google listing on 2026-09-25. |
| 2026-09-29 | Balikçi Dental | Checked for a TripAdvisor listing: a name-and-city search on TripAdvisor found no matching profile, and the clinic's own website carries no TripAdvisor link. Recorded: not listed on TripAdvisor. |

| 2026-09-29 | Elite Dental | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-25); red flag "No dentists identified anywhere" removed: it contradicted the recorded finding that the clinic names its dentists. |

| 2026-09-29 | Family Dental Care | Re-read the clinic's website on 2026-09-29 (treatments page, the dental tourism page in Italian and Spanish, page and post sitemaps). Corrected: prices are published - the dental tourism page lists prices from 299 € for an implant and from 149 € for a crown, plus All-on-4/6 and denture prices, and advertises a free consultation. No cleaning, filling or X-ray price appears in that list, and no children's or emergency dentistry is among the clinic's treatments. |
| 2026-09-29 | Firenze Dental | Corrected 2026-09-29: review count 44 (was 41) from the Google listing on 2026-09-25; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-25). |

| 2026-09-17 | Andent Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s website (homepage price comparison table) and its Google listing. Recorded: free consultation; no price found for cleaning or fillings despite both being offered; address and map published; no pediatric dentistry documented; Google 5.0 from 368 reviews, newest dated 2026-07-06; no recurring complaints and no signs of manipulated reviews; open until 8 PM most weekdays. Removed: the "suspicious review patterns" flag, which rested on the site quoting a review count that could not be checked against a Google listing; the listing is now cited directly and its histogram (3 one-star, 2 four-star, 363 five-star of 368), review dates and reviewer histories show no manipulation. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and whether an X-ray taken at the clinic carries a price. |
| 2026-09-17 | Ardita & Kejsi Dental | Re-checked on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s Google listing (no clinic website exists). Recorded: the listing has only 4 reviews in total, so reputation-pattern fields (recurring complaints, suspicious patterns) are left unrated rather than scored as clean; none of the 4 reviews carries an owner reply; a genuine treatment-room photo on the listing; no individual treatment prices found on any channel the clinic controls. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and on-site equipment. |
| 2026-09-17 | Balikçi Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s website (clinic page, in English) and its Google listing. Recorded: 55 reviews, newest from two and a half months before this check; no recurring complaint pattern and no signs of manipulated reviews; a free consultation and an online quote form that accepts an X-ray upload; a WhatsApp contact widget; Organization structured data; no emergency service documented; no individual prices for cleaning, fillings, crowns or implants, and the in-house Panoramex is described as free "in most cases" rather than priced. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | Bushati Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (its compiled page content, including an English-language toggle) and its Google listing. Recorded: 50 reviews, newest from three weeks before this check; a genuine treatment-room photo on the clinic's own site; surgical implant procedures documented; no pediatric or emergency service found; Dentist structured data present; no individual treatment prices published. Hours: the site states Monday-Saturday 09:00-19:00, while the Google listing shows a shorter weekday schedule with Saturday closed — both are recorded, with the discrepancy noted. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, on-site X-ray/CBCT equipment, and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | City Dental Clinic CDC | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's homepage price table and its Google listing. Recorded: no cleaning, filling or X-ray price found on the price table; emergency dental service listed as a Google Business Profile category; Google 4.9 from 168 reviews, newest dated 2026-07-24, with owner replies; no recurring complaints or manipulation signs; open until 8PM most weekdays and on Saturday. Still unverified: 3D/CBCT imaging and TripAdvisor presence. |
| 2026-09-17 | Durrës Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s website (services, dental-implants and dental-tourism pages, in English) and its Google listing. Recorded: 168 reviews, newest from last month; free consultation offered as a standing policy; a CBCT/3D scanner documented on the implants page; no pediatric or emergency service found; Dentist structured-data markup present. Corrected: implant and crown prices to published, based on a standing comparison table on the dedicated implants page ("From €350" / "From €150") repeated in that page’s FAQ; the clinic still publishes no general price list. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | Elite Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (Italian price list, services page, homepage) and its Google listing. Recorded: filling, crown, X-ray/CT and consultation prices published; no cleaning price found despite cleaning being offered as a service; address and map published; no pediatric or emergency care documented; Google 5.0 from 2,483 reviews with no recurring complaints or manipulation signs; Saturday hours published. Still unverified: TripAdvisor and other-platform presence. |
| 2026-09-17 | Eminaj Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s website (homepage, dental-radiology and implantology pages, in English and Albanian) and its Google listing. Recorded: 35 reviews; no prices published anywhere on the site; a Sirona 3D radiography system documented on the radiology page; seven separate treatment pages with Organization structured data; pediatric dentistry listed as a category on the clinic’s Google profile. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, a WhatsApp contact, and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | EODENT Dental Clinic | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s Google Business Profile (rating, reviews, photos) and its only known website domain, which still does not resolve. Recorded: no working website; contact limited to the published phone number; no prices published on any readable channel; genuine premises photos on the Google listing. Corrected: the Google rating to 4.4 from 20 reviews (previously captured as 4.3), and recurring complaints to confirmed, based on two independent 1-star reviews describing the same zirconia bridge failure with no clear resolution offered. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, X-ray/CBCT equipment, and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | Family Dental Care | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s Google listing (the website’s dedicated treatment pages returned an interstitial page and could not be read). Recorded: Google 4.9 from 257 reviews, newest readable review dated 2026-05-09; no recurring complaints (one isolated negative review among the readable set) and no signs of manipulated reviews. Still unverified: itemized prices for cleaning, filling, crowns, implants, consultation and X-rays; pediatric and emergency care; TripAdvisor presence. |
| 2026-09-17 | Firenze Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s website (its one main page, in Albanian) and its Google listing. Recorded: 41 reviews, all five-star, newest from about a year before this check; no English-language version of the site, checked via its menu, an /en/ path and a language query parameter; no pediatric or emergency service found; no structured data describing the clinic as a business; no individual treatment prices published. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, whether the clinic responds to reviews, and on-site X-ray/CBCT equipment. |
| 2026-09-17 | Impress Dental Clinic | Re-checked on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s Google listing, its directory listing, and one more attempt to load its own website. Recorded: 37 reviews, newest from about five months before this check, all five-star; a genuine treatment-room photo on the Google listing; phone confirmed against the listing; no cleaning or X-ray price published; no dedicated pediatric service documented. Corrected: no working website - impressdentalclinic.al returned HTTP 525 on 2026-08-18 and again on 2026-09-17, and the Google listing now carries no website field. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, Facebook, and on-site CBCT equipment. |
| 2026-09-17 | Infinity Dental Valona | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (homepage and contact page) and its Google listing. Recorded: 247 reviews; the clinic replies personally to reviews, confirmed on all 5 readable examples; no recurring complaint pattern; no signs of manipulated reviews; Saturday opening hours; Organization structured data present; no pediatric or emergency service found; no individual treatment prices published. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and on-site X-ray/CBCT equipment. |
| 2026-09-17 | Klinika Dentare EuroDent | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (homepage and services page, English and Albanian) and its Google listing. Recorded: 409 reviews, newest from six weeks before this check; no recurring complaint pattern; no signs of manipulated reviews; pediatric care mentioned on the homepage; radiology equipment described without CBCT/3D capability; no emergency service found; weekday hours to 19:00 and Saturday opening; no structured data on the site; no individual treatment prices published. Still unverified: a working Facebook link (the site's Facebook icon points to a placeholder "#") and TripAdvisor presence. |
| 2026-09-17 | Klinika Dentare RUSI | Re-checked on 2026-09-17: the clinic's Google listing (no clinic website exists). Recorded: 50 reviews, newest from January; no recurring complaint pattern despite one detailed critical review; no signs of manipulated reviews; no individual treatment prices found (no website, and the Google profile lists none); available service descriptions amount to a specialty list rather than explanations of what each procedure involves. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, on-site equipment, and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | Klinike Dentare Durresi | Re-checked on 2026-09-17. The clinic's own website (klinikedentaredurresi.al) still does not resolve, and a fresh Google Maps search for the clinic's name, address and phone matched only the general Durrës city listing rather than a distinct business profile, so Google reputation figures were left unchanged. Recorded from the clinic's existing directory listing: cleaning and filling prices published; no X-ray price, pediatric or emergency service found. Still unverified: a live website, current Google rating/review count, and TripAdvisor presence. |
| 2026-09-17 | Marubi Dental Center | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (homepage and service sections, in Albanian) and its Google listing. Recorded: 31 reviews; a dated owner reply on one review; no recurring complaint pattern; radiology equipment described without CBCT/3D capability; no pediatric or emergency service; no WhatsApp contact; no structured data on the site; no prices published for any treatment. The newest readable Google review is from 2024. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and an English-language version of the site. |
| 2026-09-17 | Sekniqi Dental | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website, including its online service catalogue, and its Google listing. Recorded: 119 reviews, newest from last month; genuine treatment-room photos on the Google listing; no pediatric or emergency service found. The site's service catalogue prices every treatment at a placeholder €0.00 with an enquiry button, so no individual treatment price (cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation, X-ray) is actually published despite the catalogue's structure. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, Facebook page, and whether the clinic responds to reviews. |
| 2026-09-17 | Trio Dental Center | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic’s website (implant, crown and X-ray price table; homepage) and its Google listing. Recorded: implant (€350), crown (€120-200), X-ray (€50-100) and free-consultation prices published; no cleaning or filling price found; address, coordinates and map published; weekday and Saturday hours published; Google 4.8 from 258 reviews with a recent owner reply; no recurring complaints or manipulation signs. Corrected: the clinic does publish prices, on a dedicated implantology page. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence and same-day emergency care. |
| 2026-09-10 | Andent Dental Clinic | Twin parity (albania-dental / tirana-dental publish the same clinic): both cards already carried the same full re-read of the USSH register of dentists, which finds no row for this dentist and names the rows that do exist under the surname as its own control, but only one of the two published the verdict. Both now record that the register does not publish a licence for this dentist, and both cite that reading; the per-row source it was previously attributed to on albania-dental describes a different dentist. |

The twin searched the QKB Regjistri Tregtar (open business register) for "Andent" and found ANDENT dental clinic, NIPT M22314039G, Tirana, with Anduela Curmaku — the dentist this card names — as admin/partner; this card never ran that register, its own note only recording that the clinic's site publishes no number.

| 2026-09-07 | Balikçi Dental | Doctor licence data-standard normalisation: license:false -> null for Murat Balikçi, Melik Balikçi (no negative register/professional-body evidence naming them specifically was on file; the false value predates the methodology's null=unknown / false=documented-negative convention). |

| 2026-09-07 | Family Dental Care | Opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no citable evidence found on re-verification: familydentalcareal.com/en/ re-fetched 2026-09-07 carries only generic 'save up to 70%' and free-quote marketing, with no published figures, no price page and no teaser price that could be contradicted; Trustpilot is unreachable by automated fetch. Unsubstantiated savings framing over unpublished prices is marketing, and non-publication is already scored by the price-transparency criteria). |

| 2026-09-07 | Methodology v1.4.0 | Narrowed the "Opaque or bait pricing" red flag to what its published definition describes. Until now the flag was applied automatically to every clinic that does not publish a price list — a harsher statement than the evidence supports, since the catalogue defines the flag as complaints about final bills materially exceeding quoted prices, or advertised prices that are not honoured. Not publishing prices is already scored: it costs the clinic points in the price transparency category, and it is not, on its own, evidence of bait pricing. The automatic rule is removed, so the flag and its 2-point penalty come off about 1,300 clinic pages across the index; no clinic gains a flag, and no weight, severity or other scoring rule changed. The flag can still be recorded against a clinic by hand with cited sources, and about 210 clinics carry such an entry today; we are reviewing those entries in a follow-up pass, because some of them were also written for nothing more than an unpublished price list. |
| 2026-09-07 | Trio Dental Center | opaque_prices flag reviewed under methodology v1.4.0 and kept: the note hints at opacity but cites nothing verifiable, so it is annotated for re-verification at the next check. |
| 2026-09-07 | Trio Dental Center | opaque_prices flag re-verified under methodology v1.4.0 and kept with citable evidence: the clinic's own /prices/ page states it will show the complete price list for dental implants and then publishes none, offering only a 'save up to 70%' claim and a free-estimate form (fetched 2026-09-07). Note rewritten from the unsourced 'savings framing' wording to the quoted evidence; supporting source recorded. |
| 2026-09-03 | Methodology v1.3.1 | Clarified that the publication criteria refer to the clinic’s own channels: a service list, the names of the dentists and a price list count when the clinic itself publishes them (its website, its social profiles or its own Google Business profile) — registers, directories and review sites do not, and a time-limited promotional offer is not a price list. Added a third state for a dentist’s licence, "checked, not found in the public register": a dentist we searched for in the national register and did not find is now recorded as checked-but-unverified with the date of the check, instead of being shown either as "not checked yet" or as the "not published" red flag. Neither change alters any weight or penalty; the red-flag rule still fires only on a verified negative. Also corrected the wording of the penalty note under the ranking table, which rendered as "20−" in right-to-left dictionaries. |

| 2026-08-25 | City Dental Clinic CDC | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register: Ersted Muco confirmed licensed. Arber Gjermeni verified false - the surname does not appear anywhere in the register under any of 3 spelling variants tried. Bardhyl Skenderi, Eral Skenderi and Gisela Muca left null - their surnames are present in the register under different given names, so absence is ambiguous rather than confirmed. |

| 2026-08-25 | ClassDent | Re-verification 2026-08-25: classdentist.com direct fetch blocked (HTTP 403, bot protection) on both root and /en/home/ paths. Confirmed via search index and a third-party listing (whatclinic.com) that the site is live, the name and address (Rruga Taulantia, Lagja 1, Durrës) match stored data, and the clinic (per its own indexed pages) has been operating 22+ years with no closure indication.

| 2026-08-25 | Durrës Dental Clinic | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register: Kamela Spaho and Luiza Shuli not matched by exact name (surname absent or present under a different given name); 'Dr. Ilir' has no published surname and could not be searched. All left null, not false. |

Google reputation not captured; no changes recorded. |
| 2026-08-25 | Eminaj Dental Clinic | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register: neither Ervis Eminaj nor Uljana Eminaj matched by exact name; the surname Eminaj is present in the register under a different given name (Afedita), so left null rather than false. |

| 2026-08-25 | EODENT Dental Clinic | Removed manual red flag(s) no_clinic_license: they asserted unpublished licensing while the underlying data was unverified (null means "not checked", not "not published"). See methodology v1.3.0. |
| 2026-08-25 | EODENT Dental Clinic | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register (Olsi Hysa already verified in a prior pass, unchanged): Amarildo Dragoti, Bina Idrizi and Jurgen Kurtaj not matched by exact name in the register (surnames either absent or present under a different given name), left null rather than false. |
| 2026-08-25 | EODENT Dental Clinic | Re-verification 2026-08-25: no clinic website on file (no change). Opened medicaltourismco.com's clinic listing directly; address (Rruga Pavaresia, Durrës 2008) matches stored data, hours are posted (Mon-Sat 9am-8pm), and a review dated 2026-06-30 indicates recent activity with no closure indication. No clinic-direct phone found (listing shows only an intermediary agency's numbers, not applied to the record). Google reputation not captured; no changes recorded. |

Marsida Murati, Dorina Beqiraj, Ledjo Halili, Xhuliana Nikolli and Klejda Seiti left null - their surnames appear in the register under different given names, so absence is ambiguous rather than confirmed false. |

| 2026-08-25 | Family Dental Care | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live at familydentalcareal.com, name/phone unchanged, site current and active. Note: the site's contact/footer sections show two street references — the stored 'Rruga Kongresi i Manastirit, Tirana 1001' (present on the site) and also 'Rruga Bardhyl, Tirana 1001' elsewhere on the page; unable to determine which is primary, so address is left unchanged pending clarification.

See methodology v1.3.0. |
| 2026-08-25 | Impress Dental Clinic | Re-verification 2026-08-25: impressdentalclinic.al returned HTTP 525 (SSL handshake error) on both https and http, tried twice — the domain resolves but the origin server did not respond correctly today, so the site could not be opened. A search-index snapshot (not independently opened as a primary source) shows an address matching stored ('Rr. Enver Jaho, Vlorë'), and a targeted search for closure evidence found none. Operating status left unclear pending the site coming back up; address/phone left unchanged. Google reputation not captured. |

Google reputation not captured; no changes recorded. |
| 2026-08-25 | Klinika Dentare RUSI | Re-verification 2026-08-25: no clinic website on file (no change). Opened the clinic's Facebook page (facebook.com/klinikadentarerusi) directly; only the page title 'Klinika Dentare RUSI | Shkodër' was retrievable (full content requires login), consistent with the stored name, but address/phone/closure status could not be independently confirmed from it. Third-party search summaries (not independently opened as primary sources) describe it as operating since 1995 with no closure indication. Operating status left unclear; address/phone left unchanged. Google reputation not captured. |
| 2026-08-25 | Klinike Dentare Durresi | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register: Luciano Lico not matched by exact name; surname Lico is present in the register under other given names, so left null rather than false. |
| 2026-08-25 | Klinike Dentare Durresi | Re-verification 2026-08-25: stored website https://klinikedentaredurresi.al/ no longer resolves (DNS failure, confirmed on two separate attempts, http and https). No successor site found despite targeted search. The clinic still appears on Facebook, Instagram, and the booking.dentist directory with no closure indication; its Facebook page (opened directly today) is titled 'Klinike Dentare Durresi | Durrësi', consistent with the stored name, but full page content (address/phone/status) requires login and was not accessible. Operating status left unclear; address/phone left unchanged (not independently reconfirmed). Google reputation not captured. |
| 2026-08-25 | Marubi Dental Center | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register: Riton Marubi confirmed licensed (registry lists him as 'Riton Marubi Mhilli'). Rakela Marubi not matched by exact name, left null rather than false. |

| 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 | Sekniqi Dental | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH register (Genti Sekniqi already verified in a prior pass, unchanged): Abdullah Sekniqi and Dervish Sekniqi not matched by exact name, left null rather than false. |
| 2026-08-25 | Sekniqi Dental | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live at sekniqidental.com, name/phone unchanged, site active. Note: the site's own /en/contact/ page lists the address as 'Sheshi Demokracia, Shkoder' rather than the stored 'Rruga Vilson, godina pas PS, Shkodër 4001' — however independent third-party listings (myguide-albania.com, dentaltourismalbania.com) corroborate the stored Rruga Vilson address, so it is left unchanged pending clarification of this conflict. Google reputation not captured; no changes recorded. |
| 2026-08-25 | Trio Dental Center | License verification 2026-08-25 against USSH (Order of Dentists of Albania) register: Elian Dylgjeri confirmed licensed; Marsida Kume and Kristina Beqiraj not matched by exact name (surname present under other given names) so left null, not false. |

Google Maps rating/reviews could not be captured, including via a g.page short-link found on the clinic's own site; reputation fields left unset, no changes recorded. |
| 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. |
