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.

Summary
Amwaaj Dental Center occupies two floors of the Mazaya Clinic VI tower in Ras Al Salmiya, publishing a bilingual site with a full general/cosmetic/implant/periodontic/orthodontic/endodontic service list. A directory review credits the clinic with the highest review volume among the Salmiya clinics surveyed for this index, though that figure was not independently confirmed via a live Google Maps listing.
No individual dentist names beyond "Dr. Mehtab Khan" (cited in a directory review) were confirmed; the site describes its dentists collectively rather than by name. Corrected 2026-09-02: the card previously recorded that the only dentist name available was a reviewer mention of "Dr. Mehtab Khan". The clinic publishes a five-name roster with qualifications on amwaajdental.com/our-doctors/, which was not opened. The clinic also publishes a "How much do dental implants cost in Kuwait?" article; it was read in full today and contains no figure, so pricesPublished is unaffected.

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
20 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s2] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed Refuted 2026-09-02: the card said the site describes its dentists collectively without individual names. The Our Doctors page names five. [s9] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed Each of the five names carries an MDS qualification and a specialization (prosthodontics, orthodontics, periodontics/implant surgery). [s9] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos Real treatment-room photos in the site gallery [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published [s1] [s2] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
0 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published No price list on the homepage; nav has no pricing link. The clinic's own blog post about implant costs discusses cost factors only, with no price figure (checked 2026-09-03). [s10] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed No price figures on any of the 106 pages in the site sitemap [s2] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed No price figures on any of the 106 pages in the site sitemap [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-4] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Crown price listed No price figures on any of the 106 pages in the site sitemap [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-5] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed Implant-cost article and implant page give no figure [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-13] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Consultation price listed No consultation fee on the appointment page or elsewhere [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-6] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | X-ray / imaging price listed No price figures on any of the 106 pages in the site sitemap [s2] | 0/2 |
Reputation & Reviews
19 / 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) as of 2026-09-25 [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-8] | 6/6 |
| ✓ | Google review volume as of 2026-09-25 [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-9] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Newest review sorted by date on 2026-09-25 is dated 2026-09-17 (a week ago) [amwaaj-dental-center-deepen-10] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner has replied to 8 of the 8 reviews visible on the Reviews tab. Read on the Google Maps place page's Reviews tab on 2026-09-03. A newest-first sort could not be applied, so the sample is in Google's relevance order. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No negative surfaced among the eight visible. Histogram 2,051/73/17/9/38 over 2,188; 38 one-star reviews were not surfaced, so this is a "none seen in the sample", not a clean bill. Read on the Google Maps place page's Reviews tab on 2026-09-03. A newest-first sort could not be applied, so the sample is in Google's relevance order. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Histogram 2,051/73/17/9/38 over 2,188 - sums exactly to the header count, and 10,654/2,188 = 4.869 reproduces the published 4.9. The 38 one-star and 9 two-star blocks stand unremoved, wording is individual and describes different treatments, and accounts hold 1 to 134 reviews. Recorded rather than hidden: all eight visible reviews fall within a five-month band - the expected relevance bias on a listing of this size, not a burst. Read on the Google Maps place page's Reviews tab on 2026-09-03. A newest-first sort could not be applied, so the sample is in Google's relevance order. [s3] | 2/2 |
