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 The clinic lists Sedation in its own Specialized Dentistry menu, and that page was read in full on 2026-09-11 (it had not rendered a day earlier). It is a general explainer: it sets out minimal sedation, nitrous oxide, local anaesthesia and intravenous sedation as types that exist, and nowhere states which of them this practice provides or that it puts patients to sleep. This index counts only general anaesthesia and deep sedation, so the page does not settle the criterion either way and it is left unanswered rather than read generously. [s2] [s5]
Summary
Practice in the Al-Hafeez Suites block off M.M. Alam Road in Gulberg III with three dentists on its roster - Dr Hamza Niaz Khan as practice lead, a maxillofacial surgeon and a general dentist - alongside an in-house ceramist on the technical side. It is entered in the Punjab Healthcare Commission register as Teeth & Smile Clinic at exactly that office address, holding a provisional licence, with the maxillofacial surgeon named as the responsible practitioner - and his council number joins straight through to a current PMDC dental registration. All three dentists on the roster resolve to current dental registrations. The clinic keeps late hours, publishes a Google review widget on its own front page and states it serves patients across the DHA phases; it publishes no prices.

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 Opened and read on 2026-09-10: a current site with an about page, a contact page, treatment pages and an embedded live Google review feed. Body read, not just the status code. [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed The clinic's own about page names Dr Hamza Niaz Khan, Dr Abdullah Khan and Dr Esha Chaudhary, alongside Zain ul Abideen as chief ceramist (a technician, not a dentist). [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed Each name carries a field: general and cosmetic dentist; maxillofacial surgeon; general dentist; chief ceramist. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos The images on the clinic's own Google listing were downloaded at full size and looked at on 2026-09-11. All four were uploaded by the practice. Two show the premises — a waiting room with framed certificates on the shelving, and a second interior — and two are marketing artwork built on a stock treatment-room photograph. The listing records who uploaded each item: 4 by the practice itself and 0 by visitors. [gm1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published The clinic publishes its own treatment pages, among them dental implants, braces, root canal treatment, whitening and hygiene work. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details The mobile number, two e-mail addresses, working hours and the Al-Hafeez Suites address stand on every page and agree with the Google place record, which carries +92 327 7088881 and the same office address. [s3] [gm1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version The site is written in English throughout. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published The full office-and-block address is published site-wide and matches the Punjab Healthcare Commission register entry to the office number. [s3] | 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 Checked the clinic's own channels on 2026-09-10: front page, about page, contact page and the treatment pages reachable from them. No price, no range and no fee schedule, and no prices item in the navigation. [s1] [s2] [s3] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed Scaling and polishing is offered but not priced. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed Fillings are offered but not priced. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Crown price listed No crown price published. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed The clinic's own dental-implants page, read on 2026-09-10, carries no price. [s4] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Consultation price listed No consultation fee published. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | X-ray / imaging price listed No imaging price published. [s1] | 0/2 |
Reputation & Reviews
18.5 / 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 from the clinic's Google place record on 2026-09-10: 4.9 on 197 reviews. Recorded from the place record itself and not from the review widget the clinic embeds on its own front page, which shows a different and smaller figure (5.0 on 53 reviews) and appears to be a stale or filtered feed. [gm1] | 6/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume as of 2026-09-26; previously 197 [teeth-and-smile-dental-clinic-gulberg-gbp-2026-09-26] | 2.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest of the 5 reviews readable on the clinic's own Google listing is dated 2026-07-18, read on 2026-09-11. Each review carries an exact timestamp, so the date is a reading rather than Google's rounded "months ago" label. Google shows a selection of 5 of the 197 reviews rather than the newest first, so this is a floor: the latest review is at least this recent and may well be more recent. [gm1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner replies to reviews on Google: 5 of the 10 reviews read carry an owner reply, 2 of them to reviews from the last 12 months; the latest reply is dated 2026-09-21 (to a review of 2026-09-21). [teeth-and-smile-dental-clinic-gulberg-deepen] [teeth-and-smile-dental-clinic-gulberg-gbp-2026-09-26] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints The five lowest-rated Google reviews raise different issues (high fees, a late cancellation by the clinic and a note that it is costly, with two reviews without text); 1–2★ are 1.9 % of 209 (1★ 4 / 2★ 0 / 3★ 1 / 4★ 3 / 5★ 201). [teeth-and-smile-dental-clinic-gulberg-deepen] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns The star histogram published on the clinic's own Google listing reads 4 at one star, none at two, 1 at three, 3 at four and 189 at five, summing to 197, and its weighted mean of 4.89 reproduces the rating the listing prints, so the published rating is the arithmetic of the published reviews and not a figure set by hand. Four reviews sit at one star and three at four. The five read are spread from February to July 2026, name two different dentists and describe four different treatments, and no phrase repeats between them. What this check can see is the shape of the distribution, the exact dates and the review history of the accounts; it cannot see reviews Google does not render. [gm1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The clinic links its own Facebook page, facebook.com/teethandsmilegulberg, from its site, alongside Instagram. [fb1] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Teeth and Smile Dental Clinic Lahore" and "Teeth and Smile Dental Clinic"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor (checked 2026-10-05). [teeth-and-smile-dental-clinic-gulberg-tripadvisor] [teeth-and-smile-dental-clinic-gulberg-tripadvisor-2] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms No profile of the clinic on oladoc, Marham, WhatClinic or Trustpilot (checked 2026-10-02).

Medical Infrastructure
11 / 15
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray The clinic's own pages describe dental X-ray as part of its diagnostic work. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ? | CBCT (3D imaging) No cone-beam CT is stated on the clinic's own pages. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology Dedicated dental-implants page, read on 2026-09-10. [s4] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Braces are a published treatment. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery A maxillofacial surgeon is named on the roster and extractions are a published treatment. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Pediatric dentistry The clinic's own service menu carries a "Kids Dentistry" item under Specialized Dentistry. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Emergency care The clinic's own Working Hours block publishes an emergency route beside the week: "12am - 9pm Mon - Sat" plus "Emergency Service - We're here for your dental emergencies! Sunday". [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ? | Works with international patients Nothing in the clinic's own channels documents experience with patients from abroad, although a review quoted in its own widget is from a foreign patient. [s1] | 0/2 |
Communication & Service
8.5 / 10
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
| ✓ | WhatsApp / LINE available The clinic publishes a wa.me link to +92 327 7088881 with a pre-filled enquiry message. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | English spoken The site and the roster are written in English. [s1] [s2] | 2.5/2.5 |
| ✓ | Pre-visit consultation possible The site carries a Book Appointment route and WhatsApp enquiry with a pre-filled message asking for more information. [s1] [s3] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✓ | Clear service explanations Treatments have their own explanatory pages in plain English and the about page describes the practice's approach. [s1] [s2] | 1/1 |
| ✓ | Convenient opening hours The clinic publishes 'Work Hours 12pm - 9pm' in the header of every page, an afternoon-to-evening day; the Google listing showed the practice as closing at 10 p.m. at the time of reading. The evening opening is clearly published either way; the exact week is queued for a manual browser check. [s1] [gm1] | 1.5/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility
5.5 / 10
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Pakistan", "English speaking dentist Pakistan", "dental implants Pakistan", "emergency dentist Pakistan", "Pakistan dental clinic for expats".
| ✓ | Mentioned for: best dentist Pakistan The canonical city query was run in the AI-visibility pass on 2026-09-10 and teethandsmile.pk appears in the returned top ten. [bsq1] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | Mentioned for: English speaking dentist Pakistan The canonical query was run on 2026-09-10; the clinic does not appear in the returned top ten. [bsq2] | 0/1 |
| ✓ | Mentioned for: dental implants Pakistan The canonical query was run on 2026-09-10 and the clinic's own implants page appears in the returned top ten. [bsq3] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | Mentioned for: emergency dentist Pakistan The canonical query was run on 2026-09-10; the clinic does not appear in the returned top ten. [bsq4] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | Mentioned for: Pakistan dental clinic for expats The canonical query was run on 2026-09-10; the clinic does not appear in the returned top ten. [bsq5] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | Structured data on website The pages carry schema.org JSON-LD, but only the generic WebPage, WebSite, BreadcrumbList, ImageObject and SearchAction nodes emitted by the site's SEO plugin. There is no Dentist, DentalClinic, LocalBusiness or Organization entity for the practice itself. [s1] [s2] | 0/1.5 |
| ✓ | Google indexing quality In the name-and-city search run on 2026-09-10 the clinic's own domain holds the first result and four of the first ten (front page, about, contact, implants); the rest are its own Facebook, Instagram and YouTube channels and a LinkedIn profile for its lead dentist. [giq1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Dedicated service pages Individual treatment pages, including a separate dental-implants page, rather than one combined list. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
Licensing & Credentials
Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.
Clinic operating licence: R-90732 - Teeth & Smile Clinic, registered healthcare establishment with a provisional licence (status Reg/PL), registered 2025-05-10, Punjab Healthcare Commission register of healthcare establishments, District Lahore (Found on 2026-09-10 in the whole Lahore district register pulled from the Punjab Healthcare Commission's public JSON API, matched on the address. The row reads Registration_Number R-90732, HCE_Name 'Teeth & Smile Clinic', type Dental Clinic, Private, License_Status 'Reg/PL', Registration_Date 2025-05-10, address 'office no 6 al hafeez suits, 69-b2 off mmalam road gulberg 3 lahore', responsible practitioner 'abdullah KHAN', Council_Registration_Number 22132-D - which resolves in the PMDC practitioners register to ABDULLAH KHAN, a current dental registration, and to the maxillofacial surgeon named on the clinic's own roster. The register publishes no snapshot date, so the date of the lookup is the reference date. 'Reg/PL' is registered with a provisional licence, the middle of the Commission's three tiers, and is not the full regular licence.) [reg3]

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | TripAdvisor presence checked on 2026-10-05: no listing found for this clinic. |
| 2026-10-05 | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): no repeated complaint. |
| 2026-10-02 | Presence on review sites re-read on 2026-10-02: no profile on the review platforms checked. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: review count 208 (was 197) from the Google listing on 2026-09-26; owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-21). |
| 2026-09-11 | The opening sentence of the summary was reworded. It listed the practice lead and then three more people, one of them a ceramist rather than a dentist, which made the later statement that all three dentists on the roster hold current registrations read as an arithmetic error. The roster has exactly three dentists; the sentence now says so. |
| 2026-09-11 | The clinic's own sedation page, which had not opened a day earlier, was read in full. It explains the types of sedation in general terms without saying which of them this practice provides, so the sedation criterion stays unanswered and the note now says why. |
| 2026-09-11 | Reputation review: the clinic's own Google listing was read again, this time with its star histogram, its reviews with exact dates and any replies from the practice, its published opening week and its photographs, which were downloaded at full size and looked at. On this card the review widget on the clinic's front page was measured against the live listing and found to be out of date; the age of the newest readable review was dated exactly and recorded; the practice was found not to answer reviews on its own listing; the star distribution and the readable reviews were checked for signs of manipulation and none was found; the photographs on the clinic's listing were downloaded and looked at, and they show the premises. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, about and contact pages were read; the Google place record was read automatically on both language surfaces and the discrepancy with the clinic's own embedded review widget was recorded; all three named dentists were looked up in the PMDC practitioners register; the establishment was found in the Punjab Healthcare Commission register as R-90732 and its council number joined back to the PMDC register. Review-side fields were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check. |
