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.

Information Transparency
20 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] [sm] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed Five dentists named with degrees and roles: Ameerzeb Pirzada (BDS, M.Phil Dental Materials), Adnan Aslam (consultant oral & maxillofacial surgeon), Mir Hadi Durrani (consultant orthodontist), Syed Hammad Hassan (prosthodontist), Nouman Noor (consultant endodontist). [s1] [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed [s1] [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. One shows a treatment room with its chair and cabinetry; the others are patient cases, one of them watermarked Z Dental Studio Laser Teeth Whitening. The listing records who uploaded each item: 4 by the practice itself and 0 by visitors. [sm] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Thirteen individual service pages linked from the main navigation. [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Street address, mobile number, e-mail and opening hours in the site header and in an Our Address block. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | English website version The site is published in English only. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published [s1] [sm] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
9 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✓ | Prices or price ranges published Standing figures on the clinic's own pages for three services: consultation PKR 2,000 per consultant, basic scaling and polishing PKR 6,000 (deep cleaning from PKR 5,000 per quadrant), composite or amalgam fillings PKR 6,000-8,000. [s1] [s3] [s4] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Cleaning price listed Basic dental cleaning PKR 6,000; deep cleaning from PKR 5,000 per quadrant. [s3] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Filling price listed PKR 6,000-8,000 for composite and amalgam fillings. [s4] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | Crown price listed The crowns page answers the cost question by saying materials differ and the patient chooses; no figure is given. [s5] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed The dental implants page carries no figure. [s6] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Consultation price listed PKR 2,000, stated on each consultant's profile block. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | X-ray / imaging price listed No radiography fee is published on the homepage or on the treatment pages that were read. [s1] [s3] [s4] [s5] [s6] | 0/2 |
Reputation & Reviews
14.5 / 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) as of 2026-09-10 [sm] | 6/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume as of 2026-09-10 [sm] | 2.5/3 |
| ◐ | Review recency The newest of the 5 reviews readable on the clinic's own Google listing is dated 2025-12-03, 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 358 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. [sm] | 1.5/3 |
| ? | Clinic responds to reviews 12 reviews were read (6 from the last 24 months) and none has an owner reply, but fewer than 10 reviews from the last 24 months could be read, too few to record that the owner does not reply. [z-dental-studio-islamabad-deepen] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints The five lowest-rated Google reviews raise different issues (a rough dentist, a clinic called fake, a non-serious attitude and difficulty finding the clinic, spread over 2019 and 2023); 1–2★ are 1.1 % of 358 (1★ 4 / 2★ 0 / 3★ 1 / 4★ 5 / 5★ 348). [z-dental-studio-islamabad-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, 5 at four and 348 at five, summing to 358, and its weighted mean of 4.94 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 five at four. The five read are spread from July 2023 to December 2025 and two come from accounts with 86 and 12 reviews behind 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. [sm] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | Active Facebook presence The clinic's Facebook page has had no post since January 2018 and has six reviews; the clinic's website is its working channel. [z-dental-studio-islamabad-presence] [z-dental-studio-islamabad-presence-2] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Z Dental Studio Islamabad" and "Z Dental"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor (checked 2026-10-05). [z-dental-studio-islamabad-tripadvisor] [z-dental-studio-islamabad-tripadvisor-2] | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Profiles on oladoc and WhatClinic carrying the clinic's own description, its F-6 Markaz address and its dentists, among them Dr Ameerzeb Pirzada; neither has patient reviews yet. [z-dental-studio-islamabad-platforms] [z-dental-studio-islamabad-platforms-2] | 0.5/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure

Eleven to five, six days a week with Sunday closed. The qualifying half of this criterion here is the Saturday opening rather than evening hours. [sm] | 1.5/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility
