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.

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
16 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website Own domain resolves and returns a live clinic page in this pass (checked 2026-09-07). [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed The clinic's own site publishes "Våre tannleger": Arne Henrik Finnanger, Anna Maria Vagnild, Ingrid Valen, Ida Moltu Staurset, Fredrik Holthe, Matias Fosse Marjala, Vilde Skevik, Ane Hele Nekstad, Carl Caoile, Ida Hestnes and tannpleier Giamy Vu (read live 2026-09-07). The roster is published for the practice as a whole — the same page's footer lists two clinics, "avd. Skovgård, Grilstadvegen 1" and "avd. Elgeseter, Elgeseter Gate 31" — with no per-branch attribution, so the names are credited as published but deliberately NOT written into licensing.doctors for this branch card. [s4] | 3/3 |
| ✗ | Dentist specializations listed Verified negative: the practitioner list gives the titles tannlege / tannpleier only and states no qualification or specialisation for any named dentist, even though the practice runs a separate oral-surgery page. [s4] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos The clinic's own domain hosts a premises photograph with a clinic-specific filename (Trondheim-Tannhelse-00008.jpg), not stock imagery. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published Own /behandlinger/ page publishes a concrete treatment catalogue with individual pages (undersøkelse/recall, akutt behandling, tannbleking, Invisalign, estetisk tannbehandling, tannlegeskrekk, tannregulering, oralkirurgi, tannbehandling i narkose, henvisning). [s4] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details Street address, phone number and (where present) booking contact are published on the clinic’s own site. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | English website version No /en/ path or "English" nav link found on the homepage in this pass. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published Address confirmed on the clinic’s own site and cross-checked against a live Google Maps place lookup on 2026-09-07. [s1] [s3] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
13 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✓ | Prices or price ranges published Own permanent "Behandling / Pris" (treatment/price) NOK table on /prisliste/, read live 2026-09-07 — multiple named treatments with published prices. [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Cleaning price listed Cleaning is included in the published exam bundle in the price table. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Filling price listed "Tannfarget fylling (plast)" fra 1 190,- til 2 500,- on the clinic's own permanent price table. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Crown price listed "Krone" 8 000,- on the same price table. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed Verified negative: the clinic's own price table prices examinations, cleaning, fillings, x-ray, OPG, crowns, splints, whitening, extractions, surgery, dentures, root canals, Invisalign consultation, hourly rates and nitrous oxide — but carries no implant line. [s2] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Consultation price listed "Førstegangsundersøkelse med røntgen og tannrens" (first-time exam with x-ray and cleaning) is listed as a standing new-patient welcome price (kr 790) in the permanent price table. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | X-ray / imaging price listed X-ray is included in the published exam bundle in the price table. [s2] | 2/2 |
Reputation & Reviews
19.5 / 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) Confirmed on the live place page 2026-09-08 - the same figure the verification pass obtained automatically. Star histogram: 572 five-star, 7 four-star, 0 three-star, 1 two-star, 0 one-star; the buckets sum to 580, exactly the header count, and the weighted mean 4.983 rounds to the published 5.0. The listing is displayed as Ranheim Dental, the Business Profile name already recorded on this card. [gmpb] | 6/6 |
| ✓ | Google review volume Confirmed against the place-page header 2026-09-08; the star histogram sums to the same figure. [gmpb] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Newest Google review is dated 2026-09-23 (listing read 2026-09-26). [trondheim-tannlegesenter-ranheim-trondheim-gbp-2026-09-26] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner has replied to 7 of the 8 visible reviews. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No negative review surfaced in the visible sample and the histogram holds a single two-star and nothing below it: negative mass 1 of 580 = 0.2 per cent. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns The 5.0 on a base of 580 was flagged for a second look. The histogram is not a wall: seven four-star ratings and a two-star are present and the mean is 4.983. Visible dates run from one to seven years back with no cluster, reviewers and wording vary, and the owner answers individually. No manipulation signature. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The clinic's Facebook page (the Ranheim branch's former address, the same phone and website) posted on 17 December 2025 and carries 42 recommendations. [trondheim-tannlegesenter-ranheim-trondheim-deepen-4] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Trondheim Tannlegesenter Trondheim" and "Trondheim Tannlegesenter"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor. [trondheim-tannlegesenter-ranheim-trondheim-deepen] [trondheim-tannlegesenter-ranheim-trondheim-deepen-2] | 0/0.5 |
| ✓ | Other review platforms Legelisten.no, the Norwegian dentist review site, has a page for the practice at its address before the 2026 move, same phone: 5.0 of 5 from 20 patient reviews (newest 18 September 2026). [trondheim-tannlegesenter-ranheim-trondheim-deepen-3] | 0.5/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
9.5 / 15

| ✓ | On-site X-ray "Røntgen" 200,- and "OPG – panoramarøntgenbilde av hele kjevepartiet" 890,- are priced lines on the clinic's own price table. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | CBCT (3D imaging) Verified negative: the price table prices intraoral x-ray and OPG but no CBCT, and no treatment page mentions 3D-røntgen. [s2] [s4] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology The clinic's own aesthetics page lists implants among the treatments it provides ("tannfasetter, tannbro, implantater m.m.") and it runs a dedicated /oralkirurgi/ page. [s4] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Dedicated /tannregulering/ and /behandlinger/tannregulering/ pages, and "Invisalign konsultasjon (30 min)" 590,- is priced. [s4] [s2] | 2/2 |

| ✓ | Emergency care Dedicated /behandlinger/akutt-behandling/ page in the clinic's own catalogue. [s4] | 1.5/1.5 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Presence on review platforms checked on 2026-10-02: no TripAdvisor listing (its search and the clinic's site read); a Legelisten.no review page found; its Facebook page identified and active. |
| 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 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-23). |
| 2026-09-09 | Editorial gate: display name changed to "Trondheim Tannlegesenter (avd. Skovgård)" — the district in the previous name was not the clinic’s own. The practice calls this branch avd. Skovgård; "Ranheim Dental" is the Google Business title and stays recorded as a listing alias in the summary; and a different, unrelated business (RANHEIM TANNKLINIKK, org. 917618704, Ranheimsvegen 172) actually trades under the Ranheim name. The slug is unchanged — the address is in the 7060 postcode area Google labels Ranheim, so it is not factually wrong, and changing it would change the URL. |
| 2026-09-08 | Browser reputation pass (I-3): live Google place page opened; the 5.0 on 580 reviews examined against the histogram, date spread and owner engagement and found ordinary. Recency, owner replies and complaint reading recorded. googleMapsUrl replaced with the place URL. |
| 2026-09-07 | Adversarial verification: the research pass recorded googleRating null saying no distinct rating resolved for this listing — an independent automated lookup on 2026-09-07 returned the full place card (Ranheim Dental, Grilstadvegen 1, phone 90 90 09 09) with rating 5.0 and 580 reviews, closing that manual browser check line. Two further defects fixed: the aiVisibility pseudo-source cited a Norwegian query string ("tannlegekontor Trondheim") that the AI-visibility pass never ran, now corrected to the canonical "best dentist Trondheim"; and the research note described the practice's branches as "Jakobsli, Ranheim, Lade" whereas the clinic's own footer names exactly two — avd. Skovgård (Grilstadvegen 1, this card's address) and avd. Elgeseter. The treatments page was opened, giving a named ten-dentist roster (credited for dentistNamesListed but deliberately not written into licensing.doctors, because the roster carries no per-branch attribution), a verified service list, orthodontics, surgery, emergency care, general anaesthesia, x-ray, structured data, dedicated service pages, two further price fields, and verified negatives on implant pricing, CBCT, paediatrics and Facebook. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection: own website (own JSON-LD gives Jakobslivegen 1 as a registered address; the site is a multi-branch practice covering Jakobsli, Ranheim and Lade under one shared phone number and price list) and a live Google Maps place lookup. The only Google Business Profile resolved for this domain/phone in this pass is for the Ranheim branch (Grilstadvegen 1), whose name and address are used for this card to avoid misattributing a rating or geo pin to the wrong physical location (address+phone cross-checked, matches the shared switchboard). Rating not resolved for this specific branch in the automated pass. aiVisibility checked against the AI-visibility pass — not found in any of the four Trondheim canonical-query result lists, recorded as false throughout. Reputation and licensing left null for the reasons stated on every card in this file. |
