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.

Every criterion below is scored from public sources. ✓ verified yes · ✗ verified no / not found · ◐ partial · ? unverified (scores 0, not a negative finding).

Reputation & Reviews
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 live 2026-09-02. Re-read 2026-09-03 on the place page's Reviews tab: unchanged, and the published rating reproduces from the star histogram 24/2/0/0/0 (5*->1*). [sm] | 4/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Re-read 2026-09-03 on the place page's Reviews tab: unchanged; the star histogram 24/2/0/0/0 (5*->1*) sums to the published count. [sm] | 1/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Newest Google review is dated 2026-09-14 (listing read 2026-09-25). [al-mosawi-dental-center-manama-gbp-2026-09-25] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews 2 of the 8 visible reviews carry a published reply from the owner. Sample: 8 visible reviews, order relevance (Maps' sort control could not be operated in this browser session - four click strategies were tried), star histogram 24/2/0/0/0 (5*->1*), read 2026-09-03. [sm] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No complaint appears among the eight visible reviews, and the histogram carries no review below four stars. Sample: 8 visible reviews, order relevance (Maps' sort control could not be operated in this browser session - four click strategies were tried), star histogram 24/2/0/0/0 (5*->1*), read 2026-09-03. [sm] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns The visible reviews span eleven months to nine years - the widest date spread of any listing in the country - the wording is individual and names several different dentists (Dr. Aqeel, Dr. Quazi), and six of the eight reviewers are Local Guides holding 11 to 547 reviews. Nothing here supports a manipulation claim; 26 reviews is nonetheless a thin base. Sample: 8 visible reviews, order relevance (Maps' sort control could not be operated in this browser session - four click strategies were tried), star histogram 24/2/0/0/0 (5*->1*), read 2026-09-03. [sm] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence [s1] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Al-Mosawi Dental Center Manama" and "Al-Mosawi Dental"; the clinic has no website that could link one (checked 2026-10-05). [al-mosawi-dental-center-manama-tripadvisor] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms No profile found on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed or Hospital Examiner; its Clinic4All page and its Zavis listing only repeat Google reviews (checked 2026-10-01).
