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
Shopping-centre practice inside Pinedo Shopping on Avenida Mariscal López, open Monday to Saturday 09:00-19:00 and reachable through a WhatsApp channel that the clinic says is answered around the clock by a digital assistant. Six treatment areas are published: orthodontics and orthopaedics, dental implants, aesthetic dentistry, general dentistry, paediatric dentistry, and surgery with endodontics. The site runs a standing welcome offer of a full dental evaluation for new patients from ₲60,000 with a monthly cap on places. No dentist is named anywhere on the site.
The site states 5.0 in Google with more than 50 reviews; the live place record on the same day shows 5.0 from 63 reviews, so the claim matches the platform. The ₲60,000 figure is presented as a limited welcome offer with monthly quotas, so it is treated as a promotion rather than a published consultation price.

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
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website dentalsafe.com.py serves a full single-page site with services, location and booking sections [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✗ | Dentist names listed the site refers to 'nuestro equipo profesional' but names no dentist [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed six treatment areas listed under 'Especialidades' [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos The clinic’s website leads with a photograph of its own dentist explaining an X-ray to a patient in its consulting room, captioned by the clinic itself. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published orthodontics and orthopaedics, implants, aesthetic dentistry, general dentistry, paediatric dentistry, surgery and endodontics [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details unit number inside the shopping centre, phone/WhatsApp, opening hours and a booking form [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | English website version Spanish-only site [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published address with the shopping-centre unit number plus a Google Maps link; matches the place record [s1] [s2] | 2/2 |
Price Transparency
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published the only figure is a limited-quota welcome offer for new patients; no standing price list or ranges [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✗ | Cleaning price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Filling price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Crown price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Implant price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | Consultation price listed the ₲60,000 evaluation is a new-patient promotion with monthly quotas, not a standing consultation price [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | X-ray / imaging price listed [s1] | 0/2 |
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) as of 2026-09-10 [s2] [s6] | 6/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Confirmed live on the listing: 63 reviews, with a star histogram that puts all 63 of them at five stars. [s2] [s6] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Every one of the eight reviews the listing renders was left two months ago. [s6] | 3/3 |
| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews The clinic does not answer reviews. The listing was read twice on 2026-09-11 — eight of its 63 reviews in the reviews panel and five returned by an automated fetch — and no record from either reading carries a reply. The listing is one the clinic controls: all four of its photographs were uploaded through its own Google Business account. The absence of replies is therefore a choice rather than a technical obstacle. [s6] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints There is no complaint pattern to find: the star histogram places all 63 reviews at five stars, with none at any lower rating, so the threshold of several independent reviewers reporting the same problem cannot be reached. [s6] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | No suspicious review patterns A burst of five-star reviews is recorded, on three separate automated readings of the listing taken on 2026-09-11 which each returned the identical five records. All five are dated the same calendar day, 9 July 2026 — the exact dates come from the records themselves, not from the rounded "2 months ago" the listing displays — all five are five-star, and their authors' accounts carry one, two, two, one and four reviews in total. The whole 63-review base sits at five stars with nothing at any other rating, and the clinic was running a priced monthly-instalment offer at the time. The criterion names these signals: bursts of five-star reviews and reviewer accounts with a single review. Two caveats are stated rather than hidden: the wording of the five is individual rather than templated, sharing only the ordinary courtesy phrase "excelente atención", and the listing renders only those five of the 63, so this describes what can be read and not the whole base. No claim is made about who produced the reviews. For contrast, of the forty-one clinics in this directory and its Uruguayan counterpart whose listings were read the same way, this is the only one whose readable reviews all fall on a single day; every other multi-review listing spreads across months or years. [s6] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence facebook.com/dentalsafepy is an active clinic page [s3] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Dental Safe San Lorenzo" and "Dental Safe" (2026-10-02); the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor. [dental-safe-san-lorenzo-deepen] [dental-safe-san-lorenzo-deepen-2] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms No profile found on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed or Trustpilot (checked 2026-10-01). [dental-safe-san-lorenzo-platforms] [dental-safe-san-lorenzo-platforms-2] [dental-safe-san-lorenzo-platforms-3] [dental-safe-san-lorenzo-platforms-4] | 0/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ? | On-site X-ray | 0/2 |
| ? | CBCT (3D imaging) | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology implants listed among the six published areas [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics orthodontics and orthopaedics listed [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Oral surgery 'cirugía y endodoncia' listed [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Pediatric dentistry odontopediatría listed [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✗ | Emergency care no emergency service among the published areas; the round-the-clock claim covers WhatsApp answering only [s1] | 0/1.5 |
| ? | Works with international patients | 0/2 |
Communication & Service
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
| ✓ | WhatsApp / LINE available WhatsApp is the clinic's primary published channel [s1] | 2/2 |
| ? | Response speed | 0/1.5 |
| ? | English spoken | 0/2.5 |
| ✓ | Pre-visit consultation possible booking form that hands over to WhatsApp with the enquiry pre-filled [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ✗ | Clear service explanations the specialities are listed by name only, with no per-treatment explanation [s1] | 0/1 |
| ✓ | Convenient opening hours Both of the clinic's own channels publish a week, and both meet the test. Its website gives Monday to Saturday 09:00–19:00 inside a shopping centre with parking; its own Google Business Profile, read 2026-09-11, gives Monday to Friday 10:00–20:00 and Saturday 09:00–13:00. The two differ by an hour at each end of the weekday and by the length of the Saturday; the difference is disclosed here rather than resolved, and either reading gives evening opening and a Saturday. Scored against a single published rule: evening opening (closing 19:00 or later) or Saturday/Sunday opening. [s1] | 1.5/1.5 |
AI & Search Visibility
Whether the clinic is discoverable when patients search - including via AI assistants. Checked with fixed queries: "best dentist Paraguay", "English speaking dentist Paraguay", "dental implants Paraguay", "emergency dentist Paraguay", "Paraguay dental clinic for expats".

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Presence re-checked on 2026-10-02: no TripAdvisor listing (two searches of its index and the clinic's site). |
| 2026-10-01 | Presence on other review platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures or Bookimed, so this criterion is now no. |
| 2026-09-11 | The review history is now recorded as showing a burst of five-star reviews. The question had been left open because the listing displays only a rounded "2 months ago" for each review, which cannot establish a cluster. Three separate automated readings on 2026-09-11 returned the identical five records with their exact dates, and all five fall on one calendar day, 9 July 2026, with author accounts carrying one to four reviews each, against a 63-review base holding nothing but five-star ratings. This is the only listing of the forty-one read this way whose readable reviews share a single date. The derived red flag follows from the recorded value; the wording of the reviews is individual rather than templated, and no claim is made about who produced them. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification: the 5.0 rating was re-confirmed in four further requests but the review count did not re-render in any of them, so it was left as first recorded, together with the unresolved question of whether the 63 reviews cluster in time. |
| 2026-09-10 | Card created from the clinic's own site and a live Google place record; MSPyBS register unreachable, licence fields left unverified. |
