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
San Lorenzo branch of Odex Centro Odontológico, a Paraguayan chain of seven clinics that also operates in Asunción, Luque, Mariano Roque Alonso, Ciudad del Este and Caacupé. The chain publishes eight treatment areas — endodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, aesthetic dentistry, oral rehabilitation, dental implants, dentoalveolar surgery and paediatric dentistry — and offers a free initial evaluation and treatment financing. Each branch has its own booking number; the San Lorenzo site is on Teniente Benítez between Saturio Ríos and Gaspar R. de Francia. The Google place record for this branch carries the lowest rating of the San Lorenzo cards, 3.2 from 19 reviews.
Chain branch: the display name carries the city. Four dentists are named on the chain's home page (Dra. Luisa Armoa, Dr. Braulio, Dra. Liz Ortega, Dr. Raúl Quevedo) but with no branch attribution, so they are not recorded as this branch's roster. The chain's own homepage carries a testimonial block quoting an average of 4.6/5, which does not match the Google rating for this branch; the Google figure is the one recorded. A branch URL (odex.com.py/ciudad-del-este) returns 404, so branch pages do not exist and everything comes from the single chain page.

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 odex.com.py serves a live single-page chain site; there are no per-branch pages [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✗ | Dentist names listed four dentists are named at chain level with no branch attribution; no roster is published for the San Lorenzo site [s1] | 0/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed eight treatment areas each with a short description [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Real clinic photos The chain’s website publishes photographs taken inside its own practice, including one captioned by the clinic as a dentist performing surgery at Odex, together with portraits of its dentists. [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Service list published endodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, aesthetic dentistry, oral rehabilitation, implants, dentoalveolar surgery, paediatric dentistry [s1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clear contact details branch street location and its own booking number published on the chain page [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | English website version Spanish-only site [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Address and map published street location published with a 'ver ubicación' map link; matches the Google 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 site mentions financing options and a free evaluation but publishes no prices [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 initial evaluation is advertised as free rather than priced [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) Read live from the listing on 2026-09-11: 3.3, reproduced by its own star histogram (8 one-star, 3 four-star and 9 five-star reviews average 3.25). [s5] | 1/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live from the listing on 2026-09-11: 20 reviews, one more than at the previous check, the new one at five stars. [s5] | 1/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency newest review rendered on the clinic's own Google place page is one month old (read 2026-09-10) [s5] | 3/3 |
| ✗ | Clinic responds to reviews The branch answers nothing. The listing was read twice on 2026-09-11 — eight of its 20 reviews in the reviews panel and five returned by an automated fetch, among them four of the one-star reviews — and no record from either reading carries a reply. The listing has also not been claimed by the business (it holds no photograph uploaded through a Google Business account), so there is no owner able to reply there at all. [s5] | 0/2 |
| ✗ | No recurring complaints A repeated complaint is recorded, on reviews re-read and dated to the day on 2026-09-11. Four separate accounts have left one-star reviews — dated 24 October 2024, 5 March 2025, 24 June 2026 and 13 July 2026 — and all four turn on the same thing: appointments that do not happen at the booked time, rebooking, and the front desk. The most specific of them describes arriving for an appointment, not being seen, and being moved to another day; an earlier review describes more than an hour of waiting because the appointment had never been entered. The rating histogram read the same day puts 8 of the 20 reviews at one star and three at two stars, and not one of the 20 carries a reply. This pattern is also recorded as a red flag on this card. [s5] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns the histogram 8/0/0/3/8 is polarised but the ages spread from one month to a year and the text is specific; nothing indicates manufactured reviews [s5] | 2/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence Only the chain's Facebook page was found (facebook.com/odexcentroodontologico, Asunción address); it is not this branch's own page (read 2026-10-02). [odex-centro-odontologico-san-lorenzo-deepen-7] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Odex Centro Odontologico San Lorenzo" and "Odex Centro Odontologico" (2026-10-02); the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor. [odex-centro-odontologico-san-lorenzo-deepen] [odex-centro-odontologico-san-lorenzo-deepen-2] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms No profile found on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed or Trustpilot (checked 2026-10-02).

| ✓ | Clear service explanations each of the eight treatment areas carries a short plain-language description [s1] | 1/1 |
| ? | Convenient opening hours Left unscored, although a week of hours is visible. Google shows Monday to Friday 10:00–19:00 and Saturday 09:00–14:00 for this branch (re-read 2026-09-11), which would meet the test — but it shows them on a listing the business has not claimed, and the branch publishes no hours on any channel it does control: the chain website states none. Hours on an unclaimed listing are assembled by Google from third-party and user-contributed data; the clinic has neither entered nor confirmed them, so they are reported here rather than credited to it. Recorded as unknown rather than as inconvenient hours, because nothing about the schedule has been published by the clinic itself. [s5] | 0/1.5 |
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".

Red Flags
- medium Recurring communication complaints (-3 pts) — Four separate accounts have left dated one-star reviews about appointments that did not happen as booked and about the front desk, and the branch has answered none of them. A one-star of 24 June 2026: "te va en la cita y nunca te atiende y para el colmo te reagenda para otros día" — you turn up for the appointment, are never seen, and are rebooked for another day. A one-star of 24 October 2024: "Pésima atención! Una vergüenza. La secretaria de lentes es un desastre." A one-star of 13 July 2026: "Horrible atencion y 0 compromiso por parte de todos los doctores, super caro y no hacen ni como se debe nada!" A one-star of 5 March 2025 warning other patients to look for serious places. An earlier review records more than an hour of waiting because the appointment had not been entered at all. Eight of the branch's 20 reviews sit at one star and not one of the 20 carries a reply. [s5]
- low No dentists identified anywhere (-2 pts) — No dentist names published (derived from data).
Red-flag penalty applied: -5 points (capped at -20).

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); no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed or Trustpilot. |
| 2026-09-11 | A red flag for recurring communication complaints was added after the reviews were re-read and dated to the day: four separate accounts, over twenty-one months, describing appointments that did not happen as booked and a front desk that does not answer, with no reply from the branch on any of the twenty reviews it holds. The opening-hours criterion was also moved from satisfied to unknown. The week of hours visible for this branch sits on a Google listing the business has not claimed, and the chain website publishes none: hours a clinic has neither entered nor confirmed are reported to the reader but not counted in its favour. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification: opening hours recovered from the branch's own Business Profile, and the 3.2 rating explained — four dated reviews carry the same complaint about appointments not being honoured, so recurringComplaints is now recorded as present. |
| 2026-09-10 | Card created from the chain's own site and a live Google place record for the San Lorenzo branch; MSPyBS register unreachable, licence fields left unverified. |
