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
20 / 20
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
Price Transparency
0 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
Reputation & Reviews

Licensing & Credentials
Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.
Clinic operating licence: ERS 18740/2020 | SRER 146782 (Registry: ERS (Entidade Reguladora da Saúde). Not found via ERS www2.ers.pt name search (tried 'Advanced Implantology', 'AIC'; a third variant 'Implantology' matched only an unrelated clinic 'EIC European Implantology Center'). FOUND instead self-published on the clinic's own site: footer of aicporto.pt shows two registration lines identically twice: 'ERS 18740/2020 | SRER 146782' and 'ERS 26968/2026 | SRER 175479', plus 'Diretor Clinico: Dr Tiago Moreira OMD 12767' and 'Diretor Clinico Adjunto: Dr. Paulo Moreira OMD 11700' -- note these clinical-director names differ from the clinic's roster in clinics.json (Dr. Andrea Rocha / Dr. Marcelo Rocha), suggesting the record's doctor list may be outdated. 2026-08-25.)

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-05: the DocDental page cited before only reproduces Google reviews, and no profile of the clinic was found on Doctoralia, WhatClinic, Trustpilot or Dental Departures; changed from yes to no. |
| 2026-09-24 | Search visibility checked on 2026-09-24 for five Porto, Portugal queries — "best dentist Porto, Portugal", "English speaking dentist Porto, Portugal", "dental implants Porto, Portugal", "emergency dentist Porto, Portugal" and "Porto, Portugal dental clinic for expats": not present for "best dentist Porto, Portugal", "English speaking dentist Porto, Portugal", "dental implants Porto, Portugal", "emergency dentist Porto, Portugal" and "Porto, Portugal dental clinic for expats". |
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's website (services, team, contact and booking pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: orthodontics offered, no pediatric dentistry, no emergency wording, an online consultation-request form, structured business data on the site, a Facebook link, and no TripAdvisor listing. Corrected: opening hours are Monday to Friday until 18:00 with weekends closed, so the convenient-hours criterion is not met. Google listing now shows 87 reviews (4.9), newest 2026-09-15, with owner replies and no recurring complaint theme. Still unverified: X-ray/CBCT equipment (not described on the site). |
| 2026-08-26 | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 1 dead source(s) confirmed unreachable in an external-link check (checked 2026-08-26) and re-confirmed dead by direct recheck where applicable. s2 [https://aicporto.com/aic-english.html]: https://aicporto.com/aic-english.html (HTTP 404, rotten) |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against ERS (clinic) and OMD (doctors): clinic license FOUND self-published on aicporto.pt (ERS 18740/2020 | SRER 146782, and a second pair ERS 26968/2026 | SRER 175479) after ERS registry name search came up empty on 2 variants; both named doctors found registered with OMD by name/district match (Andrea/Andreia spelling variant noted for one). |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website, name and phone; captured first Google rating 4.9 (85 reviews); corrected postal code to 4050-070 (was 4050-107 on file); added geo coordinates. |
