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.
- ✓ General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — General anaesthesia / deep sedation documented The site publishes a dedicated general-anaesthesia page (both a Hebrew and an English/Arabic-titled version) stating patients "fall asleep" for treatment and "wake up with perfect teeth" — confirmed 2026-09-03 by reading the page directly, which meets the methodology’s stricter sleep-dentistry bar (asleep and unaware, not just conscious sedation). [s3] [s4]
Summary
General and cosmetic dentistry solo practice in the Talpiot area of Jerusalem, run by Dr. Ari Greenspan, in practice since 1989, offering same-day CEREC crowns and a documented sedation-dentistry option for anxious patients.
The card previously recorded that no clinic website existed. It does: greenspandental.com is published on the practice’s own Google Maps listing, was opened on 2026-09-02, and gives the address (101a Derech Hevron, Beit HaNatziv building, 4th floor), the clinic phone 02-679-8040, a mobile number, the e-mail ari@greenspandental.com, an English version and an Arabic section. It also publishes a dedicated page on dental treatment under general anaesthesia, which is why the sedation criterion is now recorded as met — the earlier reading rested on a WhatClinic phrase about "sedation dentistry for anxious patients" that did not say general anaesthesia, while the clinic’s own site does. Licensing: the MOH register entry is "Greenspan Arye Yosef", licence 2-8277, permanent, active, issued 24/10/2006 ("Arye" and "Ari" are the same given name); he holds no specialist certificate, consistent with the general and cosmetic scope claimed. Google Maps re-read 2026-09-02: 4.9 from 193 reviews at Hebron Rd 101 — unchanged.

Reputation & Reviews
16.5 / 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) Re-read live 2026-09-03 and reconciled against the star histogram, which sums exactly to the review count in the place header. Unchanged at 4.9. [sm] | 6/6 |

| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Histogram 186/5/1/0/1 over 193 - sums exactly to the header count, and 954/193 = 4.943 reproduces the published 4.9. The one-star and the three-star stand unremoved, dates span 1 to 11 months, wording is individual and names a second dentist at the practice (Dr Dov), and accounts hold 1 to 264 reviews. Read on the Google Maps place page's Reviews tab on 2026-09-03. The sample is in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [sm] | 2/2 |

| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (Hebrew home page and service pages, the English version and its clinic page) and its Google listing. Recorded: a genuine own-hosted portrait photo of the dentist; no prices published for any treatment; a Facebook page linked from the English site; no TripAdvisor presence; digital panoramic X-ray and 3D imaging both documented; implants placed by the dentist himself; a configured WhatsApp contact widget; an English version presenting an English-speaking dentist; in-depth plain-language guides for several procedures. Still unverified: orthodontics (a 3D-printing article describes making aligners, but no orthodontic service is listed) and documented work with international patients. |
| 2026-09-03 | Reputation pass 2026-09-03 (browser): the Google Maps place page was reopened on its Reviews tab and reviewRecency, respondsToReviews, recurringComplaints and suspiciousReviewPatterns were assessed for the first time (all four were null).
