Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-25 | Search visibility checked on 2026-09-25 for the four pending Tijuana queries: not present for "best dentist Tijuana", "English speaking dentist Tijuana", "emergency dentist Tijuana", "Tijuana dental clinic for expats". |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: The clinic's full price table, treatment-quote form and implant pages re-read; Cleaning, filling, crown, consultation and X-ray prices recorded from the price list; Panoramic/2D X-rays confirmed but no CBCT; the clinic's team includes a paediatric dentist and an orthodontist; patients in pain are seen the same day where possible; The treatment-quote page accepts an attached X-ray for a personalized quote; Structured business data present; Google 4.2 from 66 reviews; the latest visible owner reply dates from 2019; recurring complaints recorded about implant/crown work failing with unresponsive follow-up. |
| 2026-08-26 | License verification 2026-08-26 against RNP (dentist-scope registry): confirmed unreachable/non-functional today (ECONNREFUSED / 20s timeout), so no search could be executed for Dr. Edgar Montano. Clinic already carries a published clinic license + COFEPRIS number on file, so the clinicLicense lookup was skipped per instructions. No new registry matches found; existing licensing data left unchanged. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): documented as available. Offers general anesthesia as an option distinct from its conscious IV sedation |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged; captured Google rating 4.1 (64 reviews, was unset) and place URL/coordinates. Sedation research: clinic's own pre-op page distinguishes IV sedation ('not unconscious') from a separate general-anesthesia option ('procedure with IV sedation or with general anesthesia'), so general anesthesia is offered (true). |
| 2026-07-10 | Initial data collection. |
