Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): no repeated complaint; no sign of manipulated reviews. |
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic's own website (homepage, robots.txt, sitemap and service pages) for site structure: no business structured data. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against RNP and CLUES: both confirmed nationally inaccessible today, and the clinic's own site (whitecoast.com.mx) publishes no cédula numbers for its 2 named dentists, so clinicLicense and both doctors are left null, not false. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. IV conscious sedation offered for All-on-4 package; patient stays conscious, not asleep |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live and phone unchanged; Google Maps lists address as Golf Drive 308-Mz 19 Lt 1 (was Paseo Tulum) so corrected address; recorded first Google rating 5.0 (57 reviews); sedation research found only IV conscious sedation (not general anaesthesia) on their site. |
