Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-08-06). |
| 2026-09-17 | Re-read on 2026-09-17: the clinic's website (implantology, prosthetics, restorative, contact pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: no cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation or X-ray price published; no WhatsApp; an online appointment-request form is available; no structured data on the site. X-ray and CBCT equipment left unverified: the site has no dedicated diagnostics page and the service pages that discuss implants and restorative work do not mention imaging equipment either way. Newest Google review dated 2026-05-06. |
| 2026-08-26 | Re-verification 2026-08-26: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged. Google rating reconfirmed at 4.8; review count increased from stored 31 to 46. Captured pin coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: milardovicdental.hr/en opened directly, live and current (active team roster, booking); name/address/phone unchanged (a third-party listing found via search shows a different, apparently outdated address — the clinic's own live site confirms the stored Franje Fanceva 22b address, so no correction was made). Google Maps profile was not accessible this time — stored reputation values (4.8 / 31 reviews) not re-verified today and left unchanged. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Implants explicitly placed under local anaesthesia only |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against HZJZ NRPZZ (Nacionalni registar pružatelja zdravstvene zaštite): clinic license found (Milardović Dental D.O.O., branch at Franje Fanceva 22B) in HZJZ NRPZZ, upgrading the prior 'registry inaccessible' note; none of the four named doctors have individual private-practice registration. |
