Verification Standards

How we audit credentials, inspect safety protocols, and verify dental specialists.

The 3-Tier ClinicRanks Audit

1

MDS Postgraduate Verification

We verify that the specialist holds a post-graduate Master of Dental Surgery (MDS) degree in their respective clinical specialty from a recognized college or university. General dentists (BDS only) do not qualify for specialist listing.

  • Confirmation of university graduation logs and degree certificate.
  • Verification of college recognition by the government dental bodies.
2

National Dental Commission (NDC) Match

All registered clinicians are verified against the National Dental Commission (NDC) and respective State Dental Council registries.

  • Active state council license verification.
  • Cross-reference registration number (e.g. MDS reg number) on official portals.
  • Audit to confirm zero history of malpractice penalties or license suspensions.
3

Clinical Sterilization & Safety Audit

A clinic can only be featured if it complies with international standards of patient safety. We perform physical or documentation-verified checks of:

  • Weekly biological spore test logs demonstrating autoclave sterility.
  • Use of Class B fractionated vacuum autoclaves.
  • Waterline testing logs showing no bacterial biofilm.
  • Use of chemical indicator tape in sealed instrument pouches.

Passed Audits Guarantee

We do not accept payments to fast-track or bypass audits. If a featured clinic fails a safety audit during routine checks, their verification status is suspended immediately.
