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.

Summary
Long-established Guwol-dong clinic opposite Lotte Department Store at Incheon Terminal Station, staffed by seven named dentists who between them hold Ministry of Health board certifications in orthodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics and advanced general dentistry. It publishes a detailed fee table and works evenings from Monday to Thursday. Registered with HIRA as Yonsei Goun Miso Chigwa-uiwon, provider code 31544681, opened 2005-04-18.
The clinic publishes no Latin form of its own name; the Latin form here is Revised Romanization, with its first word (Yeonse in strict Revised Romanization) rendered as "Yonsei", the established spelling used by the university its dentists trained at and by the group's sister clinics' own domains. Dentists are named only in Hangul and the Latin forms alongside them are Revised Romanization, labelled as such. The clinic's own pages give the building as the Superior Building (written in Hangul) in the footer and as "the Daiso building" in the header — the same address, 501 Inha-ro, as the HIRA register. A second, separate Yonsei Goun Miso Chigwa-uiwon operates at 21 Bupyeong-daero, Bupyeong-gu under a different provider code. Coordinates come from the HIRA register, not from a Google Maps place page.

| ✓ | Prices or price ranges published A standing fee table is published site-wide, covering inlays and onlays by material, crowns by material, posts and cores, composite resin by surface, dentures, paediatric treatment, sealants and fluoride, gum treatment and scaling. [s1] | 3/3 |

Reputation & Reviews
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) Star histogram read live on 2026-09-06 from the place page: 4 five-star, 2 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star, 1 one-star. The buckets sum to 7, matching the 7 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 4.143 reproduces the published 4.1. [gmp1] | 3/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-06 from the place-page header; the star histogram sums to the same figure. [gmp1] | 0.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency Newest Google review is dated 2026-07-22 (listing read 2026-09-26). [yonsei-goun-miso-dental-incheon-gbp-2026-09-26] | 3/3 |
| ? | Clinic responds to reviews | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints None of the three visible reviews is critical; one one-star rating exists in a seven-review base and is outside the visible sample. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order. A newest-first sort was not available; a re-check on the Reviews tab returned the same three reviews, so no fresher slice is available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Histogram shape, spread of wording and dates, and reviewer-account variety show no sign of manipulation. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order. A newest-first sort was not available; a re-check on the Reviews tab returned the same three reviews, so no fresher slice is available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence Not established: the Facebook link in the clinic's site footer leads to the page of the network's Bupyeong branch (silent since August 2023), not a page of this clinic (checked 2026-10-05). [yonsei-goun-miso-dental-incheon-fb] [yonsei-goun-miso-dental-incheon-fb-2] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found via its search for "Yonsei Goun Miso Dental Clinic, Incheon" and "Yonsei Goun Miso"; the clinic's site does not link to TripAdvisor (checked 2026-10-05).

| ✓ | CBCT (3D imaging) Returned by the HIRA institution search filtered on equipment code 12 (cone-beam CT) for Incheon / dental clinic; the entry matched on the 501 Inha-ro, Namdong-gu address, distinguishing it from the same-named clinic in Bupyeong-gu. [reg2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology [s1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics The clinic's principal specialty, with two board-certified orthodontists and separate pages by indication and appliance type. [s1] [s2] | 2/2 |

Licensing & Credentials
Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.
Clinic operating licence: HIRA provider code 31544681 — Yonsei Goun Miso Dental Clinic, dental clinic, individually owned, opened 2005-04-18, registered with HIRA at Incheon, Namdong-gu, Inha-ro 501, 2nd floor (Guwol-dong). Business registration number 131-36-10077, representative Min Cheon-gi and 1 other, published by the clinic itself. (Verified live on 2026-09-04 in the HIRA register's detailed-criteria institution search (region = Incheon, type = dental clinic, institution name = 'Goun Miso', typed in Hangul): two results with the same institution name, of which the one at 501 Inha-ro, Namdong-gu matches this clinic's own address and phone; the other, at 21 Bupyeong-daero, Bupyeong-gu (provider code 31552587), is a different institution with its own website. Korea has no clinic operating-licence number separate from the HIRA provider code, and the register is queried live, so no snapshot date applies.) [reg1] [s1]

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Facebook presence re-assessed: the Facebook link on the clinic's site leads to the page of the network's Bupyeong branch, not of this clinic, so the criterion is no longer scored as met. |
| 2026-10-05 | TripAdvisor presence checked on 2026-10-05: no listing found for this clinic. |
| 2026-10-02 | Presence re-checked: presence on other review platforms — yes. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: clinic responds to reviews now unverified: with 7 Google reviews a missing owner reply shows nothing yet; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-07-22). |
| 2026-09-06 | Data gate: the canonical city query "English speaking dentist Incheon" was re-run with web search because the initial data collection had run a form narrowed to the Songdo district. aiMention_englishSpeaking was re-evaluated against the canonical run and now cites it. |
| 2026-09-06 | Checked by hand in a browser: the Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read for rating, review count, star histogram, review recency, owner replies, complaint and manipulation reading, listing website, phone, address and pin coordinates; the checks that needed a rendering browser were worked through on the clinic's own channels. |
| 2026-09-04 | Initial data collection for the Korea Dental Transparency & Trust Index: verified via misoincheon.com (homepage fee table, the medical-team, opening hours and clinic tour pages) and against the HIRA national institution register (provider code 31544681), taking care to separate this clinic from the same-named clinic in Bupyeong-gu. No public per-dentist licence search exists in South Korea, so the seven dentists' licence numbers are recorded as unverified rather than as a negative finding. Google Maps reputation fields and the map pin were not obtainable automatically and are queued for a manual browser check. |
