Fact-Checking Policy

Every claim of fact is verified

Statistics, prices, treatment durations, contraindications, and clinical claims are checked against a primary source before publication and re-verified during scheduled reviews.

Preferred sources

• Peer-reviewed journals indexed on PubMed
• Cochrane systematic reviews
• Clinical guidelines from AAO, ADA, FDI, WHO
• Government registries (DCI, MoHFW, IRDAI)

Sources we do not treat as fact

• Clinic or manufacturer marketing material
• Anonymous forum posts or press releases without a primary source
• AI-generated content that is not human-verified

Pricing verification

City-wise price ranges are compiled from consultation quotes with verified orthodontists and reviewed quarterly.
