Our data

Contribution: derived analysis, downloadable dataset

  • Collected: 3 practices with a SmilesAtlas profile (orthodontists whose own website lists braces or clear aligners), joined to the NPPES registry, the Dental Board of California license roster, their Google listing and their own website. Observed: NPPES registry file 2026-09-27; Dental Board of California roster 2026-06-10; Google listings 2026-06-07; practice websites read 2026-08-24.
  • Published: 19 counts for this page; practice-level facts stay on each practice's profile and on the official sources.
  • Computed: 4 derived shares, each with its formula and arithmetic in the dataset.
  • Method: a practice is verified when all four fields pass: a dentist at the practice matched by license number and listed as active by the board, an NPI, a practice ZIP matching its Google listing, and one fact the practice publishes itself. Verified means the records match; it is not a rating. How we verify.
