When Brisbane locals ask ChatGPT or Google AI "who is the best dentist in Brisbane?", the AI names specific dentists. We measured exactly which ones. This index is built from real AI answers, not advertising, not editorial opinion, and is re-scanned monthly.

AI assistants do not crawl vibes, they read structure: Google Business Profile categories and services, established directories, community threads, and websites that say plainly what they do and where. A practice whose site never names its services or suburbs gives the machine nothing to match against "best dentist Chermside". The fixes are usually small and fast, which is exactly what our audit measures.
See exactly which questions you're missing from, who gets recommended instead, and the top 3 fixes.
AI assistants build local recommendations from sources they can read and verify: Google Business Profile data, established directories, community discussions like Reddit, and fact-dense practice websites. Dentists that are complete and consistent across those sources get recommended; dentists that are not stay invisible regardless of how good they are.
In our June 2026 scan, dozens of Brisbane dental practices with hundreds of five-star Google reviews never appeared in any AI answer. Strong reviews are raw material, but if a practice website never names its services and suburbs in the words patients use, its Google profile is under-filled, and it is absent from the directories AI reads, the AI cannot connect the reputation to the query.
We ask ChatGPT and Google AI the real questions Brisbane locals ask, multiple samples each, from Australian locations. We record every business named in every answer. The ranking reflects only that data, practices cannot pay for a position. We re-run the scan monthly.
