## Per-Signal Score Table (0–5)

| # | Signal | Score | Tier | Evidence / Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | GBP completeness | 2 / 5 | Tier-2 (proxy) | Google Business Profile NOT directly inspectable (Google bot-blocked on VPS IP). Yelp Tier-2 proxy: 4058 Flying C Rd Ste 9, Cameron Park CA 95682, (530) 677-0272, hours Tue–Fri listed, photos present. Actual GBP categories/attributes/posts/Q&A not confirmed. |
| 2 | Foursquare claim status | 0 / 5 | Unverified | Foursquare search redirected to login wall (no credentials available). Claim status CANNOT be confirmed. Excluded from DOP proof. |
| 3 | Website schema | 3 / 5 | Tier-1 (observed) | Site DOES publish `Dentist` + `Organization` JSON-LD with `telephone` (530-677-0272), `address` (4058 Flying C Rd #9, Cameron Park CA 95682), and `openingHours` (Mon–Thu 08:00–17:00, Fri 08:30–15:00). **BUT** the entity `name` field is the generic SEO string `"Dentist in Cameron Park, CA"` — NOT the real brand "Cameron Park Family Dentistry." Also: no `Service` entities (e.g., Invisalign, cleaning) with `areaServed`, and no `sameAs`/aggregateRating. |
| 4 | AI-answer presence | 3 / 5 | Tier-2 (proxy) | Surfaced in 2 of 3 high-intent queries (Invisalign CP #2, dentist near me CP #3); absent on the "best family dentist El Dorado Hills" query (geo mismatch — practice is Cameron Park, not EDH). |
| 5 | Citation consistency (NAP) | 4 / 5 | Tier-1 + Tier-2 | Phone `530-677-0272` consistent (site schema + Yelp). Address `4058 Flying C Rd #9 / Ste 9, Cameron Park CA 95682` consistent (site schema + Yelp). Name consistent in visible listings (site = "Cameron Park Family Dentistry"; Yelp display title = "CAMERON PARK FAMILY DENTISTRY"). Minor cosmetic flag: Yelp URL slug is a legacy `roberts-gerald-m-jr-dds-...` — old-owner slug retained after rebrand; visible name now matches, so not a hard conflict but a citation-hygiene item. |

## Concrete Gaps (Tier-1 / Tier-2 observed, with specifics)

1. **Schema `name` is a generic SEO string, not the brand (Tier-1, OBSERVED).** The `Dentist`/`Organization` JSON-LD sets `"name": "Dentist in Cameron Park, CA"` instead of `"Cameron Park Family Dentistry"`. AI engines ingesting this entity associate the structured data with a keyword phrase, not the actual business name — weakening entity–brand binding and potentially fragmenting the knowledge graph. Fix: set `name` to the real brand and add `sameAs` to the practice's profiles.
2. **Schema lacks Service/areaServed entities (Tier-1, OBSERVED).** Despite ranking for "Invisalign Cameron Park," the JSON-LD contains no `Service` (or `MedicalProcedure`) nodes for Invisalign/cleanings/etc. and no `areaServed`. This limits how richly AI answers can describe the practice's services and service area.
3. **GBP & Foursquare not directly verifiable (environment limit).** Google bot-blocked; Foursquare login wall. Yelp (Tier-2) indicates a live, reasonably complete listing, but GBP categories/attributes/posts/Q&A and Foursquare claim status are unconfirmed.

---

## Verdict
**Better structured than the plumber, but the schema name is wrong.** Cameron Park Family Dentistry already publishes `Dentist` JSON-LD with real phone/address/hours and ranks for 2/3 high-intent queries — a solid baseline. The fixable leak is the **generic `name` field** ("Dentist in Cameron Park, CA") which fails to assert the actual brand to AI engines, plus the **missing Service/areaServed** detail. Combined with unverified GBP/Foursquare, the practice is partially visible to AI answers but not optimally represented. Priority actions: (1) correct schema `name` to "Cameron Park Family Dentistry" + add `sameAs`; (2) add `Service`/`areaServed` entities for Invisalign and core services; (3) claim/verify Foursquare and confirm GBP completeness manually; (4) clean up the legacy Yelp slug reference.

## Honesty Note — What Was NOT Verified
- **Live Google Business Profile** could not be inspected: Google returned a bot-detection block on this environment's IP. GBP completeness score is inferred from a Tier-2 Yelp proxy, not direct observation.
- **Foursquare claim status** could not be verified: Foursquare required authentication (login wall); no credentials available. Scored 0 / excluded from proof — NOT counted as a vendor self-report.
- **True ChatGPT / Perplexity answers** were not captured (no LLM-answer tool). "AI-answer presence" is a web-search-result proxy only.
- **Bing** was attempted as a GBP proxy but rendered inconsistently and is not treated as reliable evidence here.
- NAP cross-checked against the business's own site + one independent directory (Yelp) only; Facebook, BBB, and additional industry directories were not exhaustively enumerated.
