Dentists in Bengaluru: which clinics ChatGPT and Gemini name
Apollo White Dental and Clove Dental are the names that keep coming back when you ask ChatGPT or Gemini for a dentist in Bengaluru: each turned up in 36 of 60 answers. Answering from memory alone, the models did not name Amaya Dental Clinic, Ridgetop Dental International or Dental Solutions even once.
A web search brings some of them in. Amaya Dental Clinic appeared in 6 of 24 answers once the models looked online, and every one of those came from Gemini. ChatGPT named it in 0 of 30. Ridgetop Dental International showed up in 4 of 24 answers with search. Archak Dental and Summit Dental Clinic never came up at all, from either model, with or without a search.

Where the answers disagree
For these clinics the two ranges do not overlap, so the difference is larger than repeated asking would explain.
With and without web search
- Amaya Dental Clinic: named in 0 of 36 answers without web search and in 6 of 24 with it.
In the models' words
Lines from the answers, verbatim apart from formatting.
If I were choosing without knowing your neighbourhood or treatment, I would start with DDC Smiles or Dental Solutions for a general assessment, and use Manipal or a specialist-led clinic for complex treatment.

How Bengaluru was measured
Each of the 18 questions went to ChatGPT and to Gemini; 12 of them were asked twice, with the model's web search off and on. A question that itself named a clinic is left out, since its answer would name that clinic by force. The clinics we tracked are the ones we chose to measure in Bengaluru and the clinics they compete with for the same patients.
Ansmeter Benchmark v2.0, methodology 2026.10, prompt library 2026.10-service-voice. The method and its limits: Methodology. The table as a file: data.csv.
We ran this measurement on our own initiative; no clinic asked for it or paid for it. If a clinic's name or website is wrong here, write to us and we will correct it.
