What AI tells people about you

Moriarty Dental is a dentist practice now located at 153 Innes Rd, St Albans, Christchurch, with on-site parking and easy access. The clinic relocated from central city and continues to serve existing and new clients. It describes itself as welcoming and accessible, offering general dental care from Tom Moriarty and staff in a neighbourhood setting.

Moriarty Dental is a dental practice now based at 153 Innes Rd, on the corner of Rutland St in St Albans, Christchurch. The clinic relocated after the planned demolition of its previous central city premises and highlights ample on-site carparking and easy access at the new address.

The practice provides general dental services under Tom Moriarty, with contact and appointment details listed on its website. Review themes indicate the practice offers routine treatments such as tooth repairs, extractions and other common dental procedures, and that online booking is available.

Customers commonly report clear communication, a friendly chair-side manner and efficient clinical work. Reviews also note affordability for students and helpful, well-priced care, while a small number of recent reviews raise concerns about follow-up and difficulty obtaining records or appointment confirmations.

Locally, Moriarty Dental presents as a neighbourhood dental clinic focused on accessible, routine dental care from an established practitioner. The relocated premises, on-site parking and online booking are practical features for patients in St Albans and nearby Christchurch suburbs.

Your Google listing

Moriarty Dental shows solid basics on Google Business, with important details present and a decent health score. The overall health score is 4.7 out of 10, indicating room for improvement but a stable profile. Key strengths include a claimed listing, a visible business title, a working phone number, and a website link that directs customers to learn more.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Photos on the listingYou have no photos on your listing, or close to none, so a customer scrolling past sees a blank where every other business shows their work.
  • 2
    LogoYour listing has no logo, so in a list of local results yours is the one with a blank space where every competitor has a mark.
  • 3
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    Star ratingYour rating sits well below what customers here are used to seeing, and it is the first number they compare when two businesses look otherwise equal.
  • 3
    Response rateYou have replied to a small share of your reviews, so most customers reading your page still see feedback about you with no voice from you anywhere on it.

Where you show up on the map

Moriarty Dental shows a low overall Google Maps health score of 1.5 out of 10, indicating limited visibility overall but some presence. Top opportunities focus on improving aggregate maps results and building borough presence beyond the bottom quartile. Key top keywords show strength in "dental clinic in st albans" and related terms, suggesting value in expanding rankings in nearby suburbs.

Strengths

    Maps visibility across the city groupYou appear in a handful of Maps searches across the suburbs around you, far fewer than most businesses here.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches less often than half your suburb, so on a search from nearby you sit below businesses a customer would otherwise treat as equal.

Where customers find you

Moriarty Dental shows above-average health for social presence, with standout trust on Facebook and a solid LinkedIn presence. The biggest finding is the absence of active profiles on Instagram, TikTok, Yellow Directory, LinkedIn Company (beyond personal), and Yellow Profile, which limits local reach and trust signals among new clients.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.
  • ✓
    Healthpoint ListingWe can see your Healthpoint Listing listing (https://healthpoint.co.nz/moriarty-dental) found via: Google search results.
  • ✓
    Dentist NZ ListingWe can see your Dentist NZ Listing listing (https://dentist.co.nz/moriarty-dental%E2%80%8B) found via: Google search results.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    Yellow ProfileWe could not find an active Yellow Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    A street addressA street address sits in your page details, so someone deciding between you and a business two suburbs over can see which of you is closer.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    People following your pageFewer people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post reaches people who already know you rather than anyone still deciding.
  • 2
    A page address you choseYour page address is one Facebook generated rather than one you chose - your business name with a long number bolted on, or just the number.
  • 3
    A phone numberNo phone number is published on your Facebook page, so someone who found you there and wants to ring has to go hunting elsewhere or send a message and wait.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Moriarty Dental shows an average on-page SEO health (5.3/10). Strengths include a valid favicon, a clear title tag, an H1 tag, a relevant meta description and no frames. The score indicates room for improvement, particularly in meta description availability, title tag length, content depth, and text-to-page size balance.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain HealthYour site answers cleanly over a secure connection, so a customer clicking through from Google lands where they expect with nothing in the way.
  • ✓
    Domain UniquenessYour web address is yours alone, so everything your site earns - links, mentions, search standing - accumulates under your name and stays with the business.
  • ✓
    FaviconThe tab your site opens in carries your own icon, so a customer with a dozen tabs going can find their way back to you by sight.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.
  • 2
    The shape of your link profileYour links are piled onto a small number of sites for a profile this size, so they are doing less for you than the count suggests.
  • 3
    Separate sites linking to youFewer separate websites link to you than half the businesses here, which means when someone searches for what you do, the businesses with a longer list of vouchers are the ones on the page they actually read.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Moriarty Dental's current hours match several high-demand windows, notably mid-morning and early afternoon on Tuesday and mid-morning Wednesday. However, several Friday mid-morning and early-afternoon peaks are missed when the clinic is closed. There are no open hours during low-demand windows, so no obvious waste. Adjusting a Friday late-morning to early-afternoon shift could capture unmet local demand and improve temporal alignment.
