Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents a professional dental practice website with clear service offerings (implants, Invisalign, cosmetic bonding, dentures, tooth whitening) and a structured treatment framework (Assess, Prevent, Restore, Revitalise, Replace, Maintain). Contact details include a UK phone number and a single domain-owned email address. No login forms, countdown timers, or push-notification spam detected.

Infrastructure

SSL certificate is valid (Let's Encrypt, 80 days to expiry). Hosting IP 77.72.2.36 has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. The domain uses privacy-protected WHOIS registration through Krystal Hosting Ltd. External resources loaded are legitimate (Google, CareStack appointment system, CDN services).

Domain History

Registered 493 days ago (approximately early 2025). The practice announced its opening through local Facebook and Instagram groups in late 2025, positioning itself as a new independent private dental clinic offering high-quality care in a calm environment.

Web Reputation

The business is verified as active with Companies House and holds current CQC registration for treatment of disease/disorder/injury and surgical procedures.

Risk Factors
2
  • New practice with no patient reviews or ratings on major platforms yet — typical for a clinic that opened in late 2025.
  • Privacy-protected WHOIS registration, though this is common for small businesses and does not indicate fraud.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on dentalbarn.co.uk and not a lookalike like d-entalbarn.co.uk.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on dentalbarn.co.uk. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • dentalbarn.co.uk passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 85/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. dentalbarn.co.uk presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YR2, expiring in 80 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • dentalbarn.co.uk is 1.4 years old, registered on 2/2/2025 through Krystal Hosting Ltd. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 71 antivirus engines in our malware network report dentalbarn.co.uk as clean.
  • No. dentalbarn.co.uk is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • dentalbarn.co.uk resolves to an IP operated by Krystal Hosting Ltd in GB (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 11, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around dentalbarn.co.uk have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
