General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation
Whether the clinic documents treatment under general anaesthesia or deep / twilight sedation — "sleep dentistry", where the patient is asleep and unaware (does not feel, see, or hear the procedure). Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: every page in the clinic's page sitemap (home, about, team, service, X-ray, technology, sedation, whitening and promotions pages), and its Google listing. Recorded: a dedicated X-ray service page; oral surgery offered; no WhatsApp link; a general contact form with no booking feature; no business-entity structured data on the site; no prices published anywhere, including on the site's promotions page. Google listing: newest review 2026-09-23; two independent, detailed reviews describe the clinic's booking system not honoring a pre-made appointment; no signs of manipulated reviews. Not found: a TripAdvisor profile. Still unverified: CBCT (the site's technology page has no content yet) and whether the listing responds to reviews (no replies seen on a 10-review sample out of 164 total). |

Site lists 'Sedation Machine' under technology with no depth detail - recorded null in the sedation file. Cited previously-uncited s2 (PlacidWay) and s3 (smilejet.app) under onOtherPlatforms.
