General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-08-26 | License verification 2026-08-26: RNPI dentist registry unreachable (connection refused, re-confirmed via fetch and live browser); institutional accreditation registry searched for 'Clinica Dental Sonrie' with no match but does not cover ordinary licensed clinics. All entries null. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Conscious sedation explicitly described as awake, can hear/see surroundings. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website and address unchanged; Google review count increased from 271 to 297, first-time rating captured at 4.8. Note: the clinic's Google Maps card displays phone +56 2 3220 6090, which differs from the stored/website-confirmed +56 2 2205 1816 -- not applied as a correction since the clinic's own site still lists the stored number; flagging for manual review. |
