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.
- ✗ General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — No general anaesthesia or deep sedation documented IV sedation with certified anesthesiologist offered, but described as conscious sedation: 'you remain conscious...most patients remember no discomfort afterward.'

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Reputation check 2026-10-02 on the clinic's Google listing (10 reviews read): recurring complaints yes, suspicious review patterns no. |
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic website (homepage, sitemap and service pages): no structured data found. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-24); owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-25). |
| 2026-09-25 | Checked again on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing. Updated: Google review count is now 509 (rating 4.7). |
| 2026-08-26 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. IV sedation with certified anesthesiologist offered, but described as conscious sedation: 'you remain conscious...most patients remember no discomfort afterward.' |
| 2026-08-26 | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website (live, address/phone/email unchanged) and Google Maps (4.7/498 reviews, added geo+place URL); added 1 new external source (WhatClinic, 67 reviews) beyond own site; sedation set false (IV sedation w/ anesthesiologist explicitly framed as conscious sedation); visibility scout 5 queries (present only for 'english speaking dentist Cancún'); no uncited sources found among s2/s10/sq. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against Mexico's two mapped registries (RNP for dentists, CLUES for clinics): both confirmed nationally inaccessible today before any name search could be submitted (RNP: connection refused / Akamai challenge on both public entry points; CLUES: master-file host timed out), so clinicLicense and all 7 named doctor(s) are left null, not false. |
