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.

| 2026-08-26 | Link-rot cleanup round 2 (2026-08-26): deepen-4 (zygomatic-implants page) still 404s on direct recheck; re-verified the domain root live (still documents 'IV Sedation' in the All-on-4 package) and confirmed offersSedation remains safely supported by deepen-3 (all-on-4-dentures page, live, general-anesthesia claim) alone; deepen-4 pruned as no longer cited by anything. |
| 2026-08-26 | Link-rot cleanup 2026-08-26: pruning 1 dead source(s) confirmed unreachable in the fleet external-link sweep (checked 2026-08-26) and re-confirmed dead by direct recheck where applicable. dental-design-studio-cancun-deepen-4 [https://dentaldesign-studio.com/zygomatic-dental-implants-in-cancun-mexico]: https://dentaldesign-studio.com/zygomatic-dental-implants-in-cancun-mexico (HTTP 404, rotten) |
| 2026-08-26 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): documented as available. Site: 'provides anesthesia ranging with local + oral sedatives, IV sedation, and general anesthesia'; oral surgery page: 'With general anesthesia, you will remain unconscious during the procedure.' |
| 2026-08-26 | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website (live, address/phone unchanged) and Google Maps (4.6/131 reviews, added geo+place URL); added 1 new external source (Clinictor.com directory) beyond own site + WhatClinic/Yelp already on file; sedation set true (general anesthesia explicitly documented on 2 site pages, distinct from lesser IV/oral sedation options); visibility scout 5 queries (present only for 'dental implants Cancún'); no uncited sources found among s1/s12/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 2 named doctor(s) are left null, not false. |
