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.

Reputation & Reviews
8.5 / 20
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.

| ? | No suspicious review patterns 5 of the 8 five-star reviews read come from accounts with a single review or none shown, but no burst reaches the threshold against 57 reviews on the listing, so the criterion is left unassessed (read 2026-10-02). | 0/2 |
