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 Conscious sedation only: 'anestesia sin aguja y sedación consciente'; no general anaesthesia documented [s2]

| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's Google listing was read in full; the clinic's own website (dentica.com.co) returned a server error on every attempt today and could not be read. Its link page (the website listed on its Google profile) confirmed WhatsApp contact for Spanish and English speakers, an emergency dental care service and a booking link for an assessment, but carried no prices. Corrected: the newest Google review is within the past 3 months. Recorded: owner replies to all sampled reviews including critical ones; recurring complaints about wait times despite a scheduled appointment. Not listed on TripAdvisor. Prices, photos and structured data remain unverified until the website is back online. |

Google Maps was not reachable — no browser was available, and a plain page fetch cannot render Maps' JS-heavy pages — so googleRating/reviewCount/geo could not be re-verified and are left unchanged. |
