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) — Not verified Site lists 'Sedation Dentistry' and 'Sleep Dentistry for kids' categories but gives no clear GA/deep-sedation detail; phrasing ('asleep or at least...sleepy') is ambiguous.
