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.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-25 | Search visibility checked on 2026-09-25 for the five pending Monterrey queries: not present for "best dentist Monterrey", "English speaking dentist Monterrey", "dental implants Monterrey", "emergency dentist Monterrey", "Monterrey dental clinic for expats". |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (a single rich page with full JSON-LD) and its Google listing across three review sortings. Recorded: the site is live with four named specialists, genuine facility and team photos, consistent contact details, a Spanish/English/Japanese language toggle, on-site digital X-ray (tomography referred out), orthodontics, priority same-day care for acute pain, a bilingual team, a paid online consultation option, and detailed Dentist/MedicalBusiness structured data. Recorded a recurring pattern of post-treatment pain in two independent reviews. Corrected: an online-consultation price is in fact published (previously marked unpublished). Pediatric dentistry and TripAdvisor presence are absent; services sit on one page rather than dedicated URLs. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against CLUES: registry's master-file download timed out and it has no search form, so this clinic's license could not be found or ruled false; recorded null. No named doctors to check against RNP. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: found and confirmed the clinic's website (dentalsantaengracia.com, previously unset) and phone +52 81 8218 0494 (previously unset), both matching the Google Maps profile at the stored address. Captured Google rating 5.0 (250 reviews) and Maps URL/geo coordinates (none previously on file). |
