General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

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 Implants documented as local anaesthesia with conscious sedation in some cases only; patient not asleep. [clinica-dental-rossell-carol-sedation]

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's full website (30 pages: treatments including oral surgery, pediatric orthodontics, implants, team, history, contact) and its Google listing. Recorded: genuine own-hosted team and facility photos, including the X-ray room; named dentists with specialities and COEC numbers on the team page; a receptionist who speaks English; 3D CT scanning for implant planning; a dedicated oral surgery service and pediatric orthodontics, both corroborated by Google Business categories; a WhatsApp contact; hours running to 19:00 or later on three weekdays; Dentist/Organization structured data sitewide; Google rating 4.9 from 47 reviews (up from 38), newest 2026-09-21, with consistent owner replies and a single low review with no repeated theme; no emergency/same-day service documented across the full site or its Google categories. Still unverified: international-patient services (no clinic statement found, no English site version), and TripAdvisor presence (not found in a name search, though inconclusive on its own). |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25: clinic's own site publishes a health registry number in its footer (Registro Sanitario E08684921) — REGCESS itself could not be queried (server errors) so this could not be cross-checked against it, but is recorded as found per the clinic's own publication. GuiaDentistas (Barcelona province) shows an active colegiado number for Dr. Joan Rossell Capell (second surname unconfirmed, registry field blank). |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Implants documented as local anaesthesia with conscious sedation in some cases only; patient not asleep. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged, operating status open; Google rating changed from stored 5.0/34 to 4.9/38; captured place URL and geo coordinates; sedation research: own site documents implants performed with local anaesthesia and, in some cases, conscious sedation only — not sleep dentistry. |
| 2026-07-10 | Initial data collection. |
