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 No general anaesthesia/deep sedation info found on site or elsewhere.
Summary
English-language medical-tourism dental service in Medellín focused on foreign patients, offering implants, crowns/bridges, veneers, Invisalign, whitening and cleaning plus travel logistics support.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-08-26 | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website (live), contacts, Google reputation (4.7/31, listing titled after lead dentist Dr. Mejía) and operating status (open); added geo + Maps URL; added 1 new external source (WhatClinic directory) beyond Google Maps; visibility scout 5 queries run (present for englishSpeaking only); both existing sources already cited, none uncited to triage. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against REPS: no separate habilitación found under 'Medellin Dental Solutions'; own site has no license number either. Strong circumstantial evidence (identical address/phone to Clínica Ártica S.A.S., which is REPS-habilitated) indicates this is the same clinic under an expat-facing brand rather than an unlicensed operation — recorded as null, not false. |
