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 |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Reputation check 2026-10-02 on the clinic's Google listing (10 reviews read): suspicious review patterns no. |
| 2026-09-30 | Found the clinic's Facebook page on 2026-09-30 by a direct search; its bio names the clinic directly. |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's price, oral-surgery, implant and contact pages, plus its Google listing (newest and lowest reviews). Recorded: a published price list with cleaning, filling, crown, implant and X-ray prices; X-ray equipment; pediatric dentistry priced separately; no emergency service found; no WhatsApp or LINE; detailed procedure explanations; no TripAdvisor presence. Corrected: the clinic's price list is published on its own site. Still unverified: CBCT imaging and whether the clinic links a Facebook page. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25: neither the clinic's facility licence nor Dr. Laddawan's individual licence could be checked — the site publishes no Thai-script clinic name/licence number and gives only a first name (no surname, no Thai script) for its named dentist. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): documented as available. Own oral-surgery page: 'A general anaesthetic - where you would be asleep - can also be used, but this will only be given in a hospital' (referral, not on-site). |
