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.

Summary
Dental and orthodontic centre in Al Ain's Town Center, part of a two-branch group with a second location in Abu Dhabi. The group's team page names eleven dentists covering general dentistry, prosthodontics, oral surgery, orthodontics, periodontics with implant surgery, endodontics and paediatric dentistry. Consultation prices are published (about 75 AED general, about 150 AED specialist).
The site publishes one chain-wide team page and one chain-wide service list, with no branch attribution on either, and much of the service copy is written for the Abu Dhabi branch; service and staffing claims on this Al Ain card therefore rest on group-level statements. The team page names eleven dentists, of whom six are recorded here. The site also publishes an MOH advertising-approval code, which is a marketing permit, not a facility licence.
