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 sedation/GA info found; site mentions meals for 'inpatient procedures' but no anaesthesia detail

Every criterion below is scored from public sources. ✓ verified yes · ✗ verified no / not found · ◐ partial · ? unverified (scores 0, not a negative finding).

Licensing & Credentials

Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.

Clinic operating licence: 01***9 (KMPDC – Register of Licensed Private Health Facilities) (CORRECTED 2026-08-25 (row-attribution audit; previously recorded as 01***5). KMPDC facility register re-checked against the raw register HTML: the row whose Facility Name is exactly 'MOLARS DENTAL PRACTICE LIMITED' is register row 2737 — Registration No 01***9, Dental Centre, Level 3B, Nairobi, ACTIVE (postal 28198 00200 NAIROBI). The previously cited 01***5 came from row 2728, whose Facility Name carries a stray double space ('MOLARS DENTAL PRACTICE LIMITED') and which is otherwise identical (same postal address, type, level, county, status); because the register publishes registration numbers only in partially-masked form (first two and last digit), the string '01***5' is shared by 295 different facilities in this register — including PARKVIEW DENTAL CENTRE LIMITED, cited elsewhere in this file — so it cannot be attributed to Molars and was not relied on. Additional Molars registrations in the register: '-NAIROBI' 02***4 (Specialized Treatment Centre Level 4B, Nairobi), '-LAVINGTON' 02***8 (Dental Centre, Nairobi), and a Mombasa '-NYALI' branch 01***3 (outside scope).)
