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 or deep sedation info found on website or third-party listings.

Reputation & Reviews
8 / 20
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Other review platforms corrected to none: the CautMedic page is an unclaimed entry built from public data with no reviews, and the clinic has no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures or Trustpilot (checked 2026-10-02). |
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-02 in 2 review orders (9 distinct reviews, dated 2025-05-21 to 2026-09-28; 4.8 from 1091): owner replies true. |
| 2026-10-01 | Re-read the clinic's Google listing, including its lowest-rated reviews, on 2026-10-01: recurring complaints corrected to present, as several low ratings describe being pushed into costly, unnecessary treatment; the earlier value rested on search results. The clinic's Google listing link was added. |
| 2026-09-10 | Name-verification pass 2026-09-10: Dr. Cristina Obreja and Dr. Alina Grigore (the clinic's founder and medical director) confirmed via the own-site "Despre noi" page, not fetched in the original check (homepage only). Dr. Dan Andrei and Dr. Eduard Lipan, the other two no-match doctors on this card, are not on this leadership-only page either, but are already independently confirmed on record — Dan Andrei via CMSR registry (license 12912487) and Eduard Lipan via both CMSR registry (Nr Registru 01491854) and the recomanddentist.ro aggregator — so no further action was taken for them; this is a coverage gap in the automated re-scan, not a data gap. License values left exactly as on record. |
| 2026-09-10 | Eduard Lipan confirmed independently via CMSR national dentist registry (active, CMS Bucuresti) — own site (Brasov branch page + corporate despre-noi) did not list him by name. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verified live facts (website, contacts, operating status, Google reputation): website https://www.lifedentalspa.ro/en/brasov/ live, address (159 Lunga Street / Strada Lunga 159, Brasov) and phone +40 318 282 274 confirmed unchanged. No Google Maps link was found embedded on the site; Google rating/review count remain unset. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against CMSR (Colegiul Medicilor Stomatologi din Romania, cmsr.ro/membri2): 1 doctor confirmed active in the CMSR register; 3 doctors not matched / unverifiable. Romania has no searchable clinic/establishment registry, so clinic-level licensing was not checked. |
| 2026-08-18 | Imported from the city-tier dataset. |
