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) — No general anaesthesia or deep sedation documented Extractions done under local anesthesia only; site's "Sleep Dentistry" branding is sleep-apnea oral appliance therapy, unrelated to sedation. [green-apple-dental-clinic-cebu-sedation]
Summary
Green Apple Dental Clinic Cebu is a multi-specialty private dental clinic at The Terraces, Ayala Center Cebu, established as one of the Philippines' first ISO-certified dental clinics. The clinic practices full digital dentistry and employs eleven named dentists covering orthodontics, oral surgery, prosthodontics, endodontics, cosmetic dentistry, pediatric dentistry, and TMJ management. Mall-based location allows extended hours aligned with Ayala Center operating times.
The clinic operates under two related websites: greenappledentalcebu.ph (Cebu-specific) and greenappledentalph.com (chain-wide). A second Cebu location exists at Mactan Newtown (Lapu-Lapu City). Stall reference appears inconsistently across sources: the official Cebu branch page shows "Garden Level, The Terraces"; ClinicFinderPH lists "Stall M215-216 Level 2, Ayala Center Cebu". No email address is published. No price list is published on the official site. Mobile number 0917-308-6615 functions as the primary contact and may double as WhatsApp. Its Google listing (read 2026-10-01) shows 4.5 from 98 reviews and daily hours 10 AM-9 PM. ISO certification year not stated.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-01 | Re-checked 2026-10-01 on the clinic's website and Google listing: X-ray taking and panoramic X-rays documented; work with foreign patients documented by testimonials from Singapore, the USA and Korea; daily hours until 9 PM confirmed; no suspicious review pattern among 98 reviews. |
| 2026-10-01 | Presence on other review platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic, Dental Departures or Bookimed, so this criterion is now no. |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all 20 pages listed in its sitemap, including service pages and the inquiry form), the Green Apple group website and the clinic's Google listing (newest and lowest-rated reviews). Recorded: no filling, crown, implant or X-ray prices published; same-day emergency care described in patient accounts; twelve dedicated service pages; a free photo-based smile assessment with recommendations on the group website; no WhatsApp link; owner replies to critical reviews; no TripAdvisor profile found. Corrected: two low-rated reviews describe poor communication about treatment, a recurring theme. Still unverified: CBCT/imaging equipment and Facebook activity level. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: website live and phone confirmed; not permanently closed. Note: the clinic's own site gives unit "G114" while its Google Maps listing (name shown as "Green Apple Dental Cebu") gives "Stall M215, Level 2" for the same Ayala Center Cebu / The Terraces address — left stored address unchanged pending clarification. Captured first Google rating 4.5 (97 reviews) and geo coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | Recorded sedation / general anaesthesia availability (informational): not documented in public sources. Extractions done under local anesthesia only; site's "Sleep Dentistry" branding is sleep-apnea oral appliance therapy, unrelated to sedation. |
| 2026-08-25 | Removed manual red flag(s) no_doctor_credentials: they asserted unpublished licensing while the underlying data was unverified (null means "not checked", not "not published"). See methodology v1.3.0. |
| 2026-08-18 | Imported from the city-tier dataset. |
