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
Summary
Dental care cooperative (cooperativa asistencial, the same institutional model as Salto's CADO) with a central office in Paysandú and a published network of twenty-four named odontólogos working from decentralised consultorios across the city and Guichón, covering implants, orthodontics, paediatric dentistry, oral surgery and emergency care.
Institutional/cooperative provider rather than a single private practice — recorded here (as CADO was for Salto) because it operates a real, physically-located dental service open to the Paysandú public, not a professional association. Coodepa is a service cooperative, not the statutory MSP or a voluntary trade association, so it is unrelated to the AOU/Colegio distinction in our registry research. The verification pass correction: it is not a single walk-in clinic but a central office plus twenty-four decentralised consultorios, each with its own address and phone, which its own site publishes in full.

Scored against a single published rule: evening opening (closing 19:00 or later) or Saturday/Sunday opening. [s2] | 0/1.5 |

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the cooperative's convenios, especialidades and contacto pages, and its Google listing. Recorded: radiology is a documented specialty; every specialty has its own short definition; no WhatsApp contact and no online booking. The only pricing language found is 'no cost' or discounted rates tied to specific employer/union agreements, which the methodology does not count as a published price, so all price fields stay false. The Google listing shows zero reviews, so rating, recency, replies and complaint patterns are left unrecorded. Checked TripAdvisor and the national WhatClinic directory: no profile on either. |
| 2026-09-11 | Live verification in a browser: the Google listing was confirmed to carry zero public reviews and its hours to match the cooperative's own; staff and equipment photography was found on the cooperative's own Facebook page. |
| 2026-09-10 | Adversarial verification: "dentists not named" refuted — the cooperative publishes all twenty-four member odontólogos with their consultorio addresses; the street address, geo and opening hours added and the summary corrected from a single walk-in clinic to a central office plus twenty-four decentralised consultorios. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial research pass: Coodepa (Cooperativa Odontológica de Paysandú) identified via web search discovery and own-site verification. |
