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.

Summary
TerraDent is a private dental clinic in the Botanica district of Chișinău, operating Monday to Friday until 20:00 and on Saturdays. The clinic publishes a detailed price list in MDL and EUR covering consultations, prophylaxis, fillings, crowns, and implants from multiple systems. The team of three named dentists is led by Dr. Victor Chelari, an implantologist, supported by a dental surgeon and an orthopedic specialist. The clinic received the Notorium Brand Award for well-known dental clinic in the Republic for four consecutive years (2022–2025).
The clinic self-describes as having a 4.9-star rating from 500+ reviews but Google Maps was not directly accessible for verification; rating and count reported as null. A secondary phone for Dr. Chelari (+373 69 468 858) appears in search snippets. WhatsApp uses the main reception number. No IDNO or operating licence number is published on the website. No dedicated price page for orthodontics was found.
