Nitrous Oxide Sedation Dentistry

Also known as “laughing gas,” nitrous oxide is a great sedation option for patients who struggle with mild to moderate feelings of dental anxiety and/or fear. The gas is administered through a nasal mask, and within minutes, patients should start to feel more content and relaxed. The biggest advantage of this method is that these effects wear off just as quickly once the mask is removed. This means patients can return to their daily routine following treatment with virtually no downtime required.
