Nitrous oxide helps you manage dental anxiety and fear, allowing you to safely receive dental treatment. It is a great sedation option if you have mild or moderate anxiety because you remain awake but feel comfortable and relaxed.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
You are not alone
Many of our patients who feel nervous or anxious about receiving dental care have benefited from nitrous oxide (N20) sedation at our office. Also known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide is a gas you inhale through a nose mask during your treatment. As you breathe it, you will experience a relaxed or even euphoric sensation. During treatment, it can help you feel calm and at ease, allowing your dentist to perform a procedure without any challenges.
Nitrous oxide sedation is very safe, and the effects wear off within a few minutes once we remove the mask from your nose. With this sedation method, you can legally and safely drive yourself home after your appointment.
Every patient deserves to feel calm and relaxed when receiving dental care. If you suffer from dental anxiety or fear the dentist, nitrous oxide might be a good option. We also use it to help patients who dislike the sounds and sights of a dental office. Please let us know if you have any concerns so we can offer you options to help with your anxiety.
