Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
Nitrous Oxide is a sweet-smelling, non irritating, colorless gas which when inhaled, can provide relaxation for your dental visits.
Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) is safe and effective, and has been used very successfully for many decades, helping patients to have the dentistry they need. If you use nitrous, you will be able to breathe on your own and you will remain in control of your situation.
There are many advantages to using Nitrous Oxide:
- The depth of sedation can be altered to increase or decrease sedation
- There is no after effect such as a "hangover"
- You can function normally immediately after your appointment
- Inhalation sedation is safe with no side effects on you heart, lungs, etc.
- Inhalation sedation is very effective in minimizing gagging
- It works rapidly as it reaches the brain within 20 seconds. In as few as 2-3 minutes you will feel its relaxing effects.
If you are unsure if nitrous oxide is a good option for you, ask us for a "5 minute trial" to see how it works for you.
