Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, is a nitrogen-oxygen mixture that you inhale through a nose mask during your treatment. As you breathe in the nitrous oxide, you will experience a relaxed or even euphoric sensation. Nitrous oxide can help you feel calm and at ease throughout your dental treatment. Nitrous oxide sedation is very safe: the effects wear off within just a few minutes after we remove your nose mask, and you can legally and safely drive yourself home after your appointment.

Nitrous oxide is a good option if you suffer from dental anxiety or dental phobia. Be certain to discuss your concerns with our team before your visit so we can help you feel more comfortable during your treatment.
