Nitrous Oxide

We use nitrous oxide, also known as “laughing gas,” to help patients relax during dental procedures. It’s a mild sedative that is inhaled through a mask placed over the nose. Patients breathe in a mix of nitrous oxide and oxygen, which quickly makes them feel calm and less anxious, but still awake and aware. Once the procedure is done, pure oxygen is given to clear the effects, and patients recover quickly, often feeling back to normal within minutes. It’s commonly used for patients with dental anxiety or for minor procedures.

IV Sedation

This involves administering medication through a vein to help patients relax during dental procedures. The sedation makes patients very calm and often drowsy, but they can still respond to the dentist if needed. In some cases, patients may not remember much of the procedure. Dentists monitor vital signs carefully throughout, and the effects wear off gradually after the procedure, so patients will need someone to drive them home. It’s often used for longer or more complex treatments, or for patients with severe anxiety.
