Laughing Gas (Nitrous Oxide) Sedation

Laughing gas is an effective way to reduce anxiety for most dental procedures. It is the mildest form of sedation we use and is inhaled through a small mask placed over the nose. Odorless and combined with pure oxygen, it creates a feeling of relaxation and well-being during treatment. The level of sedation can be easily customized for each patient and takes effect within minutes.

As a mild sedative, laughing gas does not cause short-term memory loss like other forms of sedation. Once the mask is removed, the effects dissipate almost immediately, allowing you to return home with no lingering effects. No escort is necessary when using only laughing gas for sedation.
