Nitrous Oxide Sedation: An Answer to Dental Anxiety!
Nitrous oxide is a mild sedative gas mixed with oxygen. You breathe it through a small, soft mask that rests over your nose. Within a few minutes, you feel relaxed, light and comfortable, while staying awake and able to talk with our team.
Laughing gas can help if you:
- Feel nervous or anxious about dental visits
- Have a strong gag reflex
- Have sensitive teeth or gums
- Need a longer treatment, like a root canal or deep cleaning
- Find it hard to sit still in the dental chair
At Burton Advance Dental, we want every patient to feel at ease. Nitrous oxide is one of the simplest ways we make that happen, for kids and adults alike.
