Nitrous oxide gas or laughing gas is an effective anesthetic drug that is used to relax patients and reduce their anxiety during dental treatment. It is administered with a small, comfortable mask placed over the patient's nose. Once the patient is relaxed and comfortable, the doctor will begin dental treatment.

Nitrous oxide is a mild sedative that is non-addictive. It is common for patients to be so relaxed that they fall asleep during treatment. This type of sedation is quickly eliminated from the body, so after dental treatment, the patient can almost always leave the office by themselves, without a driver or escort.

Nitrous oxide sedation is a great option to help reduce apprehension about getting dental work completed.

Dental Emergencies can happen to anyone. They require immediate attention and are sometime life threatening. If you are having trouble breathing or if you are having trouble swallowing, dial 9-1-1.
