Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous Oxide Sedation, often referred to as laughing gas, is a safe and effective way to help patients relax during dental procedures at Carrville Dentistry. It is a colorless and odorless gas that is administered through a small mask that fits over the nose. This form of sedation allows patients to remain conscious and responsive throughout the procedure while experiencing a heightened sense of relaxation and comfort.
One of the significant advantages of nitrous oxide sedation is its quick onset and recovery time. Patients generally feel the effects within minutes of inhaling the gas and can resume their normal activities shortly after the procedure. Unlike other forms of sedation, there are minimal side effects associated with nitrous oxide, and patients can drive themselves home after their appointment. Overall, nitrous oxide sedation provides a calm and relaxed experience for patients, ensuring a positive dental visit at our practice.
