Nitrous Oxide Sedation - A Relaxing Dental Experience
At Jenkins Dental, we offer Nitrous Oxide, commonly known as 'laughing gas,' to help patients feel more relaxed and comfortable during their dental procedures. It's a safe and effective way to reduce anxiety and enhance patient comfort.
What Is Nitrous Oxide and How Does It Work?
Nitrous Oxide is a mild sedative agent that's inhaled through a small mask over the nose. It helps patients relax and may produce a euphoric feeling, making dental procedures more comfortable.
Who Can Benefit from Nitrous Oxide Sedation?
It's ideal for patients with dental anxiety, those undergoing lengthy procedures, or individuals who have difficulty getting numb with local anesthesia. It's also useful for children who are nervous about dental visits.
What to Expect When Using Nitrous Oxide?
You'll remain awake and able to communicate during the procedure. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly once the mask is removed, allowing you to resume normal activities shortly after your appointment.
Is Nitrous Oxide Safe for All Patients?
Nitrous Oxide is generally safe when administered by a professional. We assess each patient's medical history to ensure it's a suitable option.
