Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Nitrous oxide sedation is mild and suited for patients with low anxiety. By applying nitrous oxide (i.e., “laughing gas”) through a nose mask, it helps you stay calm during care. Our team can then proceed smoothly and easily with your treatment. As a bonus, you can also resume everyday activities right after the procedure; nitrous oxide’s effects quickly fade once you stop breathing it.
Oral Conscious Sedation
Compared to nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation is stronger and works well for moderate anxiety. It usually involves taking a sedative pill before your visit and creates a state of deep relaxation. You’ll still be awake and lucid during your treatment, you’ll just feel groggy for a few hours afterward. Those effects are why you’ll need someone to drive you to and from our office.
