Serving Milton since 2018, our team specializes in anxiety-free dental care for children, teens, and adults.
What Is Nitrous Oxide Sedation?
Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a mild inhaled sedative that helps patients relax during dental procedures. It works quickly and wears off fast, allowing you to return to normal activities shortly after your visit.
Patients often describe feeling:
- Calm and relaxed
- Less aware of time
- Reduced anxiety or fear
- Comfortable throughout treatment
Wearing retainers as directed is the key to lasting results.
