Yes, nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, is a safe way to help you relax during your dental
treatment. It’s fast-acting and can be adjusted during treatment; we administer it through a small mask over your nose. Once we remove the mask, it wears off quickly, allowing you to return to your normal activities right away. Nitrous oxide helps you feel calm so you can get the dental treatment you deserve.
Providing Emergency Care When You Need It
Your safety and comfort are our top priorities, and nitrous oxide can eliminate dental anxiety and help you relax during an emergency dental visit. We use it to alleviate pain and anxiety in the most urgent situations.
If you or a loved one experiences any of the following dental emergencies, we’re here for you:
- Severe toothache
- Broken or cracked tooth
- Knocked-out tooth
- Abscess tooth
- Lost or broken restoration
- Soft tissue injury to the cheek, lip, or gums
