Nitrous Oxide

Nitrous oxide referred to as “laughing gas,” is an effective and safe sedation agent that is inhaled through a mask that fits over your nose to help you feel relax during your procedure at Dorri’s Dental. Laughing Gas is a very common sedation dental option that helps thousands of patients feel at ease during their treatment. You may feel light-headed or a tingling in your arms and legs. Some patient’s comment that their legs and arms feel heavy. Ultimately, as mentioned before, you should feel comfortable and calm. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly after our small mask is removed. Talk to Dr. Aldorri about whether nitrous oxide would be a good option for you.
