Manage Your Dental Anxiety with Nitrous Oxide

Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a completely safe and effective way to manage pain and reduce dental anxiety for both kids and adults. This colourless, odourless gas provides mild sedation, helping you relax during treatment without putting you to sleep. Best of all, the effects wear off quickly, allowing you to return to your day shortly after your appointment.

While using nitrous oxide, you’ll remain awake but feel much more at ease. It helps reduce pain sensitivity, minimize the gag reflex, and significantly lower anxiety, making your dental experience more comfortable.

What to Expect During Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Consultation

Before using nitrous oxide, your dentist will review your medical history to ensure it’s the right option for you. In some cases, nitrous oxide may not be suitable, such as if you’re in the first trimester of pregnancy, have respiratory issues, a vitamin B-12 deficiency, a history of substance abuse, or certain mental health conditions. This consultation is an essential step in personalizing care and ensuring both safety and effectiveness in your treatment.

Quick and Simple Process

Once it’s confirmed that nitrous oxide is safe for you, the process is easy. The dentist will place a small mask over your nose and mouth, and you’ll simply breathe in and relax. Nitrous oxide helps calm you during treatment, reducing anxiety and sensitivity to pain without putting you to sleep.

One of the great things about nitrous oxide is how quickly the effects wear off. After the procedure, you’ll breathe in pure oxygen for about 5 minutes to clear any remaining gas from your system.

After the Procedure

If numbing medication was used, you might still feel some numbness, but the relaxing effects of nitrous oxide will be gone as soon as the mask is removed. You’ll be able to return to work and eat normally right after your appointment.

The Cost of Nitrous Oxide Treatment in Breslau

The cost of nitrous oxide treatment can vary depending on your insurance coverage. The good news is that many insurance plans fully cover this procedure. With most plans, the out-of-pocket cost can range from $0 to $80 or more. If you’re without insurance, the cost could be $150 or higher.

We recommend reaching out to your insurance provider for a detailed quote before your visit to our dental clinic in Breslau.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, dental sedation is safe. We carefully review each patient’s medical history to ensure sedation is the right option for you.

Sedation makes you feel relaxed and drowsy fairly quickly. Some people describe feeling a mild tingling sensation. You may also experience mild amnesia and not remember the procedure afterwards.

Most sedation dentistry options don’t actually put you to sleep. Instead, they help you feel deeply relaxed. You’ll remain conscious but calm, and often won’t remember much of the procedure once it’s finished.

Yes, we recommend having a friend or family member drive you home after sedation. It’s important to let the effects fully wear off and allow your body time to rest before resuming normal activities.

Recovery time depends on the type of sedation used. We generally advise taking the day off to rest, with full recovery often taking 2 to 8 hours. Setting aside 24 hours before returning to your usual routine is a good idea.

Was a client before, moved then came back to the area. Came back to this dental office because it’s always been a positive experience. Clean, professional, friendly staff. Employees that actually like their jobs and happy to see their clients. Alicia the hygienist was thorough with the cleaning and explained everything. The admin (I think Charlene?) ALWAYS friendly in person or when I call. She contacted my insurance company for me to help me have the best experience and obtain the best dental care. 10/10 recommend. Happy to be back!
