Do you feel nervous or anxious about dental treatment? At Stamford Green Dental, we offer Inhaled Conscious Sedation, also known as Laughing Gas (Nitrous Oxide), to help you feel calm and relaxed throughout your dental visit. This safe, fast-acting sedation option is ideal for patients of all ages, including children and adults with dental anxiety.
Laughing gas is a mild sedative that is inhaled through a small mask placed over your nose. It induces a sense of relaxation and reduces stress while allowing you to stay awake and responsive during your procedure. The effects wear off quickly after treatment, so you can resume your day without lingering drowsiness.
Eases Dental Anxiety – Helps you feel relaxed and comfortable. Quick Onset & Recovery – Effects start within minutes and wear off almost immediately after treatment. Safe for All Ages – Ideal for children, adults, and seniors. No Needles or Pills – A simple, inhaled sedative for stress-free dentistry. Adjustable Sedation Levels – We can easily control the amount of sedation for your comfort. No After-Effects – Unlike oral sedation, laughing gas does not leave you feeling groggy or drowsy.
This sedation option is perfect for patients who:
Experience mild to moderate dental anxiety Feel nervous about needles or dental procedures Have a strong gag reflex or sensitive teeth Need a gentle relaxation option without lasting side effects Are children or adults undergoing routine dental care
