Nitrous Oxide – Reading, PA
Nitrous Oxide
Laughing gas, also known as nitrous oxide, is commonly used to relieve mild to moderate anxiety during dental procedures. It is administered through a small mask placed over your nose, helping to decrease anxiety, enhance pain tolerance, and create a sense of time passing more quickly. While under the influence of laughing gas, you will feel relaxed yet alert enough to communicate with the dentist.
After your appointment, you will switch back to breathing regular oxygen, and the effects of the laughing gas will quickly wear off, allowing you to return to your normal activities right away.
