What is laughing gas and what does it do?
Laughing gas, known scientifically as nitrous oxide, is a mild sedation option used in dental treatments. It’s a colorless, sweet-smelling gas you inhale through a mask placed over your nose. Laughing gas quickly relaxes you, reducing anxiety and discomfort during procedures. The effects of the gas are mild and wear off soon after the mask is removed

What is oral sedation like?
Oral sedation involves taking a prescribed sedative pill before your dental appointment. This method is ideal for patients with moderate to severe dental anxiety. The medication helps you feel drowsy and calm, though you’ll still be awake and able to communicate with your dentist. Due to the lingering effects of the medication, patients who choose oral sedation will need someone to drive them home following their appointment.
