your appointment, and then leave with no adverse effects on your
driving ability or anything else you may need to do.
It is highly effective
at calming your nerves, and is extremely safe. It gives you a relaxed, tranquil feeling that is perfect for many
people who feel a little anxious about dental treatment. It's appropriate
for anyone who feels uncomfortable in the dentist's chair.
Nitrous oxide is called
a conscious analgesic because patients remain fully
awake and can communicate while it's being used. It can be adjusted while
it is administered, giving you the exact right dose that you need. It can
also be stopped at any time, and its effects wear off
before you leave the chair.
However, if you have severe treatment
anxiety, nitrous oxide may not be strong enough for you. It is also not
recommended for pregnant women. If you would like more information, please
ask us.
