Ease Dental Anxiety With Nitrous Oxide Sedation
At The Crown Dental Arts, our dentists use nitrous oxide sedation in Draper, Utah, to help patients feel more comfortable during dental treatment. Also known as “laughing gas,” this mild form of sedation is safe, fast-acting and effective in reducing anxiety without putting you to sleep.
Nitrous oxide is ideal for patients who feel nervous about dental visits, have a strong gag reflex or need a little extra help relaxing in the chair. It allows you to remain awake and responsive while feeling calm and at ease.
Why Nitrous Oxide May Be Right for You
Nitrous oxide sedation offers a simple, gentle way to take the edge off your dental experience. It is administered through a small mask placed over the nose and wears off quickly after treatment, allowing you to return to your day without downtime.
Some of the key benefits of nitrous oxide sedation include:
- Quick onset and easy control of sedation levels
- Reduced feelings of fear and anxiety
- Minimal side effects and quick recovery time
- Safe for children and adults
- Can be used for both short and longer appointments
Our dentists will assess your comfort level, medical history and personal preferences to ensure nitrous oxide is a good fit for you. We are always happy to answer questions and guide you through the experience at your pace.
