Why choose nitrous oxide sedation?
Nitrous oxide sedation is a light, inhaled sedative that’s perfect for children. It offers a range of benefits that make dental visits easier for both parents and ducklings:
Your child will feel calm within minutes of inhaling the gas through a small, kid-friendly mask.
Nitrous oxide doesn’t require needles or injections.
The effects wear off quickly after the procedure, so your child can resume their day.
We adjust the amount of sedation to meet your child’s unique needs.
Let’s make every dental visit a great experience!
A smooth process for every duckling
- Fitting the mask: Your child will wear a small, comfortable mask over their nose.
- Breathing and relaxing: As they breathe in the nitrous oxide, they’ll begin to feel calm and happy — some even giggle!
- Procedure time: While your child is relaxed, we’ll complete their dental treatment with care and precision.
- Quick recovery: Once the procedure is done, we stop the nitrous oxide, and your child will feel back to normal within minutes.
