Conscious sedation using laughing gas (nitrous oxide) is a safe and effective way to help patients relax during dental treatments. It is especially beneficial for individuals who feel anxious or nervous about dental procedures.
The gas is administered through a small mask placed over the nose, allowing you to remain awake, aware, and responsive while feeling calm and comfortable throughout the treatment.
