Oral Conscious Sedation
If nitrous oxide alone doesn't calm your nerves, oral conscious sedation may be worth considering. This involves taking a pill at a designated time before your visit. While it won't put you to sleep, it induces deep relaxation, and you may have little memory of the appointment afterward. Since the effects linger, you'll need a trusted friend or family member to drive you to and from your appointment.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Commonly known as "laughing gas," nitrous oxide promotes feelings of calm and mild euphoria, helping you stay relaxed throughout your treatment. Delivered through a simple nasal mask, it takes effect within just a few minutes of inhalation. Once your appointment wraps up, the effects fade quickly, allowing you to resume your normal daily activities almost immediately with no lingering grogginess or downtime required.
