Nitrous Oxide Sedation (also known as “laughing gas”) is a safe and effective sedative agent made up of nitrogen and oxygen. It is inhaled by the patient through a small mask that fits over the nose. The gas helps induce a moderate state of relaxation; you will be able to hear and respond to any directions or requests but should ultimately feel comfortable and calm. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off soon after the mask is removed, so you can usually drive yourself home after your appointment.
