Oral Sedation and Nitrous Oxide

According to the Statistics, about 15% of Americans fear going to a dentist since it is believed that a dental treatment is painful. A general opinion has been formed among the masses that any dental treatment is severe. One of the many services at the Rockdale Smile Center is Oral Sedation.

Rockdale Smile Center wishes that its patients do not fear any kind of treatment they are going to take up there. They provide oral sedation (inhalation sedation with Nitrous Oxide) to reduce the patients’ fear and anxiety during a dental treatment.

Nitrous Oxide or Laughing gas is often used by the Dentists to relieve the patient for carrying out a smooth dental procedure. Nitrous Oxide is a safe sedative, which is combined with oxygen and inhaled through a mask. This develops a numb feeling, enabling the patient not to feel any kind of pain, yet does not make sleepy.

Nitrous oxide is used because it creates a relaxing feeling when patients are undergoing an uncomfortable treatment or one that may take a long time. With the help of Nitrous Oxide, patients remain calm and comfortable throughout the dental procedure. It is also used for patients with dental anxiety, or for children or special needs patients who find it difficult to sit through a long dental procedure.

You do not have to worry about the use of Nitrous Oxide as the Dentists have an extensive training in its use and other sedation techniques. They make sure that every patient gets the correct dosage of Nitrous Oxide to keep them calm and relaxed during the entire treatment.

Book your appointment today with the Rockdale Dentist to maintain your and your family’s oral Hygiene and experience a warm environment. You will not stay without making Rockdale Smile Center your family dentist for years to come.
