This form of Conscious Sedation offered at Lakeside Family Dental helps to ease anxiety and enhance procedural comfort.
Advantages of using nitrous oxide include the following:
Nitrous Oxide has been a means of sedation in dentistry for many years. Nitrous oxide is safe; the patient receives up to 70% nitrous with no less than 30% oxygen. It has been used by millions of patients globally for dental and medical sedation.
You are able to breathe on your own and remain in control of all bodily functions. There is no requirement for a company to provide transportation home after receiving nitrous oxide administration. You will be able to walk or drive home unaccompanied. You may also experience mild amnesia and may fall asleep, not remembering all of what happened during the appointment.
You should not use Nitrous Oxide if you have been diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Though there are generally no significant contraindications for using nitrous oxide, it may not be suitable if you have emphysema, unusual chest conditions, multiple sclerosis, a cold, or other breathing issues. Claustrophobia is also a reason to avoid its use. Consult your dentist in Burlington to determine if nitrous oxide is appropriate for your specific health conditions.
You may want to ask Dr. Michael Cohen & Associates for a “5 minute trial” to see how you feel with this type of sedation method before proceeding with further treatment.
Lakeside Family Dental offers extended hours, weekend appointments, same-day emergency care, and flexible payment plans. With on-site specialists and advanced technology, we make exceptional dental care convenient and accessible for your family.
