Medication

Anxiety medication can be used before a dental appointment to help achieve a stress-free treatment. Your caring dentist can discuss with you if this is suitable for you.

Happy Gas (Nitrous Oxide)

Commonly known as “laughing gas,” Nitrous Oxide is a safe and effective sedative agent used in dentistry to help patients relax during dental procedures. It’s mixed with oxygen and administered through a small mask that fits over the nose.

When you inhale nitrous oxide, it produces feelings of calmness and euphoria, which can help alleviate anxiety and fear associated with dental treatment. It also has pain-relieving properties, although it’s not a substitute for local anaesthesia in procedures that require it.

One of the advantages of nitrous oxide is that its effects wear off quickly once the mask is removed, allowing patients to drive themselves home after the appointment. It’s commonly used for patients of all ages, including children, and it’s considered safe when administered by trained dental professionals.
