Sleep dentistry, also known as sedation dentistry, uses gases to help patients rest and stay comfortable during dental treatments. We at Zen Dentistry provide oxygen and nitrous oxide sedation, sometimes known as laughing gas. Patients who have a sensitive gag reflex, suffer from oral anxiety, or require more involved or prolonged operations are best suited for this approach. Inhaling a nitrous oxide and oxygen mixture can help you feel relaxed and tranquil, which will make it simpler to get the treatments you need without feeling anxious or uncomfortable.
Sleep dentistry is used to make patients feel more relaxed and comfortable during dental operations that would otherwise be stressful or uncomfortable. Nitrous gas and oxygen can calm your nerves during any operation, including a root canal, tooth extraction, or routine checkup. For people who have dental anxiety, require several treatments at once, or have trouble sitting during lengthy consultations, this type of sedation is ideal. Nitrous oxide rapidly promotes a sense of peace and relaxation, and when combined with oxygen, it keeps you safe all the time. You can resume your regular activities quickly following the operation because the effects wear off quickly.
Your comfort and safety are our top priorities at Zen Dentistry. We will talk about your individual needs during your appointment and decide whether nitrous gas and oxygen sedation is appropriate for you. When you're prepared for the treatment, a mask will be put over your nose so you may breathe in the oxygen and nitrous oxide mixture, which is relaxing. You will feel peaceful and relaxed in a matter of minutes, but you will still be able to speak and be completely alert. Our skilled staff will keep an eye on you during the process to make sure you're safe. The effects of nitrous oxide subside rapidly after the procedure, and you won't have any residual sleepiness when you return to your regular activities. Zen Dentistry's sleep dentistry provides a secure and efficient means of improving your dental experience while preserving a calm, cozy setting.
