Travelers Rest Sedation Dentist
Relax and feel at ease during your visit
Gentle, calming care with nitrous oxide sedation
Dental anxiety is incredibly common. At Paris Mountain Dental, we’re here to make your visits easier with sedation dentistry using nitrous oxide (laughing gas).
Nitrous oxide is a safe, fast-acting sedative that helps you feel calm and comfortable throughout your appointment. It’s ideal for patients of all ages and is especially helpful if you feel nervous about dental treatments, have a strong gag reflex, or need a longer or more complex procedure.
- Breathe in, relax, and stay fully conscious and responsive
- The calming effects kick in within minutes
- Once the treatment is over, the gas wears off quickly with no lingering drowsiness
Our Travelers Rest sedation dentist can transform the way you experience dental care, making your visit more relaxing and less stressful.
Say goodbye to painful injections
If fear of needles is part of your dental anxiety, we’ve got you covered. We’ve invested in computer-delivered anesthesia technology for a gentler, more precise experience.
This innovative system controls the flow of anesthesia digitally, allowing for pain-free injections that feel more like a light pressure than a sharp poke. Patients often say they barely notice anything at all.
- More comfortable and controlled than traditional syringes
- Ideal for patients with needle sensitivity
- Makes numbing quicker and less stressful
Combined with nitrous oxide, this approach creates a completely different kind of dental visit, one that’s truly comfortable from start to finish!
Sedation Dentistry FAQ
What is nitrous oxide sedation?
Nitrous oxide is a colorless, odorless gas that’s inhaled through a small nose mask. It promotes a feeling of calm and well-being while reducing sensitivity to pain. You remain awake and alert during the procedure but feel much more relaxed. It’s one of the most widely used and trusted methods of dental sedation.
Is nitrous oxide safe?
Absolutely. Nitrous oxide has been used safely in dentistry for over a century. It’s non-addictive, fast-acting, and completely reversible. Our team is fully trained in its administration and will monitor you closely throughout your visit.
How will I feel during the procedure?
Most patients describe the sensation as light, floaty, or slightly tingly. You may feel warm or even giggle a bit, hence the name “laughing gas.” You’ll remain aware of your surroundings, but your anxieties will fade into the background.
Who is a good candidate for sedation dentistry?
Nitrous oxide is a great option for patients who:
- Experience dental fear or anxiety
- Have difficulty getting numb
- Have a strong gag reflex
- Need multiple treatments in one visit
- Have special needs or sensitivities
If you’re unsure whether it’s right for you, we’re happy to talk it through and find the best fit.
