We understand that visiting the dentist can be an anxious experience for some people. That’s why at Downtown Dental, we offer Sedation Dentistry, including Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas), to help make your visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

Whether you’re nervous about a procedure, have a strong gag reflex, or simply want to feel more relaxed during treatment, our sedation options can help. From mild to moderate sedation—including oral sedation and nitrous oxide—our experienced team will tailor the level of sedation to your needs. You’ll remain conscious and responsive, but feel calm, relaxed, and often won’t remember much of the procedure.

What is Nitrous Oxide?
Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a safe, fast-acting sedative inhaled through a small mask placed over your nose. It helps reduce anxiety, ease discomfort, and promote a feeling of relaxation during treatment. The effects wear off quickly, so you can usually return to normal activities right after your appointment—making it a great option for both kids and adults.
Sedation dentistry is ideal for:
🛠️ Patients with dental anxiety or fear
🛠️ Those undergoing lengthy or complex procedures
🛠️ People with difficulty sitting still
🛠️ Patients with special healthcare needs
🛠️ Individuals with a strong gag reflex
🛠️ Let us help you take the fear out of dentistry—so you can get the care you need, comfortably and confidently.
