Nitrous Oxide in New York, NY
A safe, mild sedation option that helps you relax during dental procedures and wears off within minutes.
How it works
Gentle relaxation you control
Nitrous oxide, commonly called laughing gas, is inhaled through a small mask placed over your nose. It takes effect within minutes and produces a calm, relaxed feeling while you remain fully conscious and responsive.
When the procedure is done, the gas is turned off and the effects wear off quickly. Most patients can drive themselves home and return to normal activities right away.
