Sedation Dentistry

Going to the dentist is a stressful time for many people. If you don't look forward to going to the dentist, sedation dentistry may be right for you. Our team uses nitrous oxide, which is one of the most commonly used forms of sedation in dentistry. This gas is a safe and effective way to help patients relax and reduce their anxiety during dental treatment.

Nitrous oxide is administered through a small mask placed over the patient's nose. The gas is mixed with oxygen and inhaled by the patient, who will feel the effects within a few minutes. Patients typically report feeling a sense of relaxation and calmness, along with a tingling sensation in their arms and legs. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly once the mask is removed, allowing patients to return to their normal activities without any lingering drowsiness.

If you believe nitrous oxide might help you have a better dental experience, schedule an appointment with Dr. Geiger and his team today!
