Patients who have anxiety or dental phobias may postpone or avoid necessary treatments. Neglecting oral health can lead to tooth loss, disease, and overall health problems. Sedation Dentistry can help a patient overcome dental fear.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a safe and effective sedation method used to help patients feel calm and comfortable during dental procedures. The gas is inhaled through a small mask placed over the nose, allowing patients to remain fully conscious and responsive throughout the procedure. The effects wear off quickly after the mask is removed, so patients can typically drive themselves home after their appointment. Nitrous oxide sedation is administered by our doctors — Dr. Andrew Frangella, Dr. Tina Frangella, and Dr. Laura Frangella — and is an excellent option for patients of all ages.

Sedation Dentistry can give you the peace of mind you need in order to undergo dental work. It will allow you to receive the care necessary for you to enjoy better overall health, an improved self-image, and better quality of life with a healthy, beautiful smile.
