Nitrous oxide has is highly effective, extremely safe and remarkably calming.
It induces a relaxed, tranquil feeling that is perfect for many people who feel a little anxious about getting dental checkups or treatment. It's especially good for nervous patients, frightened children, or anyone who feels uncomfortable in the dentist's chair. Nitrous oxide is called the conscious analgesic because patients remain awake and can communicate while it's being used. Also we can stop nitrous oxide at any time, and its effects wear off before you leave the chair.
