nitrous oxide

 

At Southern Smiles Pediatric Dentistry, we want every visit to be a joyful, empowering experience. For children who might feel a little nervous, we offer nitrous oxide (often called "laughing gas") as a gentle way to help them feel relaxed and comfortable.

 

Guided by AAPD recommendations and our commitment to clinical excellence, here is how we use nitrous oxide to support your child’s dental home:

 

What is Nitrous Oxide?

 

Nitrous oxide is a safe, mild blend of oxygen and nitrous oxide that your child breathes through a small, scented nose mask. It is one of the most conservative ways to help a child navigate dental anxiety.

 

  • Quick & Gentle: It works quickly to create a calm, "happy" feeling and wears off almost immediately after the mask is removed.
  • Stay Awake & Aware: Your child remains fully awake and able to communicate with our team, allowing us to continue treating them from their unique point of view.
