Anxiety Management Many patients have had traumatic experiences in dentistry or have other anxieties about their treatment. At Dental Haven, Dr. Alexandra strives to meet your individual comfort needs. For our patients with anxiety, sedation dentistry may be the answer. We offer nitrous oxide as an option for our patients.Nitrous OxideNitrous oxide is a safe and effective sedative agent that will help you relax. It is mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a small mask that fits over your nose. Nitrous oxide, sometimes called "laughing gas," is one option we may offer to help make you more comfortable during certain procedures. It is not intended to put you to sleep. You will be able to hear and respond to any requests or directions we may have. Dr. Alexandra will ask you to breathe normally through your nose, and within a few short minutes you should start to feel the effects of the nitrous oxide. You may feel light-headed or a tingling in your arms and legs. Some people say their arms and legs feel heavy. Ultimately, you should feel calm and comfortable. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off soon after the mask is removed. Talk to us about whether nitrous oxide would be a good option for you at your next appointment. In-Office General AnesthesiaAt Dental Haven, we understand that some adults may need additional support to feel comfortable during dental procedures. That’s why we partner with experienced dental anesthesiologists to offer safe, in-office general anesthesia. Our goal is to provide a calm, stress-free environment so you can receive the care you need without fear, discomfort, or anxiety.
