Sedation Dentistry - Kirkland, WA

Nitrous oxide, commonly known as “laughing gas,” is a safe and effective form of sedation used to help patients feel relaxed and comfortable during dental treatment. It is especially helpful for patients who experience dental anxiety, have a strong gag reflex, or feel nervous about procedures.

During your visit, nitrous oxide is administered through a small mask placed over your nose. The effects are felt quickly, helping you feel calm and at ease while remaining fully awake and responsive throughout treatment.

One of the key benefits of nitrous oxide is that its effects wear off rapidly once the gas is stopped. This means most patients are able to resume normal activities shortly after their appointment, often without lingering drowsiness.

Our team carefully monitors your comfort throughout your visit and adjusts sedation levels as needed to ensure a positive, stress-free experience. Nitrous oxide allows many patients to receive the care they need while feeling relaxed and confident in the dental chair.
