Sedation for Anxious Patients

Many people feel anxious going to the dentist. This can be because of a previous bad dental experience or a feeling of embarrassment about the condition of the teeth because of the neglect over the years.


“Your comfort is our priority”


At Tooth Smart Dental, we offer Nitrous oxide/ Happy gas/ Laughing gas to help calm your nerves during treatment.

Nitrous oxide is a safe and effective sedative agent that is mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a small mask that fits over your nose to help you relax. You will be able to hear and respond to any requests or directions the dentist may have. It decreases pain sensitivity and makes you feel calm and comfortable. The effects of Nitrous oxide wear off soon after the mask is removed.

What is the recovery time with Nitrous Oxide inhalation sedation?

Usually, people who have nitrous oxide recover within 15 to 30 minutes.

Can I drive after my appointment?

Since its effects wear off soon after the mask is removed, you can drive once you’ve been released from the dental office.

Can I go back to work after my appointment?

You may return to your normal activities after you leave the dental office.

Nitrous Oxide Inhalation Sedation Cost

Each patient has their individual requirements when it comes to using sedation for dental treatments. We recommend a consultation with one of our amazing Dentists to discuss your particular requirement or suitability for inhalation sedation. At Tooth Smart Dental, the consultation cost is $69. During your consultation, the Dentist can provide you an itemised quote for happy gas use for your dental appointment.
