At Dominion Street Dental in Alliston, ON, we understand that dental anxiety can prevent patients from getting the care they need. That’s why Dr. Oksana Vozna offers nitrous oxide sedation, commonly known as laughing gas, to help patients relax and feel comfortable during their dental visits.

What is Laughing Gas?

Nitrous oxide is a mild sedative gas carefully mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a small nose mask. Its calming effects make it easy for patients to feel relaxed, at ease, and carefree. Many patients describe a pleasant, lightheaded sensation, and some even doze off lightly, all while remaining fully conscious and able to communicate with the dental team.

How Laughing Gas Works

The effects of laughing gas begin within minutes. Patients experience reduced awareness of dental sights, sounds, and sensations, allowing procedures to be more comfortable and stress-free. Small adjustments are made to the gas flow throughout treatment to maintain optimal relaxation and safety.

Key benefits of nitrous oxide sedation include:

  • Rapid onset and fast recovery ,  effects wear off quickly after the gas is stopped
  • Patients remain conscious and can communicate with the dentist
  • Low risk of interactions with other medications
  • Safe for most patients, including children aged six and older
  • Minimal side effects, with headaches or nausea being rare
  • No need for a caregiver; you can resume normal activities and safely drive after your appointment

Who Can Benefit from Laughing Gas?

Nitrous oxide sedation is ideal for patients who experience:

  • Dental anxiety or fear
  • Gag reflex sensitivity
  • Previous negative dental experiences
  • Longer or more complex procedures

By combining laughing gas with modern relaxation dentistry techniques, Dr. Vozna ensures that every patient feels safe, calm, and in control during their visit.
