Nitrous Oxide Sedation, commonly known as laughing gas, is a mild form of sedation perfect for patients who feel anxious or nervous about their dental treatment but still need to drive themselves home. This safe, nitrogen-oxygen mixture is inhaled through a small nose mask during your procedure, producing an immediate, relaxed, and sometimes euphoric sensation that keeps you calm and at ease throughout your visit. The effects wear off completely within minutes of removing the mask, allowing you to return to normal activities right away. If you suffer from dental anxiety or simply dislike the sounds and sights of the dental office, this can help you receive your treatments in comfort and without worry. To discuss using nitrous oxide for your next appointment, please contact us at (928) 718-2136.

Oral Sedation is a form of conscious sedation administered via a pill taken before your appointment, ideal for patients who feel distressed, fearful, or generally uncomfortable visiting the dentist. While you remain awake, the medication helps you feel profoundly relaxed and at ease, often resulting in an amnesic effect where you may not recall all the details of the procedure. This is a quick, easy, and cost-effective option for achieving a comfortable experience. If you and our dentists determine that this is the best choice for you, please remember that for maximum safety, you must have a family member or friend drive you to and from your appointment. To learn more about this option in Kingman, Arizona, and schedule a visit with Drs. Timothy, Jesse, and Luke Mangelsdorf, please call us at (928) 718-2136.
