There’s no one-size-fits-all solution to dental anxiety, as people develop these feelings for different reasons. You may fear seeing a dentist due to painful or negative dental experiences in the past. Or the mere sound of the dental drill can induce anxiety and fear. You can have more relaxing, stress-free dental visits through sedation dentistry to get the dental services you need. At Aztec Family Dental, Dr. James Durfey offers nitrous oxide sedation to our patients in Aztec, New Mexico, to keep you calm and comfortable in the dental chair.
Although nitrous oxide is one of the mildest forms of dental sedation, its calming effects will make you feel relaxed in no time. Dr. Durfey will administer this gas through a mask placed over your nose at the onset of your procedure. When inhaled, the gas takes effect in minutes to ease tension and fear so you can have a relaxing treatment. You’ll drift off into a state of euphoria, but be fully conscious during your procedure.
Dr. Durfey may recommend nitrous oxide to help manage anxiety, stress, or fear, ensuring you receive the quality dental care you require. Nitrous oxide sedation can provide positive dental experiences, helping to alleviate anxiety and fear. Over time, you’ll come to view dentistry in a new light and fully benefit from professional oral care.
We highly recommend nitrous oxide sedation for its safe, effective qualities.
Nitrous oxide is safe for children, teens, and adults when administered by an experienced sedation dentist.
