Relax and Smile with Happy Gas
At Our Dental Care, we know that dental visits can sometimes cause anxiety. Whether you’re getting a routine check-up or undergoing a more complex procedure, it’s important that you feel comfortable and relaxed. That’s why we offer Happy Gas (also known as Nitrous Oxide) as a safe, effective, and easy solution to help you feel calm during your treatment.
Happy Gas is a mild sedative that helps reduce anxiety, making your dental experience stress-free. It’s quick-acting, easy to administer, and the effects wear off almost immediately after the treatment is done. No need for needles or invasive procedures—just a comfortable, relaxed visit to the dentist.
What is Happy Gas (Nitrous Oxide)?
Happy Gas, or Nitrous Oxide, is a colourless, odourless gas that has been used in dentistry for decades. It’s often referred to as “laughing gas” because it can cause a feeling of euphoria, helping you to relax. The gas is delivered through a small mask placed over your nose, and you’ll breathe it in throughout your treatment.
This safe and well-tolerated sedative works by calming the nervous system, reducing feelings of anxiety and discomfort. You will remain awake and aware during the procedure, but you’ll feel relaxed and at ease, making it ideal for patients who experience dental anxiety.
