At Brisman Dental, we understand that dental visits can be stressful for many patients. Our goal is to create a calm, stress-free environment where everyone feels at ease. One of the most effective ways we help patients relax is by offering nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas. Dr. David Brisman and Dr. Jason Brisman use this safe and reliable sedation method to make your experience as comfortable as possible.
Our dentists and team provide nitrous oxide sedation in Manhattan, New York, to help patients manage dental anxiety and receive the care they need with confidence. Whether you are nervous about a procedure or have had a previous negative dental experience, nitrous oxide can help you feel more at ease during your visit.
How Nitrous Oxide Works
Nitrous oxide is a colorless, odorless gas that is administered through a small mask placed over your nose. As you breathe in the gas, you begin to feel light, calm and often happy. You remain awake and responsive throughout the procedure, but with significantly reduced anxiety.
One of the most convenient aspects of nitrous oxide is that its effects wear off quickly after the mask is removed. Most patients can resume their normal activities shortly after the appointment without lingering drowsiness or side effects.
Benefits of using nitrous oxide include:
- Quick onset and easy administration
- No needles or oral medications needed
- Reduces anxiety and enhances comfort
- Safe for children and adults
- Effects wear off within minutes after the procedure
A Patient-Centered Approach
Our team takes the time to discuss all sedation options with you before beginning any treatment. If you choose nitrous oxide, we will closely monitor you throughout your procedure to ensure your safety and comfort. We tailor each experience to the individual, adjusting the sedation level to suit your needs.
Many of our patients find that once they have experienced nitrous oxide, their fear of dental appointments decreases over time. This positive experience often leads to more consistent visits and improved long-term oral health.
