Solutions for Anxious Patients

At Ottawa West Dental, we provide nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to help our more nervous or anxious patients feel more at ease during treatment.

What type of sedation options do we offer our patients?

We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to our patients who experience anxiety during dental appointments.

What is nitrous oxide?

Nitrous oxide is used as a sedation to help you relax before your dental procedure. It does not relieve pain, so an anesthetic is also administered.

How do I get nitrous oxide at my next appointment?

If you are feeling anxious or nervous about your next visit to the dentist, you can make our receptionist aware. We will make arrangements to help you feel comfortable with the customized dental plans and procedures you need.

Please feel free to ask your dental professional about your first visit, especially if you are feeling anxious, and want more information about sedation options.
