Why Laughing Gas is a Game-Changer for Kids at the Dentist?

At Smiling Stars Children Dental Hospital, we know that children are one of those things that have to deal with going to the dentist. We're here to make it even easier for your children. We offer nitrous oxide, the treatment that is known to the world as laughing gas for your kid.

Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, is a gentle and productive medication used for sedation, which allows dentists to make the patients feel more comfortable with decent dental treatment and minor surgery. The gas is mixed with oxygen and the patient is handed a small mask over their nose. American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry believes that laughing gas is a common and useful treatment without any pain which helps children to be calm, relaxed and not to feel embarrassed during dental treatment.

Why Use Laughing Gas?

Children are not all alike when it comes to dental visits; a lot of kids are anxious and apprehensive. Laughing gas soothes them. Smiling Stars Children Dental Hospital uses it because:

• It reduces anxiety-your child will be calmer, and their fears will melt away.

• It controls the pain-your child will not feel discomfort during the procedure.

• It produces a sensation of delight, and many children even feel relaxed and a little jiggly.

The best part is: the laughing gas will not render your child unconscious, so they'll still be awake to understand and follow directions and answer the dentist during the procedure.

How Does Laughing Gas work?

When your child is on laughing gas, they will be asked to breathe normally through their nose. Within a few short minutes, they may start to feel a little lightheaded - or a mild tingling in the arms and legs. Most kids describe it as a funny feeling. The sensation disappears very quickly after they stop inhaling the gas-usually in about two minutes.

Do The Effects Have Any Side Effects?

Laughing gas is very safe; however, like all treatments, there can be minor side effects. These are rare and may include:

• Nausea or vomiting

• Headache

• Sweating or shivering

• Most children experience none of these issues, and the benefit of being in a relaxed state, feeling calm, outweighs the minor risks.
