How does dental sedation work?

Dental sedation works via multiple pathways in the brain and body.

Nitrous Oxide

In the case of laughing gas, it offers a 3 pronged mechanism to make dental care comfortable:

• Anxiolytic: This means laughing gas has an anti-anxiety effect induced by increasing activity in certain receptors of the brain.
• Analgesic: This is a painkiller effect induced by increasing certain pain blockers in the body.
• Euphoric: This is a euphoric feeling caused by dopamine being released in the brain in response to the nitrous oxide gas being administered.

Which Dental Sedation Option Is Best?

There is no best dental sedation option across the board. Best is determined on a case by case basis and takes into consideration age, overall health, and treatment.

Generally, the least amount of sedation required to complete treatment is best, however in some complex oral surgery or wisdom tooth cases, the best option is in hospital treatment or general anesthesia.
