Laughing gas, or inhalation sedation, is a form of light sedation and is typically offered to young patients or those with mild anxiety in the dental chair. For laughing gas sedation, a colorless, odor-free gas is administered through a mask that fits comfortably over your nose ad mouth. Dr. Luker carefully monitors the amount of gas used to provide a safe comfortable level of sedation. Patients will remain awake and able to follow instructions throughout their treatment.
