Gentle, Anxiety-Free Dentistry with Nitrous Gas Sedation

At sherway dentistry, we believe in providing quality care with convenient solutions for those in and around the area of Etobicoke and Mississauga, Ontario. We know that visiting the dentist can be a stressful experience for many patients. Anxiety may keep patients from receiving the treatments they require for a healthier smile. Instead, we encourage patients to visit our practice, where they can obtain comprehensive dental care in conjunction with Nitrous Gas.

Nitrous Gas is a method of relaxation that can provide patients with a positive experience at the dental office regardless of the procedure they will undergo.

Nitrous Gas is commonly referred to as laughing gas which provides a mild form of sedation. The gas is administered through a mask on the nose that provides almost instant relaxation. Nitrous gas is followed by the administration of oxygen to neutralize the gas and eliminate any lingering effects. We want our patients to be relaxed and comfortable in our dental office at all times, even if they have a history of dental anxieties before!

Nitrous gas can be used for patients of all ages. It can help not only with dental anxieties, but can allow patients to complete more complex services in fewer appointments. It is also beneficial for claustrophobic patients or those with a strong gag reflex, which can make dental visits incredibly uncomfortable.

If you reside in the area of Etobicoke and Mississauga, Ontario and want to speak with a dental professional in regards to integrating nitrous gas into your next dental visit, contact the team of sherway dentistry today at 416-639-2546. Our front office team welcomes new and existing patients ready to achieve the smile of their dreams while also eliminating dental fears which may be inhibiting them from seeking treatment.

Summary

For many people, dental visits can bring up feelings of stress or anxiety — but they don’t have to. At Sherway Dentistry, we offer Nitrous Gas sedation to help patients feel comfortable, relaxed, and fully at ease throughout their appointment. This mild, fast-acting form of sedation allows you to stay awake and aware while removing the fear, tension, or discomfort that may have held you back from receiving the care you need. Whether you struggle with dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, claustrophobia, or simply want a more comfortable experience, Nitrous Gas can make every visit easier and more positive.

Questions & Answers

If you’re considering Nitrous Gas for your next appointment, you may have questions about how it works and what to expect. Here are helpful answers to some of the most common patient concerns.

Nitrous Gas, often called “laughing gas,” is a mild sedative inhaled through a small nasal mask. It creates a relaxed, calming sensation that helps reduce anxiety and makes dental treatment feel much more comfortable.

Most patients feel its effects within minutes. Once the mask is removed and pure oxygen is administered, the sedative wears off just as quickly — allowing you to safely return to your day.

No. Nitrous Gas keeps you relaxed yet awake and responsive. You can still communicate with your dental team and remain fully aware throughout your appointment.

Yes. Nitous Gas is one of the safest and most widely used sedation options for children. It can help reduce fear, improve comfort, and make longer or more complex visits easier.

Patients with dental anxiety, a sensitive gag reflex, claustrophobia, or difficulty sitting comfortably for longer appointments often find Nitrous Gas extremely helpful.
