It is possible using the technology of Nitrous oxide sedation.

WHAT TO EXPECT

If you are looking for comfortable dentistry in Delhi NCR, then INDIADENS is the best dental clinic that offers the facility of oral conscious sedation.

It is usual to have two or more appointments. At the first appointment (assessment), your full dental and medical history is evaluated and the methods of providing dental treatment would be explained (with or without conscious sedation).

If you agree to undergo the dental treatment under inhalation sedation, then it is performed in the second appointment.

If any further information/consultation is required, then your general medical practitioner or specialist is contacted.

It is an excellent modality to make your dental procedures extremely comfortable. It can be used in procedures like dental implants, wisdom teeth extraction, minor oral surgeries, smile designing, veneers, crowns and bridges, root canal treatments.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN DURING THE SEDATION PROCEDURE?

It is carried out by making you inhale a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen (laughing gas or happy air) through a small nose piece fitted onto your nose.
Once you are sedated, and feel drowsy and relaxed, the dentist may numb the site of dental treatment. A numbing gel, followed by an injection may be used to reduce the chances of any discomfort.
When the dental treatment is completed, the nitrous oxide mixture is stopped and replaced by oxygen. The nosepiece is taken off, and you are made to sit up in the dentist’s chair and will continue to recover for a few minutes.
You can leave the surgery/dental practice once you have fully recovered. This usually takes about 30 minutes after the treatment has ended. The doctor or a member of the dental team monitors you during the recovery.
