Laughing Gas at the Dentist | What to Expect from Dental Nitrous Oxide

  • Let's talk about LAUGHING GAS! What is it? How long does it last? Is it safe for all ages?
    When it comes to laughing gas, dentists need to make sure you’re healthy enough for any type of dental sedation, including nitrous oxide. Be sure to review your medical history-including any allergies you have to things like eggs, medication you’re taking, or if you’ve had recent surgery-well ahead of your planned appointment. And if you feel super congested to the point you can’t breathe out your nose, then you probably won’t be able to get laughing gas that day or will want to reschedule.
    Can you feel pain with laughing gas? Usually not. But it’s not because of the laughing gas, it’s because your dentist will still numb your tooth. Without any local anesthetic, you’ll still enjoy general relaxation from head to toe, making your brain less perceptive to uncomfortable stimuli.
    Not all dentists offer laughing gas, so be sure to ask your dental provider if nitrous oxide is an option. Some of them may not use it if they or a staff member are pregnant, for example.
    Bottom line: nitrous oxide is safe, effective, and used worldwide because of how well it works. If you have anxiety or don’t like trips to the dentist, laughing gas may be all you need to take the edge off!

    Just tried NO2 for the first time yesterday for a wisdom tooth extraction. Had severe anxiety before the appointment and requested it. Felt great the entire time, not so much giggly but more so I didn’t care what was going on. Would definitely get it again for future dental procedures.

    I went through a traumatic dental emergency that has left me feeling extremely fearful with a lot of difficulty looking at myself. Laughing gas helped me so much to forget what was going on. At first I did have a bad “dream” as it was just the incident replaying in my head while I was super sleepy from the gas. After I relaxed further it was the only way I got through my first of what may be quite a few visits to fix the trauma. I’m very grateful for it

    I have PTSD and severe anxiety, even moreso at the dentist. Anything more than an extraction, and the laughing gas is necessary and worth any additional costs if needed per your insurance. My eyes go from adult man who has experienced terrible things to as fearful as a child. It's necessary and worth it.

    Yesterday I had my first laughing gas experience. I was TRIPPING HARD. I was tingling all over, moved like I was SUPER out of balance. I was listening to Kids Bop, of course, I am a child, and I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ANIMATION. The way I was tripping made it seem like EVERYTHING WAS HUGE. The dentist's face looked unreal, and I was closing my eyes because of how relaxed I was. Don't be afraid of laughing gas. I honestly think you trip the hardest during your first experience. The procedure I was having was getting a cap on my tooth. Teeth Talk Girl, why do they take a plastic thing that has a powder mixed with water and put it in your mouth to get a mold of your teeth? I only got one cap, but they molded both top AND bottom.

    • @Fuzzysea693
      @Fuzzysea693 3 месяца назад

      They take a mould of both top and bottom so they can get an accurate bite for your cap. If the cap was too high you wouldn’t be able to close your mouth all the way; too low and you would have a gap between your top and bottom teeth.

    I’ve used nitrous for about 15ish years, maybe a bit more. Without it, the numbing doesn’t work properly. My dentist said I might be so anxious the numbing isnt able to work properly, but I’m not sure about that science haha.
    I’m autistic, and I’ve recently learned that in your brain, where you process sound is directly over where you process pain. It makes sense why noise is so painful. My guess is the sound of the drill is just so high pitched that once it hit my tooth, it messed my brain up and I thought I was in pain when I wasn’t. At least from the drilling.
    My dentist is awesome. They turn the nitrous up, let me wear my headphones so I only hear what I want to hear, and I get sunglasses. My last appointment I think I actually fell asleep! Normally I remember the pressure from the poking and prodding after the drilling, but I remember absolutely nothing. Nitrous for the win!

    I was given NO2 at my last visit to get a root canal, and I discovered at its highest setting combined with the lowest O2 setting (and my completely breathing as deep and as fast as I could because I was freaking out they were drilling a long time, but it didn’t hurt) is the perfect level to feel NOTHING. One moment I was with it, then I lost my sense of hearing except for what was going on right next to me. Music? Gone. Voices were muffled. Tunnel vision and it was getting narrower with every deep breath. Then I couldn’t feel my body at all, super muscle relaxation and my vision was wavy and focus severely diminishing. I realized I was about ready to lose consciousness (of which I didn’t care and actually enjoyed) then my hearing came back and I could start to hear the O2 sensor on my finger beeping. The dentist was calling my name and asking me questions, which slowly came into hearing focus as well. This happened twice during a 2 hour root canal.
    I can say I didn’t feel any pain at all and my anxiety was self made. The nitrous totally helped, but I will say do not hyperventilate…..it’ll be cool for a moment then you are off to another planet. lol

My last visit a few years ago had me going into full panic mode and I had to walk out. This time with the NO2, it was very manageable, still had some stress and white-knuckled a couple of times early, but I was in "la-la" land for the most part, and before I knew it, she was done.

    My experience with Nitrous Oxide is very different than what I have read from others. Mine was just complete amnesia. One moment they put the mask on me, the next moment we're done with the procedure. I was in disbelief when they were telling me they were done. It felt like I had jumped in time, but they told me I was fully alert the whole time and was even talking to them (which I had no memory of).

      @L1ttlef0ot Год назад +17

      If they are a respectable practice, the hygienist/dentist/other staff on premises won’t ask you particularly personal questions that aren’t directly related to your dental care. The most they are permitted to do is small talk (such as: “do you have any pets?” Or “how did work/school go today?” Etc.) They’re supposed to keep things on a professional level with you. If they don’t, immediately look into switching to a different provider if possible. (Source: I work in a dentist office, clerical and dental assisting). You can also have a friend or loved one come back into the exam room with you so they can recount anything that happened while you’re affected by nitrous, since you have a very unusual side effect.

    When I was ten my foster sister told me that too much laughing gas can kill you, which scared me, but one day that year I had to go to the dentist, i was terrified and when they were gonna put a laughing gas on my face I panicked and tried to leave but I had to be held down, while I kept moving my face because I didn’t want to wear it, however after that was over with I was feeling relieved . It wasn’t the mask that scared me, it was the thought of the the laughing gas killing me that i was so scared of. I’m 15 now and I still get anxiety but I don’t panic like that anymore. Anyways, it’s a nice feeling when your relaxed. Hopefully this didn’t scare anybody, it was years ago 😂

    idk who might see this but I'm going in to get two extremely eroded teeth out, they're all the way in the back on each side of my top jaw, I'm terrified because I've had one tooth removed a while ago when I was 12 (I'm almost 19 now), I had nova caine put in at my dentists office, waited 3 hours to get an emergency appointment, drove two hours to the office, and then waited hours for the surgeon, and at that point my nova caine had COMPLETELY, and I mean COMPLETELY, wore off, I told him and he said "okay okay" "just let me look around", and within seconds I had two nurses holding my shoulders to the back of the chair while he went full in, he pulled 3 times, in attempts to get it out, each followed by begging and screaming, after the crack and the pull, I went into shock and couldn't speak or think, up until the wind hit me in the parking lot, where I broke down harder than I ever have, it was horrible, I felt him reach into the socket and pull the infection out from underneath where my tooth was just 20 seconds prior, felt all four stitches too, its never left my mind and I didn't go to the dentist since, I'm terrified and my insurance said no to covering any laughing gas or IV sedation, I'm going to have to pay out of pocket, so I dont know, given my intense trauma, if I should just get laughing gas

    I’ve had it twice. The first time, I was in a comfortable haze right above sleep. I knew it could create a floating sensation. I thought that meant just floating slightly off the chair like in a rocking boat. Oh, no lol! I floated through walls and then a mile up the road and back before going 8 feet up in the air wondering how the tiny dental assistant could reach me way up there. Then I realized I never moved and went back to relaxing. She told me I was at the highest setting, so I made mental note. The second time I had it, I was relaxed but not in the hazy area. I asked for the highest setting, and then after a minute or two, I don’t remember anything till he was done. As far as I’m concerned, I was out 😴. I'm pretty sure my dentist knew it too because of the way he explained things afterwards like I had no idea what had happened. I’m normally terrified of sedation (horrible experience) although hazy relaxation isn’t bad, but I trust my dentist enough that it didn’t scare me when I was waking up and realizing I had more than expected.

    I self induced myself with about 20 whip it's while taking as little oxygen as possible. The only side effect that you get other than relaxed is it kind of looks like the light are flashing. I was still able to perform everyday things. You really feel the flashing when you close your eyes

      I got a root canal and the dentist used 2 needles. One to numb the area and another bigger one to numb the root I guess. The first one was light pinch, no biggie. The second one hurt like a $%^$%! So much that I jolted and grabbed his hand. He got soooooo pissed at me. Sorry, but it was a natural reaction to severe pain in my skull as I felt the needle hit bone or something. I won't go back to that guy. How is it my fault that he can't do the job right?

    I was VERY high on laughing gas at the dentist and still felt pretty scared an anxious. I had to talk myself through it in my head because I was confused as to what was going on. It did help the procedure but I’m not sure I prefer it over twilight. Tripping can be scary

      Yeah, I’m getting 3 fillings tomorrow and laughing gas doesn’t hardly effect me anymore, so I’m kinda high-key terrified.
      It feels like I’m just trapped inside myself… and all I am able to do is imagine one of my current fictional/celebrity crushes comforting me and talking me through it.
      Tomorrow it’s going to be Markiplier who I imagine, because he’s right now my biggest celebrity crush. I gotta go to bed now, I’m only going to get like 5-4 hours of sleep, even if I hurry. Pray for me, I’m actually really scared… I have major dentist trauma and medical trauma, as well as a horrible phobia of needles. 😢
      I’ll edit this reply with what happened later.
      Again, pray for me.
      God bless you for reading my reply, whoever did. Thanks for taking the time. 😊❤❤❤❤

    It will eat up your body's vitamin B12 stores. I wonder if dentists recommend their nitrous oxide patients supplement with B12 pills? When I was young, we used to suck out the remaining gas in whipped cream cans because it contained nitrous oxide. I wonder if they still make it that way? It only lasted a few seconds but it was fun.

    I had laughing gas for a tooth extraction once. Never, never again. Never Again! I didn't laugh at all, but instead screamed so loud and cried that the (experienced) dentist said he had never seen the experience go so wrong and thought I was going to pass out. Even when the procedure was over, I was still screaming and crying. A few years later, I was suggested by another dentist to receive laughing gas and it was a definite no. I have never had it since and still, 10 years later, look away at the medical practice that did this procedure. I have yet to be proven on myself that laughing gas can make me laugh. What was a very nervous experience turned out to be petrifying. Never again.

They use an anesthesia machine though, as you know. I know that, so I always begged to have Nitrous for cleanings, even though I did NOT need it! Well we couldn't do that once I got the tracheostomy, and ventilator unfortunately! I miss those days.I mean when I was on N20, I imagined being on Sevoflurane anesthetic! I LOVED getting N20!!! I never required it, but I BEGGED for it!
