To achieve this, we ensure that every aspect of your visit, from the friendly staff to the environment is calming and relaxing. In addition to offering you sedation options, We use noise-canceling headphones to block the sound of the tools used by the dentist. Dark glasses are also available to protect your eyes and keep you blissfully unaware of the procedure. After your treatment, a warm, lavender-scented towel will give you the blissful feeling that you have taken good care of yourself.

What Is Laughing Gas?
MINIMALLY INHALED SEDATION
Minimally inhaled sedation uses nitrous oxide to help relax you. It is a colorless, non-flammable gas that produces an euphoric effect, hence the nickname, laughing gas.
HOW IT’S USED
A plastic mask will be placed over your nose and mouth. You will simply breathe normally as the gas fills the mask.
THE EFFECTS
After the gas has taken effect, you will begin to feel relaxed, calm, and happy. The effects will wear off quickly so you’ll be able to go about your day after treatment.
Do You Have Questions About Sedation?
DO YOU FEEL ANY PAIN WHILE APPLYING MINIMALLY INHALED SEDATION?
No, the sedation process is completely painless. It’s as easy as breathing! You’ll simply inhale the sedative through the nose mask, no needles or syringes required at our San Francisco practice.
HOW LONG DOES MINIMALLY INHALED SEDATION LAST?
After Dr. Stein removes the facemask to begin your dental treatment, the effects will slowly start to wear off. By the time your procedure is complete, you will likely be feeling back to normal!
Am I A Good Candidate For Sedation Dentistry?
There are many reasons why patients may be interested in sedation dentistry in San Francisco. Whether you have dental anxiety, have a strong gag reflex, or simply find it difficult to sit for extended periods of time, you may be able to benefit from minimally inhaled sedation from our practice at 450 Sutter.
If you have avoided visits to the dentist due to a fear of needles or dental anxiety in general, we can help! Dr. Stein can help you overcome these fears and will keep you informed throughout treatment.
Patients with special needs and sensitivities to stimuli including light, sound, or certain textures may be great candidates for sedation.
Patients who find it hard to relax or sit still during an appointment may also be able to benefit from minimally inhaled sedation. Your restlessness will subside and Dr. Stein will be able to complete your treatment with ease.
