Sedation Dentistry in Austin & Round Rock, TX

Gentle, Stress-Free Dental Care at Forest Family Dentistry

At Forest Family Dentistry, we understand that dental anxiety is common and that visiting the dentist can feel overwhelming for many patients. That is why we offer sedation dentistry in Austin and Round Rock using safe, effective nitrous oxide sedation, also known as laughing gas. This mild form of sedation helps patients feel calm, relaxed, and comfortable during their dental visits.

Whether you are coming in for a routine cleaning, a filling, or another treatment, nitrous oxide sedation can make your appointment easier and more positive from start to finish.

What is Nitrous Oxide Sedation?

Nitrous oxide sedation is a gentle, inhaled sedative administered through a small, comfortable nosepiece during your appointment. It reduces anxiety, creates a sense of relaxation, and helps you receive necessary dental care while you remain full awake and able to communicate with your dental team.

Key Benefits of Nitrous Oxide:

  • Fast Acting with Quick Recovery - The calming effects begin within minutes and fade quickly after the nosepiece is removed, allowing you to return to normal activities right away.
  • Safe for Adults and Children - Nitrous oxide has been safely used in dentistry for decades and is suitable for patients of nearly all ages.
  • Ideal for Dental Anxiety - Helps reduce fear, nervousness, and tension before and during dental treatments.
  • No Needles or Oral Medications - Completely non invasive and easy to administer.
  • Makes Dental Visits more Comfortable - Supports a more relaxed experience for routine procedures, restorative treatment, and longer appointments.
