Ence Dentistry offers nitrous oxide at our office on Main Street in St. George, Utah, for patients from all over Southern Utah. Call (435) 628-2667 or book online.
What nitrous oxide is
Nitrous oxide, often called laughing gas, is a mild sedative you breathe through a small mask over your nose. It helps you feel calm while you stay awake and can talk to us.
Who it helps
- Patients who feel nervous about the dentist
- Longer visits
- People with a strong gag reflex
- Kids and adults
After your visit
The effects wear off within minutes after the mask comes off, so most people can drive themselves home.
We're in network with many dental plans and will help you use your benefits. We also offer an extended payment plan with interest-free options, and CareCredit.
