A. Laughing gas is another name for nitrous oxide conscious sedation. It is an excellent and safe way to relax a fearful patient. Nitrous oxide mixed with oxygen is delivered to the patient through a nose piece. The dentist can regulate how much the patient gets and the patient can control the effect with his breathing. The patient is awake but relaxed and responsive.
