Dr. Allen, Dr. Neumann, and the team at Allen Family Dentistry work diligently to offer comfort and compassion because they know that there are many people who avoid medical and dental treatment due to their fear of needles and other fears. For people who do not like injections, we offer Oraqix, a topical anesthetic. For procedures not appropriate for a topical anesthetic we also offer nitrous oxide.
Needle-free, Oraqix is a topical anesthetic combining 2.5 percent lidocaine and 2.5 percent prilocaine periodontal gel. Benefits include:
Nitrous Oxide: The use of nitrous oxide, also called laughing gas, is a fast-working, painless procedure. The gas is inhaled through a small face mask and works within a matter of seconds. It bestows a sense of calm and well-being over the patient. Some patient descriptions include:
The effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly after treatment. Patients are even able to drive themselves home, and they can resume normal activities immediately.
