Laughing Gas is one of the safest and the lightest forms of sedation available. It is non-allergenic and non-irritating. The gas also tends to reduce gag reflexes and saliva flow.
A small mask will be placed over the patient’s nose and adjusted so that the patient is comfortable. The dentist will gradually introduce the laughing gas. Once the patient feels completely relaxed, the procedure will begin. Patients will feel totally relaxed during their treatment when sedated with laughing gas.
During all sedation appointments, the blood pressure and pulse are continually monitored on our patients. In addition, we monitor the oxygen saturation levels of the blood with a pulse oximeter that gently clips onto the finger.

Greatest dentist and staff ever. Always the best service and care.
I've been seeing Dr. Schott for 14 years. I've moved away from the island, but him and his awesome staff are well worth the hour drive every time!
It's worth my family's hour travel to get the best care. Dr. Schott and his staff are wonderful.
Dr. Schott does excellent and professional dental work. I switched to him from another dentist I had been seeing for 25+ yrs!! His office staff and dental assistant couldn't be nicer... Courteous and oh so friendly!! I will continue to travel out of my way (a half an hour further) for this exceptional team, well worth it!!
Due to my past experiences with dentists I arrived with no expectations. I left with complete and utter satisfaction with the entire experience from start to finish. Everyone here was just wonderful!
Truly gentle dentistry, Dr. Schott is pleasant and personable, as are all the folks on his staff.
