Nitrous oxide – oxygen inhalation sedation continues to be the safest modality dentists have in providing in office sedation. As the late Dr. John Yageila is often quoted, “there has never been a death in a dental office, while dentistry is being done and nitrous oxide is the sole sedative being used.” Unfortunately, while we know the drug is safe in the episodic care of patients, some dental staff continue to be erroneously informed that they could suffer health risks from chronic, occupational exposure. This program debunks that myth.
