Laughing gas?? :(
Okay so on Wednesday (Jan. 30, 2008) I'm getting 5 baby teeth pulled out. My dentist said he was gonna use novicaine (sp?) and laughing gas. I'm so scared! I don't care about the novicaine, but laughing gas?? Is it supposed to put me to sleep? I'm so nervous I feel like I'll freak out as I'm falling asleep! How does it feel? Do you just get drowsy and eventually fall asleep? Does this mean I'll feel no pain when they yank out the 5 teeth? AHH help me! I don't want to be so scared.

So, in my sixteen years of living, I have seriously had like 20 teeth extracted from my mouth. So I have lots of experience with laughing gas. And novocaine is just a huge pain in the ass. And you will hate it once the dental procedure is over. Personally though, I'm not a huge fan of laughing gas whatsoever. It tickles my nose. I feel way too relaxed, and you'll just feel so...floaty. Not at all sleepy, so nothing to worry about there. And no, you will not feel any pain at all when getting the teeth yanked. You might physically feel when they are coming out, or you might hear some crunching noises, but it will not hurt at all. So no need to be scared. The laughing gas will relax you.

laughing gas is AWESOME. i'm not going to lie... i look forward to it. it's just like being in a dream- you feel light as air, and you could not care less what the doctors are doing. you might feel a little pressure in your mouth when they're pulling the teeth... but really, once they put you on it, within a few minutes you are in the best mood ever and seriously could not care about whatever else is going on. it doesn't put you to sleep... you may fall asleep (like i do), but it's not an actual anesthetic. they put you on the laughing gas before they do the numbing shots, so you can't really even feel the shots. you will feel very little or no pain at all. i can't really describe how it feels any further, but it's like better than sleeping in. whenever i go to the dentist for a simple cleaning, i ask if they can put me on laughing gas because i love it! there's probably not anything we can say that will calm your nerves, but once they give you the laughing gas you will definitely calm down. i hope all goes well :)

With the laughing gas, you feel no pain.
You get drowsy and just go into a deep sleep, and a lot of times have weird dreams, haha.
But with novacaine and laughing gas, no pain will be felt during the procedure- but I can't say the same about after it is done.
Maybe after take some pain relievers, and sleep off the pain
good luck!

It feels like a legal way of being high. It's nice, I've had it when I had dental work done. Don't worry about it.
