Experience Dentistry Without Stress or Anxiety
At Dentistry @ Queenston, we focus on keeping you comfortable and pain-free during every procedure. We provide safe, effective options to reduce or eliminate discomfort, tailored to your treatment plan and personal needs.
Local Anesthetic (Freezing)
This is the most common and dependable method for numbing a specific area of the mouth. A topical gel is applied first, followed by a careful injection of local anesthetic to “freeze” the area. You may feel slight pressure, but no pain.
Laughing Gas (Nitrous Oxide) Sedation
Ideal for patients who feel nervous or prefer a more relaxed experience. You will inhale this mild sedative through a soft nose mask, staying awake and able to communicate while feeling calm and at ease. Laughing gas is often combined with local freezing for complete comfort, and its effects wear off quickly so you can return to normal activities soon after your visit.
