Happy Gas (Relative Analgesia)

Dr Angelo Preketes offers Happy Gas, Relative Analgesia to patients.

Happy Gas (Nitrous Oxide) or Relative Analgesia is a sweet-smelling gas that has analgesic (pain relieving) properties that also alleviates anxiety. Nitrous oxide is mixed with oxygen through a small nasal hood that sits over your nose, all you have to do is breathe normally until you reach a therapeutic effect. It is safe and effective for children and adults and makes having dental treatment easier as your anxieties subside. Your blood oxygen saturation levels and heart rate are monitored and tracked throughout the entire procedure. There is no down time with Nitrous Oxide once treatment is completed the happy gas leaves your system in approximately five minutes and you can continue on with your day.

Dr Angelo Preketes is extremely proficient in the safe and effective administration of Nitrous Oxide and teaches dentists, dental students and doctors’ how to use nitrous oxide around Australia and internationally.
