Questions about services

All of this is done together and we seek to ensure you understand everything before we move forward with treatments or services.
One of the greatest fears people have coming to the dentist is the uncertainty as to what will it cost. This is why we here at Totally Smiles Mackay work with you - just like we do with the treatments themselves - to answer your questions as to what may be covered and what might not be, so that there are never any surprises when it comes to payment at the end - just a smiling patient.
Nitrous oxide, commonly known as "happy” or “laughing gas," has been proven to reduce anxiety for most dental procedures. It is a mild form of sedation that flows through a comfortably fitting mask that rests over your nose and is a mixture of nitrous oxide and pure oxygen that doesn’t smell and creates a feeling of relaxation during treatment.
This feeling of relaxation that can make ordinary things seem funnier, thus the nickname happy gas.
This is considered a “mild” sedation, so you won’t experience any short-term memory loss as you may with other forms of sedation, and once turned off, the sedation wears away very quickly with no lasting effects. This all said, get in touch with our Mackay dental team about happy gas to see if it might be right for your next visit.
