Experience Dentistry with Comfort & Ease

We understand that dental visits can sometimes be stressful. That’s why we offer minimal sedation using laughing gas, also known as nitrous oxide, to help you feel calm and comfortable during treatment. Laughing gas is a safe and effective sedation option that keeps you awake and relaxed while reducing anxiety and discomfort. The effects wear off quickly, so you can get back to your day without feeling drowsy.

For comfortable, anxiety-free dental care, trust a skilled Dentist in Toronto Ontario. Contact us today to learn more about sedation options and to schedule your appointment.

Local anesthesia: reliable pain management

For most dental procedures, we use local anesthesia to ensure you feel no pain. After numbing the treatment area, the anesthetic blocks pain while keeping you fully awake. You may feel some pressure during the procedure, but not pain.

Minimal sedation with laughing gas

Laughing gas is perfect for patients who feel anxious about dental work. This minimal sedation method:

  • Helps you feel calm and relaxed during your procedure
  • Works quickly and wears off within minutes after treatment
  • Allows you to drive yourself home safely

Laughing gas is often combined with local anesthesia to keep you completely comfortable throughout your visit.

Contact us today

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

I recently chose Leaside Village Dental to take care of my teeth. My initial visit was a very thorough check up. The office is bright and welcoming. Everyone I met was open, friendly and kind. The office impressed me with their state of the art diagnostic equipment. I subsequently returned to have a leaking old filling replaced. I felt very comfortable with the entire process. I would definitely recommend this dental practice for anyone looking for a dentist.
