Nitrous oxide is administered by flowing the desired N20 - O2 mixture through a nasal mask via a double tube system. One tube is for the flow of the gases into the mask to breathe in, the second is a scavenger to suck the waste gas away.
There are no contraindications to nitrous oxide in healthy children. Some children with inherited or acquired respiratory conditions may not be suitable for this type of relaxation therapy. As it is necessary to breathe through the nose, nitrous oxide sedation is not suitable for children who have a cold or some other condition which prevents them from breathing through their nose. You can't be allergic to nitrous oxide.
As most children require time to adjust and familiarise to a new surrounding, treatment will only be carried out on the first visit if there is a need for emergency care to reduce pain or infection.
