You can receive gentle laughing gas to help you relax. This safe, effective sedation works quickly to create a sense of calm while keeping you fully conscious. The effects wear off within minutes after treatment. You can drive yourself home and resume normal activities right away.

Unlike other types of sedation, laughing gas is even safe for use with children.

Your comfort extends to every aspect of your visit. Our treatment rooms have soothing amenities like headphones for calming music, glasses to protect your eyes from bright light, soft pillows for neck support, and blankets to keep you warm.

Our team explains each step of your treatment in simple terms and welcomes all questions, so you feel informed and in control throughout your appointment.

Read Why Our Patients Love Us

I do not go to the dentist. The Navy dentists made me scared of doctors in general. This place and these Ladies (all i saw were females) were literally the most gentle and accommodating oral health providers EVER. They are an hour from my house and after my initial visit, my wife is also going to drive an hour away just to go to the RIGHT dentist, not just THE dentist. Serenity is the RIGHT one for me, if be willing to bet its the right one for you.

C. S. (Verified Patient)

Very competent, well organized and friendly. They are are committed as a team to offer the highest level of dental care.

Just went in for the last cleaning of the year. Wonderful experience and my mouth feels so good. Serenity Dental does excellent work and the more often I go the more often I find it is more like a visit to friends combined with a visit to my Dentist. Thank you Ladies!

M. H. (Verified Patient)

The office staff and Drs are always very personable. They are very thorough from the time you step in until you leave. I always feel comfortable and well taken care of.

T. B. (Verified Patient)

I had an excellent experience at Serenity Dental. From the moment I walked in, the receptionist, Anastasia, greeted me warmly and made the check-in process smooth and stress-free. She was friendly, professional, and very helpful in answering all my initial questions. My dental care was provided by Dr. Nair and Dr. Rao, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Both dentists were highly professional, attentive, and took the time to explain every step of the treatment in detail, which really helped me feel at ease. They were gentle, patient, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. The clinic itself is clean, modern, and welcoming, which added to the overall positive experience. I truly felt like I was in good hands, and I left with complete confidence in the care I received. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for skilled dentists and a friendly, supportive staff.

A. M. (Verified Patient)

As a dental hygienist myself I can wholeheartedly say that Dr. Nair does excellent dental work. I’ve had very thorough and gentle cleanings by her and her hygienists as well as had a filling placed on one of my front teeth due to a chip in a very visible area and it is seamless with my natural tooth. The color match is perfect. I can also say that the equipment used here is top notch. I choose to get my cleanings done every 4 months and I get them done at the office I work at and here because I trust their work. I’ve been coming here for several years now and Dr. Nair and her team have not changed in their kind nature and fair prices.10/10 would recommend.

A. C. (Verified Patient)

Esme, Dr. Nair, and the entire team always provide top-tier care. From the moment I walk in, I feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for. Their professionalism and kindness make every visit easy, and I always know I’m in great hands. I could not recommend them enough!

M. D. (Verified Patient)

I always enjoy my appointments. Everyone is so friendly, they remember who you are and that always makes coming to the dentist a pleasant experience!

H. R. (Verified Patient)

Everyone is so kind and helpful! Elizabeth did a fantastic job of cleaning and telling me care information to make sure my teeth stay with me forever!

V. S. (Verified Patient)

everyone was so sweet and my cleaning was great! they also gave a cost rundown prior to even checking in which feels unheard of (in the best way!!)

N. H. (Verified Patient)

What is laughing gas and how does it work?

Laughing gas is a mild sedative inhaled through a small mask over your nose. It creates feelings of relaxation and well-being within minutes. You remain conscious and can respond to questions, but feel less anxious. The effects disappear quickly after treatment, allowing you to drive yourself home.

What if I haven't been to the dentist in years due to anxiety?

We welcome patients regardless of how long it's been since their last visit. We'll start with a gentle, no-pressure consultation to understand your concerns. Many anxious patients begin with simple cleanings to build confidence before addressing more extensive needs. We move at your comfort level without judgment.

How can I prepare for my appointment to minimize anxiety?

Schedule your appointment during a low-stress time of day. Avoid caffeine before your visit and practice deep breathing exercises to use during treatment. Be honest about your fears when speaking with our team and consider a brief pre-appointment visit just to meet the staff and see the office environment.
