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.

Read Why Our Patients Love Us

As a person whose entire life, has been a struggle with crippling anxiety just walking in the front door of a dentist office. I can tell you there is something different and wonderful about Brinda Nair, as a care giver, they have the care and the giving part down pat. Moreover nothing feels painted on, there’s no contrivances, they’re trustworthy with their words and clear with their actions. Put it this way, I moved almost one hour away from the office and still make the commute because it’s worth it to me. She has made a real and lasting difference in my life. Jerry Wheat.

Serenity has the kindest employees, cleanest facility and most efficient work. Esme and I always have fun and relevant conversations and she is the fiercest hygienist with the most gentle touch. The whole team - I LOVE ‘em!!! If you are considering making this your dentist of choice, DO IT!...

I just spent nearly four hours at Serenity Dental, and somehow it felt more like a mini-vacation than a dental appointment — that’s how exceptional this place is. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere truly lived up to the name Serenity. The environment is calming, beautifully maintained, and honestly unlike any dental office I’ve ever been to. Dr. Brinda Nair is in a league of her own. Her skill, patience, and attention to detail made even a long, complex visit feel effortless. She explained everything clearly, checked in throughout the procedure, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. You can tell she genuinely cares about both the results and the patient experience. The staff deserves huge recognition as well — warm, attentive, and incredibly professional. They treat you like a person, not a chart, and that makes all the difference. If you’re looking for dental care that feels luxurious, peaceful, and truly patient-centered, this is the place. Four hours in this office felt like time well spent, and I left not only with great results but feeling relaxed — something I’ve never said after a dental appointment. Absolutely recommend Serenity Dental and Dr. Nair to anyone looking for top-tier care. don't grind when you see cuteness or else you'll need mouth guard

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.
