We performed nitrous oxide delivery on one another
today. Ive only used NO2 in a dental office once, and I lost faith in
it when it didnt make any difference to my level of comfort. It turns
out that when you get the appropriate ratio of NO2 to O2 (for me, its
2.5 lpm of NO2 to 5 lpm of oxygen), you most definately feel the
difference. It isnt disputable. I immediately started laughing and
then the more I laughed the more I wanted to. I thought of the scene in
Mary Poppins where everyone is floating in the air and singing "I love
to Laugh." It was a good time. I now feel more confident that NO2 can
take away tensions that may arise for patients when they come in for
dental treatment. Today has been lots of laughs.
I LOVE being with these girls and our professors. They are a hoot!
