Nitrous Oxide

This clinical handbook is a complete guide to the use of nitrous oxide when performing dental procedures in children. Nitrous oxide offers the easiest and safest form of pharmacological behavior management in this age group and can help greatly in reducing fear and anxiety toward dentists and dental treatment. Importantly, its use in children differs from that in adults, owing in part to the need for appropriate behavior management skills.

"Stars of the Lid may have released two of the most important and influential ambient-drone albums of the 21st century, inspiring generations of musicians, authors, artists, and filmmakers, developing a cult following and near-mythic status, but back in 1995 they were nowhere. Well, not exactly nowhere, they were in Austin, Texas, to be precise, a city that Adam Wiltzie describes as a “rock and roll village, mostly… We were 100% in a vacuum and there was absolutely nobody that even remotely enjoyed what we were doing.”

"Music for Nitrous Oxide" is the debut studio album by the American ambient duo Stars of the Lid, released in 1995 on Sedimental Records. The album features minimal, droning compositions created using a Yamaha MT120 4-track cassette recorder, capturing a lo-fi, home-recorded aesthetic. It was produced by Neal Weinberg and is considered a foundational work in the ambient and drone genres .​
