Kanye West’s appointment with his dentist did not go as planned, allegedly resulting in excessive NO₂ misuse. Consequently, the rapper is reportedly filing a lawsuit against the dentist, accusing him of reckless practices. The lawsuit claims that the dentist’s treatment extended far beyond standard dental procedures, impacting West’s health. Additionally, West accused the treatment of affecting his relationship with his wife, Bianca Censori.
Report claims excessive NO2 use resulted in ‘adverse neurological and behavioral signs’
The lawsuit comes at a time of heightened media scrutiny. Not only did Kanye West accuse his dentist of harmful treatment with NO₂, but he also claimed it impacted his relationship with Bianca Censori. Alleging Dr. Thomas P. Connelly of unsafe and unprofessional treatment with nitrous oxide, the rapper’s legal team has reportedly sent a formal notice of intention to sue the dentist.
As per TMZ’s exclusive report, West accused Dr. Connelly of administering “excessive amounts” of NO₂. The gas, commonly known as laughing gas, was reportedly used far beyond the bounds of legitimate medical care. According to West’s attorneys, the dentist “engaged in numerous inappropriate and dangerous practices” during West’s treatment under him. Moreover, he reportedly allowed and encouraged the musician to self-administer the gas without supervision.
Kanye West’s dentist also continued treatment despite “adverse neurological and behavioral signs.” According to the notice, the dentist abruptly “abandoned” West as a patient once he showed harmful signs. Besides “physical, psychological and financial” harm, Censori allegedly “losing out on Ye’s companionship because of the addiction.”
Meanwhile, Dr. Connelly dismissed all claims, calling them “not only factually incorrect but also intentionally misleading.” The dentist also argued that West’s representative Milo Yiannopoulos’s accounts in accusing Dr. Connelly of providing gas for money were wrong. At the same time, the dentist received the latest notice while escalating the medical dispute.
Though TMZ reported Kanye West’s dentist did not issue a detailed response as of the article’s publication, the accusation about excessive use of NO₂ probes a health hazard. West is no stranger to controversy, and the recent medical dispute is another instance that puts him at the center of media attention.
