We Know Why You Haven't Gone to the Dentist

Maybe it's been years. Maybe decades. Maybe the thought of a dental office makes your heart race and your palms sweat. Maybe you've cancelled appointments, avoided phone calls, and lived with pain rather than sit in that chair.

You're not alone. And you're not broken. You're one of the millions of people with real, valid dental anxiety — and you've just found the one clinic in Eastern Ontario that was built from the ground up to help you.

At Dental Sedation Ottawa, we don't just offer sedation as an afterthought. It's the foundation of everything we do. Our entire clinic, our team, our equipment — all of it exists so that people like you can finally get the care you need without fear.

Meet Dr. Anatolij Koniouchine

Your Dentist — Ottawa's Most Referred Sedation Dentist

For over 25 years, Dr. K has dedicated his career to one mission: making dental care possible for people who thought it never could be.

He didn't just add sedation to an existing practice — he built an entire clinic around it. Two purpose-built general anesthesia suites. Board-certified medical anesthesiologists on staff. A team trained specifically in anxiety management.

General dentists across Ottawa, Gatineau, Kingston, and Eastern Ontario refer their most anxious and complex patients to Dr. K because they trust his expertise, his infrastructure, and his results.

What 'Sedation Dentistry' Actually Means for You

You Walk In. You Wake Up. It's Done.

With general anesthesia, you're completely asleep. You don't hear the drill. You don't feel the needle. You don't see the instruments. You close your eyes and the next thing you know, you're in a comfortable recovery area and your dental work is complete.

One Visit Can Accomplish What Used to Take Many

Because you're fully sedated, Dr. K can complete hours of dental work in a single appointment — fillings, extractions, implants, crowns — all while you sleep peacefully. Fewer visits. Fewer times you have to face your fear.

Hospital-Grade Safety in a Dental Clinic

Our anesthesiologists bring the same monitoring equipment, safety protocols, and emergency training they use in hospital operating rooms. Your heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen, and breathing are monitored continuously.

A Team That Understands Your Fear

Every person on our team — from the receptionist who answers your first nervous phone call to the dental assistant who holds your hand before you fall asleep — is trained in anxiety management.

We will never rush you. We will never judge you. We will never make you feel embarrassed about the state of your teeth or how long it's been since your last visit.

This is a judgment-free clinic. We've seen it all, and the only thing we care about is helping you get healthy again.

Purpose-Built for Your Comfort

This isn't a regular dental office with sedation added on. We designed every detail of our clinic around the sedation experience:

Two dedicated general anesthesia suites with hospital-grade monitoring equipment. Private recovery bays where you wake up comfortably with your companion nearby. A calm, modern environment that feels nothing like the dental offices you remember.

We serve patients from across Ottawa, Gatineau, Kingston, Belleville, Cornwall, and throughout Eastern Ontario. Many drive hours because no other clinic offers this level of sedation infrastructure.
