Sedation dentistry for Orléans families

Why Orléans Families Choose Dental Sedation Ottawa

Orléans has grown tremendously over the past two decades, and there's no shortage of dental offices along St. Joseph Boulevard, Innes Road, and throughout the Place d'Orléans area. So why do so many Orléans residents choose our clinic on Montréal Road?

Because we specialize in what they need most.

While Orléans dentists provide excellent general care, few have the infrastructure for deeper sedation. When dental anxiety has kept you away for years, when your child with special needs requires specialized care, or when you need extensive treatment completed efficiently, you need a practice built specifically for sedation dentistry.

What Sets Us Apart:

Board-certified medical anesthesiologists on staff — Dr. Hesham Talab (MD MSc PhD FRCPC FASE) and Dr. Asad Mirghassemi (MD MSc FRCPC) provide hospital-grade anesthesia care
Two dedicated general anesthesia suites — Purpose-built for dental sedation with full medical monitoring
25+ years of sedation expertise — Dr. Koniouchine has performed thousands of sedation procedures
Complete treatment in one visit — Years of neglected dental work addressed while you sleep
Bilingual care — Dr. Koniouchine is fluent in both English and French, serving Orléans' Francophone community

For Orléans residents who've struggled with dental anxiety or need more than a typical dental practice can offer, we're conveniently close and comprehensively equipped.

Special Considerations for Orléans Patients

Bilingual French-English Care

Orléans has one of the largest Francophone populations in Ottawa, and many residents prefer receiving healthcare in French. Dr. Koniouchine is fluent in French, and our team provides fully bilingual service. Whether you're more comfortable discussing treatment en français or in English, we accommodate your preference.

Catch-Up Dentistry for Busy Families

Orléans families juggle packed schedules—kids' hockey at Ray Friel, soccer at Millennium Park, activities at Shenkman Arts Centre, and everything in between. If dental care has fallen to the bottom of the list, we can complete years of treatment in one or two sedation appointments rather than disrupting your calendar for months.

Pediatric Sedation for Anxious Children

Orléans has many young families, and children's dental anxiety is common. Rather than traumatic experiences at practices that aren't equipped for fearful kids, we offer gentle sedation that creates positive associations with dental care. Many Orléans parents prefer our specialized approach.

Special Needs Dentistry

For families caring for loved ones with autism, developmental disabilities, or cognitive challenges, our anesthesiologists are experienced with special needs patients. Schools and community services throughout Orléans refer families to us when local practices can't provide appropriate care.

Seniors from Orléans Retirement Communities

We work with families from Orléans' retirement residences and long-term care facilities to provide dignified dental care for elderly patients, including those with dementia or mobility challenges.

Serving All Orléans Communities

We welcome patients from every corner of Orléans, including:

Avalon & Notting Gate

Orléans' newest communities along Trim Road are home to young families who value efficiency. Parents balancing work and children's activities appreciate our ability to complete comprehensive treatment in single visits.

Chapel Hill & Fallingbrook

These established family neighborhoods along Innes Road and Jeanne d'Arc Boulevard have been part of Orléans for decades. Long-time residents who've avoided dental care find our judgment-free approach welcoming.

Convent Glen & Orleans Wood

The heart of Orléans, close to Place d'Orléans and St. Joseph Boulevard. Residents here have convenient access to our clinic—one of the easiest drives among our East Ottawa communities.

Queenswood Heights & Hiawatha Park

These mature neighborhoods near the Orléans-Gloucester boundary offer easy access via Innes Road. Many families from this area have been patients for years.

Blackburn Hamlet

While technically part of Gloucester, many Blackburn Hamlet residents consider themselves part of the Orléans community. Easy access via Innes Road makes reaching us straightforward.

Navan & Cumberland

Our rural neighbors to the east make the drive for specialized sedation services unavailable in their communities. We're a straightforward trip down Regional Road 174.

What Our Patients Say

★★★★★ 5.0 out of 5 stars · 287 reviews
★★★★★

"J'ai évité le dentiste pendant des années à cause de mon anxiété. Quand j'ai découvert que le Dr Koniouchine parle français et offre la sédation complète, j'ai finalement pris rendez-vous. C'était la meilleure décision. Tout mon travail dentaire a été complété en deux visites, sans stress."

— Patient d'Orléans

★★★★★

"Living in Avalon with three kids means our schedule is insane. The idea of multiple dental appointments for myself was impossible. Here, I had IV sedation, got everything done in one visit, and was back to driving carpool within 48 hours. So much easier than I expected."

— Avalon Parent

★★★★★

"My elderly father lives in an Orléans retirement home and has dementia. Most dentists wouldn't see him. This practice treated him with such compassion and professionalism. The sedation kept him calm and comfortable. We're so grateful."

— Orléans Family Member

★★★★★

"I work from home in Chapel Hill and had been putting off dental work for 6 years. I found every excuse. When a tooth cracked, I couldn't avoid it anymore. The team here was so understanding—no judgment, just solutions. I had general anesthesia and woke up with a new smile."

— Chapel Hill Resident
