KANYE INTENDS TO SUE DENTIST FOR ADDICTION TO LAUGHING GAS

According to multiple sources, Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori have served a notice of intention to sue Beverly Hills dentist Dr. Thomas P. Connelly, for selling them $50,000 a month worth of nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for recreational purposes.

West alleges through his lawyers that Connelly's actions caused physical, psychological and financial issues, according to TMZ. They claim "Bianca Censori -- Kanye's wife -- was harmed in the process as well ... losing out on Ye's companionship because of the addiction."

"Ye's team claims that while he was under Connelly's care, the dentist 'engaged in numerous inappropriate and dangerous practices that were far outside the bounds of any legitimate medical purpose or standard of care.'"

"Among this alleged inappropriate behavior, Ye's side claims Connelly gave him excessive amounts of nitrous oxide for non-medical purposes, permitting and encouraging unsupervised self-administration of the gas, and continuing treatment despite 'adverse neurological and behavioral signs.'"

California law requires a notice of intention to sue a healthcare provider be served 90 days before filing a lawsuit.
