As reports, citing a press release from the musician, they accuse the self-proclaimed "Father of Diamond Dentistry" of wanting to take control of the artist's fashion and music brand.
To do this, the dentist allegedly put West and Censori out of action "with a cocktail of controlled and uncontrolled substances."
The administration of the laughing gas, which is said to have cost the rapper 50,000 dollars a month, led to "injuries and damages" to him and his wife.
In addition to neurological and physical damage, the Gold Digger artist is now said to be suffering from "psychological and emotional trauma" and a "chemical dependency which required treatment."
A spokesperson for West last year that Ye was addicted to laughing gas. Even then, the dentist was blamed for this.
"Connelly got Ye hooked on nitrous – laughing gas," his spokesperson previously .
"It is my belief that Connelly sought to diminish Ye's mental faculties so that Connelly and his business associates could extract millions of dollars from him."
The couple has sued the dentist for medical malpractice, gross negligence, fraud, exploitation, reckless administration of controlled and uncontrolled substances, and more.
