Dentistry Asleep, led by
Dr. Peter Copp, is a specialized dental practice located at 1235 Bay St. #305, Toronto, ON, Canada. Dr. Copp is a
Certified Specialist in
Dental Anesthesia, a distinction that allows him to provide a unique service where patients can receive extensive dental treatment while completely comfortable and unaware, often through general anesthesia or deep sedation. This approach is particularly beneficial for individuals, both adults and children, who experience dental anxiety, have complex dental needs, or require lengthy procedures.
Dr. Copp's expertise extends beyond just anesthesia; he offers a wide array of dental services, including
fillings,
root canal treatments,
crowns,
Dental Implants, and extractions. His practice emphasizes safety and patient comfort, providing a milder form of general anesthesia compared to typical hospital settings, with fewer medications and lower doses, and without the need for a breathing tube. He has over 35 years of experience in the field, with a strong reputation for providing excellent dentistry and safe anesthesia.
His background includes a Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Toronto (1980) with honors, and an Anesthesia Degree from the University of Toronto and Hospital For Sick Children (1984). He is a Diplomat of the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology and holds Fellowship status with the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology. Dr. Copp was also among the first general dentists in Canada trained in Nobel implant prosthetics and surgery, contributing to his ability to predictably and comfortably help patients regain lost teeth. He also dedicates a day each week to teaching and research at the University of Toronto's Department of Anaesthesia and Paediatric Dentistry, further cementing his commitment to maintaining excellence in
dental care. Many of his patients are referred by other dentists who trust his specialized skills in dental care under anesthesia.
