2. A VELscope will help identify
oral cancer and premalignant
dysplasia, as well as trauma
in your mouth caused by
smoking and other problems.
This procedure is especially
important given the rising
rates of oral cancer: 1 person
per hour will die from it in
North America this year.

3. CompositeComposite Fillings
Keep your beautiful white
teeth with our composite
fillings. We’ve got 30 shades of
white (not grey, we promise),
and they are mercury- and
BPA-free!
4. Invisalign
Got a “bad bite”, crowded, or
crooked teeth? Our Kelowna
dentists can fix that while
letting you continue to smile
confidently with our clear
Invisalign braces!
5. Crowns
Have a broken or worn
down tooth and can’t decide
between a white and gold
crown? The team at Okanagan
Smiles will help you
understand the best option
for your tooth or bridge and
then prepare your tooth for a
custom-made crown.
6. Extractions
Accidents happen! Our
Kelowna dentists have
experience in removing
hundreds of teeth, and they’ll
provide the maximum of
comfort and care for all their
patients. For anxious patients,
we offer oral sedation if you
need a bit of help to relax.
7. Digital Complete
Dentures
Digital complete dentures
means fewer visits, better
materials, and bigger smiles!
Dentures are irreplaceable
when your teeth are failing,
so if you need them, be sure
to call us and ask about the
procedure.
8. Implants
Implants provide a
comfortable support to
crowns and removable
restorations, and help
you retain bone that may
otherwise be lost. If you’re
missing teeth, ask us if
implants can help you.
9. Soft Tissue Laser
Laser dentistry is the newest
and biggest advance in
painless dentistry. We can
use it to shape gums in smile
design, adjust tissue to help
dentures fit, or to release
tongue-tied tongues or lips.
10. Periodontal Treatment
Our Kelowna dental clinic
will set you up with the
perfect custom-made plan
to make sure your gums
are as healthy as possible.
Treatments can involve laser
therapy, rinses, ultrasonic
cavitron equipment, scaling/
root planing, direct antibiotic
treatement and more.
11. Bridges
Bridges are a solution to
missing teeth that uses your
existing teeth or implants to
anchor a replacement. They
look and feel very natural!
12. Mini Implants
Mini Implants are smaller
and less invasive than full
implants, and give great
support to full or partial
dentures.
13. Digital X-Rays
With advanced digital x-rays,
our Kelowna dental clinic can
detect decay long before we
used to. We’ll take one with
each new patient or every 5
years with existing patients
to ensure we catch dental
problems as early as possible.
14. Diagnodent
A diagnodent is a device that
uses wavelengths to shine
light into the tooth and find
cavities way before the decay
is big enough to hurt or cause
a huge cavity. We use it to
get to the problem before the
problem gets to you!
15. Sealants
Sealants are barriers placed
deep in the grooves on the
chewing surface to help block
out cavity causing bugs.
Newly erupted teeth are
extremely susceptible to tooth
decay—our Kelowna dentists
recommend it for protecting
your children’s previous teeth,
and even for adults who are
still subject to tooth decay.
16. Air Abrasion
Do you hate needles or
drills? For decay that isn’t too
close to a nerve, we can use
air abrasion to get rid of it
instead.
17. Dental Magnification
Loupes
Excellent dental care requires
precision and accuracy. We
use “loupes”, glasses that
allow us to see six times
larger, to ensure comfort for
physician AND patient.
18. Root Canal Treatment
Trauma or large cavities can
cause a tooth’s nerves to die,
which leaves us the option of
removing a tooth or saving it
with a root canal. It involves
cleaning, shaping, and filling
the canals of the tooth.
19. Teeth Whitening
We offer trays, pens, and
in-office teeth whitening
treatments to help you get
your smile shining in a way
suitable to your lifestyle.
