Don Belke graduated from Loma Linda University School of Dentistry in Southern California in 1989. After practicing as an Associate dentist in Santa Barbara, Dr. Belke relocated to the Kelowna area where, in 1992, he opened a solo practice.

Dr. Belke began his practice with a passion and talent in the area of endodontics (root canals). His ongoing education and area of expertise has widened to include implant surgery and bite rehabilitation, while placing a priority on superior esthetics.

Over the last twenty years, dental implants and cosmetic gum surgery have proven to be both highly successful and beneficial, therefore, Dr. Belke is excited to promote these 21st Century procedures as a fundamental part of excellent dentistry in his practice. Dr. Belke offers a broad scope of dentistry to his patients and continues to be mentored by some of the most highly respected professionals in dental implant and bite rehabilitation techniques (Dr. Dwayne Karateew of Vancouver, B.C and Dr. Jim Beck of Pueblo, Colorado respectively).

In his leisure time, Dr. Belke enjoys fishing, sledding and inventing dental equipment. These inventions he currently uses in his own practice and has partnered with manufacturers with plans to bring them to market.

Bonded FillingsGone are the days when tooth trauma and cavities could only be treated with unsightly metal fillings. Today, modern, tooth-colored fillings made of durable resin can be bonded to your teeth for a stronger, more natural-looking effect. Composite fillings are virtually undetectable and require only a single appointment to apply.

Root Canal TherapyEach of our teeth contains a long, thin strand of dental pulp—which provides the tooth with nutrients and nerves—that extends down to the tooth’s root. If the pulp becomes infected or injured, the tooth’s nerves die and, often, without endodontic treatment, the tooth dies as well. Root canals are designed to save such damaged teeth.

Porcelain Inlays / OnlaysPorcelain inlays and onlays are a very aesthetic alternatives to composite fillings. They have a high degree of strength, and as such, are excellent for restoring weakened back teeth. Inlays and onlays protect and restore large portions of decayed, heavily restored tooth, or teeth under very heavy load (i.e. back teeth). Unlike crowns, they only cover a portion of the tooth, and are therefore more conservative on the amount of tooth preparation required.They are made with porcelain, customized to your natural tooth...

CrownsCrowns are a type of dental restoration which, when cemented into place, fully covers that portion of a tooth which lies at and above the gum line. In comparison, composite fillings/inlays/onlays are dental restorations that are used to fill in or cover over just a portion of a tooth. Since dental crowns encase the entire visible aspect of a tooth, a dental crown in effect becomes the tooth's new outer surface.Crowns are used to rebuild broken or decayed teeth, to strengthen teeth, and as a means by which to enhance the cosmetic...

ExtractionsIn only the most extreme and necessary cases—such as when its roots are damaged beyond repair—we may extract a tooth in preparation for a restorative dentistry procedure, such as dentures or implants.
