Dr. Mark Honce


DDS FICOI OKU

Dr. Mark Honce was born and raised in Kelowna, BC. Never imagining leaving such a beautiful hometown, Dr. Mark knew he’d eventually return to Kelowna after studying abroad.

At only 16 years of age, Dr. Mark left Kelowna to attend Walla Walla University in Washington State, where he received his BSc in Biology in just three years. He went on to pursue the field of Dentistry and became a graduate of the prestigious Loma Linda University School of Dentistry. He was also awarded Member of the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Honour Dental Society, Prosthetic Dentistry Excellence award from Southern California Dental Society, and Fellowship status in the International Congress of Oral Implantology
in 2004.

Dr. Mark was one of the very first dentists to bring Alloderm-based tissue grafting to the interior after receiving training by one of the top pioneering periodontists in the US, Dr. Pat Allan. He is Solea Laser certified and known for continuously innovating the field of dentistry. Dr. Mark has been practicing niche digital dentistry for over 20 years and will continue investing in advanced oral health solutions and patient-first care.

the practice and experience for its patients and staff alike.

and introduced digital radiography and laser dentistry to
his practice all the way back to the 90’s.

In the past four decades, Dr. Myles has warmly welcomed new patients to the practice and grown the local community. He was thrilled to create a legacy practice with his son, Dr. Mark, eventually selling it to him and seeing a new generation rise and evolve. Today, Dr. Myles continues to contribute his knowledge and expertise to the practice. He is Solea Laser certified and a leader in dental care. Dr. Myles is a true testament to the transformative power
of a dedicated and compassionate dental practitioner.


Innovative solutions 
to improve your 
dental experience.

The instruments and software we use give us access to details and fine structures that might not be otherwise seen. This enhances the quality of your examination and overall oral health, providing you with preventative care and some of the most advanced technology and treatments available in the Okanagan.

Digital Dentistry

Advancing technologies in a dental environment can improve precision and accuracy. As well, it increases efficiency and saves time, giving you more back in your day and less time in the dental office. Digital dentistry also improves your experience and eases discomfort, avoiding unnecessary reactions like gag reflex or extended periods of time in unnatural oral circumstances. The programs and software we use lets us communicate with you in a seamless and timely manner and reduces our environmental footprint, with less wasted physical materials or molds commonly created in dental clinics.

Laser Technology

Patient-first care is prioritized in our clinic, which means we always look for ways to reduce discomfort and improve your experience. Laser technology is an excellent solution for superficial dentistry. It can eliminate the need for freezing in some instances and can be hyper targeted, which lets our team focus on specific tissues without causing damage to surrounding areas. It is quieter, less invasive, and can contribute to faster healing and recovery.
