Dr. Terry McKay

I am honored to be in a position of trust with the public and feel it is my duty to always protect and nurture that relationship with my patients. My goal is to meet each person’s specific dental needs and exceed their expectations at every turn. Dentistry is a unique specialty within medicine that allows me to use my creativity to produce a beautiful product, while providing regular care for patients to promote overall health and well-being through dental healthcare.

I’ve been proud to practice general and cosmetic dentistry for over 35 years in Vancouver, West Vancouver, and Seattle, Washington. My long term dental practice in North Vancouver is located in the heart of Lonsdale and I also provide service for patients and families on the Sunshine Coast through Advantage Dental.

I am committed to growing and learning for life! It keeps me young, vital, and gives me a joy for life that I love to share with others. Following my formal dental education at the University of British Columbia, I joined numerous professional organizations to stay up-to-date on the most current dental technology. My patients can be confident in the care they receive because of my passion for continuing education. I use only the most proven dental techniques and materials available so I can do the very best for each patient, every time, and in every situation.

I place high importance on advancing my education in dentistry. I attend annual meetings and conventions around the country in oral surgery, endodontics, cosmetic dentistry, CEREC®, Invisalign®, and orthodontics, as well as subscribe to numerous professional publications focused on unbiased research. Additionally, as one of the original founding members of the Tucker Academy study club in Vancouver, I have been inspired by Dr. Tucker and his teaching methods and really enjoy inspiring my colleagues to strive for excellence in dentistry. I have encouraged those around me to continue their education since 1990. An operating study club is the most challenging type of continuing education because each dentist’s operation is critiqued by mentors and fellow peers. We discuss how they can improve their techniques and are accountable for their progress. I am also a part-time instructor and lecturer for the third and fourth year dental students at UBC.

LED Dental

LED Dental

Who We Are

LED Dental Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of LED Medical Diagnostics Inc. (“LED Medical”), a global leader in the development and commercialization of dermatologic detection technologies utilizing tissue fluorescence visualization.

LED Medical traces its roots back to the mid-1990s, when company founder Peter Whitehead began performing cancer research focused on cell death and cardiac rejection in collaboration with the British Columbia Cancer Agency (BCCA).

In 2000, Peter and a fellow BCCA researcher were awarded two patents: one for endoscopes and methods relating to direct viewing of target tissue, and another for fluorescence scope system for dermatologic diagnosis. Peter eventually formed a separate company and acquired both patents.

It quickly became apparent to both Peter and the BCCA that the technology represented by these patents had significant relevance for the detection of oral cancer as well as cervical cancer, which led to groundbreaking work by both Peter and BCCA researchers on a commercially viable technology platform. This also led Peter in 2003 to found LED Medical Diagnostics Inc. and LED Dental Inc. – an operating subsidiary focused solely on the technology’s use for the detection of oral tissue anomalies, including oral cancer and pre-cancer.

The VELscope VX® Enhanced Oral Assessment System

LED Medical and the BCCA ultimately co-developed the patented VELscope Vx® Enhanced Oral Assessment System, which received FDA and Health Canada approval for oral cancer screening in April and June, respectively, of 2006.

Core research on the tissue fluorescence visualization technology, on which the VELscope Vx® is based, was conducted by several universities and cancer research organizations with the support of over $50 million in funding provided in part by the National Institutes of Health.

Since 2006, there have been more than 12,000 VELscope Vx systems sold globally and they have been used to perform more than 25 million oral examinations. The technology has been recognized by The World Health Organization and has been named “Best of Class” three times (2011 – 2013/14) by the prestigious Pride Institute.

Mission

To provide dental and medical professionals with the highest quality products and service that improve patient care. Also representing an active voice in the battle against oral disease, including oral cancer and cancer of the mouth.

Who We Are

Optimal oral health is really a state of balance among our teeth, supportive gums and bone, muscles and jaw joints such that breakdown of any of these tissues is prevented. Regular examinations and preventive maintenance will be customized to your needs.

Although many mouths are similar, there are never two the same. When all the factors involved in diagnosis are combined with your objectives and circumstances to arrive at a treatment plan, it is unique to you. A treatment plan that was developed after diagnostic records and consultation with you is as important as a blueprint before building a house. A treatment plan designed with your clearly defined long-range objectives can eliminate unnecessary treatment and expense. It will also avoid providing you with dental work that does not fulfill your expectations.

Good communication between our patients and the dentists or staff members is essential before any procedures are done. We want you to understand what is being done, for what purpose and how it fits your treatment plan. You are encouraged to ask questions during your consultation or at any time so that you are comfortable and informed about materials and procedures and how they relate to your treatment plan.
