Stephen Bray Dentist

Dr. Stephen Bray's interest in Sleep Medicine began in the 1990s while practicing in Kelowna, British Columbia. At that time, there were no local educational opportunities in the field, prompting him to return to London, England, to pursue further training.
Recognizing the need for more advanced education, Dr. Bray subsequently studied for and achieved MFDS.RCS exams in London, before relocating to Boston to attended Tufts University in Boston, where he completed a Fellowship in Facial Pain and Sleep Disorders. Following this, he remained involved in teaching while continuing his education through Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Children's Hospital.
He later returned to the UK to complete a Postgraduate Diploma in Behavioural Sleep Medicine at the University of Glasgow. Before returning to Canada he also spent time at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London.
Returning to Kelowna, he worked with the Kelowna Sleep Clinic on predictive testing for Oral Appliance Therapy (OAT). He also provided professional education and patient care services through multiple dental practices throughout the region.
In 2020, he founded the Dental and Behavioural Sleep Medicine Society and the Kelowna Dental Study Club. These initiatives later evolved into The Sleep Society, an international multidisciplinary sleep organization established in 2025.
Today, Dr. Bray remains actively involved in The Sleep Society and its annual educational meetings for sleep professionals, as well as SleepSafeBC, the Society's public health and safety initiative. Through SleepSafeBC, annual provincial awareness and leadership initiatives are introduced to promote sleep health, public safety, education, and community engagement throughout British Columbia.
