The Dentist


Dr Elmar Jung has been an advocate for holistic integrative dentistry ever since leaving Dental school nearly 35 years ago.

Early on, Elmar realized that treating symptoms is the most common approach that dentists and doctors take to tackle illnesses. Convinced that there must be more, he embarked on a remarkable journey to explore complementary diagnostic and treatment methods which offer a whole person approach.

He is a qualified holistic Dentist with the German Association of Holistic Dentists, a Doctor of F.-X. Mayr Medicine, and a German Naturopath (Heilpraktiker).

Prior to moving to the UK to work with Dres Graeme & Lilian Munro-Hall, the UK’s pioneers in holistic dentistry, he ran two successful holistic practices in Germany and also worked at the prestigious Paracelsus-Clinic in Switzerland.

In 2012 he published his first book “Weapons of Plaque Destruction” together with Graeme Dinnen, on how to cure and prevent Gum Disease and Tooth Decay with an easy to learn blotting technique and a genius little toothbrush, the Blotting Brush.

Over the years, Dr Jung has witnessed first-hand, the damage that poor nutrition and toxic dentistry can do to a patient’s health and the transformational changes that happens once they get it right.

He supports his metal-free treatments with dental detoxification and supplementation protocols, and advises his clients on a healthy mindset.

Dr Jung is passionate about his patients taking full responsibility for their health and wellbeing.

In April 2019 he launched his Bestseller book “Shut Your Mouth and Open Wide” and in 2020 he started “Elmar’s Tooth Talk – The Missing Link To Total Health” his Podcast about Holistic Dentistry.

Elmar lives in the New Forest and still doesn’t fancy swimming with sharks.

He also lectures in the UK and internationally.

An OPG is a full mouth x-ray which shows your teeth, jawbone, sinuses, TMJ joints.

Dr Jung uses this to assess your teeth, jawbone, sinuses and TMJ joints.

This is necessary to assess the x-ray on screen and is mandatory for the CaviTAU scan.

An OPG gives Dr Jung a snapshot of the whole mouth from which to work, whilst the CBCT scan can be useful for a more detailed view of areas of concern that may show up on the OPG.

We don’t offer OPG x-rays in the clinic, so we recommend you look for a local dentist close to you who can offer digital OPG x-rays.

Simply obtain the email address of the Dentist you wish to use for the OPG x-ray and email us with their name and email address asking us to send a referral on your behalf.

If you haven’t already submitted your Registration form to us, then we will need your name, date of birth, address and contact telephone number and email so we can put this on the OPG referral.
