At Living Wellness Dental, we believe that dentistry should be about more than just treating teeth—it should be about supporting your overall health and well-being. This philosophy is what drew Dr. Gungji to the biological approach to dentistry, transforming his approach to patient care and ultimately leading him to Living Wellness Dental.
A Life-Changing Discovery
Dr. Gungji’s journey in dentistry began in Nigeria, where he practiced for six years. When he moved to Canada, he took a position as a dental assistant in a practice that embraced a biological approach to dentistry—something he had heard of but never witnessed firsthand. What he saw there changed his perspective completely.
“The impact that we were making in people’s lives was tremendous. I was like, ‘This is how I want to do dentistry if I ever was able to do it again.’”
Dr. Ogunji realized that true dental care goes beyond the mouth—it’s about understanding how oral health connects to the entire body. This experience ignited a passion in him, leading him to make a life-changing decision: if he was ever to practice dentistry again, it would be in this way.
A Commitment to Whole-Body Health
Determined to bring this approach to his own patients, Dr. Gungji went back to school and earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree. When he found Living Wellness Dental, he knew he had discovered his professional home—a place where patient care prioritizes not just oral health, but total body wellness.
At our practice, we consider the bigger picture. Every dental treatment and material choice is made with your overall health in mind. We focus on:
✔️ Minimally invasive techniques to preserve natural tooth structure
✔️ Empowered healthcare where patients are empowered with knowledge to make their own health decisions
✔️ Biocompatible materials that are gentle on the body
✔️ Safe mercury removal protocols to protect both patients and practitioners
✔️ A whole-body approach to dental care, recognizing how oral health impacts systemic health
Experience the Difference at Living Wellness Dental
Dr. Gungji’s journey is a testament to the power of the holistic/biological approach to dentistry and its impact on both practitioners and patients. If you’re looking for a dental practice that sees you as a whole person—not just a set of teeth—we invite you to experience the difference for yourself.
