Meet the Team

Dr Jag Soneji

Jag graduated with Honours from the Royal London Hospital in 1986. Since then, he has practiced dentistry in Maida Vale, Harrow, and Harley Street, before becoming the principal dentist of Ivory Dental Studio.

Jag has always worked as a general dentist, but over time became aware of the relationship between the health of the mouth and the rest of the body. Having embraced a more holistic approach to his personal well-being, Jag realised that his principles could be applied in the provision and care of his patients without compromising dental efficacy. He went on to study homeopathy at the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital and is a member of the Faculty of Homeopathy.

Since then, Jag has studied clinician nutrition and kinesiology and has attended conferences dedicated to holistic dental care. Having been a mercury-free dentist for many years, he has now also virtually eliminated the use of any metals as restorative materials.

Jag is a member of the BSSCMD (British Society for the Study of Cranio Mandibular Disorders), a group of the world’s top dental and medical practitioners who meet every 6-8 weeks to discuss and consider the views, rationale and treatments for TMJ disorders.

Jag is committed to providing the best service for all at Ivory Dental Studio. He encourages additional training and development, and follows strict protocols with regard to cross-infection and contamination for the safety and protection of both patients and staff.
