Holistic dentistry abroad at Asensio Advanced Dentistry in Valencia is led by Dr. Lucía Asensio Romero, specialist in biological and restorative dentistry.
At Asensio we use only biocompatible, metal-free materials — no amalgam, no metal alloys. Allergies and sensitivities to the mercury in amalgam fillings are increasingly common, and the long-term health implications of dental materials are taken seriously here. Every treatment plan is tailored to the individual patient’s health profile, sensitivities and preferences — not a standardised protocol.
The first consultation is completely free. Call us on 0800 048 8058 or email office@dentalasensio.co.uk to book.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between holistic and conventional dentistry?
Conventional dentistry focuses on treating individual teeth and oral conditions. Holistic dentistry considers the relationship between dental health and overall physical and emotional wellbeing — including the systemic effects of dental materials, the importance of minimal intervention and the patient’s individual health context.
Is holistic dentistry the same as biological dentistry?
The terms are used interchangeably. Both refer to a patient-centred, biocompatible approach that avoids toxic materials and considers the wider health implications of dental treatment.
Can I get dental implants with a holistic approach?
Dental implants abroad at Asensio use Nobel Biocare and Klockner titanium implants — biocompatible and free from toxic alloys. Zirconia ceramic crowns are available as the prosthetic component for patients who prefer a completely metal-free restoration.
