Dr. Gregory M. Jungman
Gregory M. Jungman was born in Waseca, Minnesota, on December 17, 1948. His mother, from a family of a physician and a teacher, and his father, the tenth of fifteen children in an Iowa farm family, shaped his early life. After his father served in the Korean War, his family moved to California in 1955, where Gregory was raised. He attended San Diego State University for undergraduate studies and completed dental school in Iowa from 1970 to 1974.
From 1974 to 1976, Gregory served in the U.S. Navy in San Diego, overseeing oral diagnosis, preventive dentistry, and operative dentistry. He moved to Colorado thereafter. He married Katie in 1972, and they raised three children—Chris, Michael (born in Kremmling), and Tim (born in Vail). After Katie’s passing in 2001, Gregory has shared his life with Marguerite Ritchey since 2012.
Professionally, Gregory founded the Dillon dental practice in 1976, acquired the Breckenridge practice in 1998, and started the Kremmling practice in 1999. His guiding principle has always been to provide gentle, affordable dental care, especially for patients who may have had difficult dental experiences.
Beyond dentistry, Gregory’s passions include his three sons, their families (with seven grandchildren), and outdoor sports. He dedicated 14 years as a Scoutmaster in Dillon/Silverthorne, 35 years teaching hunter education, and 34 years representing sportsmen on the Habitat Partnership State Council for Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Mentoring the next generation in outdoor pursuits remains his enduring passion.
