I Salute this Doctor! I believe teeth can heal. With proper oral hygiene. Every ‘cavity’ I have had was caused from a Dentist ‘cleaning’ my teeth. I have regrown a molar naturally after the dentist made mistake and broke it.
Currently I have a tooth that desperately needs to come out. My experience with dentists has been horrific for me and I am so afraid to open my mouth for another one. Lies and greed have caused me to not trust them. The injected numbing doesn't work anymore due to the abuse I have received. I need help.
Did you get the complete system? I can't get all the products here. I'm not in USA. I bought xylitol jus now but I can't get access to dr's product. If I get jus the toothpaste and mouth rinse will I heal. I have a lot of cavities and a huge hole. Root canal is unaffordable. I'm going to get the tooth paste and mouth rinse and xylitol. Cavities and nerve pain and drive me nut. I have been spending lots at dentist. I'm disabled too.
@@wasabi6507 Listerine is available and Crest. Just these 2 items made a world of difference! Keep in mind it's the way you brush your teeth and massage your gums while at it which is also key to gum health. Watch her vids on how to brush teeth properly. ACT Anticavity rinse is available too so I ordered it immediately when it was stocked online BUT before that pending availability I used a Flouride rinse from a different brand that my Kid uses in the proper formulation of .05% Sodium Flouride. This coupled with Xylitol mints or gum after meals have made a huge difference! Closys is the only thing I've difficulty getting but Amazon seems to have it on stock right now available for shipping to my area so I'll order soon, but in lieu of this I just did Oil pulling with Virgin Coconut Oil for 15-20 mins.
@@wasabi6507 Initially I had difficulty with Closys available for shipping to my Area but Amazon seems to have made it available recently so I'll order that soon. In short to answer your Question, YES the system works!!! Initially due to availability I started with just the Crest and Listerine and for my Flouride Rinse I started with a Brand that my Kid uses with the same .05% Sodium Flouride formulation as ACT. I've ordered ACT now since it's in stock online again.
@@wasabi6507 Keep in mind you have to brush properly plus massage the gums. Only floss to take stuck food out of gaps. Watch Dr. Ellie's vids on brushing properly. Closys by the way is what I haven't tried again due to availability in lieu of that I do coconut oil pulling.
I wish I knew you 27 years ago. Had you gave me that advice you would be my newly adopted family member. Anybody that is this honest to help others has my respect.
It's been years since I attended your boot camp.. I think it is you who said dentists play the role of bodyshop after you have wrecked your teeth. Just as a body shop doesn't teach prevention, neither do dentists. And obviously, their paycheck depends on them never advocating a system like yours even if they knew about it, which they don't😬 You really are saving lives 🤗
Doctor Ellie, I could not thank you enough. I joined your bootcamp you taught me so much. I started doing the program exactly the way you say 3 weeks later. My teeth and gums are feeling so much better.❤❤❤❤❤
I've been following Dr Ellie's instructions for a month or two now. After watching her hour-long video, I got all of the necessary items and began in earnest. I'm puzzled by the fact that the Closys website says, "Disrupts dental biofilm" because I'm positive she said that we want to keep that biofilm... I'm following the instructions anyway because she knows what she's talking about! I'm scheduled for my next dental cleaning on August 1st. I actually can't wait to see what my hygienist has to say!
Wish I discovered your channel earlier. I've done multiple painful fillings and some of them made my teeth sensitive which is very frustrating. I'm glad i found this, thank you!
Dr Ellie's system seems effective. Big improvement in my mouth after a few weeks. I'm accustomed to dentists who want to drill, fill, bill; extract, implant. She doesn't recommend cleanings! Wow.
I recommend you ask if you NEED a cleaning and work to the point where your oral health is so great - you have no need. That’s ultimate oral health! 💫🏆
You may be interested in my oral health video bootcamp at DrEllie.com. This is a collection of 14 videos that “tweak” my system to reach the ultimate level of oral health.
I’ve been using your system now for 4 months. My teeth feel and look great and my checkup last week was much quicker than normal because there was less scraping!
I have been following Dr. Ellie's Complete Mouth Care System for six weeks and my mouth feels clean, my teeth are smooth and my gums look GREAT. No mouth pain at all.
Its just 1. Chew xylitol gum or xylit8l mints (or if you're cheap like me, get a bag of xylitol and swish your own spit with 1/4 t. A few times a day for a few minutes) 1..pre-rinse before brushing(she uses closys. Even water works) 2.crest regular paste Toothpaste 3.listerine 4. ACT fluoride rinse
ACT is just a mouthwash with more sodium fluoride (concentration 0.05%) like toothpaste has (most toothpastes have sodium fluoride concentration 0.24%), so its about giv8ng sodium fluoride time on your teeth. If I didn't have ACT, I'd just brush with alot of toothpaste (one inch strip at least) and let the brushing foam mix with my spit and swish it around in my mouth for a few minutes. Then spit it out and not rinse my mouth for 20 min, to give the fluoride spit mixture time to soak into my teeth
I have been experimenting with using pure xylitol crystals - it is amazing. I dont know that it can ever replace the mints but phwoar, xylitol is utterly amazing for mouthfeel
Dr. Ellie is my answered prayer, I could see a big improvement in my smile, I wished I knew about her 10 years ago, I had four implants 5 years ago and it cost a lot of money. Thank you and I pray that you change dental medicine in the near future. For the better 😊
I’m 55. I am excited about dental care these days. My gums and teeth look so good. I have taken pretty moderate care of my teeth for my adult life, most of my problems started when I was a kid, my mom didn’t teach me to take care of my teeth and when I went to the dentist all they did was drill n fill, I feel like the dental field is generally a rip off and all about fixing teeth not preventing or educating like you do. My daughter has had one cavity and she’s an adult now. I have told my family and friends about your system, it’s very affordable and accessible for nearly everyone. I can get just about everything I need in a few trips around town or online. Bless you, Dr. Ellie ❤🦷❤️
I came across this channel just this past week. Feeling guilty of doing a self-inflicted filling in teeth#13 just 3 weeks ago. My Story: I’m 37 and was never been to a dentist until 34 when it was suggested by my doctor during annual check up. My visit to dentist revealed a cavity in #13. I got mouth debriment and root planning at the time but refused the filling even though the dental office called several times during the next year to remind me of filling. I eat clean and was hoping the cavity won’t progress. Next year I switched job and a got new dentist for routine cleanings. They said I have periodontal pockets and should be getting more frequent cleanings and a filling in #13. I had to leave that dentist due to unnecessary works they were sugge to do. This year, I got a swollen gum around #13 just 6 weeks ago even though I had been using string floss and toothpaste based on my dentist recommendations. I believe that flossing caused the injury and teeth #13 started to become more sensitive. I quickly signed up for a new dentist and the exam and x-rays revealed the cavity is of slightly bigger size and approaching nerve gradually. They suggested to get a filling or I will lose my teeth. I panicked and during my due diligence, both the internet searches, and in-person folks I talked to suggested to get one and forget about it for next several years. I was skeptical until the last minute but since they numbed my gums for recent deep cleaning, I said go ahead to a big composite filling. My post filling sensitivity issues in #13 led me to Dr. Ellie’s protocol and I’m so mad on my decision. I postponed this filling for 3 years, hoping it will heal/remineralize on its own with my disciplined diet and routine brushing and flossing. Now I got the filling with similar sensitivity issues and no chance of natural healing. I just wrote this comment upon trying oral care routine the very first time. My mouth feels so good and clean. I feel so bad for my tooth and this self inflicted wound. Remaining optimistic, I hope this filling could withstand a decade while on this oral care routine and won’t create problems in future. Though the dentist said that since it was big its life could be 3-5 or max 7 years. If anyone with composite filling could comment on fillings lifespan on Dr Ellie’s oral care routine. I promised to my 31 pristine teeth that I won’t be doing harm to them.
Is there a dentist or doctor in the land who is not motivated by money and not patient need or doing least harm? It's like the electrian who comes over to fix a socket and then tells you the whole house could use rewiring.
I had a huge hole and it healed, and the molar rebuilt itself, and this was 10 years ago, never got a cavity there again. I was studying weston price at the time. I used oregano oil as well directly on the tooth. So yes even severe cavities can heal, but i didn't ate sugar anymore.
Dr. Ellie, I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel! I've had 'bad' teeth since I was a little and have had tons of fillings. I'm 38 and have always done a pretty good job at taking care of my teeth, however here I am still struggling with bad discolored teeth. My kids just went in for a cleaning and a couple of them have several cavities. it's time to do something different.
I hear you, dear one! I am close to twice your age and have lost most of my teeth. But, thankful for running into Dr. Ellie‘s channel. I’m getting the information for my children and grandchildren! As they say, I’m gladly planting the tree, even though I will not be around to see it produce fruit. Smile.
Dentists just do fillings even on small kids - you have to tell them no and that the cavity in milk teeth will not affect the next set of teeth coming in.. they keep you in fear and destroy your teeth
You are amazing! I am so glad I found you but regret that it took this long! My mouth has gone through a lot but I'm happy to be on your plan now. I feel relief already. Oh and your teeth are amazing, the perfect spokesperson for doing what you do. You are gorgeous!
Great information! One thing I'd like to know is how to know when it is too risky to remineralize and instead should do a filling. @10:19 you mentioned if you feel pain that your nerve is at risk but then @10:37 you said that it is already affected so pain doesn't seem to be a good gauge to prevent a root canal.
In my office, unless someone had serious toothache that lasted over 2 minutes each time they ate something - even if we knew the tooth would eventually need a filling - the tooth will be easier to fill, and the new filling will have a far better chance of success, if you have a healthy mouth at the time the filling is done. I usually allowed my patients about 3 months before we ever did ANY non-emergency treatment.
I started her program a few months ago. I haven't been in for a checkup but I can usually feel buildup on the inside of my front teeth after a few months but I don't feel it now.
I think I had numerous fillings where there were just demineralized spots.Now many years later, I get the fillings replaced. It's a vicious cycle. I wish I knew about this 30 years ago.
Exactly and thanks for sharing your experience. I am sorry about this - but people need to know that a "filling' is just the beginning of problems that never stop. Avoiding small fillings is so easy it should be a crime to fill them. Thanks again for sharing - Oh...and it's never too late to start using my system! DrEllie.com
We have been taught to brush our teeth twice a day and go for dental checkup every 6 months or so. During those visits, when I'm on the dentist chair and the doctor says I have a few fillings to do. I would usually comply because they are the professionals. But then deep in my thoughts, wouldn't it make a deeper hole as you drill. How long will the filling last? Do they need to drill and fill in again? I'm afraid my tooth may even wear out faster! Thank you, doctor. Today I learned demineralisation and remineralisation. As they say, 'Prevention is better than cure' I would rather observe a complete system of mouthcare than to have, sometimes, unnecessary treatment.
The NHS here in the UK knowing I was medically allergic to nickle iron silver etc ignored my medical records giving me metal fillings which led to 15 years of utter agony eventually I lost every tooth , in my Early 40s aswell they still haven't fixed what they caused .. devastating doesn't even begin to describe what I felt . As a woman my life was n is over 😭😪
@@mariecarton8611 thank you for saying this , I don't speak to anyone these last few years it's so depressing, I am now looking for legal help because I'm too young & far to intelligent to be put on a shelf 🩷 thank you from Amanda in Blackpool England UK 💎
My wife (75) and I (83) are giving parts of your system a try. At my wife's annual cleaning, her dental hygienist remarked that her teeth were noticeably cleaner after just a week on Xylitol and Crest. I have severely receding gums and have been following part of the system for about a month now (Xylitol, Crest, Cool Mint and Act, stopped flossing, twice-daily brushing including massage of the gums using Oral-B electric w/Floss Action head). My teeth look and feel cleaner and the gums seem to be responding a little to the massaging, but I recently noticed progression of recession on numerous teeth that I never noticed before. I am also concerned that the gums do not appear to be bonding well to the teeth but am resisting the urge to floss. We are giving the system three months before deciding whether to continue or not, and sure hope we don’t regret it. My questions I have are: 1) what part of the system promotes redevelopment of the bond between the gums and the teeth, and how can I assess progress there; and 2) is any of this system bad for my high blood pressure?
don't use electric toothbrush that can cause recession. Dr. Ellie says to use a basic manual toothbrush. I switch from an electric to a manual using her system and my teeth feel just as clean if not better than when using the electric.
I am 70 and i was talked into this filling buisness 30 yrs ago and now i have lost most of my teeth to root canal or have completely lost them unable to chew and now they are advising for implants which is next to impossible
I am so sorry - but thank you for sharing your story. You are the “reason” I am here trying to explain that fillings don’t solve dental disease. I appreciate you taking time to comment. Thanks again.
Ellie, I need to be empowered. Just before I found you I went to a specialist. I had infection, receding gums, and bone loss. I had several teeth pulled, as well deep cleaning under the gums. After my gums and pulled teeth were healed I went back for a check up. I was told I still had problems under the gums and would need to be cut open to remove the infection and that they won't make a temporary/permanent for me until after the surgery was completed . It was after that that I found you. I purchased all of the products you recommended and began using it faithfully. I feel great improvement if not almost 100 % since. My teeth have tightened up, are cleaner and have become stronger. I really do believe my gums are coming back too. With all that said I still need to go back for my temporary/permanent. I wouldn't go back to them at all because the temporary fits very well but the temporary is short two teeth necessary for connecting with two bottom teeth for chewing. At the time when I realized this I didn't think it was a problem since I would soon be getting my temporary/permanent teeth but as I said they won't make them until after I have the surgery. My teeth have improved so much that I don't think I need the surgery on my gums. I am going to call them requesting another check up but feel I need more information and empowerment to back me up. Being professionals I fear they won't listen to me. Where can I get proof and empowerment to fight the fight I may have ahead of me. People have commented that you are only out to make money. I think you really want to help us have better hygiene, teeth and gums so I hope you will give me some good advise to approach the professionals in this matter.
@@nikkifrye7599 I believe all you need is an honest and experienced dentist. But if you use my strategies for a few weeks preceding an appointment - it will be easier for any DDS to help you. I don’t believe holistic DDS are better evaluators than honest general dentists.
Dear Dr Ellie if I can save money from root canal or even crown though my broken decayed tooth wilp nvr grow back. I'm grateful to u! I'm disabled and don't get a penny from government. I m rescuing cats too. The money will help me rescue more cats. Thank u so much for ur videos !
I have a cavity in my molars since 10 yrs and Inhavent done a thing to it. It used to hurt a bit for a.few months but I bore it and thenafter Its still there but no pain nothing..I refuse to have drugs pumped in my body
My fillings fall out most of the time no matter how many dentist I have changed. I have stopped to go to dentist for more than 10 years and my teeth are fine without fillings.
@@LoyolaMan really not BS. Of course eating regular western diet is not gonna improve the cavities. My friend’s fillings fell out when he took zeolite. I’m bothering to respond to your “BS” because I actually care. Have a nice day:)
@@eurekax7384do teeth remineralize after polishing I have recently done polishing and very very few enamel I think worn so is it possible to repair by own 😢😢😢
A Speci Request Ma'am. 🙏 May you please make video explaining how to take perfect care of teeth after RCT and Crowning to make sure our tooth stays healthy and strong for lifetime. This in regards with patients who got theri RCTs in teenage and arw now strong-willed to take proper care of oral health . Cheers 😊 ! Respect and Gratitude 🎉
The suggestions are the same for all because my system of care addresses the underlying mouth biochemistry. I'd say try the system I recommend and see how your mouth FEELS....drEllie.com If you want to learn more about oral health - I have an oral health video bootcamp on this website drEllie.com that you may find useful and I hope interesting...... Thanks for your comment. Ellie
Thank you Dr Ellie for sharing your valuable knowledge. I just ordered your complete mouth care system on your Amazon page to support the work you do. You are an amazing dentist.
I had a tooth which had a bluish tint and I found the tint accidently as it was covered by my cheek. The dentist told me it did look like a decay, even though I take super good care of my oral hygiene. He had it grind and discovered that it was like the leftover of mercury filling replaced with white filling?? No idea but it was NOT a decay! Because of that, I had so much of the tooth removed and replaced with new white filling and caused sensitivity for a while. Thankfully it went away and now I am ok. BUT he should have done X-ray first!!! Unnecessary cost for me too!
I have started the routine and it has helped tremendously. My main concern is using chloride and fluoride while having Hashimoto. Aren’t these endocrine blockers that will prevent iodine from entering the thyroid? I am ready to change products. Plus all the coloring and chemicals throw me off too. I’ve been trying to avoid all that for years.
Hi Dr Ellie, I used to eat amla( Indian gooseberry which is highly acidic) mixed with honey for my hairs but tomorrow I didn't swished my mouth which was totally dumb and it sat on my tooth for 8-9hours now some part of one of my front tooth has thin enamel than the rest.....Can it be remineralized?
That’s crazy I was just thinking about that Kodak device the other day! I think it was called Caries ID ? 🤷♀️ The rep brought in for me to demo. It was supposed to light up and beep when there was decay. It beeped in every tooth!!! 🤣 Btw, I just got your complete system. 😊
Thank you Ellie ❤ Would you be able to talk about perimplantitis? I had 4 implants 18 years ago. I have lost one already. Another one is in danger to fall out for there is bad bacteria around the screws and the jaw bone has been receeding because 2 teeth are now missing in the back. I wonder what to do. I am almost sugar free, even fruits are dessert for me. I have started with a mouth wash with xylitol and fluorid for a month now. After your fantastic recomendations. I am fully in with your strategies!
You are welcome- she has the info in her blogs and some videos. If you can't get crest anti cavity toothpaste she recommends oral b 123 freshmint. I actually prefer fluorigard(colgate) to the ACT
Dr. Ellie, I wish I found you earlier. I had a 10mm pocket and bone loss. I had bone graft surgery last year but now my periodontist wants to pull out 2 molars due to failed bone graft. I have started your system for a month now. I wonder if there is still hope to safe those two molars after a failed bone graft.
Possibly - be sure you are doing the gum massage - using xylitol at the end of meals and allowing time for your own saliva to heal these gums after meals - which means no sipping or snacking between meals. You may like my oral health video bootcamp to help you with the small changes that can make a big difference. Good toothbrushes are vital and most people are using brushes that are too soft.
I’m 29 almost 30 never had any oral issues until last visit doc recommended a small filling using the scanner tool. Told them to hold off for 6 months will try this system and check again and see if it goes away
Dental work is so expensive even with insurance. My highly educated dentist pushes cosmetic work a lot when in my mind it is not needed. The older dentists were not into that as much.
can you reverse enamel-level cavities that had formed around old (white) fillings by using your system? can the presence of the filling compromise the healing process in any way?
I cannot answer that - it all depends on how they drilled and filled the tooth. i'd say it is always worth 6-9 months trying my system and see what happens. Be sure to use the toothbrushes that I recommend and brush these areas well - as they are often plaque traps that can stain easily. Staining would be the most likely problem - but either you or a dental cleaning would clean this off ....so yes, I'd recommend giving this a try.
Thank you for your reply, Dr Ellie! I don’t understand what you mean by staining is the most likely problem. I’ve been using your system for a week now and noticed that my white fillings that I only had installed a few months ago are noticeably brown and there is also some brown staining on my other teeth. Are the rinses staining my teeth?!
@@is9893 No, it is not likely that the rinses are staining your teeth. Dr. Ellie meant that those areas of the old white fillings are plaque traps because white composite filling material attracts the growth of plaque. Then, they can stain easily because the staining is normally old dead plaque bacteria that has died off quickly and in a large amount due to your mouth conditions suddenly improving. That die-off leaves staining, which she said can be removed by either you (brushing those teeth harder with one of the approved medium-firmness toothbrushes), or else cleaned off by a hygienist at a dental cleaning.
I went to the dentist regularly and now as an adult my teeth need tons of work 🤦♀️ My siblings barely went and all still have their teeth. Mine are horrible. They looked great until I started letting dentists work on them.
Why do these TH-cams always end up as dentist bashing sites?This dentist lady is trying to help people with her advice, yes, like every profession there’s good and bad but don’t blame everyone else for your neglect.
Any thoughts on radiation exposure from dental X-rays? My dentist wants to do X-rays every 6 months. That’s why I avoid the dentist. Not to mention the cleanings are creating more tooth and gum sensitivity for me.
Here is some info on X-rays that I wrote down years ago: 1) Always have the hygienist use the thyroid cover over your throat area in addition to the lead apron whenever they take X-rays. 2) To reduce your exposure to radiation, refuse panoramic X-rays unless there is a true actual need for one (many dentists do them just because insurance companies will now cover them). 3) Ask the technician to take only 2 bitewings of your mouth instead of 4 if you are not at a big risk. Oftentimes, 4 bitewings is completely unnecessary, and particularly if you have a smaller mouth. 4) Take Vitamin C right before your appointment. 5) I don't know if this has changed by now or not, but at the time I wrote this down, the then-current FDA guidelines for adult dental X-rays recommended bitewings every 2-3 years (instead of yearly or, heaven forbid, every 6 months), if you have no tooth decay and are not at high risk for cavities. 6) It does not matter if your dentist wants you to do really frequent X-rays; you are under no compulsion to have to do anything that the dentist suggests if you don't want to. You cannot afford to be passive when it comes to issues vital to health and quality of life. It is your own health, not your dentist's own health, that he is affecting or putting at risk, so you should take control of your own health and not risk just putting yourself in the hands of others or accepting whatever is standard practice. Your doctor should work with you, but you should be in charge of your own health and stand your ground. Don't be afraid to explain how you feel and assert your own wishes, even if it makes for an uncomfortable situation.
I had a child age 42yrs. I'm now 52yrs old. My molars are cracked/ broken, since the pregnancy. Its so difficult in the UK to get an appointment with a registered dentist. However, they're focused on money. Can you help me please?
Dr. Ellie's first recommendation for you would be to immediately start on her full program and that you may see huge improvements in your oral health within 3-6 months if you do everything correctly and thoroughly.
Help me. I’ve already lost three teeth. All had fillings. Two of them cracked. One cracked from Food and another cracked open by itself. At this point I’m going to lose all my teeth. It doesn’t matter that I’m trying my best despite the fact that I have to take inhalers and my teeth are yellow. I still get told it’s my fault, but even teeth that I’ve had filled are hurting. What do I do? No one seems to be able to help me in anyway. I’m only 37 and I think I’m going to have dentures by my 40s.
Dr. Ellie, I love your channel. I suffer from periodontitis and oral lichen planus. Can you recommend a good mouthwash to use in conjunction with CloSys? Can you do a video that focuses on periodontitis and oral lichen planus? Thank you!
This is info i am looking for. Just have a failed root canal talking about extraction and implant. I have spent many thousands. The mote they drill the more your teeth will need more work. Its a racket. I dont want to die of infection or lose all my teeth. Losing teeth leads to bone loss. I am willing to try her system.
Dr Ellie.. Your xylitol sugar works.. My excruciating nerve pain subsided after sucking lots of xylitol. I took pain killers prior but two days I need not take painkillers s.. I going to my dentist later. They want to do a root canal.. Half my teeth is gone .maybe I will discuss if a root canal is necessary.. Or just a crown.. Ur xylitol eases my dying nerve pain so much.! Prior to that I had painkillers and tcm but with added xylitol.. The pain improved tremendously!., but half my teeth is gone. Will update more.. I bought the toothpaste and mouthwash listerine.. I still can't find the closys rinse.. Will try and buy the act rinse.. Amazing
Please don't use the Listerine alone without following it up with the ACT fluoride rinse! She advises to never end the procedure with Listerine as it will leave your mouth too acidic and that would be harmful.
Xylitol and my Complete Mouth Care System will eliminate plaque formation in about 6 months and the mouth care routines will dissolve any tartar away. DrEllie.com for the details and more information.
Have you got enough time if you have a cavity grade 3-4? Can I reverse that with xylitol, the mounthwash and toothpaste you suggest, let's say try it for some weeks, months? I am waiting for my xylitol, it will hopefully arrive within the next 2 weeks. Did you mean that an x ray can show a dark shadow, but it does not neccesary have to be a cavity? They never know before they open up?
$393 for 1 filling in Nova Scotia . They took the old filling out and put other stuff in and it took about 20 minutes. Now it still hurts. Wish now I had it removed!!
Thank you so much for this information I so appreciate it thank you, 51 yers old and I have a mouth full of fillings sad but true PS started your system a week ago 👍
That’s great. There’s lots of help and info on my website at DrEllie.com. You may like to learn from the oral health video bootcamp once you get started.
i was in the dental office with my long time dentist (15 years) and SCREAMED at him for never suggesting i use xylatol. I was LIVID! this was after him telling me i needed 6 fillings. I now use your system of care exclusively
FYI, after a regular brushing, eliminating the glycerine residue with a brushing of Ivory soap (no taste,) I've had over 2 decades of zero cavities. And one cavity not yet filled when I started, filled itself in. Source: Chemist on the radio (The Power Hour, Joyce Riley) who solved his cavity problem that way. He also reported cavities healing from this treatment.
What do you think of hydroxyapatite. I was using Rx fluoride toothpaste and switched to hydroxyapatite because I didn’t like the negative side effects of fluoride. Since switching my teeth have been a lot less sensitive.
It’s a bandaid on the problem. I don’t recommend. The minerals in your saliva work best - give them time to heal your teeth. DrEllie.com for more info.
I don't know what you mean about your gums being black, but in general Dr. Ellie does not recommend having old silver fillings removed if they are not causing you any trouble. She says the white fillings are no better, from a different aspect.
Dr. please which one if the systems will be good for my teen boy and 10 and a nine year old. The dentist says they have cavities anytime we go there. Please help. Thank you
Would this regimen help with a tooth that has a tiny crack? It’s a tooth with an old filling but I’m being told I should get a crown. No sensitivity whatsoever. Thank you!
If I were in your shoes I’d give my strategies at least a 3-6 month experiment and you may be surprised at the result. DrEllie.com for a free booklet. Ensure you stop sipping or snacking between meals - even water. The key is to let your enamel be healed by your own saliva.
My partner's dentist told her that she had a cracked tooth that would need a crown. I suggested to my partner that she try Dr. Phillips' system for awhile first. She didn't make an appointment for the crown and instead went full-on into the mouth care system. At her next cleaning (in six months), the crack was gone!
Wats yr take on root canals done n later problems with it? Also they say it is better to remove it instead. If so r implants good or even necessary?? 10 yrs sgo i got one done (dentist said it was necessary!) That time i wasn't aware but now i believe our bodies are able to heal n hence hope it works for teeth too. Few days back a part of some filling of d tooth next to d RC molar broke off n now another dentist suggests same RC for this tooth n i don't want to. Am gonna try yr routine 💚🙏
Hi! I broke my tooth. I think it had been reconstructed already and thats what broke out. It's a big chunk of tooth, no pain though. Just rough in the tongue. What would you recommend? Allow reconstruction? Thank you
Hello doctor Phillips, I have a tooth on my upper right side where my palate Is, It Is uncovered by my palate AND It hurts me when I drink hot beberages. What can I do? I have buying the things of your programa. I live un México and I can not buy them here do I así dome friends to get them for me from the States I apareciste your teaching lot. Thank you Veri mucho. Good bless you!
It would be best if you can obtain all of the products Dr. Ellie recommends so you can use her complete system. If you have friends who can get those products for you, ask them to do so.
Dentist has done filling with miracle mix material. In this case, can I do oil pulling to reverse the tooth decay? Does this any harm to filling material.
I’ve been using this system for just over three months and my mouth is now a mess! I don’t understand. I have checked several times that I am using the right products, and I stopped flossing as she recommends. I now get gum sores that come and go. My front teeth are getting stains (from tea) like never before. And I now have at least 2 teeth that are sensitive to temperature (more hot than cold). Prior to using the system, I had used natural products for at least 20 years. I even went 8 years at one point without a dental visit and they were shocked because I had no plaque build up nor any cavities. I changed to this system after watching many Dr Ellie videos and wanting to ensure that I have strong, healthy teeth well into my senior years. Now I’m wondering if I made a mistake?!? Again, I follow the system exactly. Using the right products and even time myself using a stopwatch, for rinsing and brushing. Nothing about my diet has changed. I eat little to no added sugars, lower carb, and plenty of fresh, organic foods with plenty of fiber. What could be going wrong? Should I stop using this system? Edited to include: I am also consuming 2-5g of xylitol mints per day
Are you drying your toothbrush between uses? The staining was normal for me but had it cleaned off by my dentist and it didn’t happen again, might just be the dead plaque taking on the stain.
@@jpnovak923 Yes. I use the two toothbrushes as recommended. Also, I started this protocol within a week of my last dental cleaning. So there shouldn’t have been much plaque on my teeth when I started.
But what about the increase in gum sores, and the increased temperature sensitivity? I thought the protocol was supposed to help with these issues - not create them?
Dr Ellie, how about if we eat granulated xylitol directly, like 1/4 of a tea spoon, instead of a mint? Would that be ok too? Thanks for all the useful info you provide!!
Dr Ellie I really love you idea but I'm from India and I can't get any of the product that you suggest or from your mouthcare system except xylitol. Please reply doctor you never reply please suggest some alternative products I have cavities on my 4 molor teeths and I can see they can be remineralized but I really need your suggestion on this, please help doctor.
Should I still be using Cool Mint after brushing my teeth if I don’t have the other products you recommend.?, I’m using Xylitol after every meal, but don’t have access to the other items.
What about White spots? Is there a way to get rid of those? I had braces and have these white spots. I tried to get icon but they said I’m not a candidate. What can I do?
I’d suggest my strategies that strengthen enamel. The stronger your surrounding enamel the less you will notice these white spots, and in some cases they may get better and possibly disappear. The time for this is between 3-6 months - so it’s certainly worth a try before thinking about veneers or cosmetic options. DrEllie.con for a free downloadable booklet about my Complete Mouth Care System.
I hv been watching over n over again but some of the products I can't find here. Will my cavities heal? I'm disabled. I can't afford to keep going dentist. My dental pain is so bad that I can't get out of bed. Took ponstan and rinse with salt Himalayan. Rest. Took echinacea.. I feel like dying
Can you at least get plain xylitol granules or crystals that come loose in a 1-pound bag? It is very reasonably priced that way, and if you could at least start using xylitol, and take at least 6 to 7 doses every day (1 gram or about 1/4 teaspoon for each dose, put into your mouth and swish around for 2 to 5 minutes before you swallow it), you would actually get a lot of benefit just from doing that. Someone else here on this page in the comments said that he had painful tooth decay and that when he started using xylitol, it immensely reduced his pain. If you can't do anything else in Dr. Ellie's program besides the xylitol, then rinsing with salt water is actually a very good thing to do. I will pray for you also.
Hi Dr. Ellie Phillips, I damaged the enamel on my two front lower teeth many years ago and that seems to be the only place where I have plaque build up now. From what I've researched there is no hope of repairing the enamel. Based on your knowledge do you know if this is true or is there a way to repair enamel?
@@canadianmom cool mint comes in alcohol free as well, that’s my questions, does it matter? I know she says no alcohol in the ACT but can’t find where she specifies in the listerine 😏🤔🙃
My theory is to make my mouth alkaline after every meal and snack. I chose the method of eating celery after every meal and snack., Then after the celery I use Xylitol to produce the saliva for remineralization. I'm hoping this strategy will reverse two small cavities. I like your Xylitol products because you don't put glycerine in them..
what should i do if there is no smiliar product with stabilised chlorine dioxide as a first step of mouthcare? i did the research and found substitutes for everything except for that
I used this system for a short time, and then noticed that my teeth were becoming sensitive. There's a technique used by dentist where a compound (I have no idea what it is) on a Q-tip is pressed onto the tooth, to see if a nerve is alive. My teeth felt like that - sensitive roots while swooshing. Also, my bottom teeth are becoming discolored and are no longer smooth. I'm not sure which of the 3 treatments are causing this, but I would appreciate if I could get some advice. Thanks!!
You may want to ensure that you have the EXACT formulations of every product - and are using them in the exact method. DrEllie.com for more information and help.
@@dr.elliephillips I am definitely using the exact formulas that are listed in your program. The ACT rinse does say 1Xdaily, and I'm doing everything twice a day. Could that be the problem? There's a prescription rinse that's used for a day or two before dental surgery that has a disclaimer that it can cause discoloration, so that brought me here to ask. Thank you for your reply!
Does your program work for sevee tooth decay that gives me excruciating dental pain. I'm hesitating to go extraction. Please answer me. I'm so depressed and suicidal. My brain injury causing me vomit a lot and I have dental decay. I have bought many toothpaste and eat a lot of butter and my decay still didn't heal. 😭
Doctor Ellie, i got dark stain between all teeth 2-3 weeks after dental cleaning and 2 months on your system. I do floss some places were food stucks and front lower teeth where i have orrhodontic wire to retain their allignment. I saw the dentist to clean plaque around wire and some stain. No new plaque since, but the stain is now the worst i ever had. I only eat 2-3 times a day, no snacks. Should i double zellies? Or clean again and then double?
I’d recommend checking your toothbrushes - that you are using the resilient ones I recommend & have enough to let them dry for 24 hours between uses. Don’t soak your brush in anything - allow them to air dry. Otherwise they get too soft. I think you just need to brush these areas of staining a bit more vigorously.
I have gum disease 50% top 70% bottoms. Im 62 and known for my big smile the periodontist said he wants to do scaling and root planting does this help? He also told me hes not able to build up the bone around my teeth but will do the deep cleanings. Is this my only hope. He did say I had no cavities except two very tiny cavities he wants to fill. He wants to remove a very healthy molar because its in the way of cleaning my gums around it. Does this sound right?
I'm 64 and had scaling and root planing. It didn't really help to be honest. Every subsequent appointment, I still had deep pockets, cavities, etc-- even though I was flossing and using a water pik. After losing yet another molar (which had previously been filled and crowned), I started this system. My gums have grown back like the dentist said they never would, and my teeth feel great. I wish I had known about this long ago. I've learned to despise most dentists. Their "work" has caused me much suffering.
I am wondering if it would be possible to use other brands/flavors of mouthwash as long as they have the same ingredients? For example, the green FreshBurst Listerine has the same ingredients as the Cool Mint. Additionally, Rexall has a dye-free antiseptic mouthwash that has identical ingredients to the Cool Mint Listerine, minus the dye! Is there any reason not to use these other mouthwashes if the ingredients are identical? Please advise. Here is the list of ingredients from the Rexall dye-free mouthwash: Eucalyptol 0.092%, Menthol 0.042% Methyl salicylate 0.060%, Thymol 0.064% water, alcohol (21.6% v/v), sorbitol, poloxamer 407, benzoic acid, sodium saccharin, sodium benzoate, flavor.
I can only advise you use the products I know work and we have used for over 45++ years. If you decide to mix these around - you may get different results - I just can't know. I know what I know and I trust this system. Why not use the strategies I recommend and get your mouth in ultimate oral health status - and then you could experiment and see what else works. This would be especially good advice if you currently have any dental concerns you want to fix. drEllie.com
I was reading the ingredients on the cool, mint Listerine, the 1 L size I hope that’s the right one and one of the greetings is sucralose so I don’t know what to do about this. Should I continue with the mouthwash? Why is there sugar in there?

Do mouthwashes discolor teeth? As I did read chlorhexidine do...how about others? And how does that affect parts of teeth that have artificial emanel?
Can you talk about DMSO for toothaches?❤
I Salute this Doctor!
I believe teeth can heal. With proper oral hygiene. Every ‘cavity’ I have had was caused from a Dentist ‘cleaning’ my teeth. I have regrown a molar naturally after the dentist made mistake and broke it.
Currently I have a tooth that desperately needs to come out. My experience with dentists has been horrific for me and I am so afraid to open my mouth for another one. Lies and greed have caused me to not trust them. The injected numbing doesn't work anymore due to the abuse I have received. I need help.
started this 2 weeks ago and all my mouth pain and gum swellling is gone...... this woman is legit!!!
Along with the sensitivity..
Did you get the complete system? I can't get all the products here. I'm not in USA. I bought xylitol jus now but I can't get access to dr's product. If I get jus the toothpaste and mouth rinse will I heal. I have a lot of cavities and a huge hole. Root canal is unaffordable. I'm going to get the tooth paste and mouth rinse and xylitol. Cavities and nerve pain and drive me nut. I have been spending lots at dentist. I'm disabled too.
@@wasabi6507 Listerine is available and Crest. Just these 2 items made a world of difference! Keep in mind it's the way you brush your teeth and massage your gums while at it which is also key to gum health. Watch her vids on how to brush teeth properly. ACT Anticavity rinse is available too so I ordered it immediately when it was stocked online BUT before that pending availability I used a Flouride rinse from a different brand that my Kid uses in the proper formulation of .05% Sodium Flouride. This coupled with Xylitol mints or gum after meals have made a huge difference! Closys is the only thing I've difficulty getting but Amazon seems to have it on stock right now available for shipping to my area so I'll order soon, but in lieu of this I just did Oil pulling with Virgin Coconut Oil for 15-20 mins.
@@wasabi6507 Initially I had difficulty with Closys available for shipping to my Area but Amazon seems to have made it available recently so I'll order that soon.
In short to answer your Question, YES the system works!!! Initially due to availability I started with just the Crest and Listerine and for my Flouride Rinse I started with a Brand that my Kid uses with the same .05% Sodium Flouride formulation as ACT. I've ordered ACT now since it's in stock online again.
@@wasabi6507 Keep in mind you have to brush properly plus massage the gums. Only floss to take stuck food out of gaps. Watch Dr. Ellie's vids on brushing properly. Closys by the way is what I haven't tried again due to availability in lieu of that I do coconut oil pulling.
I wish I knew you 27 years ago. Had you gave me that advice you would be my newly adopted family member. Anybody that is this honest to help others has my respect.
It's been years since I attended your boot camp.. I think it is you who said dentists play the role of bodyshop after you have wrecked your teeth. Just as a body shop doesn't teach prevention, neither do dentists. And obviously, their paycheck depends on them never advocating a system like yours even if they knew about it, which they don't😬 You really are saving lives 🤗
Doctor Ellie, I could not thank you enough. I joined your bootcamp you taught me so much. I started doing the program exactly the way you say 3 weeks later. My teeth and gums are feeling so much better.❤❤❤❤❤
I would love it if you actually showed a pic of how bad a cavity can be before it needs a filling.
Dr.Ellie. Have been waiting for you for 77 years, finally you came ........., thanks. Andrzej❤
I've been following Dr Ellie's instructions for a month or two now. After watching her hour-long video, I got all of the necessary items and began in earnest. I'm puzzled by the fact that the Closys website says, "Disrupts dental biofilm" because I'm positive she said that we want to keep that biofilm... I'm following the instructions anyway because she knows what she's talking about! I'm scheduled for my next dental cleaning on August 1st. I actually can't wait to see what my hygienist has to say!
Many of the treatments are indeed unnecessary; notwithstanding, you are most necessary Dr. Phillips. The teeth send their thanks😊 🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷
Wish I discovered your channel earlier. I've done multiple painful fillings and some of them made my teeth sensitive which is very frustrating. I'm glad i found this, thank you!
Dr Ellie's system seems effective. Big improvement in my mouth after a few weeks. I'm accustomed to dentists who want to drill, fill, bill; extract, implant. She doesn't recommend cleanings! Wow.
I recommend you ask if you NEED a cleaning and work to the point where your oral health is so great - you have no need. That’s ultimate oral health! 💫🏆
You may be interested in my oral health video bootcamp at DrEllie.com. This is a collection of 14 videos that “tweak” my system to reach the ultimate level of oral health.
I’ve been using your system now for 4 months. My teeth feel and look great and my checkup last week was much quicker than normal because there was less scraping!
I have been following Dr. Ellie's Complete Mouth Care System for six weeks and my mouth feels clean, my teeth are smooth and my gums look GREAT. No mouth pain at all.
I cant find all the products😢
Its just
1. Chew xylitol gum or xylit8l mints (or if you're cheap like me, get a bag of xylitol and swish your own spit with 1/4 t. A few times a day for a few minutes)
1..pre-rinse before brushing(she uses closys. Even water works)
2.crest regular paste Toothpaste
3.listerine
4. ACT fluoride rinse
@@simonemizzi5494In my country I have only 2 mouth rinse. I don't know that's enough. How can I replace the ACT ? I don't have it.
@@dunedainmomwhat can I replace act with please?
ACT is just a mouthwash with more sodium fluoride (concentration 0.05%) like toothpaste has (most toothpastes have sodium fluoride concentration 0.24%), so its about giv8ng sodium fluoride time on your teeth. If I didn't have ACT, I'd just brush with alot of toothpaste (one inch strip at least) and let the brushing foam mix with my spit and swish it around in my mouth for a few minutes. Then spit it out and not rinse my mouth for 20 min, to give the fluoride spit mixture time to soak into my teeth
I have been experimenting with using pure xylitol crystals - it is amazing. I dont know that it can ever replace the mints but phwoar, xylitol is utterly amazing for mouthfeel
Dr. Ellie is my answered prayer, I could see a big improvement in my smile, I wished I knew about her 10 years ago, I had four implants 5 years ago and it cost a lot of money. Thank you and I pray that you change dental medicine in the near future. For the better 😊
I’m 55. I am excited about dental care these days. My gums and teeth look so good. I have taken pretty moderate care of my teeth for my adult life, most of my problems started when I was a kid, my mom didn’t teach me to take care of my teeth and when I went to the dentist all they did was drill n fill, I feel like the dental field is generally a rip off and all about fixing teeth not preventing or educating like you do. My daughter has had one cavity and she’s an adult now. I have told my family and friends about your system, it’s very affordable and accessible for nearly everyone. I can get just about everything I need in a few trips around town or online. Bless you, Dr. Ellie ❤🦷❤️
I came across this channel just this past week. Feeling guilty of doing a self-inflicted filling in teeth#13 just 3 weeks ago.
My Story: I’m 37 and was never been to a dentist until 34 when it was suggested by my doctor during annual check up. My visit to dentist revealed a cavity in #13. I got mouth debriment and root planning at the time but refused the filling even though the dental office called several times during the next year to remind me of filling. I eat clean and was hoping the cavity won’t progress.
Next year I switched job and a got new dentist for routine cleanings. They said I have periodontal pockets and should be getting more frequent cleanings and a filling in #13. I had to leave that dentist due to unnecessary works they were sugge to do.
This year, I got a swollen gum around #13 just 6 weeks ago even though I had been using string floss and toothpaste based on my dentist recommendations. I believe that flossing caused the injury and teeth #13 started to become more sensitive. I quickly signed up for a new dentist and the exam and x-rays revealed the cavity is of slightly bigger size and approaching nerve gradually. They suggested to get a filling or I will lose my teeth. I panicked and during my due diligence, both the internet searches, and in-person folks I talked to suggested to get one and forget about it for next several years. I was skeptical until the last minute but since they numbed my gums for recent deep cleaning, I said go ahead to a big composite filling.
My post filling sensitivity issues in #13 led me to Dr. Ellie’s protocol and I’m so mad on my decision. I postponed this filling for 3 years, hoping it will heal/remineralize on its own with my disciplined diet and routine brushing and flossing. Now I got the filling with similar sensitivity issues and no chance of natural healing. I just wrote this comment upon trying oral care routine the very first time. My mouth feels so good and clean. I feel so bad for my tooth and this self inflicted wound.
Remaining optimistic, I hope this filling could withstand a decade while on this oral care routine and won’t create problems in future. Though the dentist said that since it was big its life could be 3-5 or max 7 years.
If anyone with composite filling could comment on fillings lifespan on Dr Ellie’s oral care routine.
I promised to my 31 pristine teeth that I won’t be doing harm to them.
Is there a dentist or doctor in the land who is not motivated by money and not patient need or doing least harm?
It's like the electrian who comes over to fix a socket and then tells you the whole house could use rewiring.
I had a huge hole and it healed, and the molar rebuilt itself, and this was 10 years ago, never got a cavity there again. I was studying weston price at the time. I used oregano oil as well directly on the tooth. So yes even severe cavities can heal, but i didn't ate sugar anymore.
Really.
What did you do with this huge hole?
do teeth remineralize after polishing
I have recently done polishing and very very few enamel I think worn so is it possible to repair by own 😢😢😢
Dr. Ellie, I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel! I've had 'bad' teeth since I was a little and have had tons of fillings. I'm 38 and have always done a pretty good job at taking care of my teeth, however here I am still struggling with bad discolored teeth. My kids just went in for a cleaning and a couple of them have several cavities. it's time to do something different.
I hear you, dear one! I am close to twice your age and have lost most of my teeth. But, thankful for running into Dr. Ellie‘s channel. I’m getting the information for my children and grandchildren! As they say, I’m gladly planting the tree, even though I will not be around to see it produce fruit. Smile.
Dentists just do fillings even on small kids - you have to tell them no and that the cavity in milk teeth will not affect the next set of teeth coming in.. they keep you in fear and destroy your teeth
@@nikkifrye7599That is honestly beautiful, we need more people in the world who think like you 🙏 much respect
Truth!!! I’ve sent Dr Ellie’s mouth care system to my kids and encouraged them to start my grandchildren on it.
You are amazing! I am so glad I found you but regret that it took this long! My mouth has gone through a lot but I'm happy to be on your plan now. I feel relief already. Oh and your teeth are amazing, the perfect spokesperson for doing what you do. You are gorgeous!
Great information! One thing I'd like to know is how to know when it is too risky to remineralize and instead should do a filling. @10:19 you mentioned if you feel pain that your nerve is at risk but then @10:37 you said that it is already affected so pain doesn't seem to be a good gauge to prevent a root canal.
In my office, unless someone had serious toothache that lasted over 2 minutes each time they ate something - even if we knew the tooth would eventually need a filling - the tooth will be easier to fill, and the new filling will have a far better chance of success, if you have a healthy mouth at the time the filling is done. I usually allowed my patients about 3 months before we ever did ANY non-emergency treatment.
@@dr.elliephillips thanks!
Can a damaged rotten pulp get better I’m so grateful you are helping me. I’m from Kelowna B.C. Canada
I started her program a few months ago. I haven't been in for a checkup but I can usually feel buildup on the inside of my front teeth after a few months but I don't feel it now.
I think I had numerous fillings where there were just demineralized spots.Now many years later, I get the fillings replaced. It's a vicious cycle. I wish I knew about this 30 years ago.
Exactly and thanks for sharing your experience.
I am sorry about this - but people need to know that a "filling' is just the beginning of problems that never stop.
Avoiding small fillings is so easy it should be a crime to fill them.
Thanks again for sharing - Oh...and it's never too late to start using my system! DrEllie.com
We have been taught to brush our teeth twice a day and go for dental checkup every 6 months or so.
During those visits, when I'm on the dentist chair and the doctor says I have a few fillings to do. I would usually comply because they are the professionals.
But then deep in my thoughts, wouldn't it make a deeper hole as you drill. How long will the filling last? Do they need to drill and fill in again? I'm afraid my tooth may even wear out faster!
Thank you, doctor. Today I learned demineralisation and remineralisation. As they say, 'Prevention is better than cure'
I would rather observe a complete system of mouthcare than to have, sometimes, unnecessary treatment.
The NHS here in the UK knowing I was medically allergic to nickle iron silver etc ignored my medical records giving me metal fillings which led to 15 years of utter agony eventually I lost every tooth , in my Early 40s aswell they still haven't fixed what they caused .. devastating doesn't even begin to describe what I felt . As a woman my life was n is over 😭😪
Sue them. Shocking abuse is going on in Dental Surgeries.

My wife (75) and I (83) are giving parts of your system a try. At my wife's annual cleaning, her dental hygienist remarked that her teeth were noticeably cleaner after just a week on Xylitol and Crest. I have severely receding gums and have been following part of the system for about a month now (Xylitol, Crest, Cool Mint and Act, stopped flossing, twice-daily brushing including massage of the gums using Oral-B electric w/Floss Action head).
My teeth look and feel cleaner and the gums seem to be responding a little to the massaging, but I recently noticed progression of recession on numerous teeth that I never noticed before. I am also concerned that the gums do not appear to be bonding well to the teeth but am resisting the urge to floss. We are giving the system three months before deciding whether to continue or not, and sure hope we don’t regret it.
My questions I have are: 1) what part of the system promotes redevelopment of the bond between the gums and the teeth, and how can I assess progress there; and 2) is any of this system bad for my high blood pressure?
I think that Dr Ellie said that it is the Closys mouthwash that cleans the area under the gums. However, I am in Canada and I cannot get it.
don't use electric toothbrush that can cause recession. Dr. Ellie says to use a basic manual toothbrush. I switch from an electric to a manual using her system and my teeth feel just as clean if not better than when using the electric.
I would stop using the electric tooth brush.
@@keithwilliams5042yes! I’ve stopped using that and my gums are so much happier
Update us sir
I am 70 and i was talked into this filling buisness 30 yrs ago and now i have lost most of my teeth to root canal or have completely lost them unable to chew and now they are advising for implants which is next to impossible
I am so sorry - but thank you for sharing your story. You are the “reason” I am here trying to explain that fillings don’t solve dental disease. I appreciate you taking time to comment. Thanks again.
I haven't been to the dentist since February 2008. No problems. I have just started getting 2 little cavities....let's see what she's got!
I love challenges ..or is it just confidence in this system of care :)
DrEllie.com
My filling fell out. I dont have pain. It was on the side if my tooth. Will zhis system work to rebuild what was drilled out? Thank you for advice.
Ellie, I need to be empowered. Just before I found you I went to a specialist. I had infection, receding gums, and bone loss. I had several teeth pulled, as well deep cleaning under the gums. After my gums and pulled teeth were healed I went back for a check up. I was told I still had problems under the gums and would need to be cut open to remove the infection and that they won't make a temporary/permanent for me until after the surgery was completed . It was after that that I found you. I purchased all of the products you recommended and began using it faithfully. I feel great improvement if not almost 100 % since. My teeth have tightened up, are cleaner and have become stronger. I really do believe my gums are coming back too. With all that said I still need to go back for my temporary/permanent. I wouldn't go back to them at all because the temporary fits very well but the temporary is short two teeth necessary for connecting with two bottom teeth for chewing. At the time when I realized this I didn't think it was a problem since I would soon be getting my temporary/permanent teeth but as I said they won't make them until after I have the surgery. My teeth have improved so much that I don't think I need the surgery on my gums. I am going to call them requesting another check up but feel I need more information and empowerment to back me up. Being professionals I fear they won't listen to me. Where can I get proof and empowerment to fight the fight I may have ahead of me. People have commented that you are only out to make money. I think you really want to help us have better hygiene, teeth and gums so I hope you will give me some good advise to approach the professionals in this matter.

@@nikkifrye7599 I believe all you need is an honest and experienced dentist. But if you use my strategies for a few weeks preceding an appointment - it will be easier for any DDS to help you. I don’t believe holistic DDS are better evaluators than honest general dentists.

@LoyolaMan Thank you, I found and bought everything. Hopefully no mistake. Will be starting the system today 😀
Hey bro can you update us and how many cavities do you have and are they dentin cavities@@francoisedupond5692
I had a tooth which had a bluish tint and I found the tint accidently as it was covered by my cheek. The dentist told me it did look like a decay, even though I take super good care of my oral hygiene. He had it grind and discovered that it was like the leftover of mercury filling replaced with white filling?? No idea but it was NOT a decay! Because of that, I had so much of the tooth removed and replaced with new white filling and caused sensitivity for a while. Thankfully it went away and now I am ok. BUT he should have done X-ray first!!! Unnecessary cost for me too!
I have started the routine and it has helped tremendously. My main concern is using chloride and fluoride while having Hashimoto. Aren’t these endocrine blockers that will prevent iodine from entering the thyroid? I am ready to change products. Plus all the coloring and chemicals throw me off too. I’ve been trying to avoid all that for years.
Hi Dr Ellie, I used to eat amla( Indian gooseberry which is highly acidic) mixed with honey for my hairs but tomorrow I didn't swished my mouth which was totally dumb and it sat on my tooth for 8-9hours now some part of one of my front tooth has thin enamel than the rest.....Can it be remineralized?
That’s crazy I was just thinking about that Kodak device the other day! I think it was called Caries ID ? 🤷♀️
The rep brought in for me to demo. It was supposed to light up and beep when there was decay. It beeped in every tooth!!! 🤣 Btw, I just got your complete system. 😊
Thank you Ellie ❤ Would you be able to talk about perimplantitis? I had 4 implants 18 years ago. I have lost one already. Another one is in danger to fall out for there is bad bacteria around the screws and the jaw bone has been receeding because 2 teeth are now missing in the back. I wonder what to do. I am almost sugar free, even fruits are dessert for me. I have started with a mouth wash with xylitol and fluorid for a month now. After your fantastic recomendations.
I am fully in with your strategies!
You can eat plenty of fruits without fear. Yes, processed sugar is bad not fruits
Doc!, what substitutes are there for ACT and CloSYS?
- Thanks.
If you re in the UK she says to use Ultradex for Closys and Fluorigard for ACT.
@@Susie.wemove Thank you very much for the info! I'm English, but living in Cambodia. I'll have a look for those; It's great to have more options :)
You are welcome- she has the info in her blogs and some videos. If you can't get crest anti cavity toothpaste she recommends oral b 123 freshmint. I actually prefer fluorigard(colgate) to the ACT
@@Susie.wemove The exact Crest and Listerine and Xylitol gum are available here. But thanks again for the info of another option.
Oil pulling does work, anyway, how much do your products cost? What would you do if there was a small crack in a filling that was done years ago?
She had me on prevention of fillings
Dr. Ellie,
I wish I found you earlier. I had a 10mm pocket and bone loss. I had bone graft surgery last year but now my periodontist wants to pull out 2 molars due to failed bone graft. I have started your system for a month now. I wonder if there is still hope to safe those two molars after a failed bone graft.
Possibly - be sure you are doing the gum massage - using xylitol at the end of meals and allowing time for your own saliva to heal these gums after meals - which means no sipping or snacking between meals. You may like my oral health video bootcamp to help you with the small changes that can make a big difference.
Good toothbrushes are vital and most people are using brushes that are too soft.
I’m 29 almost 30 never had any oral issues until last visit doc recommended a small filling using the scanner tool. Told them to hold off for 6 months will try this system and check again and see if it goes away
Dental work is so expensive even with insurance. My highly educated dentist pushes cosmetic work a lot when in my mind it is not needed. The older dentists were not into that as much.
can you reverse enamel-level cavities that had formed around old (white) fillings by using your system? can the presence of the filling compromise the healing process in any way?
I cannot answer that - it all depends on how they drilled and filled the tooth.
i'd say it is always worth 6-9 months trying my system and see what happens.
Be sure to use the toothbrushes that I recommend and brush these areas well - as they are often plaque traps that can stain easily.
Staining would be the most likely problem - but either you or a dental cleaning would clean this off ....so yes, I'd recommend giving this a try.
Thank you for your reply, Dr Ellie! I don’t understand what you mean by staining is the most likely problem. I’ve been using your system for a week now and noticed that my white fillings that I only had installed a few months ago are noticeably brown and there is also some brown staining on my other teeth. Are the rinses staining my teeth?!
@@is9893 No, it is not likely that the rinses are staining your teeth. Dr. Ellie meant that those areas of the old white fillings are plaque traps because white composite filling material attracts the growth of plaque. Then, they can stain easily because the staining is normally old dead plaque bacteria that has died off quickly and in a large amount due to your mouth conditions suddenly improving. That die-off leaves staining, which she said can be removed by either you (brushing those teeth harder with one of the approved medium-firmness toothbrushes), or else cleaned off by a hygienist at a dental cleaning.
Thanks Dr Elli! For all your videos! Your information is gold ❤ some Dentist just see their patients as $ signs😢
I went to the dentist regularly and now as an adult my teeth need tons of work 🤦♀️ My siblings barely went and all still have their teeth. Mine are horrible. They looked great until I started letting dentists work on them.
Why do these TH-cams always end up as dentist bashing sites?This dentist lady is trying to help people with her advice, yes, like every profession there’s good and bad but don’t blame everyone else for your neglect.
Any thoughts on radiation exposure from dental X-rays?
My dentist wants to do X-rays every 6 months. That’s why I avoid the dentist.
Not to mention the cleanings are creating more tooth and gum sensitivity for me.
Every six months? I'm no expert, but that seems like a lot. Did they give a reason for that frequency?
Here is some info on X-rays that I wrote down years ago:
1) Always have the hygienist use the thyroid cover over your throat area in addition to the lead apron whenever they take X-rays.
2) To reduce your exposure to radiation, refuse panoramic X-rays unless there is a true actual need for one (many dentists do them just because insurance companies will now cover them).
3) Ask the technician to take only 2 bitewings of your mouth instead of 4 if you are not at a big risk. Oftentimes, 4 bitewings is completely unnecessary, and particularly if you have a smaller mouth.
4) Take Vitamin C right before your appointment.
5) I don't know if this has changed by now or not, but at the time I wrote this down, the then-current FDA guidelines for adult dental X-rays recommended bitewings every 2-3 years (instead of yearly or, heaven forbid, every 6 months), if you have no tooth decay and are not at high risk for cavities.
6) It does not matter if your dentist wants you to do really frequent X-rays; you are under no compulsion to have to do anything that the dentist suggests if you don't want to. You cannot afford to be passive when it comes to issues vital to health and quality of life. It is your own health, not your dentist's own health, that he is affecting or putting at risk, so you should take control of your own health and not risk just putting yourself in the hands of others or accepting whatever is standard practice. Your doctor should work with you, but you should be in charge of your own health and stand your ground. Don't be afraid to explain how you feel and assert your own wishes, even if it makes for an uncomfortable situation.
I had a child age 42yrs. I'm now 52yrs old. My molars are cracked/ broken, since the pregnancy. Its so difficult in the UK to get an appointment with a registered dentist. However, they're focused on money. Can you help me please?
Dr. Ellie's first recommendation for you would be to immediately start on her full program and that you may see huge improvements in your oral health within 3-6 months if you do everything correctly and thoroughly.
Help me. I’ve already lost three teeth. All had fillings. Two of them cracked. One cracked from Food and another cracked open by itself. At this point I’m going to lose all my teeth. It doesn’t matter that I’m trying my best despite the fact that I have to take inhalers and my teeth are yellow. I still get told it’s my fault, but even teeth that I’ve had filled are hurting. What do I do? No one seems to be able to help me in anyway. I’m only 37 and I think I’m going to have dentures by my 40s.
Dr. Ellie, I love your channel. I suffer from periodontitis and oral lichen planus. Can you recommend a good mouthwash to use in conjunction with CloSys?
Can you do a video that focuses on periodontitis and oral lichen planus? Thank you!
This is info i am looking for. Just have a failed root canal talking about extraction and implant. I have spent many thousands. The mote they drill the more your teeth will need more work. Its a racket. I dont want to die of infection or lose all my teeth. Losing teeth leads to bone loss. I am willing to try her system.
I actually hate dentists anymore. I’ll never forgive myself for allowing radical behavior in my mouth. I was naive and stupid for being compliant.
Dr Ellie.. Your xylitol sugar works.. My excruciating nerve pain subsided after sucking lots of xylitol. I took pain killers prior but two days I need not take painkillers s.. I going to my dentist later. They want to do a root canal.. Half my teeth is gone .maybe I will discuss if a root canal is necessary.. Or just a crown.. Ur xylitol eases my dying nerve pain so much.! Prior to that I had painkillers and tcm but with added xylitol.. The pain improved tremendously!., but half my teeth is gone. Will update more.. I bought the toothpaste and mouthwash listerine.. I still can't find the closys rinse.. Will try and buy the act rinse.. Amazing
Please don't use the Listerine alone without following it up with the ACT fluoride rinse! She advises to never end the procedure with Listerine as it will leave your mouth too acidic and that would be harmful.
Dear Dr. Ellie,
What would you recommend for plaque and tartar building un around teeth implants ?
Thank you!
Xylitol and my Complete Mouth Care System will eliminate plaque formation in about 6 months and the mouth care routines will dissolve any tartar away.
DrEllie.com for the details and more information.
Please can u tell me which are alternative mouthwashes in Europe?
Ultradex and Colgate Fluorigard. But I would try to get exactly what the doctor has recommended
Have you got enough time if you have a cavity grade 3-4? Can I reverse that with xylitol, the mounthwash and toothpaste you suggest, let's say try it for some weeks, months? I am waiting for my xylitol, it will hopefully arrive within the next 2 weeks.
Did you mean that an x ray can show a dark shadow, but it does not neccesary have to be a cavity? They never know before they open up?
$393 for 1 filling in Nova Scotia . They took the old filling out and put other stuff in and it took about 20 minutes. Now it still hurts. Wish now I had it removed!!
Thank you for this great educational information!
Dr Ellie thank you so much god bless you for the info 🙏
Thank you so much for this information I so appreciate it thank you, 51 yers old and I have a mouth full of fillings sad but true PS started your system a week ago 👍
That’s great. There’s lots of help and info on my website at DrEllie.com. You may like to learn from the oral health video bootcamp once you get started.
@@dr.elliephillips thanks again 👍 will take a look when I have a chance
i was in the dental office with my long time dentist (15 years) and SCREAMED at him for never suggesting i use xylatol. I was LIVID! this was after him telling me i needed 6 fillings. I now use your system of care exclusively
I am so sorry there is such misinformation and disinterest in the dental world about xylitol.
What would you suggest for people who have already developed periodontal disease?
My Complete Mouth Care System can cure periodontal disease.

FYI, after a regular brushing, eliminating the glycerine residue with a brushing of Ivory soap (no taste,) I've had over 2 decades of zero cavities. And one cavity not yet filled when I started, filled itself in.
Source: Chemist on the radio (The Power Hour, Joyce Riley) who solved his cavity problem that way. He also reported cavities healing from this treatment.
Thank you for sharing @eleanorweiss4217. Could you please specify which ivory soap? Ivory as brand?
Why are you posting it here? Make your own channel and spam there
@@LoyolaMan I think that their comment is Ok here. He/she does talk about teeth. So what is the problem?
@@Alien2799 You are wrong. it is called unwanted promotion. Make your channel and promote BS there
Can I still get caries/cavities if I eat zero carbohydrates?
Yes. It’s impossible to control cavities simply with diet if you have an infected mouth, acidic saliva, or a lack of saliva or other risk factors.
@@dr.elliephillips Thank you for the answer!
What do you think of hydroxyapatite. I was using Rx fluoride toothpaste and switched to hydroxyapatite because I didn’t like the negative side effects of fluoride. Since switching my teeth have been a lot less sensitive.
It’s a bandaid on the problem. I don’t recommend. The minerals in your saliva work best - give them time to heal your teeth. DrEllie.com for more info.
Hello, I have the old black fillings should I have them removed? And my gums are black what should I do.
I don't know what you mean about your gums being black, but in general Dr. Ellie does not recommend having old silver fillings removed if they are not causing you any trouble. She says the white fillings are no better, from a different aspect.
Dr. please which one if the systems will be good for my teen boy and 10 and a nine year old. The dentist says they have cavities anytime we go there. Please help. Thank you
The entire system works for children I’ve had my sons on it for 6 years
Would this regimen help with a tooth that has a tiny crack? It’s a tooth with an old filling but I’m being told I should get a crown. No sensitivity whatsoever. Thank you!
If I were in your shoes I’d give my strategies at least a 3-6 month experiment and you may be surprised at the result. DrEllie.com for a free booklet. Ensure you stop sipping or snacking between meals - even water. The key is to let your enamel be healed by your own saliva.
My partner's dentist told her that she had a cracked tooth that would need a crown. I suggested to my partner that she try Dr. Phillips' system for awhile first. She didn't make an appointment for the crown and instead went full-on into the mouth care system. At her next cleaning (in six months), the crack was gone!
Wats yr take on root canals done n later problems with it? Also they say it is better to remove it instead. If so r implants good or even necessary??
10 yrs sgo i got one done (dentist said it was necessary!) That time i wasn't aware but now i believe our bodies are able to heal n hence hope it works for teeth too. Few days back a part of some filling of d tooth next to d RC molar broke off n now another dentist suggests same RC for this tooth n i don't want to.
Am gonna try yr routine 💚🙏
Hi!
I broke my tooth.
I think it had been reconstructed already and thats what broke out.
It's a big chunk of tooth, no pain though. Just rough in the tongue.
What would you recommend?
Allow reconstruction?
Thank you
Hello doctor Phillips, I have a tooth on my upper right side where my palate Is, It Is uncovered by my palate AND It hurts me when I drink hot beberages. What can I do?
I have buying the things of your programa.
I live un México
and I can not buy them here do I así dome friends to get them for me from the States
I apareciste your teaching lot.
Thank you Veri mucho.
Good bless you!
It would be best if you can obtain all of the products Dr. Ellie recommends so you can use her complete system. If you have friends who can get those products for you, ask them to do so.
Dentist has done filling with miracle mix material. In this case, can I do oil pulling to reverse the tooth decay? Does this any harm to filling material.
I’ve been using this system for just over three months and my mouth is now a mess! I don’t understand. I have checked several times that I am using the right products, and I stopped flossing as she recommends.
I now get gum sores that come and go. My front teeth are getting stains (from tea) like never before. And I now have at least 2 teeth that are sensitive to temperature (more hot than cold).
Prior to using the system, I had used natural products for at least 20 years. I even went 8 years at one point without a dental visit and they were shocked because I had no plaque build up nor any cavities.
I changed to this system after watching many Dr Ellie videos and wanting to ensure that I have strong, healthy teeth well into my senior years. Now I’m wondering if I made a mistake?!?
Again, I follow the system exactly. Using the right products and even time myself using a stopwatch, for rinsing and brushing. Nothing about my diet has changed. I eat little to no added sugars, lower carb, and plenty of fresh, organic foods with plenty of fiber.
What could be going wrong? Should I stop using this system?
Edited to include: I am also consuming 2-5g of xylitol mints per day
Are you drying your toothbrush between uses? The staining was normal for me but had it cleaned off by my dentist and it didn’t happen again, might just be the dead plaque taking on the stain.
@@jpnovak923
Yes. I use the two toothbrushes as recommended.
Also, I started this protocol within a week of my last dental cleaning. So there shouldn’t have been much plaque on my teeth when I started.
@@BrianHThayerboth my wife and I had staining in the beginning but it stopped after consistent use
Sounds like a scam. Just have less sugar in your diet and brush your teeth every day. The dentist isn't necessary at all.
But what about the increase in gum sores, and the increased temperature sensitivity? I thought the protocol was supposed to help with these issues - not create them?
What do you suggest for teeth grinding that’s causing sensitivity?
Dr Ellie, how about if we eat granulated xylitol directly, like 1/4 of a tea spoon, instead of a mint? Would that be ok too? Thanks for all the useful info you provide!!
Is this helpful for dental cavity?
I have initial cavity in molars
How can i cure them?
DrEllie.com
what about us outside the country where we cant find the crest toothpaste nor the xylitol gums .. what can we do??
What would you recommend for a pregnant woman with a hole in tooth and swollen gums?
Dr Ellie I really love you idea but I'm from India and I can't get any of the product that you suggest or from your mouthcare system except xylitol. Please reply doctor you never reply please suggest some alternative products I have cavities on my 4 molor teeths and I can see they can be remineralized but I really need your suggestion on this, please help doctor.
Very interesting. Does it mean i need to wait for an hour after using xilatol? Is 1 tea spoon of xilatol enough at the end of the mea l?
Should I still be using Cool Mint after brushing my teeth if I don’t have the other products you recommend.?, I’m using Xylitol after every meal, but don’t have access to the other items.
What about White spots? Is there a way to get rid of those? I had braces and have these white spots. I tried to get icon but they said I’m not a candidate. What can I do?
I’d suggest my strategies that strengthen enamel. The stronger your surrounding enamel the less you will notice these white spots, and in some cases they may get better and possibly disappear.
The time for this is between 3-6 months - so it’s certainly worth a try before thinking about veneers or cosmetic options.

I hv been watching over n over again but some of the products I can't find here. Will my cavities heal? I'm disabled. I can't afford to keep going dentist. My dental pain is so bad that I can't get out of bed. Took ponstan and rinse with salt Himalayan. Rest. Took echinacea.. I feel like dying
Praying for you🙏
@@Rachaelc1776 thank you. 🙏
@@wasabi6507 You’re welcome 😊🙏
Can you at least get plain xylitol granules or crystals that come loose in a 1-pound bag? It is very reasonably priced that way, and if you could at least start using xylitol, and take at least 6 to 7 doses every day (1 gram or about 1/4 teaspoon for each dose, put into your mouth and swish around for 2 to 5 minutes before you swallow it), you would actually get a lot of benefit just from doing that. Someone else here on this page in the comments said that he had painful tooth decay and that when he started using xylitol, it immensely reduced his pain. If you can't do anything else in Dr. Ellie's program besides the xylitol, then rinsing with salt water is actually a very good thing to do. I will pray for you also.
Hi Dr. Ellie Phillips, I damaged the enamel on my two front lower teeth many years ago and that seems to be the only place where I have plaque build up now.
From what I've researched there is no hope of repairing the enamel.
Based on your knowledge do you know if this is true or is there a way to repair enamel?
Can you use no alcohol listerine? I’ve been using the regular but noticed they offer in alcohol free. Thank you so much for all your expertise.
I believe she says cool mint is another option but nothing else.
@@canadianmom cool mint comes in alcohol free as well, that’s my questions, does it matter? I know she says no alcohol in the ACT but can’t find where she specifies in the listerine 😏🤔🙃
Listerine Original or Cool Mint alcohol version only
My theory is to make my mouth alkaline after every meal and snack. I chose the method of eating celery after every meal and snack., Then after the celery I use Xylitol to produce the saliva for remineralization. I'm hoping this strategy will reverse two small cavities. I like your Xylitol products because you don't put glycerine in them..
Dr Ellie , Can I still use the complete mouth care system after impacted wisdom teeth surgery ? Or should I wait until my gums fully heal in 4weeks ?
what should i do if there is no smiliar product with stabilised chlorine dioxide as a first step of mouthcare? i did the research and found substitutes for everything except for that
Maybe unstabilized chlorine dioxide? Needs to be refrigerated
You can just start with a water rinse of your mouth. Preferably water at a neutral pH of 7
You will loose the benefits that reduce periodontal pathogens. Is gum disease a main problem for you?
I used this system for a short time, and then noticed that my teeth were becoming sensitive. There's a technique used by dentist where a compound (I have no idea what it is) on a Q-tip is pressed onto the tooth, to see if a nerve is alive. My teeth felt like that - sensitive roots while swooshing. Also, my bottom teeth are becoming discolored and are no longer smooth. I'm not sure which of the 3 treatments are causing this, but I would appreciate if I could get some advice. Thanks!!
You may want to ensure that you have the EXACT formulations of every product - and are using them in the exact method.
DrEllie.com for more information and help.
@@dr.elliephillips I am definitely using the exact formulas that are listed in your program. The ACT rinse does say 1Xdaily, and I'm doing everything twice a day. Could that be the problem? There's a prescription rinse that's used for a day or two before dental surgery that has a disclaimer that it can cause discoloration, so that brought me here to ask. Thank you for your reply!
Does your program work for sevee tooth decay that gives me excruciating dental pain. I'm hesitating to go extraction. Please answer me. I'm so depressed and suicidal. My brain injury causing me vomit a lot and I have dental decay. I have bought many toothpaste and eat a lot of butter and my decay still didn't heal. 😭
Doctor Ellie, i got dark stain between all teeth 2-3 weeks after dental cleaning and 2 months on your system. I do floss some places were food stucks and front lower teeth where i have orrhodontic wire to retain their allignment. I saw the dentist to clean plaque around wire and some stain. No new plaque since, but the stain is now the worst i ever had. I only eat 2-3 times a day, no snacks. Should i double zellies? Or clean again and then double?
I’d recommend checking your toothbrushes - that you are using the resilient ones I recommend & have enough to let them dry for 24 hours between uses. Don’t soak your brush in anything - allow them to air dry. Otherwise they get too soft.
I think you just need to brush these areas of staining a bit more vigorously.
I have gum disease 50% top 70% bottoms. Im 62 and known for my big smile the periodontist said he wants to do scaling and root planting does this help? He also told me hes not able to build up the bone around my teeth but will do the deep cleanings. Is this my only hope. He did say I had no cavities except two very tiny cavities he wants to fill. He wants to remove a very healthy molar because its in the way of cleaning my gums around it. Does this sound right?
I'm 64 and had scaling and root planing. It didn't really help to be honest. Every subsequent appointment, I still had deep pockets, cavities, etc-- even though I was flossing and using a water pik. After losing yet another molar (which had previously been filled and crowned), I started this system. My gums have grown back like the dentist said they never would, and my teeth feel great. I wish I had known about this long ago. I've learned to despise most dentists. Their "work" has caused me much suffering.
@@kimclark5736what is the system? Is it costly to find out? Does it stop gum disease that's advanced?
@@lynnmicucci7086 Why don't you see the video and then put up comments?
I am wondering if it would be possible to use other brands/flavors of mouthwash as long as they have the same ingredients? For example, the green FreshBurst Listerine has the same ingredients as the Cool Mint. Additionally, Rexall has a dye-free antiseptic mouthwash that has identical ingredients to the Cool Mint Listerine, minus the dye! Is there any reason not to use these other mouthwashes if the ingredients are identical? Please advise.
Here is the list of ingredients from the Rexall dye-free mouthwash:
Eucalyptol 0.092%,
Menthol 0.042%
Methyl salicylate 0.060%,
Thymol 0.064%
water, alcohol (21.6% v/v), sorbitol, poloxamer 407, benzoic acid, sodium saccharin, sodium benzoate, flavor.
I can only advise you use the products I know work and we have used for over 45++ years.
If you decide to mix these around - you may get different results - I just can't know.
I know what I know and I trust this system.
Why not use the strategies I recommend and get your mouth in ultimate oral health status - and then you could experiment and see what else works.
This would be especially good advice if you currently have any dental concerns you want to fix.

I was reading the ingredients on the cool, mint Listerine, the 1 L size I hope that’s the right one and one of the greetings is sucralose so I don’t know what to do about this. Should I continue with the mouthwash? Why is there sugar in there?
Discontinue and buy Cool Mint version with alcohol that the doctor actually recommended or Original.
