  • Did you know your oral health directly affects your overall health, longevity, and risk for chronic diseases like Alzheimer’s?
    Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Dr. Mark Burhenne to address why you need to start doubling down on your oral health for chronic disease prevention and tips for how to get started today. In this episode, Dr. Burhenne discusses why flossing is so essential, best practices, and the cleanest products on the market today.
    He also shares the proper mechanics of teeth brushing and why over-the-counter mouthwash and toothpaste may be causing more harm than good. Dhru and Dr. Burhenne dig into the benefits of mouth taping, the best and worst diets for oral health, the connection between your oral and gut microbiome, and so much more.

    -How our oral health and dental health relate to longevity
    -The connection between dental health and Alzheimer’s disease
    -Why you need to floss
    -How our face structure differs from our ancestors

      I felt so much better immediately as dentist pulled it out.
      He continued to pull all the rest too. I am so glad all the bad teeth are gone.
      Going to get a second dentist to do a inspection and evaluation of first dentist. I might have second dentist do any tooth fragment removel and take down any high spots that will get in way of dentures & make dentures for me..😊😊
      Plus I am practicing water fasting that takes away a fatty tongue which causes different folks to need a sea-pap breathing device. I don't need one of those myself..😊😊

    My dentist told me that my gums looked awesome and asked what I was doing. I told him that I brushed and flossed once a day (before bedtime) and was following a keto diet. He responded by saying that all of his patients on a keto diet had excellent gums and teeth. So I asked why doesn’t he recommend a keto diet. He said that he was a dentist and wasn’t going to give nutrition advice.

      Your dentist wants to keep making money by keeping his patients full of cavities and that's obviously why he doesn't recommend keto for oral health. lol. That's just how it is because with no problem there's no reason for the solution.

    My beloved mom lost most of her teeth before her 50's. She had dentures afterwards.
    She had stomach issues and had her gallbladder removed which I tie the stomach issues causing the gallbladder issues . He's diet was altered as she would eat fermented foods, greasy foods sour foods. She developed dementia in her late 80's . She didn't recognize me as her daughter. She died at 90 due to medical malpractice. She was getting gastroscopy for stomach ulcers and her esophagus was perforated. Behind the esophagus is aorta which most likely was severed so she bled out to death during the procedure. They didn't even try to resuscitate her.
    My mom's mother loved till 96 with all her teeth without brushing. She ate sauerkraut few times a week as she lived on a farm growing her own food. She too had Alzheimer's.
    I'm in my 50's and paying attention to my health as I'm fortunate to have the right information.
    Since I've changed my diet to keto, I no longer have cavities, my insulin resistance is good. Last year have changed toothpaste and this year stopped using mouthwash. Today I've learned about silk dental floss which is going to replace the industry standard floss . I used to brush my tongue with the toothbrush at the end of my teeth brushing routine. .

    • @sherischenkman6708
      @sherischenkman6708 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dr Ellie's program is a whole system. She contradicts many of this speakers claims. She says floss 'string' and a scraper dont kill the bacteria in the mouth. Dr Ellie gives a whole system of mouth rinses and brushing that works synergistically.

    • @sherylmcguire1790

    • @artsiecrafty4164
      @artsiecrafty4164 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I’m confused. Recently I started on her protocol, now this one is totally different. He does not recommend mouthwash at all. The two are completely different. They both like xylitol.

    • @sherylmcguire1790
      @sherylmcguire1790 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes I noticed the differences too. Not sure what to say except pray then listen. My teeth have been white and no dark tartar, UNTIL my dentist gave me chlorihexadine. Not sure why he gave it to me, maybe because they don’t know about the mouthwashes I was already using and 2 of my teeth broke off so maybe he thought that would keep infection away. But that stuff turned the tartar dark!
      I would ask the question if Listerine kills all bacteria, I don’t think it does, as the results it gets do not appear to support that idea. Chlorohexadine likely does though.

For the last 25 years, I’ve done everything that Dentist has said to do, probably except for using an electric toothbrush on a regular basis. For some reason I couldn’t get with that program. I’ve had so much tarter over the years that all of my dentists have convinced me to go for cleaning every three months. I have been meticulous with that because I don’t want to lose my teeth. I’ve had gum disease this whole time with no results or very little. Onseeing your video you both of have givin me ideas how to improve my mouth health.

    This is the second time recently that I've heard about the microbiome in the mouth. I'm guilty of eating too much sugar and when I do I notice that my mouth feels yucky. Even when I eat bread I notice my gums feel irritated. I've been cutting back almost completely. It almost feels like as soon as I eat sugar or carbs I feel it in my whole body right away. It's hard to explain. This video has now terrified me about my teeth. I have sensitivity. I have brushed too hard. I want to keep my teeth!

      What does your dentist say about your gums.... If pink 🩷 Not inflamed, swollen or pull'n away from your teeth... You sound good.... Just get a good water pic to Not be hard on them but flush out debris and bacteria daily to keep gums healthy so they can hold on to your teeth... Far better than mouth wash or often flossing....
      Gums are the secret seldom exp'd, Sugar isn't as tough if you're pay'n close attention to your gums.... If you make more plax than usual get em cleaned every 2-4mons... Found that out the hard way.... It's the build that creates the issues.... If Keto can show it deters that it would be huge for plax builders and those that frankly can't always afford dental ins.... That's what we really need access to to Help people be healthier!

      Your mouth is not separate from your body. Dentists only know about the mouth. If you want to keep your teeth, remove sugar and gluten, take d3+k2, ReMag (magnesium), ReMyte (minerals), Nordic Naturals fish oil, eat sauerkraut, natto, miso, kimchi etc. Also eat pasture-raised eggs, grass-fed meat, avocadoes, cruciferous vegetables, broccoli sprouts, bone broth, hemp seeds, chia seeds, colostrum, spirulina, kelp or seaweed etc. Your gut is EVERYTHING.
      But you need to make sure you have high stomach acid to be able to absorb the nutrients. We are what we absorb. Digestive enzymes before meals will also help with nutrient absorption.
      Good luck.

    Big fan of Dhru P. here. Also of Dr B. So many great takeaways. I’ll definitely start introducing Bristle to my dental patients. The root canal dilemma has been underrated for way too long. I do my best to avoid doing them if possible but if a patient’s tooth requires it and is a good candidate (no fractures etc.) I will do it with a Lightwalker Laser. It’s called PIPS ending. This bubbles out much more of the pulp tissues. I won’t refer to a specialist unless they use this technique.

    In 1981 I had extremely bad gingivitis and my gums were operated on. I ended up having 4 gum transplants.
    Since then I have looked after my gums really well. I learned about effect of mouthwash on the oral microbiom about three months ago and no longer use tooth paste or mouthwash. At 76 I'm a biohacker and look after my gums by spending many minutes a day cleaning my mouth with electric brushes of different kinds, tongue scraping and usingvsoft picks instead of flissing.

    @maryrenaud6732 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Dr Ellie Phillips asserts flossing damages the gums and is not necessary with her proper dental hygiene program….this involves several mouthwashes, closys to normalize acidity, a fluoride toothpaste and special brush to use for teeth and also gum massage, listerine, and ACT a no alcohol fluoride rinse, plus liberal use of xylitol after meals, snacks, or drinks. Many people assert a drop in plaque, tooth sensitivity, no cavities, and regrowth the of receding gums in time, using this system.
    So this differs quite a bit from your flossing recommendations, and ‘no fluoride’ stance. Some of the mouthwash has other chemicals in it that I worry about.
    Why are these recommendations so divergent??? Very hard to reconcile.

    • @jaycarver4886

      I used her method years ago and my oral health seemed to have improved although I hadn't been to a dentist to see what he thought during that time. I quit doing it for some reason...can't remember why other than maybe just so many products to keep up with. My mouth is a mess now because I grind and nash my teeth in my sleep and have chipped or even fractured some through the root. Dental work is outrageously expensive and insurance covers almost nothing. If oral health is so important it seems that a lot more would be covered in order to avoid other major health problems down the road.

    As a 71 year-old Baby Boomer, living in the UK, where for the last 40 years, dental treatment has often been just unaffordable or unavailable, the first branch of the NHS which failed absolutely, my teeth were ruined by postwar ersatz, and synthetic highly processed foods, smoking, which everyone did, primitive dentistry and "oral hygiene products" - toothpastes, mouthwashes and nylon toothbrushes, synthetic fibre flosses, etc. Foodstuffs caused cavities, overexcavated and overfilled with mercury silver amalgam fillings, particularly in premolars and molars, which caused longterm bactericide in the oral region (apart from long-term mercury vapour emission, silver is highly toxic to organisms in the close aqueous environment of the oral cavity), and as a result I have only 3 intact upper molars, the remnants of a fractured upper molar at gum level, a single upper premolar, and a full upper set of canine and incisors. My lower dentition is even more sparse with no molars. My molars fragmented and dehisced during my 30s to 50s. I stopped smoking over 17 years ago, and gum erosion and recession stopped, and I stopped using "oral hygiene products" apart from natural bristle toothbrushes 2 years ago. I use bamboo toothpicks for removal of trapped food fragments. I also chew licorice root and use the fibre to clean the gums, teeth, palate, tongue and cheeks. I brush from dry after eating, but just swallow and just let saliva recoat my mouth afterwards. I then rinse the brush and let it dry. I no longer have tartar deposits, my gums no longer bleed when brushed, my remaining 16 teeth no longer are sensitive to cold, heat, or acid. My breath remains fresh. I now ferment homemade cider vinegar, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi and fermented chilli oil, as daily dietary additions to a low carb, but otherwise unrestricted diet except by time, only consuming food within a window of less than 10 hours each day.
