1. Xylitol after meals 2. Closys Ultra Sensitive mouth rinse before brushing. Half of what the bottle recommends to use. Use for ONLY one minute. 3. Resilient dense tooth brush with good brissels. 4. Crest cavity prevention tooth paste. 5. Start brushing by brushing on the inside of teeth on bottom, massage gums. If going to floss, do it right after brushing with toothpaste still on the teeth. 6. Let toothbrush dry for 24 hours before uses. 7. Rinse with Listerine cool mint or original. Original is tiny bit more powerful. Always use full strength. Rinse as long as you can stand it, even if only for s second. 8. Rinse with Act mouthwash zero alcohol Anti-cavity. Purchase smaller bottles, not larger. Larger have more water in them than the smaller bottles. Best to rinse for a minute.
I saw this video about 2.5 weeks ago. I have really bad tarter build up and plaque. I am 72 years old, and have a lot of gum recession and bone loss. After you explained exactly what to do, I bought the products you recommended and started a twice a day regimen. Shortly, a few days later my teeth started to feel extremely smooth and “nice”. Just like they have always felt after a cleaning. I had just started a 4 month recall for cleanings because my mouth was such disaster 4 months ago. My pockets were deep and when the hygienist cleaned my teeth I had a lot of bleeding and sensitivity. So, I know you do not recommend teeth cleaning, but I had this scheduled and just wanted to see if my 2.5 weeks on this plan made any real difference. Well, to my excitement, my hygienist couldn’t get over the improvement and wanted to know everything I’ve been doing. I told her, but I didn’t really tell her it had only been 2.5 weeks. She said keep doing this. She said I had no bleeding, my plaque was non-existent! I actually didn’t tell her I had not flossed for 2.5 weeks either, but I intend to. All I can say is THANK you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve never had “good” teeth, my moth is full of crowns and recession, but I finally feel like I am doing the right thing and it really showed up so quickly. Everyone should do your Complete Mouth Care System twice a day and see the difference! ( and don’t wait until your 72)!!
@SueHagen1. You used the complete system, including Listerine, twice a day? I’ve been following the system 1x/day for the last few weeks but think it may be beneficial to use it 2x/day since I have a history of pockets. Thanks
@@nickt.7305 Last thing before sleeping is essential and ideally about 12 hours later - at some time during the day is the best time for that x2 daily use of this system. Don't forget the Zellis/xylitol after meals and try to not eat or drink for at least an hour or two afterward. The reason for x2 is that immature (baby) plaque bacteria grow into longer more challenging plaque bacteria within 12 hours. You want to take care of them before they make this change. Check out this video - it shows plaque growing on celan teeth. Watch at the start of the video (16 hours after cleaning teeth) and then toward the end of the video ( 22+ hours) and you will probably decide that using my system twice a day is worthwhile :) th-cam.com/video/q26YhisTg7U/w-d-xo.html
Hello r. Phillips, You really are an angel for sharing this amazing protocol you developed. I'm just wondering though, did you mean not to eat or drink anything two hours after the mints-gum chewing, or the mouthwash?
I'm absolutely amazed how the Crest alone is doing compared to newer formulas I have been using. Love the explanation it all checks out logcially. Waiting on a my full tubes of Crest and the Closys to arrive but so far I've learned more about how to brush and maintain my mouth here than anywhere else. #1 Tooth decay food; High fructose corn syrup carbonated drinks in combination with bleached white flour pizzas, especially ones with a dense crust. My mouth looks like the moon after years on that junk.
@@Bawkrhi, dentist here. Your dentist doesn’t tell you this because this is not what they studied. And even if I study this, what sounds like good information I cannot practice this in my clinic as we are supposed to follow “evidence based dentistry” according to NHS England. This is done so if and when we are taken to court (more people love to do this than you can imagine) we have something to back us up. Maybe if I am working in India my hometown I can wholeheartedly put this into my practice with patients.. so no point blaming dentists really. This lady here is very passionate and I respect her for the difference she’s making but it’s not all common sense in our world.
I made this note for myself & hubby... so thought it would be useful for someone. CLEANING TEETH WHEN? - 1. Right before you go to sleep. No eating drinking after. - 2. Time when you know you won’t eat/drink for another hour. (Great if there can be under 12 hours between the cleans. HOW TO CLEAN? 1. Begin with mouthwash CloSYS - FOR 1 MINUTE ONLY! Tiny sherry glass amount. Bathe from side to side... tip head forward/sideways so all the difficult areas are ‘bathed’... no need to squish or flush, it will run down where it needs to as you bathe the teeth fully. (If ‘pockets’... bathe gently and mouth will do the work - don’t follow instructions on bottle, follow Dr Ellie.). Then spit out. 2. Wet toothbrush, add 2 peas of toothpaste then small circles on the gums where root is. (If you decide you have to floss use it at this stage so it drags the toothpaste through the gaps in the teeth. 3. Wash your toothbrush and stand up so it dries well! 4. Spit out the blob of toothpaste (don’t wash off with water). 5. Now rinse with Listerine Cool Mint (or Original which is a tiny bit more powerful) only: If too sensitive, rinse for long as you can stand it, don’t dilute it even if you can only stand it for a second! If it starts burning spit it out (you will build up tolerance and be able to rinse longer as you go on to 30/60 seconds). Squish in and out between teeth (it is liquid floss 😊). 6. The moment it starts to burn, wash it off with ACT for ideally 1 minute (the most important mouth rinse).
I just had my 6 month check up. My hygienist couldn’t stop complimenting me on how fantastic my teeth and gums looked. She wanted to know what I was doing. I explained that I had started your program last summer and stopped flossing. She was floored! Could not believe it. I gave her the links to your videos. She said her mind was blown and couldn’t wait to watch your videos. Thank you Dr Ellie. I tell everyone about you and your program.👏👏👏👍
@@dr.elliephillipsI started your recommendation 7 months ago I had predontel disease. I just had a dental X-ray s week ago and X-ray came out great. But my hygienist removed plaque. Why did I still get plaque. What am I doing wrong?
Dr Ellie’s mentors in dental education forced her to take higher level science classes because she was a woman. I wonder if they were hoping she might drop out? However, not only did it make her a better dentist because she is more qualified, but what she learned made her more compassionate to her patience to truly want to help them! I’d say God uses everything (even potential setbacks) for our good and His glory!
Back then, yes. They definitely wanted her to drop out, go home and get married, and raise kids. Back then, most people thought that was a woman’s place. Not as a dentist.
It absolutely works - I am 67 and haven’t been to a dentist for 15 years out of fear and money - I was having gum problems last August - I knew I had to go see a dentist but knew I had many cavities and they would want to do more than just help with with my gums.- then One of her videos showed up on my feed. I started her routine and I can not believe what has happened- I only wish I took a before and after picture of my teeth - bleeding gums and cavities - today you would not believe how they repaired naturally - Thank you so much for teaching the truth!!! You have been such a blessing and I encourage everyone - especially us who are terrified of dentists - to start this routine. It doesn’t take long - no more than 5 mins - morning and night.
Ok I’m back! A month later, here’s the update: No plaque build up ever! I wake up with no morning breath but that could be also due to my diet. I have had some receding gums and one of them was in the front and it’s literally slowly growing back to its normal place! I had a sensitivity on one of my back tooth’s but not any more after being consistent with this regiment. I’m so happy with the results!!. I have been struggling with sensitivity and gum recession for a while. It’s not too bad but it worried me for a long time and now thanks to Dr. Ellie i have a better teeth regiment than ever before. I’ll update in 3 months.
Did you experience any sensitivity in the beginning? I am using the program for now 2 weeks and my sensitivity increased. I’m wondering if it is the Zellies …. I really want this system to work. I switched from using Risewell for a few months … my teeth got yellow and thin looking.
Hydrogen peroxide is actually great for receding gum lines. Apparently, fluoride in the toothpaste can cause a receding gum line add peroxide helps heal the gums so they can grow back
For those of you thinking she’s solely trying to sell products: remember that you can get all of the recommended products outside of her. Consider that for a moment.
So you don't think she's making any money off of this "system"? From people clicking on links, from her youtube video's, etc. What she's actually selling is an easy, affordable sure bet to your dental woes, why wouldn't that draw the masses? Her system has completely ruined my mouth for almost 2 weeks. Understandably so when doing a deeper dive into the poisons in the products she's recommending.
I just want to say I've been doing this complete mouth care system for a year. My gums were experiencing heavy recession and sensitivity. I tried this complete mouth care sustem And bought all the items listed and it WORKS my gums are in much better shape that my dentist was shocked!!! And I didn't floss!! Instead I used the interdental picks to get food that was stuck between my teeth but NO FLOSSING my gums were getting irritated because of that. For all those that are skeptical try it!!! It works!!!
Do you do all steps including Listerine? I was wondering since it's acidic and has coloring, that it might stain teeth. Plus it might kill good bacteria together with the bad. I was wondering if skipping Listerine and just using ACT after brushing would get the same results. Also, do you rinse out ACT with water? If you dont rinse out, can it stain teeth since it's green and has food coloring
@@samanthal7051 do not use water to rinse afterwards I spit about 3-4 times after the final application as I have a tendency to be sensitive to dental products, but it does NOT stain your teeth.
I was gifted a dental scaler tool in 1970 and used it every month since then to remove any tartar building on my lower teeth, letting the dental hygienist remove other areas at my six month visits. However, the past three months I have used most of your recommendations, the Listerine, brushing advice, eating xylitol, chewing xylitol gum or eating the xylitol mints, and I have not built up any tartar whatsoever. My scaler still sits in its holder, now just as a souvenir of the past. No more baking soda, no more whitening strips, no more whitening toothpastes. Your system works! Thank you!
@@EverydayPeople-tx3js yes, she says it does! Because by building up a strong enamel covering on your teeth that makes them reflect light naturally which is what gives the white appearance.
It took me about 10 months to get consistent enough with this routine to reverse my dental health. Today for the first time in years my gums did not bleed when i brushed!! I am over the moon.
I started this system right after my dental cleaning where I was told I needed a root canal. I decided to wait and see if this could help repair it. At my next dentist visit the tooth was fine, I honestly forgot about it because it felt fine. 4 of my kids also went to the dentist yesterday and all are cavity free. I am a lifelong believer. Thank you.
Hmm root canal level of damage seems a bit unbelievable to be treatable/repairable at home. As I understand it, for someone to recommend root canal that would mean you have a cavity reaching all the way down to the tooth nerve, and it has been infected. Maybe the infection of the soft tissue inside is gone, but then how would that long hole reaching all the way down be filled without a dentist?
@@mitkoogrozev maybe not the situation here but in my experience I've had rootcanal recomended by some dentists in teeth where there wasn't even any pain and then had super painfull situations saved by another dentist without the root canal treatment where I absolutely expected it. So could also depend if its an actuall necessity or a greedy doctor.
I bought everything in your system including your book! I used to be a daily flosser but my teeth feel better now after just a few weeks. Thanks for sharing preventative care. I did a degree in Health Sciences and it made me depressed how little they talk about preventative care as opposed to treatment.
@@singhmaster4 If you go to my website DrEllie.com there is a free downloadable booklet and more information and links to ensure you get the absolute correct products. One small mistake and this strategy will not work as well...that's why we sell an introduction "kit" to kick off the process. I also have an oral health bootcamp if you want to learn more about how this system works. You may enjoy that too. welcome to the world of preventive oral health :)
@@dr.elliephillips Doctor would you mind to please guide me how and wherec to buy your products, book and the " Kit". And guide the Kik start ?? Please.
I was unable to on one side of my back jaws for around 4-5 years. I was always swollen and tender and biting was impossible. My dentist as the time tried everything and NOTHING worked. Then came Dr Phillips. I watched her video on TH-cam and followed her instructions. It has not been 3 months but the swelling I had around my molar and the pain and sensitivity in my teeth is totally gone. I can eat like a normal person once again. Thank you so much Dr Phillips, your reccommendations worked like magic.
I'm 17 and I'm watching this after having a nightmare about my teeth!! So glad I gave you an hour of my time. I've always been terrible at this stuff, but it'll be a lot easier now that I feel informed and have a routine that's easy to follow. Let's hope my teeth are pretty good when I'm aged! 😘 Thanks.
I went for my 6 month cleaning because I only started your system a couple of weeks ago and I wanted a clean slate to judge how well it worked. Could not believe how much less sensitive my teeth were during the sonar clean, with hardly any ouchies at all. Hygienist said I had much less plaque than last time. Dentist was also impressed. Then they wanted me to explain the new protocol I was following which I did. I think the hygienist is a bit skeptical that 6 months from now I will be plaque free, but I am fully expecting it. Thanks, Dr Ellie, because years of brushing and flossing just didn't work that well.
So happy that you were able to make the move to a new idea. This is very hard for a lot of people who have been brainwashed since they were children to simply "accept" the dogma of dentistry - even crazy ideas that have no scientific backing! If your DDS or RDH is truly interested in "how" your change occurred, my book Mouth Care Comes Clean is a good read for a dental professional. My first book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye can be more difficult (not just because of the title - but it is more a "story" for people to know about the background that created this system). Mouth Care Comes Clean is about biology of the mouth that was discovered in 2007 by the Human Microbiome Project and how this SHOULD have changed the way dentistry is practiced.
@ChauNguyen-fw2hz When you have healthy oral biofilm it is protective of our gum, tooth and mouth tissues. It is a bulletproof film composed of proteins and healthy bacteria designed to coat our entire mouth and protect it from chemical, thermal and biological attacks - especially to protect from the chemistry of foods, temperatures (hot and cold) of drinks and foods and from cavity and gum disease bacteria. Certain products (baking soda, artificial whitening and peroxide) literally dissolve this protective coating off our mouths. Dry mouth will also damage this coating. Long periods of sipping acidic drinks - soda or sports drinks - or for women being pregnant when their saliva pH becomes acidic for 9 months - are all reasons to loose this biofilm protection. Smoking of course will also damage it...which is why smokers have periodontal issues and dry mouth problems..... The key it to rebuild this biofilm. Zellies at the end of meals will alkalize your mouth. Then if you do not eat or drink for 1-2 hours the xylitol will feed the good bacteria and enable them to rebuild this biofilm covering. My Complete Mouth Care System helps rebuild this biofilm covering - working in synergy with xylitol. You need every product in the system - exactly - and in the correct sequence - for this to work. For people who experience "burning" from Listerine - it indicates they have lost this protective covering. The system will rebuild it - and this will take from days to weeks to months - depending on your immune system health and your general speed of healing. If you are an unhealthy smoker who eats a poor diet and is taking many medications - this may take some time. if you are a healthy person who simply had a few bad habits ( whitening teeth or using baking soda paste etc for example) then your turn around time may be a few days. The secret is to only use the Listerine up until it "burns" - and then spit out - and rinse with the ACT. Ensure you have the toothpaste residue on your teeth - just spit out the big glob of toothpaste and let the Listerine wash the rest of the toothpaste off your teeth. Squish the Listerine in and out between your teeth - but only until you fee the "heat" and then spit it out. Time this if you can - and you will see the time it takes to feel "hot" will extend gradually. This is your sign that you are developing healthy biofilm. Do not forget that most of the work is done by xylitol after meals - when your saliva flow is full of proteins after meals. The system is just the icing on the cake......please let me know if this helps explain how to achieve the results you want. Brush lower than the grafts and on the inside areas of your teeth if you are nervous to brush on top of the grafts. You could even use a clean cloth and use your finger to do some gentle massage over the grafts. The massage is to "call" stem cells to the area - to regrow and heal these wounds. if you need more help from me - I have an oral health bootcamp at my website DrEllie.com that you may find useful.
@@dr.elliephillipsHi Dr. Ellie making the transition slowly as I've to order some of the items Abroad like Closys, Act and your Zellies. As of now im back on Listerine and since i left it way back in College and Crest. In the meantime ive taken the habit of Xylitol after every meal etc. I feel all this has made a vast improvement. I just couple it with my tongue cleaner routine. Oil pulling i still practice but on the whole your Routine is my main event mornings and evenings before sleeping. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
I’ve followed Ellie’s system religiously for two months since a dental cleaning. No plaque at all has formed in my mouth. Normally, in the past I’d detect plaque at the back of my lower front teeth within three days.
Thank you Dr. Phillips, you are one of the few honest dentist. It is becoming so difficult to find a dentist who does not want me to pay for their exotic vacations. Preventative maintenance is the most cost effective way to go.
I agree with you. I have also found it impossible to interest dental insurance companies in the idea of promoting home care preventive strategies. This is insane.
@@dr.elliephillips It really is insane since medical insurance companies push preventative medical because they found that, in the long run, it saves them BIG money on costly treatments.
@@LastTrump7 Big and misunderstood topic. Lots of myths. DrEllie.com for my strategies that have worked for many decades to stop, prevent and even reverse cavities and gum disease. Healthy bacteria multiply with my strategies and soon I hope to prove all these fear mongers completely wrong with their misinformation.
This system works!!!! I do not know Dr. Ellie or any of her family and I don't have an ownership in any of the products she recommends. I cannot believe the changes in my gums and teeth. For years, I had a deep pocket in the top of my mouth between two teeth. I could not eat anything, especially salads and meat without food being trapped in that pocket. It was uncomfortable to say the least and I needed to floss that area immediately after eating. I also had a pulsating feeling in that area, sometimes worse than others and I just knew I would have to be pulling one of those teeth sometime soon. I also had gum recession in my lower gums and had a definite brown line below my teeth revealing the recession. Well, guess what? I tried Dr. Ellie's cleaning system, and that pocket has seemed to have closed itself up. No kidding! I don't even have to floss between the top teeth that had the pocket anymore and there is no more pulsing pain. I suppose my gums improved there and helped to close up that pocket. I even have noticed hardly any tartar buildup since I started her system. I decided to cancel my last cleaning. My gums on the bottom teeth that I mentioned, grew also to almost completely cover up that brown line showing. It's hard to believe that Dr. Ellie's system works, but it does! I would suggest you try it and don't give up and you will see the changes in your mouth. I would also like to recommend the Soft, Parodontax complete protection toothbrushes. They are very full, soft and the ergonomic handle doesn't slip easily like most toothbrushes. I get mine at Wal-Mart. They come 2/pack. Can't remember the exact price but I think they're $6ish.
Now one month since using this system. The turn around in my dental health is so dramatic that, even after only four weeks, it’s hard to remember that my mouth was in the poor and deteriorating condition it was in. Main issue was receding gums accompanied by increasing sensitivity, to the point where my teeth felt weak. If I ate anything hard or crunchy, it almost felt like my teeth would break. But after a month on this system all sensitivity is completely gone. My teeth feel incredibly strong. I can crunch on anything and feel not even a hint of sensitivity. My gums are pink. Can’t say any receding gums have restored. But my gums have a different look, like they are more relaxed. My teeth look and feel incredibly clean. My mouth feels and smells so clean. No bad tastes or odors, just the taste of saliva. And my mouth now seems to be producing more saliva. I cannot be more grateful for Dr. Ellie and this system.
@@krandly8 The opposite. Have yet to notice any actual regrowth, but the recession has stopped. Most striking difference was with sensitivity. Was at the point where eating softer foods (like bread, of all things) was hurting my teeth. Now, nothing. Not a hint of pain or sensitivity. Teeth are rock solid; I can crunch hard foods without thinking about it. I’ve been using the system going into five months now and have zero issues. It’s an invaluable investment.
@@kenyaettahboss4240 No loose teeth, but my teeth felt weak. They were starting to break and chip when eating any kind of hard foods - for example, even hard bread crust. At the same time, my gums and teeth were getting super sensitive, which also caused me to avoid eating hard foods. But almost immediately after I started using this system, my teeth strengthened and all sensitivity went away. I’m using the system six months now. I can eat whatever I want without a second thought. Teeth and gums are stronger than ever. Have the sensation that I could bite into a brick and nothing would happen to my teeth. Such a great system. Truly life changing.
I started using Dr.Ellie's dental system after reading her book called "Kiss your dentist goodbye." And that's precisely what it did. I haven't been to a dentist in years and have no dental problems at all, thanks to my daily use of this system. It works. If more people used this effective system, they would be able to keep their teeth and avoid serious teeth and gum problems.
@@user-be5qg7mr1s I find if you do a pull with a teaspoon of granulated xylitol put the xylitol in your mouth rub the granules around all your teeth until it turns to liquid swish it around for as long as you can then spit it out the tartar will start to break up and follow this method good luckxx
Truly an amazing oral routine. I'm 65 years old and can't believe the change in 5 weeks of using Dr. Ellie's system: Zellies, Closys, Crest anticavity, Listerine, and ACT. Tartar is slowly disappearing and teeth are brighter. Thank you, Dr. Ellie, for your brilliant plan!
Dr. Ellie I found you last night, and you made me completely happy. I was told years ago I have gum disease and I dislike those deep so-called cleanings. I bought the cleaning system and can’t wait to start.. God bless you! Your teeth are absolutely amazing with your smile.
Wow - I started following Dr Ellie's protocol with all of the products just over 3 months ago. I had a very sore tooth at the time on my bottom jaw and knew it couldn't be good. The soreness gradually went away and is now completely gone (before if I even touched that area on my face - it hurt!). Teeth are white and tartar is gone (I am a coffee drinker). This woman really knows what she is talking about!! I think she is right that the small amount of flouride in some of the products that is spit out is probably not too bad as it is such a tiny amount. So glad I found this woman!!
Just started this system 2 weeks ago and I’m starting to see a difference already! I’m 80 years old have most of my own teeth. I can see the plaque already diminishing! Will give you updates! Thank you Dr Ellie !
@MaryDurica yes! I do have gum recession especially on my lower front teeth. I can see it beginning to heal already but I do realize it takes time! Thanks for asking! God bless!
@MaryDurica Yes! I follow her system precisely and it’s so easy to do. The Zylitol several times a day is so important as this helps with making your teeth white. Hope this helps and God Bless!
I've used the clo-sys unflavored rinse for years, it was given to me by an old country dentist who gave me emergency treatment for a spirochete infection which was diagnosed on the spot with a culture. Thank you for explaining the chemistry of this product, I now want to use it daily as a prerinse
I'm from Germany and currently learning this for my parents. I'm just glad that someone out there put in a lifetime to research all of this, so I get the condensed information to help my folks. :) Thank you
@@misstakess6495I have been having regular bleeding for 3 months now and using this mouth care system and wondering if it is going to cure the bleeding :(
I started this system about 2 weeks ago, and I am so happy to see how much better my teeth are already. I no longer feel plague on my teeth, sensitivity has already improved and my enamel feels smoother and stronger, gums are looking more full.
My last teeth cleaning left my gums hurt & teeth sensitive for over 3 weeks. Last year both Dentist & Hygienist suggested to rinse with peroxide 2-3 times a week after brushing. I did. The gum recession started accelerate 3 times faster. That was depressing to see. Looking for the answer, I run onto Dr. Ellie’s video. I got the Book, and bought the recommended stuff. Your detail explanations are a plus. I have a hope now! Thank you for being a Real Doctor!
Thank God for you, Dr. Ellie! Two weeks ago, my dentist told me that I had a cavity forming in a tooth that already had a filling, and my only option was to get a root canal or extraction. One of your videos popped up in my TH-cam feed, and I began watching it. Afterwards, I watched many of your videos...my favorite is the one that is an hour long, explaining the mouth care system. I wanted to get started immediately, so I found all the items in your system locally. I was already using another brand of Xylitol, which I enjoy, but after you shared all of this information for free, I just had to buy some Zellies! I have been using your program for just over a week, and I can already see the cavity healling itself! My mouth always feels clean and wonderful, and I look forward to my twice-a-day routine. Thank you so much!
I am *amazed* at how rapidly this process works. I was beginning to have gum issues and tooth sensitivity. Within TWO days of working this process, the sensitivity went away *completely*. I am excited to see the results with my gums as the days tick off! Dr. Ellie, THANK YOU!
Congratulations - this is such great news. This system works best for a “healthy” person as it is stimulating your own mouth to heal itself. But the good news is that this system works for everyone - even people who smoke or have poor digestive health for example. These individuals have more challenges to overcome so they may have to wait a week or two longer for the same results. In almost all cases gums and dental decay will be healed (or substantially improved) within 3- 6 months - so it’s perfect to use this system between dental visits. The only time it won’t work is if someone has a dead tooth. There is no way to bring a dead tooth back to life! Thanks so much for your comment and feedback. Once again I’m so happy you tried this - congratulations!
I love your videos so much Dr. Ellie! I'm almost 60, and in England growing up, we were told such twaddle about oral health. It's a money making business. Never heard oral health explained so concisely, logically and relatable. Thank you so much! I'm going to start this today. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
1. Closys - ultra sensitive for 30 sec-1 min before brushing 2. Crest remineralization tooth paste before cavities - 2 green pea size toothpaste 3. Mouth watchers or Dr plotka Bristle or dense toothbrush/ no electric brushes and brush/ massage the gums 4. Listerine cool mint or original rinse for as long as you can stand it. 5. ACT anticavity 6. Zellies chewies or gums
It’s been three months since I started your 5 step system , my Gingivitis is gone and I didn’t have any plaque deposit on my teeth.Thank you so much dr.Ellie! Your five system works!
Dr. Ellie I will be singing my praises for you to my children and (if Im lucky enough) to my grandchildren aswell! ❤ I just want to share my story - My first pregnancy resulted in 8 big cavities which one of them resulted to a root canal so I was sad and desperate and tried everything that promised to save my teeth including oil pulling, salt rinses, I was recommended going to cleanings every 3months… nothing seemed to help. Then I stumbled on xylitol and boy did just that one thing helped to turn around my oral health. I chewed xylitol gums everyday after every meal. I made a habit out of it. Then to top it I discovered your videos so I introduced your system to my regime. Yesterday I got back from the dentist for my yearly appointment and they did some x-rays and my dentist just said that it looks more than good on the scans and Ive got ZERO new cavities. My teeth look shiny and white, my gums are pink and I couldnt be more happy. Thank you for being such an amazing human being and teaching us to care for our oral health ❤
@@gwenodom7320 Honestly, I have had such success, and read so many, many similar stories here that I want to purchase the products and send them from the US to the rest of the world just as a courtesy! I saw that some of the products are available from Amazon in Italy where I'll be for a month soon, so I may ship a box to myself in Rome. Listerine is very available in stores and pharmacies, but the other products are trickier to find and still heavy for a suitcase. I think one or two products might be found on Amazon Italy.
I must thank Dr Ellie. Ive been trying to save my teeth for years. My partner and daughter both have different dental issues. I got the products for us for Christmas . Today is New Years Day. We have all had transformative dental experiences in the last week. This works. Thank you Dr Ellie!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
FYI, my gum was never pink. But now, their getting pink. I am so happy. Keep providing this great information. I was too scared to go to the dentist because my health got worse. So it's been 1 decade that I haven't visited the dentist because of my health getting worst. So, thank you for this information. I have to admit that I used your complete program however some times I used it once a day. However now I'm on track. I now use it 2x a day and regardless I do see results and I'm so happy. I'm definitely trusting you. Thank you! 😂
Hi Doctor. I started using your routine religiously and in a few weeks I saw improvements in my saliva. I was getting this gross brown film on my teeth when slept despite conventional brushing. I was becoming self conscious about it. Anyway, now I’m using the Closys, Listerine, Crest anti cavity and Act and the film has completely stopped forming on my teeth. My gums are less red and look much smoother. They no longer bleed when I brush. Dentists would only recommend deep cleaning. I got one and they wanted me to do another 12 months later. Nothing was improving because it was their only suggestion. Now my mouth is doing better and I will continue for 3-6 months with the complete mouthcare system and Zellies. Thank you.
I've put all your recommended items in my Amazon cart while I watched the video so I know they are the exact items to start my new oral regimen, thank you for your hard work and most of all thank you for sharing this information with us, I doubted I'd be able to keep my teeth for my entire life but because of you and your videos I feel like I stand a chance.
I would highly recommend adding sleeping with mouth tape if you have a tendency to wake up with dry mouth. Mouth taping greatly improved my dental health.
I have a tip for the timers. Smart phones have a clock app that you can customize and add timers. I added ones for each step, and it makes it so easy to follow. Thank you so much! I started this a few weeks ago and noticed changes right away. Now I love brushing my teeth and look forward to it. It doesn't take long at all.
Been doing this for a week now, and wow! I never felt my mouth so clean in the morning when I wake up. I slipped my scheduled cleaning and plan to go back to my dentist after a month to see what he has to say. My teeth feel so much stronger and brighter in just a week of using this system. I shared it with my husband and son too coz its such a blessing I can’t just keep it to myself. Thank you Dr. Ellie ❤️
Hi Dr. Ellie! I have been using your wonderful system since 2012, when I was at my wits end with my teeth. I was on a forum, and someone mentioned your book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye. I got it from the library and immediately started your Complete Mouth Care System. IT WORKS. The only time I run into problems is when I get a bit cavalier and try other dental products. It always causes irritation. I jump right back to your system, and all is well! Thank you for all of your expertise!
Thanks for sharing! So glad to hear from you. Congratulations on your success! Yes, avoiding all the current marketing and the scandalous wrong information on the Internet is often a challenge! I am here to help you stay on course if you ever need extra help 😁
I love you. I love you so much. I have thought that my dentists were nuts for a while. They say, "floss more" and I do and it irritates my gums. They say "get a water jet", I do and it's ok but not the best. They clean my teeth twice a year and my teeth are getting worse. I went 10 years without seeing a dentist and my teeth (and gums) were not this bad. I tell them this and they say, "well you should really get your teeth cleaned 3 times a year". But somehow I went more than 10 years and my pockets remained the same, then I come under dentist care and in 2 years my pockets get so bad that I need a "flap" or "LANAP". That's when I came to TH-cam searching for other options. I will come back after I have tried your methods.
Currently in a financial rut as my parents moved around half a year ago. Last time i went to the dentist i had a cavity they wanted to get filled. I pass out getting shots, so imagine the fear of knowing it's literally within half a foot of my eyes. I cant begin this entire process all at once, so ill be building up step by step. My local kroger carries at least half of whats recommended here. Cant wait to start. I'm sad i neglected oral care as long as i have, but better late than never. Im glad such educational content is freely available online
I’m not a religious person but have used your have system and been GLAD that my teeth are now stronger in checkups. The dentist can’t make me feel pain and then suggest i need work done. That is a tangible benefit, achieved through evidence and scientific knowledge 💋 your dentist goodbye, it feels POWERFUL. ❤ your accent Ellie, i can hear varietals, im hearing a blend which gives you a well-rounded and resounding note of “wisdom gathered through travel” /wine reviewer
You are very kind. I've certainly had a multitude of experiences and opportunities - many delightful - and some a little more difficult! Today I delight in "meeting" people through TH-cam and having a moment to interact like this. Thank you for your generous comments. It is my pleasure to share what I know in the hope it will empower individuals to understand their oral health and avoid unnecessary treatments. 😊
@@dr.elliephillips you are welcome. It’s time and energy consuming to release material like you have, and be revising it as your research grows. IE your theory of how relative levels of exposure to flouride are substantial or not. The caveat is that for kidney and other disease for instance, reasonable amounts are excessive. Some countries have water systems so fluoridated that it is more than enough simply through water in product and from the tap (faucet, if you will) or ground supply. I respect you enormously that you have stuck your head above the parapet and are now exposed to a range of reactions from people, some who have complicated dental environment which might not respond quickly!
So far, so good. As of a week in, I have a much healthier mouth. My teeth feel more slippery, and it doesn't dry out as bad. My gums stopped bleeding. And I can taste my food better. I've been following the steps to a Tee and will continue to do so! Thank you so much!!! ❤
I am also starting to see my tongue is much more pink, and it seems like my gums are growing back in the spaces in between my teeth. Im really happy I found this mouth care system. 🪥❤️
I can vouch for the Xylitol and Act Restoring. Using just those two I turned my teeth and gums around dramatically. I used the blue Act Restoring 0.05% Sodium Fluoride. Still use it. I believe this lady. And I don't believe people easily. But I know that I had DRAMATIC success using two of the products she recommends. Also, she is incredibly smart and has had a passion for achieving ideal oral health for a long time. Care, combined with intellect, combined with practice is true, holistic intelligence- that's something not a lot of people possess and it can't be faked. At least not around me. I'm looking forward to trying this system. There's not a doubt in my mind about it. I'll be back in six months with an update.
47:40 I have a video topic for you! Those of us who are neurodivergent (adhd, autism) often struggle to brush for many various reasons. What you say here about teens who don’t brush made me think “a minimal care” video for people with not enough “spoons” for dental hygiene would be very popular. (For people with depression and CFS, too!) Not being able to keep up with oral hygiene affects people’s mood, self confidence, etc. This education would be so appreciated by these communities! Thank you for everything!
Wow, I had not realized this. I am ADHD and struggling with Lyme disease and I have this issue. Lyme affects the mouth and can play havoc on your teeth.Thank you for bringing gong this up.
At some point in the video she mentioned “if your teenager won’t follow the system” to at least have them use the ACT mouthwash and Zelle’s after meals as well as brushing method/ toothpaste. I struggle with adhd and depression and felt overwhelmed by this video but after watching it a few times and letting myself build up to it I feel confidence in following the system
Minimal care would be you using an electric toothbrush and no toothpaste and some mouthwash made out of peppermint and a pinch of baking soda. You make your bathroom the most glorious place in the world so you want to hang out in there. You color things orange so they tell your subconscious to do it.
Hey thank you for mentioning people with Cfs and ADHD! I am sometimes too exhausted to take care of myself like I should! You are very considerate! Also have you ever tried oil pulling? Look it up, I was actually homeless and I went to the dentist and he told me I have the healthiest gums he has ever seen because I began brushing with coconut oil and baking soda and also oil pulling (swishing oil in the mouth for 10 or 20 minutes). Thank you!
I am so grateful to have come across this video. This video was very informative in a very easy to understand manner that made complete sense. And as many people cannot afford dental visits or treatment, this information is vital to keeping our teeth healthy without huge financial sacrifices or costs. Thank you Dr. Ellie Phillips for sharing your knowledge and experience to help humanity be able to properly care for our oral health which is very important to our overall health. Looking forward to starting your complete system. From Ontario, Canada 👍
Im new this year to Dr. Ellie Phillips mouth care routine...45 days later, im sensodyne free and almost all of my painful spots have vanished. Im happy to have this routine/knowledge and in my 50's im able to work towards keep all of my natural teeth as i get older. Thank you Dr. Ellie Phillips ❤
@@shishirasma5593 so far i can now brush my teeth/gums all over my mouth, as b4 I needed Sensidine toothpaste or I couldn't even without horrible pain. Seems the pockets in my gums are healing and healthier for sure, its really amazing. Can't wait till I go back to my dentist and see the difference, hopefully by then ill have even more positive changes. Only sensitivity I feel occasionally is if I eat something cold and then hot food back to back. Also my teeth look brighter and feel great. ..highly recommend her system.
@Dr.ElliePhillips I started brushing the way you recommended last week with crest cavity protection, Listerine original and flossing with the toothpaste still in my mouth because that's all I had at the time. I bought the system (products) yesterday. I did my first treatment last night and my mouth feels AMAZING!!!!!🥰🥰🥰 IT IS a spa treatment for your mouth. ❤❤❤😁😁😁🥳🥳🥳 I didn't brush my tongue but I did floss. I also redid the last 2 steps because I rinsed my mouth out with water which I will no longer do. This morning, I had NO morning breath. My mouth feels so good. My teeth already has that diamond sparkle, they are already starting to whiten and my gums look healthier since starting your brushing method last week. 😍🤩 It has even helped my stomache issues that were causing sour tongue and breath odor.💃💃 I am soooooo grateful to you for sharing this information. 💛💛💛🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾 I'm even more grateful to God for the video showing up in my recommended watch category. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I cannot thank you enough!!! God bless you and continue sharing your knowledge.
Do you live in the United States? Here it is very easy to get the products I recommend - most of them are in Walmart - or you can get through Amazon. Just be sure to get the exact products. I have a free downloadable booklet on my website at DrEllie.com There are links to the products there. Begin with xylitol at the end of meals - either Zellies mints or you can use granular ( which is less expensive but I don't sell - so you will have to go to a health store or Amazon to find). Get the correct Crest paste ( $1.95) and start there - using the paste twice a day. It works in synergy with the xylitol. You can start this program like this if necessary and see improvements - if you stop eating and drinking between meals and always clean your gums and teeth before sleeping at night. Even have a little xylitol after cleaning your teeth....let a few crystals dissolve on your tongue.....just see the difference this will make :)
I have been doing this program for a month and I had an issue around a crown with root canal and even after a month my teeth are definitely looking whiter and the gum around the crown has resolved. I'm so happy with my teeth and gums! You're amazing Dr Ellie!
I have had gingivitis and periodontal disease for 25+ years--and this is despite taking great care of my teeth. I have had painful periodontal surgeries to stop & repair the damage caused by pathogens. X-rays show the extensive loss of bone from the chronic infection--very discouraging. The surgeries have stopped the damage, as has the use of a Braun Oral-B toothbrush (which has been critical to my recovery). Yet my dental health is still below what I want. I am always on the brink of another periodontal crisis. Again, I do everything that my dentist recommends. I am going to try this complete oral system. I am ready to try something different.
@@BrandieKae I am worried because I am changing my normal routine. It has worked for me since my recovery. It does not achieve perfect health, but it at least stops the decline and keeps me at an ok level of health. In 3 months, I will see my hygienist again. I sure hope that my condition is not horrible.
@tiffanycoles828 well I have been doing this for about 10 days now and I can testify that I have less tooth pain and my teeth feel really clean. The gums are still healing but look a little better. I will keep going 💪
I'm litterally about to cry reading some of these comments. I just started a journey with my dentist through a gum infection and I have receding gums, a black triangle between my lower feont teeth, and a few deeper pockets. I have very crowded teeth and have been considering braces for that. I have to clear up the infection first. I just got through one of your other videos and I'm just now only 6 minutes into this one for the first time and I already have such a good outlook for this healing process!! I'm going to get through this video and see if I can save my mouth health! I am determined too! I feel as though I can trust you and that you have the best in mind for the people you are trying to help! Thank you so much!!
This video just popped up I thank God for her. I had a bad tooth sending pains to the temple area and top of my head i went to the store and got the products. After the 1st application I feel alot better ...I will come back in a few months with a update. This lady knows what she doing. Thank you Doctor Ellie God bless you and your family. I will get the kit later to support her website plus i need the zellies and her book. I went to the store because I was in so much pain and I want to start gum care immediately 😊
Thank you so much for this video! My husband is super stressed about the health of his teeth/mouth. We’re both going to try this system and see how it goes! I love the way you explain everything. You are so sweet and genuine! Please make a video on what kind of care/products you recommend for children under 7!!!❤ I have two toddlers and want to start teaching them good habits with oral care ASAP 😁🥰
You are so amazing for doing this! Thank goodness we finally have someone like you! So grateful and can’t wait to try! Will definitely check in to let everyone know how it worked for me! Thank you for all your work! We need more people like you!
When Dr Ellie mentions the protective biofilm being removed at cleanings... i specifically remember when I was in high school. I went for my regular cleaning, after she cleaned my teeth, I felt like my bottom permanent retainer area was fuzzy and rough feeling the next day and onwards. Crazy that as a kid, I asked myself in my head, "What did that hygienist do to my teeth?!" They felt so slick and clean BEFORE, and it was noticeably different for months after I left that office. Wow.
Yes! I find I become immeasurably fitter by watching workout videos, especially the Pilates ones. I think it’s the cringing I do with those because they look hard! Seriously, I think this doctor’s system is sound. I watched the video twice to get all my questions answered, then did some research. So far the system is working for me.
Thank you Ellie for this thorough video and for also mentioning the certain ingredients in the products that are undesirable but not a major concern. I have been a label reader for many years and was hesitant with the products when I started this almost 2 weeks ago. But after this updated video, you've eased my fears about the coloring, fluoride, etc. The benefits are so well worth it. I was worried about my receding gum line, that's how I stumbled upon your video. I used to floss every night for years. I stopped flossing when I learned in another video of yours that it can damage the gums. Your system makes complete and total sense to me. And it so easy and quick. I love how clean my teeth feel now. Also my teeth are much whiter. I've always had stains from tea, etc. I had a dentist appointment coming up in 2 weeks but postponed it today until March. I am excited to test this and see if my gum line improves. When I go for my check up I will probably ask them not to do the cleaning. At the dentist, scraping the tarter off my teeth was the worst. I am thinking I won't have to endure that anymore. Thank you very much!!!
I've been trying this system for about a month now and have similar results to you. My gums have a little receding and am excited to see if they stop at my next dental visit! My teeth are so smooth and clean all day!
I’ve been doing the system just two weeks, but my oral health, which had been declining similarly to what you described about yours, has done a complete turn around. I had done everything else to maintain healthy teeth and gums, and nothing stopped the steady and discouraging decline. But Dr. Ellie’s system produced immediate results. Now I feel like I finally have a handle on the situation and that my oral health is finally improving.
This is one of the most amazing finds I've had on TH-cam. I'm starting this immediately and already telling everyone I know about this. Thank you and God bless you!
After watching this I realized using the listerine and people with plaque build up and heart disease. Using listerine kills the strep which is what makes the danger in heart disease and dental hygiene. It's make sense. I don't like to floss just because it takes time. I go to get my teeth cleaned once every 3 years while the rest of the family does it every 6 months. The dentist never seems to have issues with my teeth. Yet my husband teases me that I don't take care of my teeth. I don't have plaque build up. He has horrible receding gum line because he brushes to hard and to long. Every six months he has an appointment an dthey tell him he has pockets. I don't. I am so glad I watched this.
Wow! I cannot believe your age! When you mentioned 60s I became fascinated by how young you look and by your energy! Thank you for the video Dr. Phillips.
Thank you for being so detailed, thorough and specific Dr Ellie. I have always felt that a dentist should be capable of telling me what to do to better care for my teeth but somehow the conversation always ended up with me spending more money and returning more often. I don't believe they all are indifferent, but it is a fact that the industry depends on our ignorance and lethargy.
@@CharlotteFairchild Use my Complete Mouth Care System twice daily and xylitol after every meal. Try not to eat or drink for 1-2 hours after meals so that the xylitol can feed the good bacteria in your mouth. For a free downloadable booklet with all the details drEllie.com. Thank you :)
Dr Ellie is there any other brands of xylitol that is equal or as good as the zellies that i could buy in the store or if i cant order the zellies would xylitol sweetner work from xylo sweet ? @@dr.elliephillips
Oh my Dr. Ellie, before I started your complete system about a month ago, I had a front tooth that was showing decay. I was going to go to a Dentist, but I saw your video and thought seriously about the things you talked about. My decaying tooth is reversing and I am extremely happy. I am so sure that in a few months, the tooth will completely reverse. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
@@gratitudetouniverse3754 The front tooth has very little brown decay now. The remainder of the tooth looks polished. I look forward to seeing all of the tooth polished.
Started your system a week ago, no plaque! My teeth are smooth, clean, and much whiter. Never really thought too much about tooth brush cleanliness, now soak in Listerine after use and dry. Thank you,Thank you, Thank you for bringing your system to the public.
Ok. I just brushed my teeth the way she said, massaging your gums , and already my teeth feel cleaner than they've ever been. I don't know how, 'cause that doesn't make sense to me, but I am already smiling more just from one time. Believe it or don't. I can hardly believe it myself!
Ma'am. I'm so thankful to God to have come across this. I was wondering how I can brush how I do and still feel plaque. Thus system not only helped that but they're whiter! No whitening strips! Also my family is getting on board because I can't stop talking about it! God bless you❤❤❤
My 23 year old daughter with cerebral palsy can’t rinse and spit. I brush her teeth and give her xylitol gum but still worry about the strength of her teeth. She grinds them throughout the day. I am anxious to see your upcoming video on children and hope it might apply to my daughter
Dr. Ellie! I love you!! I've been using your system since August 1st and I'm already seeing a difference and getting compliments. I always say, "It's Dr. Ellie Phillips! Follow her!!"
I've been dreading a fourth extraction and implant. I have a tooth that is bleeding and painful. I started the complete mouth care system on 12/19/2023. In 1 week, the bleeding and pain stopped. It's now 2 weeks 01/07/24 and pain/bleeding is still gone! So far, I'm impressed with this and can't wait to see the results in 6 months! I use the children's/youth size toothbrush Dr. Ellie recommends, it's simply easier to massage with and brush each individual tooth.
This is a great video. Thank you! I love you Dr. Ellie! I found your channel about 6 weeks ago and your advice intrigued me. So 4 weeks ago I received my first order of Zellie's Dental Gum. I've been doing your recommended routine for 4 weeks and found it very easy to change my habits and follow your system. Today I put on my glasses so I can see and looked at my teeth in the mirror. I didn't expect to see such a dramatic improvement in just a short time but all my teeth and gums looks so much better. My mouth feels fresh all day, night and waking in the morning. I was one of those people that no matter how much I brushed and flossed, every time I saw the dentist there was another cavity or crown or root canal. I spent many thousands of dollars trying to keep up. I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong as I did everything my dentist recommended for that last 50 years. Now I look forward to my next dental exam just to see what my dentist will say, but I think I will refuse the cleaning. Just maybe I won't need it. If only I had found you Dr. Ellie 50 years ago!
Dr. Ellie, you have made such a positive change in my dental health with your system. I started your system one year ago and gave it my full attention. I had pockets up to 6. I didn't share the information with my dental team. My dental hygienist was amazed at the changes and worked with me to point out areas I need to focus on. I told her about the plaque rinse and she was very positive. My pockets have reduced and I have one at 4 mm. I have minor bleeding in one tooth. I also feel my mouth is cleaner. My praise for you and this system. Thank you so much.🙏
Do you skip any steps in her systems like Listerine? Since it's 1. acidic, 2.might kill good bacteria along with the bad, 3. might stain teeth since it has coloring (i never understood why mouthwashes have coloring). I heard some dentists say Listerine is bad for teeth. I understand all steps in her system except Listerine
@@samanthal7051 I don't skip any steps. Original Listerine is harsh so I switch it with the Cool Mint . I haven't had any staining. This system creates more good bacteria to help reduce the bad bacteria.
I worked in dentistry USA for many years. They unnecessarily pulled teeth and did lots of root canals. I had many teeth taken out. Later I told a different dentist about the tests they used in the clinic, which shocked her. The dentist was burning teeth with redhot metal rod to cause pain, then saying pain meant they had to have root canal. His aim was to make over $1500 a day. My mouth is ruined by working for him. I was born well after sealants and xylitol were discovered, it was Never Ever recommended to me as a kid. I never had prevention. I need about 4 more implants at this point and probably fillings and veneers too. I believe my first filling at 10 years old was not even real. Its all profit motivated in USA. Its just a hard thing to realize.
bitty_bytes001 - you have my heartfelt condolences, you trusted a dentist whom you worked for which is normal. If I were you, I’d still do this protocol as it is focussed on creating a healthy mouth biofilm … which is never a bad thing. Right? You still have some of your natural teeth to protect and now been given the means to do so? Many blessings to you and again … sorry to hear of such a horrible experience. ✨🕊️✨
@@doracotterell2863 Hi Dora, Yes, I already purchased all the things she mentioned and started the protocol. Yes I have some teeth. I'm missing lower right side and had a jaw infection due to an encapsulated infection after botched cavity filling. Had a bone graft after that. I have tried many dentists in NY, PA and CT they just keep disappointing me. I want to go to Europe instead. My childhood dentist although very nice, never did anything preventative. I am not that old, I should have my teeth. It is insane. My upper left side is all missing too. I chew on a premolar mostly which is not good. Yes, I also take calcium supplements specific for bone and teeth. Doing what I can. Thanks so much for the encouragement!
Sorry you had such a rotten experience with your teeth and with that crook of a dentist. I don't think he's at all representative of dentists in USA though, fortunately. I've had 5-6 dentists in different parts of the US over years and they were all decent to exceptional people. One of the big problems in healthcare, apparently including dentistry too, became more apparent during the past 3 years - the regulatory bodies, medical advisory bodies, medical journals where studies of what (allegedly) works/doesn't work are highlighted, and the professional organizations have mostly been captured - so can't be automatically trusted any more. Big pharma owns and controls most of them, thus it's hard for even sound protocols to change the standards of practice when doctors and dentists are (purposely) misled by the journals, etc. So, it's best to take nothing on blind faith these days and when something plausiblly effective and low/no risk and cheap comes along from what seems like a very credible source, try it for yourself. Hope this system helps you!
I’ve just watched the receding gum video and I’m so excited to have found you- I’ve been doing my own dig on tooth related care and you are the missing link! I’ve had questions that I know mainstream dentists aren’t going to answer- so glad to have found you and can’t wait to try and get started on this and teach my kids! I’m done with the rake you in by the wallet dentists. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank you for stepping out and teaching us what I had been pondering- which is there is a better way to care for teeth so that teeth can cdo what they were designed to do!!
Thank you so much for this. I have flossed and brushed so much my teeth and gums are suffering. Something I rarely hear anyone talk about is how we use too much pressure when we brush. I have been following your protocal for 3 days and I definitely see and feel a difference. I will be spreading the word. XXXXXXXXXXXXX
Thank you for this wonderful education Dr Ellie! I came across you quite by mistake - how fortunate for me😂 I've had a few dental issues, and already use dentures at age 47 - I've lost too many teeth!🤭 You've taught me a lot in 2 short videos! I even called my last 4 children in to watch along with me! Thank you!!❤
Just bought the system. Had a deep cleaning today from the dentist. Lots of plaque build up. Now that all that has been removed, I am now going to try this system and see how things go. I Just did the whole system for the 1st time tonight. Mouth is feeling quite regreshing! Most refreshing on quite sometime! 🤞
Before I spend an hour watching this, do you have to buy a book or buy the system or anything or does she tell you exactly what you need and you can go out, buy the necessary products and start doing it straight away?
Thank you so much for the detailed instructions. I have dental cleaning twice a year faithfully. Regardless I have big pockets around several teeth and lots of tartar build up. I was always told how I wasn't flossing properly. Your mouth care system seems to make more sense, I will definitely give it a try!
After researching veneers, and teeth whitening, I’m SO GLAD I found your channel! I just bought purple crest (I know). After watching the complete video, I am feeling so guilty to have to use that. I can’t wait to run to the store to start the complete mouth care system. I read all the positive comments. This is how healthcare should be! Can’t wait to binge watch every video. ❤❤❤ PS I no longer want veneers! I prefer to maintain my own teeth and make them stronger vs hiding potential problems with a tooth covering!
Ok, I’m back! So one week of following Dr. Ellies complete care system, my teeth have never been so clean! I wake up and there’s no plaque build up. Through out the day, there’s no plaque build up. Taking a xylitol mint is a game changer! If you don’t have zellies, an apple or an avocado like Dr. Ellie recommends at the end of your meals works well too I found. And! My teeth are way more whiter than using whitening toothpaste. I’m really impressed. This is definitely a game changer when it comes to dental health. Some things I’ll be better at: is trying out the tooth brushes she recommended. I’m using up toothbrushes I have now and then when I’m done with those, I’ll be moving up to the ones recommended. I’ll also keep In mind about the buying cheap tooth brushes during travels and then getting fresh ones when you’re not traveling (I do have a trip coming up). Also I want to be better at not drinking anything an hour or two after you take a Zellie or after you brush your teeth to let the saliva do its Magic. I do weight training so when I’m a the gym, I guzzle a gallon of water. Is there any recommendations for weight trainers/gym goers when it comes to water and meals and teeth? I’ll update in a month!
Dr. Ellie's system really does work. I started it several months ago and overall my teeth and gums are healing and there is improvement. Thank you Dr. Ellie. ❤
That is incredible and I’m very happy for you! It give me so much hope. I’ve been having receding gums and i want to regrow them. I haven’t realized until I started listening to Dr. Ellie (and therefore changing my dental routine )that there’s so much of my dental health and overall health I’ve been needing to change because it’s been damaging my biofilm. So let’s do this!
Thanks for mentioning chemo! Just discovered your clips and so glad I did. My oral health has been good over the years. I had 13 months of infusions including 3 types of chemotherapies and 2 monoclonal antibodies for estrogen fueled cancer 2019 to 2020 at 47 yo. So far teeth are doing ok but concerned about long term dental health so implementing right away!
That’s great. Over many years I have heard from people undergoing chemo and radiation treatment - saying how much the system has helped - particularly to protect their mouths from mucositis and other problems.
I been on the system for 6 weeks- downloaded brochure and bought newest book. Sensitivity was gone in days, less bleeding in days, gums look healthier and teeth feel tight! I am going to dentist in a few weeks to get a benchmark
How is your bleeding now? Stopped? I have been nearly two weeks on this program, however one spot in the mouth which occasionally bled, bleeds every night. I hope it’ll stop soon. I get encouragement from others.
Thanks for the extra tips about teenager challenges, gag reflex challenges, and other oral health compliance challenges. I am personally aware of folks with autism issues that make oral health more difficult to address than neurotypical people experience. Figuring out how to pick your battles is a never-ending dilemma.
@@dr.elliephillipsI love your videos and have learned a great deal of information! Bless you! I’ve been using xylitol After the last step using ACT.. Is this okay? Many thanks in advance Doc 🌹
I fractured my jaw as well as a few teeth in a motorcycle accident and my dentist told me I would need surgery and implants to fix it. I started Dr. Ellie’s routine and my jaw miraculously healed! No surgery needed! And a tooth I lost 10 years ago in a separate accident grew back as well! What a bonus!
Thank you so much for this video!!! It explained all my questions and makes a lot of sense. So happy you have all the years of study and experimenting, and are sharing it with all of us. So GRATEFUL!!!
I noticed I was avoiding brushing my teeth and part of it was because when I spit out there would be blood. I had very sensitive teeth as well. Also if I flossed it was even my it actually was uncomfortable. I came across one of your videos and I purchase the items. I also bought your book and read it. About 3 weeks into using your system just once a day and I no longer have any blood that spits out or any discomfort. I do not floss. And I'm fully aware that you recommend twice a day. I talk for a living and my mouth gets to dry for me to give very much time at all in which I'm not drinking something. But my teeth feel so much better. My mouth feels so much better when I wake up. I agree it would be better to do it twice a day. But I am getting better and I am grateful for the information you provided.
It is really important to do the system before you sleep at night. Maybe forget your childhood when perhaps there was a demand to "go brush your teeth"..... This is not the same. Things are different now! My system is nurturing for teeth - it is like a delicious spa treatment for them ..they yearn for this treatment. Maybe consider your teeth as your friends - waiting for you to comfort and nurture them. It is just a few minutes and you will see how they respond to this love and care :) Congratulations - I'm so happy you found this information and I am ready to coach and support you!
@@dr.elliephillipsif I suspect I have cavities will I need to have them filled or will this system help heal cavities naturally? I suspect that I have them. Along with periodantal disease. I went to the dentist to try and have them cleaned but they said they couldn't do it at the regular office and wanted to refer me to a specialist. But I have a phobia of doctors and just going to ask about the cleaning was SO hard to do in the first place. It was so discouraging to be told I have to go to another new place and go through it all over again 😢. Should I go to the specialist or will your system help me? It seems that it should help heal the gum disease but what about cavities?
ordered all my stuff. going to try this. ty for the video. EDIT: I posted this original comment 13 days ago. Here I am on a friday night coming back to tell you guys that this system seems to be working. I came here looking for answers because after years of untreated bruxism, acid reflux & horrible diet, my teeth have started to show wear & tear. One of my teeth has a chip in it now, and that has been incredibly stressful for me. I've been using Dr Ellie's system exactly as she teaches it here in this video. This includes the closys mouth bath, brushing with the toothbrushes and toothpaste she recommends starting from inner-back of the mouth to the front along the gumline, the yellow listerine and the ACT mouthwash. Also eating Zellie's after every meal (even after brushing at night b4 bed if Im hungry lol). My teeth are overall whiter, more opaque, the brownish plaque that was building up in between some of the teeth is disappearing, and my teeth feel stronger and are less sensitive to heat/cold. I can't undo the chip in the tooth (for now - hopefully i can get insurance to help me sort it out), but it's really helped my mental health to know that I'm doing all that I can do to fix the issue for now.
1. Xylitol after meals
2. Closys Ultra Sensitive mouth rinse before brushing. Half of what the bottle recommends to use.
Use for ONLY one minute.
3. Resilient dense tooth brush with good brissels.
4. Crest cavity prevention tooth paste.
5. Start brushing by brushing on the inside of teeth on bottom, massage gums.
If going to floss, do it right after brushing with toothpaste still on the teeth.
6. Let toothbrush dry for 24 hours before uses.
7. Rinse with Listerine cool mint or original. Original is tiny bit more powerful.
Always use full strength.
Rinse as long as you can stand it, even if only for s second.
8. Rinse with Act mouthwash zero alcohol Anti-cavity. Purchase smaller bottles, not larger. Larger have more water in them than the smaller bottles.
Best to rinse for a minute.
Thank you!!! 😊❤
You're a star 🌟
Thank you!
after toothpaste do we rinse with water?& spit toothpaste?
or with listerine
Many thanks,my problem IS it's difficult to find act mouthwash in France,IS there a substitute?
@@nellyfleury9019 Same in Brazil. I would like to know too.
I saw this video about 2.5 weeks ago. I have really bad tarter build up and plaque. I am 72 years old, and have a lot of gum recession and bone loss. After you explained exactly what to do, I bought the products you recommended and started a twice a day regimen. Shortly, a few days later my teeth started to feel extremely smooth and “nice”. Just like they have always felt after a cleaning. I had just started a 4 month recall for cleanings because my mouth was such disaster 4 months ago. My pockets were deep and when the hygienist cleaned my teeth I had a lot of bleeding and sensitivity. So, I know you do not recommend teeth cleaning, but I had this scheduled and just wanted to see if my 2.5 weeks on this plan made any real difference. Well, to my excitement, my hygienist couldn’t get over the improvement and wanted to know everything I’ve been doing. I told her, but I didn’t really tell her it had only been 2.5 weeks. She said keep doing this. She said I had no bleeding, my plaque was non-existent! I actually didn’t tell her I had not flossed for 2.5 weeks either, but I intend to. All I can say is THANK you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve never had “good” teeth, my moth is full of crowns and recession, but I finally feel like I am doing the right thing and it really showed up so quickly. Everyone should do your Complete Mouth Care System twice a day and see the difference! ( and don’t wait until your 72)!!
Same for me!
@SueHagen1. You used the complete system, including Listerine, twice a day? I’ve been following the system 1x/day for the last few weeks but think it may be beneficial to use it 2x/day since I have a history of pockets. Thanks
@@nickt.7305 Last thing before sleeping is essential and ideally about 12 hours later - at some time during the day is the best time for that x2 daily use of this system. Don't forget the Zellis/xylitol after meals and try to not eat or drink for at least an hour or two afterward. The reason for x2 is that immature (baby) plaque bacteria grow into longer more challenging plaque bacteria within 12 hours. You want to take care of them before they make this change.
Check out this video - it shows plaque growing on celan teeth. Watch at the start of the video (16 hours after cleaning teeth) and then toward the end of the video ( 22+ hours) and you will probably decide that using my system twice a day is worthwhile :) th-cam.com/video/q26YhisTg7U/w-d-xo.html
Hello r. Phillips,
You really are an angel for sharing this amazing protocol you developed.
I'm just wondering though, did you mean not to eat or drink anything two hours after the mints-gum chewing, or the mouthwash?
I was told that Listering was not good for you because of the amount of alcohol in it.
This is what the internet is for; my dentist would have never told me this.
I'm absolutely amazed how the Crest alone is doing compared to newer formulas I have been using. Love the explanation it all checks out logcially. Waiting on a my full tubes of Crest and the Closys to arrive but so far I've learned more about how to brush and maintain my mouth here than anywhere else. #1 Tooth decay food; High fructose corn syrup carbonated drinks in combination with bleached white flour pizzas, especially ones with a dense crust. My mouth looks like the moon after years on that junk.
My dentist never shares any of this information 🥺
Smart man, he doesn't want to lose a paying customer. You also now understand why he always gives you a lollipop after every cleaning!
Exactly..
@@Bawkrhi, dentist here. Your dentist doesn’t tell you this because this is not what they studied. And even if I study this, what sounds like good information I cannot practice this in my clinic as we are supposed to follow “evidence based dentistry” according to NHS England. This is done so if and when we are taken to court (more people love to do this than you can imagine) we have something to back us up. Maybe if I am working in India my hometown I can wholeheartedly put this into my practice with patients.. so no point blaming dentists really. This lady here is very passionate and I respect her for the difference she’s making but it’s not all common sense in our world.
I made this note for myself & hubby... so thought it would be useful for someone.
CLEANING TEETH
WHEN?
- 1. Right before you go to sleep. No eating drinking after.
- 2. Time when you know you won’t eat/drink for another hour. (Great if there can be under 12 hours between the cleans.
HOW TO CLEAN?
1. Begin with mouthwash CloSYS - FOR 1 MINUTE ONLY! Tiny sherry glass amount. Bathe from side to side... tip head forward/sideways so all the difficult areas are ‘bathed’... no need to squish or flush, it will run down where it needs to as you bathe the teeth fully. (If ‘pockets’... bathe gently and mouth will do the work - don’t follow instructions on bottle, follow Dr Ellie.). Then spit out.
2. Wet toothbrush, add 2 peas of toothpaste then small circles on the gums where root is. (If you decide you have to floss use it at this stage so it drags the toothpaste through the gaps in the teeth.
3. Wash your toothbrush and stand up so it dries well!
4. Spit out the blob of toothpaste (don’t wash off with water).
5. Now rinse with Listerine Cool Mint (or Original which is a tiny bit more powerful) only: If too sensitive, rinse for long as you can stand it, don’t dilute it even if you can only stand it for a second! If it starts burning spit it out (you will build up tolerance and be able to rinse longer as you go on to 30/60 seconds). Squish in and out between teeth (it is liquid floss 😊).
6. The moment it starts to burn, wash it off with ACT for ideally 1 minute (the most important mouth rinse).
I just had my 6 month check up. My hygienist couldn’t stop complimenting me on how fantastic my teeth and gums looked. She wanted to know what I was doing.
I explained that I had started your program last summer and stopped flossing. She was floored! Could not believe it. I gave her the links to your videos.
She said her mind was blown and couldn’t wait to watch your videos.
Thank you Dr Ellie. I tell everyone about you and your program.👏👏👏👍
Oh wow! That is awesome. Thank you for your story and sharing it.
@@dr.elliephillipsI started your recommendation 7 months ago I had predontel disease. I just had a dental X-ray s week ago and X-ray came out great. But my hygienist removed plaque. Why did I still get plaque. What am I doing wrong?
@@dr.elliephillips Why are you against CPC mouthwashes which have been proven to combat gum disease?
@@Berrypancakes229 were you still diagnosed with periodontal disease?
@@jss.2020 no. My X-ray were good. No more periodtal disease.. praise God my Heavenly Father.
Dr Ellie’s mentors in dental education forced her to take higher level science classes because she was a woman. I wonder if they were hoping she might drop out? However, not only did it make her a better dentist because she is more qualified, but what she learned made her more compassionate to her patience to truly want to help them! I’d say God uses everything (even potential setbacks) for our good and His glory!
Back then, yes. They definitely wanted her to drop out, go home and get married, and raise kids. Back then, most people thought that was a woman’s place. Not as a dentist.
@@sweetlorraine664 you are wiser than most.
Amen 🙌
Yall are assuming too much. What if she was just a smart student who needed the extra challenge to get even better?
He gets the most mileage out of everything.
It absolutely works - I am 67 and haven’t been to a dentist for 15 years out of fear and money - I was having gum problems last August - I knew I had to go see a dentist but knew I had many cavities and they would want to do more than just help with with my gums.- then One of her videos showed up on my feed. I started her routine and I can not believe what has happened- I only wish I took a before and after picture of my teeth - bleeding gums and cavities - today you would not believe how they repaired naturally - Thank you so much for teaching the truth!!! You have been such a blessing and I encourage everyone - especially us who are terrified of dentists - to start this routine. It doesn’t take long - no more than 5 mins - morning and night.
So it's healed all your cavities?
Thats what i want to know too!@hazelchief-rabbit5903
Are your cavities healed? Please reply
@@ChandrimaBhadraburman cavities are more difficult to heal than gums sir
@@ChandrimaBhadraburman ofc she already said do you need written proof
Ok I’m back! A month later, here’s the update:
No plaque build up ever! I wake up with no morning breath but that could be also due to my diet. I have had some receding gums and one of them was in the front and it’s literally slowly growing back to its normal place! I had a sensitivity on one of my back tooth’s but not any more after being consistent with this regiment. I’m so happy with the results!!. I have been struggling with sensitivity and gum recession for a while. It’s not too bad but it worried me for a long time and now thanks to Dr. Ellie i have a better teeth regiment than ever before. I’ll update in 3 months.
Fantastic!
good to hear. hope it’s still going well for you
Did you experience any sensitivity in the beginning?
I am using the program for now 2 weeks and my sensitivity increased. I’m wondering if it is the Zellies …. I really want this system to work. I switched from using Risewell for a few months … my teeth got yellow and thin looking.
Hydrogen peroxide is actually great for receding gum lines. Apparently, fluoride in the toothpaste can cause a receding gum line add peroxide helps heal the gums so they can grow back
@@GameChanger597 ??dr Ellie specifically says not to use peroxide.?? Where did you come across this information?
For those of you thinking she’s solely trying to sell products: remember that you can get all of the recommended products outside of her. Consider that for a moment.
Any protocol recommending mouthwash is nonsense
So you don't think she's making any money off of this "system"? From people clicking on links, from her youtube video's, etc. What she's actually selling is an easy, affordable sure bet to your dental woes, why wouldn't that draw the masses? Her system has completely ruined my mouth for almost 2 weeks. Understandably so when doing a deeper dive into the poisons in the products she's recommending.
@@tektako Please provide reasoning behind your statement.
@@QOrtiz something i read somewhere
@@tektako source: trust me bro
I just want to say I've been doing this complete mouth care system for a year. My gums were experiencing heavy recession and sensitivity. I tried this complete mouth care sustem And bought all the items listed and it WORKS my gums are in much better shape that my dentist was shocked!!! And I didn't floss!! Instead I used the interdental picks to get food that was stuck between my teeth but NO FLOSSING my gums were getting irritated because of that. For all those that are skeptical try it!!! It works!!!
Do you do all steps including Listerine? I was wondering since it's acidic and has coloring, that it might stain teeth. Plus it might kill good bacteria together with the bad. I was wondering if skipping Listerine and just using ACT after brushing would get the same results. Also, do you rinse out ACT with water? If you dont rinse out, can it stain teeth since it's green and has food coloring
@@samanthal7051 do not use water to rinse afterwards I spit about 3-4 times after the final application as I have a tendency to be sensitive to dental products, but it does NOT stain your teeth.
I was gifted a dental scaler tool in 1970 and used it every month since then to remove any tartar building on my lower teeth, letting the dental hygienist remove other areas at my six month visits. However, the past three months I have used most of your recommendations, the Listerine, brushing advice, eating xylitol, chewing xylitol gum or eating the xylitol mints, and I have not built up any tartar whatsoever. My scaler still sits in its holder, now just as a souvenir of the past. No more baking soda, no more whitening strips, no more whitening toothpastes. Your system works! Thank you!
Does her protocol written teeth
@@slee7991 She has a separate video on teeth whitening if you click on her channel account & search for whiten teeth it'll pull the topics up
@@slee7991some say however it is always best to do it and find out for yourself.
@@slee7991 did you watch the video? I'm guessing no.
@@EverydayPeople-tx3js yes, she says it does! Because by building up a strong enamel covering on your teeth that makes them reflect light naturally which is what gives the white appearance.
It took me about 10 months to get consistent enough with this routine to reverse my dental health. Today for the first time in years my gums did not bleed when i brushed!! I am over the moon.
I started this system right after my dental cleaning where I was told I needed a root canal. I decided to wait and see if this could help repair it. At my next dentist visit the tooth was fine, I honestly forgot about it because it felt fine. 4 of my kids also went to the dentist yesterday and all are cavity free. I am a lifelong believer. Thank you.
Who would believe that?
I need this to remineralize my teeth. Heal cavity' and abses on my gums. Rooth canal going bad
@@LoyolaManWhat do you mean?
Hmm root canal level of damage seems a bit unbelievable to be treatable/repairable at home. As I understand it, for someone to recommend root canal that would mean you have a cavity reaching all the way down to the tooth nerve, and it has been infected. Maybe the infection of the soft tissue inside is gone, but then how would that long hole reaching all the way down be filled without a dentist?
@@mitkoogrozev maybe not the situation here but in my experience I've had rootcanal recomended by some dentists in teeth where there wasn't even any pain and then had super painfull situations saved by another dentist without the root canal treatment where I absolutely expected it. So could also depend if its an actuall necessity or a greedy doctor.
I bought everything in your system including your book! I used to be a daily flosser but my teeth feel better now after just a few weeks. Thanks for sharing preventative care. I did a degree in Health Sciences and it made me depressed how little they talk about preventative care as opposed to treatment.
Can please you give me a list of what your purchsed? I would like to try it all.
@@singhmaster4 If you go to my website DrEllie.com there is a free downloadable booklet and more information and links to ensure you get the absolute correct products. One small mistake and this strategy will not work as well...that's why we sell an introduction "kit" to kick off the process.

Thank you so much Dr Phillips, your reccommendations worked like magic.

Thanks Dr Phillips may help a d bless you more for helping lots people like me
I'm 17 and I'm watching this after having a nightmare about my teeth!! So glad I gave you an hour of my time. I've always been terrible at this stuff, but it'll be a lot easier now that I feel informed and have a routine that's easy to follow. Let's hope my teeth are pretty good when I'm aged! 😘 Thanks.
I went for my 6 month cleaning because I only started your system a couple of weeks ago and I wanted a clean slate to judge how well it worked. Could not believe how much less sensitive my teeth were during the sonar clean, with hardly any ouchies at all. Hygienist said I had much less plaque than last time. Dentist was also impressed. Then they wanted me to explain the new protocol I was following which I did. I think the hygienist is a bit skeptical that 6 months from now I will be plaque free, but I am fully expecting it. Thanks, Dr Ellie, because years of brushing and flossing just didn't work that well.
So happy that you were able to make the move to a new idea.
This is very hard for a lot of people who have been brainwashed since they were children to simply "accept" the dogma of dentistry - even crazy ideas that have no scientific backing!
If your DDS or RDH is truly interested in "how" your change occurred, my book Mouth Care Comes Clean is a good read for a dental professional.
My first book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye can be more difficult (not just because of the title - but it is more a "story" for people to know about the background that created this system). Mouth Care Comes Clean is about biology of the mouth that was discovered in 2007 by the Human Microbiome Project and how this SHOULD have changed the way dentistry is practiced.
@ChauNguyen-fw2hz When you have healthy oral biofilm it is protective of our gum, tooth and mouth tissues. It is a bulletproof film composed of proteins and healthy bacteria designed to coat our entire mouth and protect it from chemical, thermal and biological attacks - especially to protect from the chemistry of foods, temperatures (hot and cold) of drinks and foods and from cavity and gum disease bacteria.
Certain products (baking soda, artificial whitening and peroxide) literally dissolve this protective coating off our mouths.
Dry mouth will also damage this coating. Long periods of sipping acidic drinks - soda or sports drinks - or for women being pregnant when their saliva pH becomes acidic for 9 months - are all reasons to loose this biofilm protection. Smoking of course will also damage it...which is why smokers have periodontal issues and dry mouth problems.....
The key it to rebuild this biofilm. Zellies at the end of meals will alkalize your mouth.
Then if you do not eat or drink for 1-2 hours the xylitol will feed the good bacteria and enable them to rebuild this biofilm covering.
My Complete Mouth Care System helps rebuild this biofilm covering - working in synergy with xylitol.
You need every product in the system - exactly - and in the correct sequence - for this to work.
For people who experience "burning" from Listerine - it indicates they have lost this protective covering.
The system will rebuild it - and this will take from days to weeks to months - depending on your immune system health and your general speed of healing.
If you are an unhealthy smoker who eats a poor diet and is taking many medications - this may take some time.
if you are a healthy person who simply had a few bad habits ( whitening teeth or using baking soda paste etc for example) then your turn around time may be a few days.
The secret is to only use the Listerine up until it "burns" - and then spit out - and rinse with the ACT.
Ensure you have the toothpaste residue on your teeth - just spit out the big glob of toothpaste and let the Listerine wash the rest of the toothpaste off your teeth.
Squish the Listerine in and out between your teeth - but only until you fee the "heat" and then spit it out.
Time this if you can - and you will see the time it takes to feel "hot" will extend gradually.
This is your sign that you are developing healthy biofilm.
Do not forget that most of the work is done by xylitol after meals - when your saliva flow is full of proteins after meals.
The system is just the icing on the cake......please let me know if this helps explain how to achieve the results you want.
Brush lower than the grafts and on the inside areas of your teeth if you are nervous to brush on top of the grafts.
You could even use a clean cloth and use your finger to do some gentle massage over the grafts.
The massage is to "call" stem cells to the area - to regrow and heal these wounds.
if you need more help from me - I have an oral health bootcamp at my website DrEllie.com that you may find useful.
That's great news!
Question: did you floss on a daily basis, if at all?
Thanks.
Two words... Oil Pulling. It works and you don't need all these steps with harsh chemicals
@@dr.elliephillipsHi Dr. Ellie making the transition slowly as I've to order some of the items Abroad like Closys, Act and your Zellies. As of now im back on Listerine and since i left it way back in College and Crest. In the meantime ive taken the habit of Xylitol after every meal etc. I feel all this has made a vast improvement. I just couple it with my tongue cleaner routine. Oil pulling i still practice but on the whole your Routine is my main event mornings and evenings before sleeping. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
I’ve followed Ellie’s system religiously for two months since a dental cleaning. No plaque at all has formed in my mouth. Normally, in the past I’d detect plaque at the back of my lower front teeth within three days.

Thank you Dr. Phillips, you are one of the few honest dentist. It is becoming so difficult to find a dentist who does not want me to pay for their exotic vacations. Preventative maintenance is the most cost effective way to go.
I agree with you. I have also found it impossible to interest dental insurance companies in the idea of promoting home care preventive strategies. This is insane.
@@dr.elliephillips It really is insane since medical insurance companies push preventative medical because they found that, in the long run, it saves them BIG money on costly treatments.

@@LastTrump7 Big and misunderstood topic. Lots of myths. DrEllie.com for my strategies that have worked for many decades to stop, prevent and even reverse cavities and gum disease. Healthy bacteria multiply with my strategies and soon I hope to prove all these fear mongers completely wrong with their misinformation.
@@LastTrump7 Not accurate and not when used in my system of care.
This system works!!!! I do not know Dr. Ellie or any of her family and I don't have an ownership in any of the products she recommends. I cannot believe the changes in my gums and teeth. For years, I had a deep pocket in the top of my mouth between two teeth. I could not eat anything, especially salads and meat without food being trapped in that pocket. It was uncomfortable to say the least and I needed to floss that area immediately after eating. I also had a pulsating feeling in that area, sometimes worse than others and I just knew I would have to be pulling one of those teeth sometime soon. I also had gum recession in my lower gums and had a definite brown line below my teeth revealing the recession. Well, guess what? I tried Dr. Ellie's cleaning system, and that pocket has seemed to have closed itself up. No kidding! I don't even have to floss between the top teeth that had the pocket anymore and there is no more pulsing pain. I suppose my gums improved there and helped to close up that pocket. I even have noticed hardly any tartar buildup since I started her system. I decided to cancel my last cleaning. My gums on the bottom teeth that I mentioned, grew also to almost completely cover up that brown line showing. It's hard to believe that Dr. Ellie's system works, but it does! I would suggest you try it and don't give up and you will see the changes in your mouth. I would also like to recommend the Soft, Parodontax complete protection toothbrushes. They are very full, soft and the ergonomic handle doesn't slip easily like most toothbrushes. I get mine at Wal-Mart. They come 2/pack. Can't remember the exact price but I think they're $6ish.
Now one month since using this system. The turn around in my dental health is so dramatic that, even after only four weeks, it’s hard to remember that my mouth was in the poor and deteriorating condition it was in. Main issue was receding gums accompanied by increasing sensitivity, to the point where my teeth felt weak. If I ate anything hard or crunchy, it almost felt like my teeth would break. But after a month on this system all sensitivity is completely gone. My teeth feel incredibly strong. I can crunch on anything and feel not even a hint of sensitivity. My gums are pink. Can’t say any receding gums have restored. But my gums have a different look, like they are more relaxed. My teeth look and feel incredibly clean. My mouth feels and smells so clean. No bad tastes or odors, just the taste of saliva. And my mouth now seems to be producing more saliva. I cannot be more grateful for Dr. Ellie and this system.
Thanks for the update!
Would you say your receding gums didn’t get worse though? For me this is my main priority since it makes me self conscious
@@krandly8 The opposite. Have yet to notice any actual regrowth, but the recession has stopped. Most striking difference was with sensitivity. Was at the point where eating softer foods (like bread, of all things) was hurting my teeth. Now, nothing. Not a hint of pain or sensitivity. Teeth are rock solid; I can crunch hard foods without thinking about it. I’ve been using the system going into five months now and have zero issues. It’s an invaluable investment.
Did you have any loose teeth due to gum problems
@@kenyaettahboss4240 No loose teeth, but my teeth felt weak. They were starting to break and chip when eating any kind of hard foods - for example, even hard bread crust. At the same time, my gums and teeth were getting super sensitive, which also caused me to avoid eating hard foods. But almost immediately after I started using this system, my teeth strengthened and all sensitivity went away. I’m using the system six months now. I can eat whatever I want without a second thought. Teeth and gums are stronger than ever. Have the sensation that I could bite into a brick and nothing would happen to my teeth. Such a great system. Truly life changing.
I started using Dr.Ellie's dental system after reading her book called "Kiss your dentist goodbye." And that's precisely what it did. I haven't been to a dentist in years and have no dental problems at all, thanks to my daily use of this system. It works. If more people used this effective system, they would be able to keep their teeth and avoid serious teeth and gum problems.

@@user-be5qg7mr1s I find if you do a pull with a teaspoon of granulated xylitol put the xylitol in your mouth rub the granules around all your teeth until it turns to liquid swish it around for as long as you can then spit it out the tartar will start to break up and follow this method good luckxx

Truly an amazing oral routine. I'm 65 years old and can't believe the change in 5 weeks of using Dr. Ellie's system: Zellies, Closys, Crest anticavity, Listerine, and ACT. Tartar is slowly disappearing and teeth are brighter. Thank you, Dr. Ellie, for your brilliant plan!
Was your tartar a brown/black colour and really hard? Asking from Australia.🦘

@@hanney91 will do!
@@sherox414 are u still using the system? has it worked for you or made any difference
Wow - I started following Dr Ellie's protocol with all of the products just over 3 months ago. I had a very sore tooth at the time on my bottom jaw and knew it couldn't be good. The soreness gradually went away and is now completely gone (before if I even touched that area on my face - it hurt!). Teeth are white and tartar is gone (I am a coffee drinker). This woman really knows what she is talking about!! I think she is right that the small amount of flouride in some of the products that is spit out is probably not too bad as it is such a tiny amount. So glad I found this woman!!
Just started this system 2 weeks ago and I’m starting to see a difference already! I’m 80 years old have most of my own teeth. I can see the plaque already diminishing! Will give you updates! Thank you Dr Ellie !
@MaryDurica yes! I do have gum recession especially on my lower front teeth. I can see it beginning to heal already but I do realize it takes time! Thanks for asking! God bless!
@MaryDurica Yes! I follow her system precisely and it’s so easy to do. The Zylitol several times a day is so important as this helps with making your teeth white. Hope this helps and God Bless!

I'm from Germany and currently learning this for my parents. I'm just glad that someone out there put in a lifetime to research all of this, so I get the condensed information to help my folks. :) Thank you
Hello there!! Could you tell me what similar products I can get in Germany?
@@susaninan I wish I knew. It wasn't as easy as I thought because we don't have the same products here. Sorry I can't be of much help. :/
I see Crest toothpaste is available to buy online in Germany.
This is a game-changing system. I've been using this system for almost two months. I have zero sensitivity or bleeding anymore. 🎉
Did you notice more bleeding at the beginning of the treatment ?
A tiny bit, but that went away very quickly.
@@misstakess6495I have been having regular bleeding for 3 months now and using this mouth care system and wondering if it is going to cure the bleeding :(
I was having bleeding and inflamed gums, and using this has completely stopped these issues.
@@misstakess6495 thank you so much ! It is giving me much hope ! ♥️
I started this system about 2 weeks ago, and I am so happy to see how much better my teeth are already. I no longer feel plague on my teeth, sensitivity has already improved and my enamel feels smoother and stronger, gums are looking more full.
Plaque is a plague 😂
@@howiecd3861 still using the system? has it been working
My last teeth cleaning left my gums hurt & teeth sensitive for over 3 weeks. Last year both Dentist & Hygienist suggested to rinse with peroxide 2-3 times a week after brushing. I did. The gum recession started accelerate 3 times faster. That was depressing to see. Looking for the answer, I run onto Dr. Ellie’s video. I got the Book, and bought the recommended stuff. Your detail explanations are a plus. I have a hope now! Thank you for being a Real Doctor!
How’s it going?
Thank God for you, Dr. Ellie! Two weeks ago, my dentist told me that I had a cavity forming in a tooth that already had a filling, and my only option was to get a root canal or extraction. One of your videos popped up in my TH-cam feed, and I began watching it. Afterwards, I watched many of your videos...my favorite is the one that is an hour long, explaining the mouth care system. I wanted to get started immediately, so I found all the items in your system locally. I was already using another brand of Xylitol, which I enjoy, but after you shared all of this information for free, I just had to buy some Zellies! I have been using your program for just over a week, and I can already see the cavity healling itself! My mouth always feels clean and wonderful, and I look forward to my twice-a-day routine. Thank you so much!
I am *amazed* at how rapidly this process works. I was beginning to have gum issues and tooth sensitivity. Within TWO days of working this process, the sensitivity went away *completely*. I am excited to see the results with my gums as the days tick off! Dr. Ellie, THANK YOU!
Congratulations - this is such great news. This system works best for a “healthy” person as it is stimulating your own mouth to heal itself.
But the good news is that this system works for everyone - even people who smoke or have poor digestive health for example. These individuals have more challenges to overcome so they may have to wait a week or two longer for the same results.
In almost all cases gums and dental decay will be healed (or substantially improved) within 3- 6 months - so it’s perfect to use this system between dental visits.
The only time it won’t work is if someone has a dead tooth. There is no way to bring a dead tooth back to life!
Thanks so much for your comment and feedback. Once again I’m so happy you tried this - congratulations!
I love your videos so much Dr. Ellie! I'm almost 60, and in England growing up, we were told such twaddle about oral health. It's a money making business. Never heard oral health explained so concisely, logically and relatable. Thank you so much! I'm going to start this today. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
1. Closys - ultra sensitive for 30 sec-1 min before brushing
2. Crest remineralization tooth paste before cavities - 2 green pea size toothpaste
3. Mouth watchers or Dr plotka Bristle or dense toothbrush/ no electric brushes and brush/ massage the gums
4. Listerine cool mint or original rinse for as long as you can stand it.
5. ACT anticavity
6. Zellies chewies or gums
Lol. Just wanted to point out you don't want to rinse your mouth out with Listeria. I think you meant to type Listerine
@@scsablan8956 she covers that
Watch the video once again and delete this as erroneous blunder
I may be wrong but I think it’s Crest Cavity toothpaste (helps stop cavities before they start) and not Crest remineralising
@@nbaker7758 You're not wrong & it's the "gum health" Crest she warns against with the bad formula
It’s been three months since I started your 5 step system , my Gingivitis is gone and I didn’t have any plaque deposit on my teeth.Thank you so much dr.Ellie! Your five system works!
Dr. Ellie I will be singing my praises for you to my children and (if Im lucky enough) to my grandchildren aswell! ❤ I just want to share my story - My first pregnancy resulted in 8 big cavities which one of them resulted to a root canal so I was sad and desperate and tried everything that promised to save my teeth including oil pulling, salt rinses, I was recommended going to cleanings every 3months… nothing seemed to help. Then I stumbled on xylitol and boy did just that one thing helped to turn around my oral health. I chewed xylitol gums everyday after every meal. I made a habit out of it. Then to top it I discovered your videos so I introduced your system to my regime. Yesterday I got back from the dentist for my yearly appointment and they did some x-rays and my dentist just said that it looks more than good on the scans and Ive got ZERO new cavities. My teeth look shiny and white, my gums are pink and I couldnt be more happy. Thank you for being such an amazing human being and teaching us to care for our oral health ❤
Where can I purchase your complete mouth care system?
@@gwenodom7320 Honestly, I have had such success, and read so many, many similar stories here that I want to purchase the products and send them from the US to the rest of the world just as a courtesy! I saw that some of the products are available from Amazon in Italy where I'll be for a month soon, so I may ship a box to myself in Rome. Listerine is very available in stores and pharmacies, but the other products are trickier to find and still heavy for a suitcase. I think one or two products might be found on Amazon Italy.
I must thank Dr Ellie. Ive been trying to save my teeth for years. My partner and daughter both have different dental issues. I got the products for us for Christmas . Today is New Years Day. We have all had transformative dental experiences in the last week. This works. Thank you Dr Ellie!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
@@jaziibrahim7413 yes
@jaziibrahim7413 good luck friend!
FYI, my gum was never pink. But now, their getting pink. I am so happy. Keep providing this great information. I was too scared to go to the dentist because my health got worse. So it's been 1 decade that I haven't visited the dentist because of my health getting worst. So, thank you for this information. I have to admit that I used your complete program however some times I used it once a day. However now I'm on track. I now use it 2x a day and regardless I do see results and I'm so happy. I'm definitely trusting you. Thank you! 😂
Hi Doctor. I started using your routine religiously and in a few weeks I saw improvements in my saliva. I was getting this gross brown film on my teeth when slept despite conventional brushing. I was becoming self conscious about it. Anyway, now I’m using the Closys, Listerine, Crest anti cavity and Act and the film has completely stopped forming on my teeth. My gums are less red and look much smoother. They no longer bleed when I brush. Dentists would only recommend deep cleaning. I got one and they wanted me to do another 12 months later. Nothing was improving because it was their only suggestion. Now my mouth is doing better and I will continue for 3-6 months with the complete mouthcare system and Zellies. Thank you.
I've put all your recommended items in my Amazon cart while I watched the video so I know they are the exact items to start my new oral regimen, thank you for your hard work and most of all thank you for sharing this information with us, I doubted I'd be able to keep my teeth for my entire life but because of you and your videos I feel like I stand a chance.
I would highly recommend adding sleeping with mouth tape if you have a tendency to wake up with dry mouth. Mouth taping greatly improved my dental health.
Agreed. Teeth need to be bathed in saliva. I trained my tongue 👅 to be always at the roof of my mouth and it helped me with mouth breathing ❤
What type of tape would you recommend?
I have a tip for the timers. Smart phones have a clock app that you can customize and add timers. I added ones for each step, and it makes it so easy to follow. Thank you so much! I started this a few weeks ago and noticed changes right away. Now I love brushing my teeth and look forward to it. It doesn't take long at all.
Been doing this for a week now, and wow! I never felt my mouth so clean in the morning when I wake up. I slipped my scheduled cleaning and plan to go back to my dentist after a month to see what he has to say. My teeth feel so much stronger and brighter in just a week of using this system. I shared it with my husband and son too coz its such a blessing I can’t just keep it to myself. Thank you Dr. Ellie ❤️
Your dentist will say you need a dental cleaning. Your turn?
Hi Dr. Ellie! I have been using your wonderful system since 2012, when I was at my wits end with my teeth. I was on a forum, and someone mentioned your book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye. I got it from the library and immediately started your Complete Mouth Care System. IT WORKS. The only time I run into problems is when I get a bit cavalier and try other dental products. It always causes irritation. I jump right back to your system, and all is well! Thank you for all of your expertise!
Thanks for sharing! So glad to hear from you. Congratulations on your success!
Yes, avoiding all the current marketing and the scandalous wrong information on the Internet is often a challenge!
I am here to help you stay on course if you ever need extra help 😁
@@dr.elliephillips Thanks for now being on TH-cam! It's awesome. Keeps me on the straight and narrow, and I keep picking up new tips from you.
I love you. I love you so much. I have thought that my dentists were nuts for a while. They say, "floss more" and I do and it irritates my gums. They say "get a water jet", I do and it's ok but not the best. They clean my teeth twice a year and my teeth are getting worse. I went 10 years without seeing a dentist and my teeth (and gums) were not this bad. I tell them this and they say, "well you should really get your teeth cleaned 3 times a year". But somehow I went more than 10 years and my pockets remained the same, then I come under dentist care and in 2 years my pockets get so bad that I need a "flap" or "LANAP". That's when I came to TH-cam searching for other options. I will come back after I have tried your methods.
I am so happy I found you. I have been on your system for 1 month. My teeth look amazing
Wonderful! I love hearing this.
Currently in a financial rut as my parents moved around half a year ago. Last time i went to the dentist i had a cavity they wanted to get filled. I pass out getting shots, so imagine the fear of knowing it's literally within half a foot of my eyes. I cant begin this entire process all at once, so ill be building up step by step. My local kroger carries at least half of whats recommended here. Cant wait to start. I'm sad i neglected oral care as long as i have, but better late than never. Im glad such educational content is freely available online
I’m not a religious person but have used your have system and been GLAD that my teeth are now stronger in checkups. The dentist can’t make me feel pain and then suggest i need work done. That is a tangible benefit, achieved through evidence and scientific knowledge 💋 your dentist goodbye, it feels POWERFUL. ❤ your accent Ellie, i can hear varietals, im hearing a blend which gives you a well-rounded and resounding note of “wisdom gathered through travel” /wine reviewer
You are very kind.
I've certainly had a multitude of experiences and opportunities - many delightful - and some a little more difficult!
Today I delight in "meeting" people through TH-cam and having a moment to interact like this.
Thank you for your generous comments.
It is my pleasure to share what I know in the hope it will empower individuals to understand their oral health and avoid unnecessary treatments.
😊
@@dr.elliephillips you are welcome. It’s time and energy consuming to release material like you have, and be revising it as your research grows.
IE your theory of how relative levels of exposure to flouride are substantial or not.
The caveat is that for kidney and other disease for instance, reasonable amounts are excessive.
Some countries have water systems so fluoridated that it is more than enough simply through water in product and from the tap (faucet, if you will) or ground supply.
I respect you enormously that you have stuck your head above the parapet and are now exposed to a range of reactions from people, some who have complicated dental environment which might not respond quickly!
So far, so good. As of a week in, I have a much healthier mouth. My teeth feel more slippery, and it doesn't dry out as bad. My gums stopped bleeding. And I can taste my food better. I've been following the steps to a Tee and will continue to do so!
Thank you so much!!! ❤
I would like to ask you, I found the same toothpaste one regular and the other one with a slight minty taste. Which one did you get?
@@jaziibrahim7413 do you rinse with water at the end or just stop after the act?
I use the exact brand and type of products that she lists.
I am also starting to see my tongue is much more pink, and it seems like my gums are growing back in the spaces in between my teeth. Im really happy I found this mouth care system. 🪥❤️
@@TakkahoNo you don't rinse with water according to the booklet.
This Doctor is down to earth and very professional.
I can vouch for the Xylitol and Act Restoring. Using just those two I turned my teeth and gums around dramatically. I used the blue Act Restoring 0.05% Sodium Fluoride. Still use it. I believe this lady. And I don't believe people easily. But I know that I had DRAMATIC success using two of the products she recommends. Also, she is incredibly smart and has had a passion for achieving ideal oral health for a long time. Care, combined with intellect, combined with practice is true, holistic intelligence- that's something not a lot of people possess and it can't be faked. At least not around me. I'm looking forward to trying this system. There's not a doubt in my mind about it. I'll be back in six months with an update.
47:40 I have a video topic for you! Those of us who are neurodivergent (adhd, autism) often struggle to brush for many various reasons. What you say here about teens who don’t brush made me think “a minimal care” video for people with not enough “spoons” for dental hygiene would be very popular. (For people with depression and CFS, too!) Not being able to keep up with oral hygiene affects people’s mood, self confidence, etc. This education would be so appreciated by these communities! Thank you for everything!
Wow, I had not realized this. I am ADHD and struggling with Lyme disease and I have this issue. Lyme affects the mouth and can play havoc on your teeth.Thank you for bringing gong this up.
At some point in the video she mentioned “if your teenager won’t follow the system” to at least have them use the ACT mouthwash and Zelle’s after meals as well as brushing method/ toothpaste. I struggle with adhd and depression and felt overwhelmed by this video but after watching it a few times and letting myself build up to it I feel confidence in following the system
Minimal care would be you using an electric toothbrush and no toothpaste and some mouthwash made out of peppermint and a pinch of baking soda. You make your bathroom the most glorious place in the world so you want to hang out in there. You color things orange so they tell your subconscious to do it.
@@FamilyAubel Actually I’d recommend people try using a Miswak stick.I will try to explain how to do this in a new video. Great idea. Thank you!
Hey thank you for mentioning people with Cfs and ADHD! I am sometimes too exhausted to take care of myself like I should! You are very considerate! Also have you ever tried oil pulling? Look it up, I was actually homeless and I went to the dentist and he told me I have the healthiest gums he has ever seen because I began brushing with coconut oil and baking soda and also oil pulling (swishing oil in the mouth for 10 or 20 minutes). Thank you!
I am so grateful to have come across this video. This video was very informative in a very easy to understand manner that made complete sense. And as many people cannot afford dental visits or treatment, this information is vital to keeping our teeth healthy without huge financial sacrifices or costs. Thank you Dr. Ellie Phillips for sharing your knowledge and experience to help humanity be able to properly care for our oral health which is very important to our overall health. Looking forward to starting your complete system. From Ontario, Canada 👍
Im new this year to Dr. Ellie Phillips mouth care routine...45 days later, im sensodyne free and almost all of my painful spots have vanished.
Im happy to have this routine/knowledge and in my 50's im able to work towards keep all of my natural teeth as i get older.
Thank you Dr. Ellie Phillips ❤
Did your sensitivity improve? I have severe sensitivity which gets worse if stop using sensodyne
@@shishirasma5593 so far i can now brush my teeth/gums all over my mouth, as b4 I needed Sensidine toothpaste or I couldn't even without horrible pain. Seems the pockets in my gums are healing and healthier for sure, its really amazing. Can't wait till I go back to my dentist and see the difference, hopefully by then ill have even more positive changes. Only sensitivity I feel occasionally is if I eat something cold and then hot food back to back.
Also my teeth look brighter and feel great. ..highly recommend her system.
@Dr.ElliePhillips
I started brushing the way you recommended last week with crest cavity protection, Listerine original and flossing with the toothpaste still in my mouth because that's all I had at the time.
I bought the system (products) yesterday. I did my first treatment last night and my mouth feels AMAZING!!!!!🥰🥰🥰
IT IS a spa treatment for your mouth. ❤❤❤😁😁😁🥳🥳🥳
I didn't brush my tongue but I did floss. I also redid the last 2 steps because I rinsed my mouth out with water which I will no longer do.
This morning, I had NO morning breath. My mouth feels so good. My teeth already has that diamond sparkle, they are already starting to whiten and my gums look healthier since starting your brushing method last week. 😍🤩 It has even helped my stomache issues that were causing sour tongue and breath odor.💃💃
I am soooooo grateful to you for sharing this information. 💛💛💛🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
I'm even more grateful to God for the video showing up in my recommended watch category. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I cannot thank you enough!!! God bless you and continue sharing your knowledge.
I pray for healing during these hard times. I can only continue to pray for healing. I love my teeth now and I have a new outlook on our health
Do you live in the United States?
Here it is very easy to get the products I recommend - most of them are in Walmart - or you can get through Amazon.
Just be sure to get the exact products.
I have a free downloadable booklet on my website at DrEllie.com
There are links to the products there.
Begin with xylitol at the end of meals - either Zellies mints or you can use granular ( which is less expensive but I don't sell - so you will have to go to a health store or Amazon to find).
Get the correct Crest paste ( $1.95) and start there - using the paste twice a day.
It works in synergy with the xylitol.
You can start this program like this if necessary and see improvements - if you stop eating and drinking between meals and always clean your gums and teeth before sleeping at night. Even have a little xylitol after cleaning your teeth....let a few crystals dissolve on your tongue.....just see the difference this will make :)
I have been doing this program for a month and I had an issue around a crown with root canal and even after a month my teeth are definitely looking whiter and the gum around the crown has resolved. I'm so happy with my teeth and gums! You're amazing Dr Ellie!
I have had gingivitis and periodontal disease for 25+ years--and this is despite taking great care of my teeth. I have had painful periodontal surgeries to stop & repair the damage caused by pathogens. X-rays show the extensive loss of bone from the chronic infection--very discouraging. The surgeries have stopped the damage, as has the use of a Braun Oral-B toothbrush (which has been critical to my recovery). Yet my dental health is still below what I want. I am always on the brink of another periodontal crisis. Again, I do everything that my dentist recommends.
I am going to try this complete oral system. I am ready to try something different.
I fell like I am I. The same boat as you but a much younger age. Let us know how it goes.. going to give this a shot too.
@@BrandieKae I am worried because I am changing my normal routine. It has worked for me since my recovery. It does not achieve perfect health, but it at least stops the decline and keeps me at an ok level of health. In 3 months, I will see my hygienist again. I sure hope that my condition is not horrible.
Let us know the update
@tiffanycoles828 well I have been doing this for about 10 days now and I can testify that I have less tooth pain and my teeth feel really clean. The gums are still healing but look a little better. I will keep going 💪
I'm litterally about to cry reading some of these comments. I just started a journey with my dentist through a gum infection and I have receding gums, a black triangle between my lower feont teeth, and a few deeper pockets. I have very crowded teeth and have been considering braces for that.
I have to clear up the infection first. I just got through one of your other videos and I'm just now only 6 minutes into this one for the first time and I already have such a good outlook for this healing process!! I'm going to get through this video and see if I can save my mouth health! I am determined too! I feel as though I can trust you and that you have the best in mind for the people you are trying to help! Thank you so much!!
This video just popped up I thank God for her. I had a bad tooth sending pains to the temple area and top of my head i went to the store and got the products. After the 1st application I feel alot better ...I will come back in a few months with a update. This lady knows what she doing. Thank you Doctor Ellie God bless you and your family. I will get the kit later to support her website plus i need the zellies and her book. I went to the store because I was in so much pain and I want to start gum care immediately 😊
Such rave reviews may only hurt the cause

Thank you so much for this video! My husband is super stressed about the health of his teeth/mouth. We’re both going to try this system and see how it goes! I love the way you explain everything. You are so sweet and genuine! Please make a video on what kind of care/products you recommend for children under 7!!!❤ I have two toddlers and want to start teaching them good habits with oral care ASAP 😁🥰
Check out the blogs at zellies.com about oral care for kids.
You are so amazing for doing this! Thank goodness we finally have someone like you! So grateful and can’t wait to try! Will definitely check in to let everyone know how it worked for me! Thank you for all your work! We need more people like you!
Did it work?
When Dr Ellie mentions the protective biofilm being removed at cleanings... i specifically remember when I was in high school. I went for my regular cleaning, after she cleaned my teeth, I felt like my bottom permanent retainer area was fuzzy and rough feeling the next day and onwards. Crazy that as a kid, I asked myself in my head, "What did that hygienist do to my teeth?!" They felt so slick and clean BEFORE, and it was noticeably different for months after I left that office. Wow.
I feel like my teeth are already getting better by listening to you.
😂😂😂
Same here 😂😂😂
😂😂
Yes! I find I become immeasurably fitter by watching workout videos, especially the Pilates ones. I think it’s the cringing I do with those because they look hard!
Seriously, I think this doctor’s system is sound. I watched the video twice to get all my questions answered, then did some research. So far the system is working for me.
:D
Thank you Ellie for this thorough video and for also mentioning the certain ingredients in the products that are undesirable but not a major concern. I have been a label reader for many years and was hesitant with the products when I started this almost 2 weeks ago. But after this updated video, you've eased my fears about the coloring, fluoride, etc. The benefits are so well worth it.
I was worried about my receding gum line, that's how I stumbled upon your video. I used to floss every night for years. I stopped flossing when I learned in another video of yours that it can damage the gums. Your system makes complete and total sense to me. And it so easy and quick. I love how clean my teeth feel now. Also my teeth are much whiter. I've always had stains from tea, etc.
I had a dentist appointment coming up in 2 weeks but postponed it today until March. I am excited to test this and see if my gum line improves. When I go for my check up I will probably ask them not to do the cleaning. At the dentist, scraping the tarter off my teeth was the worst. I am thinking I won't have to endure that anymore. Thank you very much!!!
I've been trying this system for about a month now and have similar results to you. My gums have a little receding and am excited to see if they stop at my next dental visit! My teeth are so smooth and clean all day!
I’ve been doing the system just two weeks, but my oral health, which had been declining similarly to what you described about yours, has done a complete turn around. I had done everything else to maintain healthy teeth and gums, and nothing stopped the steady and discouraging decline. But Dr. Ellie’s system produced immediate results. Now I feel like I finally have a handle on the situation and that my oral health is finally improving.
Do any of you who have had success happen to be on prescription medications or smoke?
@@jackiemcdonell1737 Neither.
@@jackiemcdonell1737 neither.
This is one of the most amazing finds I've had on TH-cam.
I'm starting this immediately and already telling everyone I know about this. Thank you and God bless you!
After watching this I realized using the listerine and people with plaque build up and heart disease. Using listerine kills the strep which is what makes the danger in heart disease and dental hygiene. It's make sense. I don't like to floss just because it takes time. I go to get my teeth cleaned once every 3 years while the rest of the family does it every 6 months. The dentist never seems to have issues with my teeth. Yet my husband teases me that I don't take care of my teeth. I don't have plaque build up. He has horrible receding gum line because he brushes to hard and to long. Every six months he has an appointment an dthey tell him he has pockets. I don't. I am so glad I watched this.
Do you still use her system? Is it still working
Wow! I cannot believe your age! When you mentioned 60s I became fascinated by how young you look and by your energy! Thank you for the video Dr. Phillips.
I would have guessed he was 70
Thank you for being so detailed, thorough and specific Dr Ellie. I have always felt that a dentist should be capable of telling me what to do to better care for my teeth but somehow the conversation always ended up with me spending more money and returning more often. I don't believe they all are indifferent, but it is a fact that the industry depends on our ignorance and lethargy.
I hear no recommendations.
@@CharlotteFairchild Use my Complete Mouth Care System twice daily and xylitol after every meal. Try not to eat or drink for 1-2 hours after meals so that the xylitol can feed the good bacteria in your mouth. For a free downloadable booklet with all the details drEllie.com. Thank you :)

Oh my Dr. Ellie, before I started your complete system about a month ago, I had a front tooth that was showing decay. I was going to go to a Dentist, but I saw your video and thought seriously about the things you talked about. My decaying tooth is reversing and I am extremely happy. I am so sure that in a few months, the tooth will completely reverse. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

Thank you for making the distinction between ingesting added fluoride and using a small dose of topical fluoride.
Started your system a week ago, no plaque! My teeth are smooth, clean, and much whiter. Never really thought too much about tooth brush cleanliness, now soak in Listerine after use and dry. Thank you,Thank you, Thank you for bringing your system to the public.
Ok. I just brushed my teeth the way she said, massaging your gums , and already my teeth feel cleaner than they've ever been. I don't know how, 'cause that doesn't make sense to me, but I am already smiling more just from one time. Believe it or don't. I can hardly believe it myself!
If you want to know how it works the doctor has published two books
Ma'am. I'm so thankful to God to have come across this. I was wondering how I can brush how I do and still feel plaque. Thus system not only helped that but they're whiter! No whitening strips! Also my family is getting on board because I can't stop talking about it! God bless you❤❤❤
My 23 year old daughter with cerebral palsy can’t rinse and spit. I brush her teeth and give her xylitol gum but still worry about the strength of her teeth. She grinds them throughout the day. I am anxious to see your upcoming video on children and hope it might apply to my daughter
Dr. Ellie! I love you!! I've been using your system since August 1st and I'm already seeing a difference and getting compliments. I always say, "It's Dr. Ellie Phillips! Follow her!!"
So happy to hear this and thank you for your support and for sharing this important information about oral health!
I've been dreading a fourth extraction and implant. I have a tooth that is bleeding and painful. I started the complete mouth care system on 12/19/2023. In 1 week, the bleeding and pain stopped. It's now 2 weeks 01/07/24 and pain/bleeding is still gone! So far, I'm impressed with this and can't wait to see the results in 6 months! I use the children's/youth size toothbrush Dr. Ellie recommends, it's simply easier to massage with and brush each individual tooth.
I found the same toothpaste one regular and the other one with a slight minty taste. Which one did you get?
"cavity protection" and it's the least expensive of the entire product line.
@@carolsarazzaraThank you. Unfortunately I had to pay a lot for it via Amazon, since it is not necessary available where I'm.

This is a great video. Thank you! I love you Dr. Ellie! I found your channel about 6 weeks ago and your advice intrigued me. So 4 weeks ago I received my first order of Zellie's Dental Gum. I've been doing your recommended routine for 4 weeks and found it very easy to change my habits and follow your system. Today I put on my glasses so I can see and looked at my teeth in the mirror. I didn't expect to see such a dramatic improvement in just a short time but all my teeth and gums looks so much better. My mouth feels fresh all day, night and waking in the morning.
I was one of those people that no matter how much I brushed and flossed, every time I saw the dentist there was another cavity or crown or root canal. I spent many thousands of dollars trying to keep up. I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong as I did everything my dentist recommended for that last 50 years. Now I look forward to my next dental exam just to see what my dentist will say, but I think I will refuse the cleaning. Just maybe I won't need it. If only I had found you Dr. Ellie 50 years ago!
Dr. Ellie, you have made such a positive change in my dental health with your system. I started your system one year ago and gave it my full attention. I had pockets up to 6. I didn't share the information with my dental team. My dental hygienist was amazed at the changes and worked with me to point out areas I need to focus on. I told her about the plaque rinse and she was very positive. My pockets have reduced and I have one at 4 mm. I have minor bleeding in one tooth. I also feel my mouth is cleaner. My praise for you and this system. Thank you so much.🙏
Do you skip any steps in her systems like Listerine? Since it's 1. acidic, 2.might kill good bacteria along with the bad, 3. might stain teeth since it has coloring (i never understood why mouthwashes have coloring). I heard some dentists say Listerine is bad for teeth. I understand all steps in her system except Listerine
@@samanthal7051 I don't skip any steps. Original Listerine is harsh so I switch it with the Cool Mint . I haven't had any staining. This system creates more good bacteria to help reduce the bad bacteria.
I worked in dentistry USA for many years. They unnecessarily pulled teeth and did lots of root canals. I had many teeth taken out. Later I told a different dentist about the tests they used in the clinic, which shocked her. The dentist was burning teeth with redhot metal rod to cause pain, then saying pain meant they had to have root canal. His aim was to make over $1500 a day. My mouth is ruined by working for him. I was born well after sealants and xylitol were discovered, it was Never Ever recommended to me as a kid. I never had prevention. I need about 4 more implants at this point and probably fillings and veneers too. I believe my first filling at 10 years old was not even real. Its all profit motivated in USA. Its just a hard thing to realize.
I’m sorry for your bad experiences. 🥹
Thank you ! @@dr.elliephillips
bitty_bytes001 - you have my heartfelt condolences, you trusted a dentist whom you worked for which is normal.
If I were you, I’d still do this protocol as it is focussed on creating a healthy mouth biofilm … which is never a bad thing. Right? You still have some of your natural teeth to protect and now been given the means to do so?
Many blessings to you and again … sorry to hear of such a horrible experience.

@@doracotterell2863 Hi Dora, Yes, I already purchased all the things she mentioned and started the protocol. Yes I have some teeth. I'm missing lower right side and had a jaw infection due to an encapsulated infection after botched cavity filling. Had a bone graft after that. I have tried many dentists in NY, PA and CT they just keep disappointing me. I want to go to Europe instead. My childhood dentist although very nice, never did anything preventative. I am not that old, I should have my teeth. It is insane. My upper left side is all missing too. I chew on a premolar mostly which is not good. Yes, I also take calcium supplements specific for bone and teeth. Doing what I can. Thanks so much for the encouragement!
Sorry you had such a rotten experience with your teeth and with that crook of a dentist.
I don't think he's at all representative of dentists in USA though, fortunately. I've had 5-6 dentists in different parts of the US over years and they were all decent to exceptional people. One of the big problems in healthcare, apparently including dentistry too, became more apparent during the past 3 years - the regulatory bodies, medical advisory bodies, medical journals where studies of what (allegedly) works/doesn't work are highlighted, and the professional organizations have mostly been captured - so can't be automatically trusted any more. Big pharma owns and controls most of them, thus it's hard for even sound protocols to change the standards of practice when doctors and dentists are (purposely) misled by the journals, etc. So, it's best to take nothing on blind faith these days and when something plausiblly effective and low/no risk and cheap comes along from what seems like a very credible source, try it for yourself. Hope this system helps you!
I’ve just watched the receding gum video and I’m so excited to have found you- I’ve been doing my own dig on tooth related care and you are the missing link! I’ve had questions that I know mainstream dentists aren’t going to answer- so glad to have found you and can’t wait to try and get started on this and teach my kids! I’m done with the rake you in by the wallet dentists. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank you for stepping out and teaching us what I had been pondering- which is there is a better way to care for teeth so that teeth can cdo what they were designed to do!!
Thank you so much for this. I have flossed and brushed so much my teeth and gums are suffering. Something I rarely hear anyone talk about is how we use too much pressure when we brush. I have been following your protocal for 3 days and I definitely see and feel a difference. I will be spreading the word. XXXXXXXXXXXXX
Thank you for this wonderful education Dr Ellie! I came across you quite by mistake - how fortunate for me😂 I've had a few dental issues, and already use dentures at age 47 - I've lost too many teeth!🤭 You've taught me a lot in 2 short videos! I even called my last 4 children in to watch along with me! Thank you!!❤
Just bought the system. Had a deep cleaning today from the dentist. Lots of plaque build up. Now that all that has been removed, I am now going to try this system and see how things go. I Just did the whole system for the 1st time tonight. Mouth is feeling quite regreshing! Most refreshing on quite sometime! 🤞
How it is going so far? Any good ?
Before I spend an hour watching this, do you have to buy a book or buy the system or anything or does she tell you exactly what you need and you can go out, buy the necessary products and start doing it straight away?
Thank you so much for the detailed instructions. I have dental cleaning twice a year faithfully. Regardless I have big pockets around several teeth and lots of tartar build up. I was always told how I wasn't flossing properly. Your mouth care system seems to make more sense, I will definitely give it a try!
I just realized That I ask God I need a good dentist and would you help me find one
Your video's started to pop up
Thank you God
Thank you Dr Ellie
Dr Ellie is the barbara o neill for our mouth. She is awesome.
After researching veneers, and teeth whitening, I’m SO GLAD I found your channel! I just bought purple crest (I know). After watching the complete video, I am feeling so guilty to have to use that. I can’t wait to run to the store to start the complete mouth care system. I read all the positive comments. This is how healthcare should be! Can’t wait to binge watch every video. ❤❤❤
PS I no longer want veneers! I prefer to maintain my own teeth and make them stronger vs hiding potential problems with a tooth covering!
Ok, I’m back! So one week of following Dr. Ellies complete care system, my teeth have never been so clean! I wake up and there’s no plaque build up. Through out the day, there’s no plaque build up. Taking a xylitol mint is a game changer! If you don’t have zellies, an apple or an avocado like Dr. Ellie recommends at the end of your meals works well too I found. And! My teeth are way more whiter than using whitening toothpaste. I’m really impressed. This is definitely a game changer when it comes to dental health.
Some things I’ll be better at: is trying out the tooth brushes she recommended. I’m using up toothbrushes I have now and then when I’m done with those, I’ll be moving up to the ones recommended. I’ll also keep In mind about the buying cheap tooth brushes during travels and then getting fresh ones when you’re not traveling (I do have a trip coming up). Also I want to be better at not drinking anything an hour or two after you take a Zellie or after you brush your teeth to let the saliva do its Magic. I do weight training so when I’m a the gym, I guzzle a gallon of water. Is there any recommendations for weight trainers/gym goers when it comes to water and meals and teeth?
I’ll update in a month!
Dr. Ellie's system really does work.
I started it several months ago and overall my teeth and gums are healing and there is improvement. Thank you Dr. Ellie. ❤
That is incredible and I’m very happy for you! It give me so much hope. I’ve been having receding gums and i want to regrow them. I haven’t realized until I started listening to Dr. Ellie (and therefore changing my dental routine )that there’s so much of my dental health and overall health I’ve been needing to change because it’s been damaging my biofilm. So let’s do this!
You are the Dr. Sarno of Teeth Recovery!! May God bless!! John 3:16-17 Peace!
Yes!! Love Sarno-thinking outside the box!!
I accidentally do almost all of this in this exact order.
I like your style!
Thanks for mentioning chemo! Just discovered your clips and so glad I did. My oral health has been good over the years. I had 13 months of infusions including 3 types of chemotherapies and 2 monoclonal antibodies for estrogen fueled cancer 2019 to 2020 at 47 yo. So far teeth are doing ok but concerned about long term dental health so implementing right away!
That’s great.
Over many years I have heard from people undergoing chemo and radiation treatment - saying how much the system has helped - particularly to protect their mouths from mucositis and other problems.
I been on the system for 6 weeks- downloaded brochure and bought newest book. Sensitivity was gone in days, less bleeding in days, gums look healthier and teeth feel tight! I am going to dentist in a few weeks to get a benchmark
Wonderful.
I am so glad you found this information and have been able to see positive changes already :)
Same here. I had a tooth that was pretty sensitive and was concerned and after about 3 weeks it's feeling fine.
How is your bleeding now? Stopped? I have been nearly two weeks on this program, however one spot in the mouth which occasionally bled, bleeds every night. I hope it’ll stop soon. I get encouragement from others.
Thanks for the extra tips about teenager challenges, gag reflex challenges, and other oral health compliance challenges. I am personally aware of folks with autism issues that make oral health more difficult to address than neurotypical people experience. Figuring out how to pick your battles is a never-ending dilemma.
Zellies and xylitol are an amazing way to help in these difficult situations
@@dr.elliephillipsI love your videos and have learned a great deal of information! Bless you! I’ve been using xylitol After the last step using ACT.. Is this okay? Many thanks in advance Doc 🌹
I fractured my jaw as well as a few teeth in a motorcycle accident and my dentist told me I would need surgery and implants to fix it. I started Dr. Ellie’s routine and my jaw miraculously healed! No surgery needed! And a tooth I lost 10 years ago in a separate accident grew back as well! What a bonus!
Are you serious?
Thank you so much for this video!!! It explained all my questions and makes a lot of sense. So happy you have all the years of study and experimenting, and are sharing it with all of us. So GRATEFUL!!!
I noticed I was avoiding brushing my teeth and part of it was because when I spit out there would be blood. I had very sensitive teeth as well. Also if I flossed it was even my it actually was uncomfortable. I came across one of your videos and I purchase the items. I also bought your book and read it. About 3 weeks into using your system just once a day and I no longer have any blood that spits out or any discomfort. I do not floss. And I'm fully aware that you recommend twice a day. I talk for a living and my mouth gets to dry for me to give very much time at all in which I'm not drinking something. But my teeth feel so much better. My mouth feels so much better when I wake up. I agree it would be better to do it twice a day. But I am getting better and I am grateful for the information you provided.
It is really important to do the system before you sleep at night.
Maybe forget your childhood when perhaps there was a demand to "go brush your teeth".....
This is not the same.
Things are different now!
My system is nurturing for teeth - it is like a delicious spa treatment for them ..they yearn for this treatment.
Maybe consider your teeth as your friends - waiting for you to comfort and nurture them.
It is just a few minutes and you will see how they respond to this love and care :)
Congratulations - I'm so happy you found this information and I am ready to coach and support you!
@@dr.elliephillipsif I suspect I have cavities will I need to have them filled or will this system help heal cavities naturally? I suspect that I have them. Along with periodantal disease. I went to the dentist to try and have them cleaned but they said they couldn't do it at the regular office and wanted to refer me to a specialist. But I have a phobia of doctors and just going to ask about the cleaning was SO hard to do in the first place. It was so discouraging to be told I have to go to another new place and go through it all over again 😢. Should I go to the specialist or will your system help me? It seems that it should help heal the gum disease but what about cavities?
ordered all my stuff. going to try this. ty for the video.
EDIT: I posted this original comment 13 days ago. Here I am on a friday night coming back to tell you guys that this system seems to be working. I came here looking for answers because after years of untreated bruxism, acid reflux & horrible diet, my teeth have started to show wear & tear. One of my teeth has a chip in it now, and that has been incredibly stressful for me. I've been using Dr Ellie's system exactly as she teaches it here in this video. This includes the closys mouth bath, brushing with the toothbrushes and toothpaste she recommends starting from inner-back of the mouth to the front along the gumline, the yellow listerine and the ACT mouthwash. Also eating Zellie's after every meal (even after brushing at night b4 bed if Im hungry lol). My teeth are overall whiter, more opaque, the brownish plaque that was building up in between some of the teeth is disappearing, and my teeth feel stronger and are less sensitive to heat/cold. I can't undo the chip in the tooth (for now - hopefully i can get insurance to help me sort it out), but it's really helped my mental health to know that I'm doing all that I can do to fix the issue for now.
