Hi y’all, I appreciate all the positive comments under this video. Make sure you subscribe to my channel & let me know if You would like to see more tips on dental & oral health in general.
I have 2 questions for you if I may... Firstly, would it be possible for you to show the chart that appeared for a second @3:05 in the video which showed a number of foods and drinks along the top, above a graph showing their acidic/alkaline(?) values, and talk a bit about which to avoid and which to consume more of to promote good oral health.
Secondly, @ 4:45 you said that after eating anything it's best to try and clear as much of the food from the mouth as possible. How are you suggesting to do that as I understand from recent studies that I've read that it's not good to brush the teeth within one hour of eating or drinking because food and drinks soften the enamel on the teeth, therefore it's best to wait an hour before brushing. What is your advice on this?
@@c.marmion8430I doubt your questions will be answered here as this video belongs to Prof. Andrew Huberman.
Hello Doctor,
Can you please explain why some groups of people around the world don't ever use a toothbrush and have a healthy mouth environment?
@@shoegal7
I guess you're right.
@@ciuzdamm it says a lot when the uploader has even deleted my reply. Sneaky sneaky.
Hello doctor and dear followers, I would like to give you a concrete case verified by life. My great-grandmother, in Romania, 100 years ago, didn't have any kind of toothpaste or toothbrush, but she knew from her ancestors that after they finished eating, they dipped their finger in rock salt, without added iodine, and massaged their gums for 2-3 minutes, after which rinse with a single mouthful of water. At the age of 78, he had intact teeth, without ever having been to the dentist.
My grandma did the same. She used her fingers and salt. Kept her teeth till she died at 92, no cavities.
had a friend raised in the mountains, eating food they grew, she had perfect teeth even though she smoked, didn't brush, drank moonshine, never went to the dentist, never a cavity
Very cool. I also like that he/she was gender fluid.
This is interesting!
@@i.ehrenfest349 English probably is not their first language😅maybe .
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons of baking soda
1 tablespoon non-iodized salt
1 teaspoon of xylitol
10 drops of peppermint essential oil (optional)
I've heard peppermint oil is too harsh, kills the healthy bacteria as well. It's recommended to use anise essential oil instead. I do this myself.
@@life2essenceI heard 10W30 is even better... Jeez...
You could add alittle turmeric and grind a few cloves to a powder and add onthe list
great grand pappy had all the knowledge we are just now discovering??!?! Whoda thunk it? And we call ourselves "modern" and "evolved". Psh!
@@somewhererainbow4775Do you want to get yellow teeth?😅
My Grandpa brushed his teeth his whole life with salt water. He died with all his teeth healthy, never went to a dentist either, never had a toothache in his life.
Can you tell me the best dosage of the salt water to me ? Thank you
I bet he ate well too which these days we know too much and want to try it all right? LOL but it is good to know these things too about your grandpa!
how do you know she had intact teeth when she never was at a dentist?
Same way you would know what a dog was without being a vet @AlexisGitarre
There is no way that would work if he ate sugary food which feeds the Strep Mutans. He must have eaten good food.
6:00 Resume:
" use soft toothbrush,
floss correctly,
xylotol kills streptocoqus, it creates no acid,
use mouthwashes without alcohol,
baking soda (sodium) in water instead of toothpaste, swisch it, spit it out,
keep up daily, to 2 times"
A medal to you sir/madam...
@@Awesomediaeuand why would it do that?
Soft toothbrush fucked my teeth they don’t clean enough and baking soda is an abrasive thiese advices are esoteric dangerous i can tell you that,
@@Bambotb You aren't supposed to use medium or hard. It's abrasive on your enamel. Baking soda is perfectly fine.
@Bambotb Toothpaste is actually more abrasive than baking soda, so maybe it's the Toothpaste that's has ruined your teeth.
I know several dentists whose grown children and grand children have never had a filling in their lives, due to simply not eating sugar. In the 1970s and '80s while attending a large dental training hospital, we were taught that sugar is the vital ingredient in tooth decay. Without sugar, the bacteria cannot thrive and produce acid to decay the teeth. At the time, we had many human skulls of most races from around the world that were used for teaching and research purposes. Most came from India. Even though they had not cleaned their teeth, the Indian skulls had a full dentition of teeth with no decay because the individuals had not eaten sugar. We also had skulls from hunter gather people with worn down teeth from a lifetime of chewing tough and gritty food but they had no tooth decay either, because they also did not eat sugar. Nowadays, our western "experts" tend to play down sugar as the vital ingredient in tooth decay, blaming instead, the bacteria that feeds on the sugar, as Dr. Andrew Huberman does in the above video. Meanwhile, our multibillion dollar sugar and dental industries continue to grow, with one destroying and one repairing human teeth in a type of symbiotic relationship.
That’s due to the fact that the actual sugar alone does not cause cavities, but the bacteria feeding on the sugar does. So, in theory, as long as you keep the bacteria in control, you can live a life with sugar and have no cavities. Yes, sugar feeds the bacteria, but the sugar is not the actual cause of the cavities.
I'm 58 years old. No root canals. No receding or bleeding gums. Both of my kids have never had a cavity...both now in their thirties..still no cavities. We had a no sugar household except for vacations where they had whatever they wanted. Floss daily, Ayurvedic ( Indian herbs) toothpaste. Low pressure brushing, no electric toothbrushes, extra soft toothbrushes only. No flouride ever. We also never used fluoridated tap water.
Why do you not recommend electric toothbrushes?
Amazing! I am so happy that you actually found something that was beneficial for you and your kids’ teeth! I still remember that my experience as a kid was very different and I had all my upper and lower molars drilled and filled by the age of 14! I was beyond afraid of going to a dentist but my did not even consider to try a different dentist! I wish my parents would have been as knowledgeable as you are!
@@keinohrtini A lot of dentists did a lot of drilling and filling that was not needed because they were greedy bastard's. Happened to me.
Me too. I'd probably have all my teeth!@@keinohrtini
Same here! Been using Eucellus nutritional powdered toothpaste. Great stuff!
Coconut oil pulling works wonders. Coconut oil is antimicrobial and smells good. Also use baking soda and water as a mouth rinse nightly. Never will buy commercial mouthwash ever again. Key to good oral hygiene: Neutralize the acids in the mouth.
Excellent advice! Thank you!
Absolutely 🤝🏾🤝🏾🤝🏾
Easy to do and well said 💯🦷💯🦷
How long do you do the coconut oil for ?
I struggle to do it a long time
Swish a tablespoon of organic, unrefined coconut oil in your mouth for 15 minutes once a day. Set a timer. I coconut oil pull right after I drink tea in the morning. You could watch a TH-cam video for 15 minutes to occupy your attention during the oil pulling. Coconut oil pulling is a game changer. Keep trying it's worth the effort for a cleaner, healthier mouth. Good luck!
My now 90 year old aunt has only had one cavity in her whole life. After she filled that tooth she only brushed her teeth with salt and never had any dental issues again and she still has all her natural teeth to this day
Used fluoridated toothpaste until 25. All molars drilled and filled. Switched to a toothpaste based on calcium, phosphorus, and casein protein (MI Paste). Toothaches and cavities stopped. Still have to go to dentist when fillings break, or root gets infected. The most controversial thing about fluoride SHOULD be that it doesn't work.
I used Xylitol gum in the evenings after brushing and then bought Xylitol sugar. I ground the crystals in my coffee grinder and add 1/4 tspn to a toothpaste I bought called Eco Denta. This toothpaste already has 25% Xylitol, flouride free, and contains lime and coriander herb essential oils. Mixing the fine powder Xylitol with the squirt of toothpaste and applied on the teeth with a soft toothbrush is not only keeping the bateria at bay but seems to be whitening my teeth as well. I also massage my gum with the paste. I've managed to stop the buildup of plaque! It may also be remineralising my teeth!
Is this available outside the U.S.?
I also add xylitol to my nasal rinse, with the same healthy result- no more sinus infections, very clear breathing, and almost never a cold. Not even once a year.
Isn’t that toxic?
can you please include a link to Eco Denta. Thanks!
@@snclemmonsGoogle it………
Thank you so much. I've recently started using baking soda on my teeth to save me going to the dentist for mid year cleanings. Don't expect your dentist to support this. I've been using baking soda as a face scrub for decades. I started because the fine commercial scrub I liked went off the market. My face feels so smooth and silky. If I don't use about once a week my face feels yucky. I advise anyone who might try this don't scrub too vigorously in the beginning. I keep my baking soda in a plastic flour shaker (with a bit of rice to soak up any moisture) in the bathroom - very convenient.
Currently using baking soda with turmeric for this.
Same, same! Loving it!
Do you add anything to baking soda for facial scrub? How exactly do you do it? Thanks
@@CL-im9lk you can add turmeric or sour sop leaf powder for anti-inflammatory properties.
Turmeric can be messy though.
Hasn’t baking soda destroyed your enamels? I’ve read somewhere it causes it. If it hasn’t I’ll give it a go too
As a dentist I agree 100% with everything you said. You were extremely thorough explaining all the main points I try and hit with my patients. I especially like how you discussed the negative effects of alcohol and mouth rinses that contain alcohol. I didn’t see where you explained your title assertion that toothpaste is damaging to teeth. I feel that was a little clickbaity and I worked on me because I watched with the intent of refuting that claim.
This is stripped from the Andrew Huberman podcast with a very Clickbait title.
I can honestly say no Dentist I’ve ever seen his ever explained exactly what causes cavities. I am 43 years old and I’ve had dental problems my entire life, and I’ve only ever been told to just keep brushing.
I highly suggest watching Andrew Huberman, podcast for the full story from him. I am fairly positive that he has no affiliation with this TH-cam channel.
@@meganhopkins1497 I’m sorry that has been your experience. Part of the problem is an insurance system that pays very little for the diagnosis of disease, zero for educating patients how to prevent disease, and the bulk of payment for fixing disease. As you can see it took Dr. Huberman 11 minutes to explain this. If a dentist explained this to 6 patients per day that is working for free for 1 hour a day, which is impossible with the overhead costs of most dental practices today.
Yeah, this is just stolen content... so you really fell for it Doc - lol. I really appreciate your professional opinions you shared with your comment.
Why never ! one dentist ever never explained these basics ?? I learned these and more from a Female dentist here on you tube changed my routine day 1
Day two I knew it was working from results the way my mouth over night with a zylitol product over night. Ordered from a private practitioner .. Also when I was doing a very strict keto my doctor said whatever I was doing keep it up and my oral health wasn’t as a routine really strict I never floss sometimes I didn’t even brush before bed it was very erratic everybody has to find their own way but between eating properly not eating in between meals and being aware of the pH in my mouth at this point I think I know more than my dentist or at least more than anything to share.
Toothpaste damages your health due to the toxic chemicals it contains
We need more of these conversations! 👏
I love the short version summarizing key points. I recommend you produce more content like this.
He never said toothpaste damages teeth. Taken out of context. Part about fluoride toothpaste completely missing from the video.
Brilliant explanation.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 *🦷 Tooth decay is caused by bacteria feeding on sugar and producing acid, leading to demineralization of teeth.*
01:41 *🍋 Consuming acidic foods and drinks is not inherently bad for oral health, but moderation and pH balance are crucial.*
02:47 *🍺 Alcohol disrupts the oral microbiome and can lead to demineralization of teeth.*
03:57 *🚬 Stimulants like nicotine and caffeine can also negatively impact oral health by altering saliva pH and encouraging mouth breathing.*
05:06 *⏳ Intermittent fasting or extended periods without acidic foods can promote saliva pH balance and remineralization.*
06:02 *🦷 Proper brushing and flossing techniques, including using a soft toothbrush and gentle pressure, are essential for oral health.*
07:54 *🍬 Xylitol, a sugar substitute, can inhibit cavity-causing bacteria and promote oral health.*
08:49 *🚫 Alcohol-based mouthwashes can disrupt oral microbiome, while non-alcohol options are preferable for fresh breath without harming oral health.*
09:47 *🛠️ Baking soda and water can be a safe and effective alternative toothpaste, but hydrogen peroxide should be avoided due to abrasiveness.*
10:29 *🧂 Saltwater rinses can promote healthy mouth bacteria but should not be swallowed, used as a rinse only.*
Baking soda is too abrasive. If you are truly avoiding toothpaste just use water and a soft toothbrush.
Fluoride remineralizes tooth structure broken down by oral acidity. Frequency and length of your mouth exposed to acids (from actually acidic foods or carbohydrates) is the concern.
Don't swallow Fluoride.
I can not attest to alcohol being an issue beyond acidity.
The toothbrush, floss, oral irrigation (waterpik) are the main ways to combat demineralization, cavities and periodontal disease. Disrupt the biofilm!
Also, don't smoke. smoking is the worst thing you can do for your oral health.
I believe meth beats smoking Oooh but smoking meth that would be the best way to lose your teeth. Or playing hockey
Xylitol also gives me diahrea.
Bleeding gums also mean you're low in Vit C. Saurkeaut is the best source of Vit C
Sauerkraut
Many people falsely believe that they shouldn't eat fruit because too much sugar. Juice can be a problem for that reason, but fruit is a whole food that contains many vital ingredients for good health including vitamin C. Of course swish water afterwards. The same people who advise against fruit advise for supplements. Which makes more sense? A natural fruit, or a mineral from a factory? With low vitamin C you can get scurvy and lose all your teeth. Many foods have a little so you're unlikely to get scurvy, however as stated above, your gums can become unhealthy which can eventually lead to tooth loss
I had bleeding gums for a long time but it wasn't Vit C it was zinc I was missing.
@@Santa-ny1yp where to get zinc other than nuts ? We have to avoid nuts due to phytic acid...and did you stop your bleeding gum after consuming zinc?
Camu camu fruit has the most vitamin c on earth. Get the powder and use a 1/4 t and it is almost 500% of your rda
❤ really well done, thank you!
Great tips in here! 🔥
Stevia is not a sugar! It's a sweet herb. I'm a Herbologist over 30 years. Great video doc.
Dentist here:
It is correct, strep mutans needs to be transferred.
It needs the presence of carbohydrates to colonalize.
It is also correct that mouth washes with alcohol is damaging.
Proper tooth brushing: yes. 2 cm, 2 minutes, 2 times a day
Soft brush, aim 45 degrees aiming where tooth and gum intersect.
Floss before brushing to prevent abrasion and increase remineralization.
Xylotol fills the bacterias ‘intestines’ without giving it ‘energy’. Hence, starves out. Not necessarily kill them, most survives.
Bicarbonate has huge crystals. Used as tooth paste it is too abrasive. Can be used as a mouth wash to remove fungus. More than that yes, theoretically it is good to use.
Would a xylitol rinse (xylitol dissolved in slightly basic water) after brushing before bed help set up the overnight oral environment for the better? Or just rinsing in slightly basic water?
Baking soda rinses are also good for GERD, eating disorders and vomiting. Do not brush 30 minutes after vomiting, you can baking soda rinse right away.
@peterezzell3865 if you are rinsing away fluoride - no. Do not recommend rinsing after brushing with fluoride or any other mineral paste intended for tooth remineralization. Highly recommend a waterpik before brushing. You could add the xylitol to the irrigation fluid.
When i went to the dentist office years ago, i saw a vertical glass case with all xylitol products in it.
Xylitol was in allot of things and was the bomb on the market.
Xylitol can cause cancer. Xylitol can cause diarrhea.
My best advise is: dont go with the wave. Research it yourself, snd kniw what you are putting in your body and what it can do. The fda and some of these industries would love for you to make them even more money.
The fda will ok a product - apparently befor its total effects are even known.
Dint go with the wave- the wave is about the all mighty buck!!
Also dentist here, after a 15 year career I have pulled enough teeth from patients to forge a blade of bone. I call it Fangblade. I am wondering if you have done the same, and if you had, can we do battle. I live in Texas.
👍 Helpful. Thank you.
THANK YOU FOR THIS HELPFUL VIDEO
Thank you so much for sharing this valuable info Dr H 🙏
I learned the hard way about alcohol and oral health. If you are a heavy drinker (like I was) and keep getting major cavities and perhaps even root canals and tooth extractions (like I did) maybe think about getting sober. Haven't had a tooth problem since I quit alcohol and started chewing xylitol after meals.
Idk 🤷 if
I’m wrong or right. But suddenly my seizures just kind of disappeared. I’m not used to feeling normal! Anyway ever since I’ve gotten rid of gum that bled and pain in back molar 🦷 when eating sugar my seizures are gone
Oh this is hilarious. My entire family would get on me for not brushing my teeth twice a day, and sometimes not at all. I've never had a cavity. My entire immediate family have all had at least one cavity. My mom had a couple, and root canal. One of my brothers had several cavities, some teeth removed, etc.
I learned at a young age in my own that apples really worked. Before church on Sunday mornings I'd just eat an apple or literally scrape my teeth with my finger nails (cleaned finger nails).
My reasoning was all that stuff burned and I was just like, not for me 😅 So if it wasn't my tongue, or nails doing the cleaning, it was apples. I also didn't drink a lot of sodas. That's mostly how they got bad teeth. I got used to drinking water in elementary school. I ate a salad for school lunch, and would trade my chocolate milk for half a slice of pizza or whatever protein they had on the menu. Salad first, meat and idk really not much carbs. Not eating carbs is probably why I slept in class a lot 😅
39, still look like I'm in my early 20s. 0 issues. I do need to be more consistent with a tongue scraper. Keep things simple, maintain movement daily, and do things in order with purpose. Your body will thank you later. I can still do everything my younger self could. Pretty much everyone I know my age operate like they're much older. Don't stop being a kid. Mature, but find a way to still be a kid. It'll save you from a lot of stress, anxiety, and depression
Wowww amazingly explained
Thank you for the info ❤prayers
Good to hear he mentioned mouthwash. It's basically paint stripper. You need a balanced microbe biome in your mouth just like your gut. Mouthwash has also been shown to neutralize NO utilization in the body which leads to long term heart issues.
I go to the dentist every 10-20 years. Never had a cavity. I had my teeth cleaned once, but I couldn't tell a difference.
Interested in your daily dental regiment , please share… ?
Much love
Just never brush your teeth @@UrDominioN

Yes, very helpful, thank you 😊
Thank you great advice
Excellent a must watch for everyone. Thankyou.
You’re welcome, Thanks for watching!
I think some dentists cause cavities when they pick at your reeth with that metal hook
Absolutely 😑
Absolutely not. Enamel, the outer covering of the tooth, is the hardest substance in the body. Far harder than bone. Intact enamel is not damaged by probing (the picking at the teeth). They are checking for cavitations, holes, soft spots, decalcifications, and defects. If the dental explorer (probe) sticks into the tooth, they found an issue but did not create that with light hand pressure and a thin metal tool. That is greatly underestimating the strength of intact enamel.
Very quick, informative, to the point video! Ty

Omg Best video Detailing this 👏🏼💯
Needed to see this video Years Ago
Hey then you ought to check out the real person who produced it which is about an hour long not 11 minutes. This is just pirated comment content that's been condensed So if you're really interested in learning more about your teeth maybe hop on to Andrew huberman's real podcast
Best video ever explaining what is going on in our mouth . Thank you❤
Actually the best 1 would be the original podcast which is about an hour long not 11 minutes
This comments section is so helpful and full of great ideas - I can't wait to try!
I have gathered all the information from the comments sections, and im posting a follow up to this video soon stay tuned.
I've been really focusing on my dental care routine lately, and it's been paying off. Consistency is key, and I've found some great tips and products that have made a big difference
What's made a difference for you?

This is NOT Andrew Huberman's channel. 😂
I've had so many root canals, and cavities, and I currently have 3 broken teeth. I have followed my dentists' (multiple) advice for 40 years now. I'm so discouraged!! The only good thing is that I have done the complete opposite with all of my children.
A "neuroscientist" supporting fluoride and not condemning artifical sweeteners like aspartame. Just great.
EXACTLY! Lose Your Gurus!!!
Very useful.
Thanks Huberman.
I worked this out 25 years ago and had all my fillings taken out.
It took me years to change my body's systems and stop the rot.
In the meantime I learnt to remineralise the surfaces from time to time, and then the cavities would reopen later because I had not changed my eating and oral hygiene habits enough.
In the end it was all worth it. I still have no fillings in my teeth. I'm proud of it.
It makes me more resilient, and saves me a lot of time and money.
Praise be to God.
Back then I asked 25 dentists about their own teeth. None of those were cavity-free.
I realised they didn't know how to stop cavities.
The 26th dentist had no cavities but said that she didn't know how to heal her own teeth or anyone else's, and that she could only apply what she learned at dentistry school and so would not be able to help me heal my teeth.
I read Dr Robert Nara's book Dentally Self-Sufficient.
thank-you for video great info. i do mix my baking soda with calcium carbonate to make a paste with xylitol.
Thank you for someone finally addressing this issue. Much of these modern m outh care products are such a marketing scam.
I used baking soda for many years with great results and use salt as a mouth wash. About a little finger nail size of salt and a small sip of water and then swish for as long as you like. I def prefer Himalayan or sea salt. You can use the salt after eatjng as well. A very convenient mouth wash. I never floss and I also think my brushing technique helps, that is down strokes on the inside and outside. It acts like floss if done well. Amd i use a soft brush. I am now in sri lanka and use a tooth powder, they have many different types all with natural ingredients such as cinnamon. I have one difficentcy I would say. That is quite sensitive to citrus or anything else that is slightly acid. But swishing with salt immediately neutralizes it.
TY. Your video is appreciated 👍
"Do not, do not swallow high salt concentration fluid"... such a sad message.
Very good advice. I use a water pic, which I love. I use it twice a day, what do the dentists say about that? Baking soda really helps with plaque build up.
Xylitol sweetened gum has helped me avoid cavities significantly.
So do you just chew the gum for a while then spit it out?
Love xylitol! It helps stimulate saliva flow and starves bacteria! Kills pets thou so jeep it secured.
@@buckie48192swallow gum? Yes it is normal " chewing gum" . The xylitol (taste) does not last long. If chewing is not your thing, they also have mints to suck on.
Dr. Andrew, you have opened my eyes to so much! You’ll never know how much I appreciate it. I would love for you to explain why vaping is so bad… because vaping is filtered oil air. Maybe if you explain it to me I’ll believe you I follow you and agree with most of the things that you say keep up the great work please… thank you very much again. Much Love
Thank you!!
As a kid we used salt and baking soda for toothpaste and that is what I used until up and out of the house. I had a hack dentist put a bunch of fillings I didn't need in my teeth when I was young. My current dentist says I didn't need any of them.
Has happened to me, too. Always had perfect teeth, then when at 15 I ended up in a children’s home, I suddenly had 3 large cavities. I read later in a dentist’s magazine that there are unscrupulous dentists who will drill into healthy teeth, to make money.
Had it happen to me and my sister . I let the dentist drill part of mine . My sister got a second opinion and the new dentist told her she didn’t have any cavities. That was years ago and she is still cavity free .
It's hard for your current dentist to know you didn't need it all that time ago. They can't see how your teeth looked then and what was removed. But I have heard of some dodgy dentists doing this 😢
I hear you. My childhood dentist would clean my teeth and give us candy. I ended up with a mouth full of fillings by 14.
Vitamin K2 mk7 is a good start. My childhood was the time my teeth were destroyed by dentist who got paid to drill and pull not protect anything. The was 60 years ago.
Thank You🌸
Gratitude.
I make a paste with cold pressed coconut oil, bobs mill baking soda, real salt, peroxide, and a couple drops of peppermint oil. Works great
Please stop using baking soda. It's too abrasive.
@@AM.000 Baking soda has less abrasiveness than any other toothpaste… It has a 7 RDA value to be exact.
I add cloves powder and sometimes activated charcoal to the mix.

Finally someone with sense and a platform. I teach new dentists this. Sad
Thats why i started to use Dr Ellie's complete mouthcare system ..changed my life! Never going to a dentist again! Dr Ellie is on TH-cam and has incredible mouthcare system
How will you remove calculus?
@@AM.000 dr Ellie explains it all in her videos..basically the mouth wash you use will help create a less acidic environment so that your teeth get remineralized...it's worth it I've been on it since Jan!
I watched a video today and people were saying in the comments that Dr Ellie's dentist had recommended fitting a crown for her, something that she had mentioned in one of her videos. People asked her to elaborate but apparently she didn't. Also somebody mentioned that they'd seen on her website that Crest were her sponsor. I've bought all the products she had recommended but now I don't feel so sure about her. I might be wrong though.
@@marissakeynes2532 that is understandable...
And of course dental work may be needed if it's too late...her routine is more a preventative measure..as is any dentist..I had bleeding gums and sensitivity etc...this is the only routine that's helping me maintain the problems I was experiencing..I am.planning on going to the dentist for a cleaning in July and can't wait to see if they notice that my gum pockets have healed.
How come she was seen by the dentist periodically and her recent visit she was talking about possibly getting crown for her tooth in the back of her mouth. Hmm 🤔
Well done! You touched on everything quickly and concisely. I have been doing all this for quite some time and having spectacular results.
I have a jar of baking soda, Celtic Sea salt and Xylitol right on my counter to use as needed.
After a meal, I lightly brush and use a Xylitol wash, keep my mouth closed and avoid food and beverages for as many hours as possible to enhance saliva concentration and remineralization.
I also rotate toothbrushes ensuring I only use a toothbrush that has thoroughly dried. Bacteria don't like dry toothbrushes!
Avoiding antibacterial mouthwash not only helps with oral health, but it can also help lower blood pressure.
Thank you for sharing such an excellent and beneficial video.✨🙌
Great video❤❤❤❤
Addition: mouth washes are bad in general, regardless of the alcohol. Mouth wash kills all bacterias in your mouth, also the good ones. Using mouth wash over the course of years is associated with higher risk of heart disease and other fun stuff.
I cringed at Dr. Ellie Phillips’ complete mouth care system consist of 3 kinds of mouthwashes for people to use twice daily.
1. CloSys ultra sensitive
2. Listerine antiseptic cool mint
3. ACT Anti-cavity
Not if you make your own, consisting of only xylitol and warm water. Works amazingly as well!
So I thought I was doing things pretty well - until it came to the mouthwash. Bummer..... And even though Dr. Huberman was okay with most of the other things I do, I think I'm going to tweak my routine to his way. I have GREAT respect for so many of the things he speaks of.
Just water and sea salt is very healing as a mouthwash.
Thank you for that! @@bobclark6703
excellent talk ;)
I have relatives who used salt back in the day to clean their teeth and gum. They died with all of their teeth. Didn't have cavities and never went to the dentist.
This is Quantum! Thank you so much!
You’re welcome
Instead of mouthwash, chew two cloves (if you can stomach it!) at night for lasting fresh breath!
I do this once in a while, and it freshens my breath with the added advantage of reducing plague up build!
Good Video. I'll give it a go.
Huberman is a Living Legend
Following Dr Ellie Phillips’ system. Ditched the electric brush. Using xylitol etc. not getting professional cleaning. Not flossing.
Yeah, but she is heavy into mouthwashes and fluoride toothpastes, Crest.
Not flossing? There is so much gunk in between if you leave flossing for a few weeks. Unless mouthwash can possibly clear it all?
And stop eating sugar
@@BT-dl8kqshe is not crooked she talks about all the studies about xylitol
Why ditching the electric toothbrush?
A steak a day keeps the dentist away and that has nothing to do with throwing capabilities. Carnivore: fatty meat of large ruminants, salt and water does the trick.
Bravo!
Great video. It would be great to have heard about oil pulling and its effectiveness on dissolving the sticky matter that hold biofilms together. Also, the use of licorice root and how it too kills Strep mutans.
Tea tree oil is also a good option and it’s anti bacterial
As a mouthwash, I use just plain warm water mixed with a few drops of clove essential oil.
You should check out Dr. Ellie Phillips who talks about using clove oil...it can actually have very adverse affects.
I make my own mouthwash with a base of xylitol Stevia and the baking soda form of vitamin C, sodium ascorbate … Then I add a little grapefruit seed extract liquid for preservation and my preferred essential oils, and a large glass bottle with distilled water :-) this was a great breakdown to help people understand the mechanisms behind these chemical and biological reactions. Thank you!
Just curious about your opinion on oil pulling using coconut oil. I do oil pulls with about a full teaspoon for about 10 minutes before bed. Really love the way my teeth feel after the pulls.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate in most toothpaste can cause painful mouth ulcers. My hygienist just recommended baking soda and a 50 percent mixture of 3% hydrogen peroxide to water.
I agree with you, I do the same . SLS ist always bad, avoid it also in shampoo and soap
I had mouth sores after being sick as a child, my dentist recommended diluted peroxide 25% to 75% water, followed by Cepacol mouthwash which was very soothing. I still do this when things don't feel right.
I swish & brush sometimes with coconut oil. Good Earth toothepaste is great & even has colloidal silver but its pricey.
Thanks
I love your info and watch you often but with all due respect and being a dentist of 35 years I’d like to clear up something. The every 6 month visits has zero medical background! It was adopted from a toothpaste commercial in the 40s or 50s. Science has proven a number of times that the bacteria in the mouth damages the periodontal tissues if it is not removed within 90 days.
So the biofilm must be disrupted by your dental team every 90 days. Very healthy people can possibly go 60 months but in my experience very few new patients at least are very healthy.
Every 6 months is an insurance scam and nothing more.
Again I love your material and I think you did an awesome job I would add the use of a waterpik when considering gum or periodontal health. For many people I would recommend that over flossing considering that the floss primarily cleans the contact point between teeth and the convex surfaces of the curvy convex shaped roots.
Just my thoughts
Great job all in all
So, chewing gum with xylitol after meals could potentially help?
Yes look up dr Ellie Phillips; she is a retired dentist and makes her own brand of xylitol gum which you don't have to buy but she is an expert on xylitol; she will site studies.
@sunnyromano6862 thanks, I'll check it out.
I dissolve xylitol sweetener from Amazon in water and just swish and spit throughout the day. I put half cup xylitol in a cup and a half water.
The Spry Xylitol toothpaste recommended is loaded with silica, which is highly abrasive and removes the enamel on your teeth. It's the third ingredient listed after purified water and glycerin. I sent it back immediately.
Andrew - can you do a video about how to whiten teeth at home (if you haven't already) please? It's too pricey in the UK. Thank you.
Dentist Ellie Phillips recommends a nanohydroxyapatite toothpaste called Boka for remineralization. She recommends against flossing. She says she hasn't had a cleaning in 45 years, and her teeth are dazzling.
If you don't floss you should be using an oral irrigation like waterpik. You may still need cleanings as calculus accumulation is different person to person. Some get none, some need cleanings a few times a year.
I thought she recommended Crest Anti Cavity?! Hmm. 🤔
Interesting. Do you happen to remember where she recommended it and maybe provide a title or something so that I can search for it? I guess links would not work here in the comment section.
I watched quite a few of her videos and in the comment section of one of them she got asked what she thinks of Hydroapatite in toothpastes and she answered a few month back (not so long ago) that she didn't recommend this ingredient and that it was also not allowed in the European Union. Would love to find out the context and the reason behind these two different recommendations.
how is tea tree oil toothpaste? Thanks for the video it was excellent.
Since it kills microbial bacteria, then I cease to wonder if the beneficial bacteria can survive? I know its powerful cuz I clean with it
thanks
I oil pull. Take 1 tbp of the following mixture (3 tbp of Coconut oil, 1 tbp of Xylitol, 4 drops of tea tree oil)
I MISS MY FAVOURITE NEUROBIOLOGIST & OPHTHOMOLOGIST, BRING HIM BACK
PLLLLEEEAASSEEEEEEEEE
PLEASE BRING BACK THE HUBERMAN LAB PODCAST
I MISS IT SO MUCCHHHH
wtf you saying? his last video was 3 days ago
He never said toothpaste damages teeth. Taken out of context. Part about fluoride toothpaste completely missing from the video.
I'll be sure to visit my local dentist next time I need neuroscience advice too
Sea water is great!
No matter what way you look at it. Dentists can only survive if your teeth don't...
Read "food and physical degeneration" by Weston A. Price, 1939. Ancient civilizations did not need floss, toothbrushes, or dentists etc. They had perfect teeth, strong good fitting, broad jaws. They exactly knew what to eat, with lots of vitamins, by ancient nutritional wisdom. That changed rapidly after they got in contact "modern" civilization, eating refined sugar, white flour and refined seed oils. Within one generation that deformed jaws, caused carries and God knows what kind of other degeneration. That scientific research was carried out throughout the world, very well documented and ...... Swept under the carpet. Just like so many other health knowledge that has one thing in common: you can't make a lot of profit with it.
Ask your dentist if he or she knows the research of Weston A Price. Mine didn't....
Book title Nutrition and Degeneration great information
Calcium, magnesium, plus vitamins D3 and K2 were essential components of those early mineral - rich diets. These key ingredients are important for teeth re-mineralisation
Oh wow, my dental health has got worse and i couldn't figure out why. Despite improving my brushing, using a water pic, yet I now have bleeding and they dont feel good in my gums. Bever had any cavities. I am on prescribed stimulants for 4 yrs. But I am certainly not on enough to make me mouth breath like an addict 😅 and actually by having my meds im more likely to be organised enough to properly do my dental hygiene (rather than quick rushed brush as I am running late!!). But good to know acidity incr potential by stimulants. I've recently started xylitol (this week), mints, chewing gum & waiting to start mouthwash too.
My mom taught us to brush our mouth. Sides, roof, tongue, as well as teeth and gums
