@dr.elliephillips do you do xylitol at the end after ACT? So that's the last thing in your mouth before bed? Thanks for the great content🙂
@@Laroux52 I never used to recommend this, but I am beginning to think that for some people it can stimulate an even better response. It is obviously not an essential component part of the program as I have had decades of success without adding this step, but I think it may be helpful. I recommend people try adding this xylitol mint if they want to - and observe how it feels to them.
@@dr.elliephillips in your original recommendation, of not doing xylitol immediately after ACT, how long should we wait (after completing the protocol) before we have the mints?
I have an allergy to eucalyptus in listerine. Would you recommend anything else to replace it?
You are a total scam artist!!! You cannot remove tartar at home - you cannot reverse gum recession at home as any real dentist and dental hygienist knows.
Finally, a system that works. This woman is a miracle and a blessing.
I appreciate your kind words. 😁
Totally agree 😊
Absolutely agree... After 50 plus years of seeing various dentists and chronic dental issues, using the complete care system, within a week my teeth feel on track!
@@greer-lr2lg
Okay I hear what you're saying. It doesn't sound as sincere as it actually is. Thank you for your perspective.
I was always extremely cynical and so I have actually been attempting to make an effort to communicate my opinions. It might be that they do come off a tad robotic. I'm working on it. Again, thank you for your input.
@@dr.elliephillipsWe love you, Dr. Ellie! I just began with your care system, and I have ordered all the products from your website as support and as gratitude. I placed my whole family on the system as well. Hopefully, it’s not too late for me. 🙏 Many blessings to you and yours. Thank you!
... I love how she genuinely is happy to help in the comments section ... very rare reaction ...THANK YOU
Haha! I’ve answered questions like these for over 50 years! It’s my pleasure to help motivated & interested individuals.
I have been doing your program for the past week and already notice a significant positive improvement. Words can not describe how thankful I am for your information that you provide freely. Thank you, and God bless you.
The system has made a difference for me in the last 8 weeks. I can’t wait to see what my teeth and gums are like in 6 months.
How is it working for you now? Are you still doing it? Do you still recommend it?
@@theforgedoneI've been using only xylitol mints after brushing my teeth before bed. Doing this alone has been remarkable in what has occurred in 6 weeks. I'm 63 and I felt my teeth were deteriorating rapidly but, all that has reversed by almost completely cleaning stained and rough texture I was feeling. I thought she was an old kook but I think she's really on to something simple and easy...
Really?
I have been using your mouth care system for two weeks now and the transformation in that short period is astounding. The tartar has lessened, my mouth feels cleaner, and my gums have already stopped bleeding. You are such a blessing. Thank you!!!
I just went for a cleaning (1 year since my last) and there was literally nothing to scrape. My hygienist said my teeth were “immaculate”. I literally thought I’d never be able to get away with not flossing due to my teeth being tight, but with your system I have! Thank you, Dr.! 😬😬😬
Thank you so much for your comment. I wonder if you explained to your hygienist that you were not flossing - haha!
I tell my grandkids this is one time they are allowed to lie if asked - because I know they are likely to be scolded for not flossing - regardless. of the beauty of their oral health...which is so ridiculous :)
Thanks again for taking time to share your story.
@dr.elliephillips Should Xylitol gum with glycerin be avoided?
So excited to hear this! I also have tight teeth and flossing was so difficult that I gave it up anyway. I trust Dr. Ellie's system, but I've only been doing it for a few weeks. I'm thrilled to know that even us tight-teethed folks have hope!
@@LindaQueLeenda About the same. Looking forward to the results!
@@mcbc5189 yes it should, explained why in her book I think 🤔
This woman is a godsend. A true healer. Thank you!
Your sick
@@1008tantan …I was, but not anymore thanks to Dr. Ellie! By the way, that’s “you’re” not “your.” You’re welcome!
Thank you Doc. I wish I had paid more attention to my teeth earlier. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Its never too late - I encourage you to at least consider the regular use of xylitol/Zellies mints to enhance your mouth microbiome.
I have just started the complete mouth care routine, and I am giddy about the results. In fact, I haven't been this excited for a long time. I am definitely going to use the original Listerine, since I do have existing tartar. It hurts to have the hygienist scrape it off. I'd much rather remove it gradually and painlessly.
this is why I love dentistry , thanks for the aid
I used to scrape calculus from between my lower front teeth every two weeks because it would build up so fast. I’ve been using her program for a month now. I love how good my mouth feels all the time and no more build up to scrape off!
I’ll never go back to my old ways.
Can’t wait to see what my dentist says at my 6 month check up!
I tell everyone that will listen to me about your system.
Thank you Ellie🙏🦷🪥
I recently ordered your complete mouth care system as well as a couple of Dr. Plotkas toothbrushes. Since I started using your system, my gums aren't as sensitive and I find that when I run my tongue across my teeth it feels like I had my teeth cleaned at the dentist. My mouth just feels better overall. I''m 71 and wish I'd known about your system earlier in my life.
This system saved me a ton of pain in just 2 weeks when I went for a cleaning and hygienist said I had much less plaque than usual (which had involved lots of flossing and brushing). Excited to see the next check up. Helpful tools to employ this system are mini hour glasses for timing the rinses and brushing down to the second and shot glasses to pour the mouthwashes into to rinse. I always disinfect my toothbrush and tongue scraper after use with a little Listerine too because it will kill pretty much anything.
She did not include scraping the tongue. I'm not sure this is necessary.
Listerine is a SUPER bad idea. It destroys your healthy mouth microbiome.
@@lee9604 Yes, true, and actually I saw another of her videos in which she said she did not recommend scraping the tongue. It can cause damage.
I hear what you're saying! I receive it with open heart, I'm going to do as advised... ❤ may his Grace and mercy be poured out on you with all abundance
So much pain again. Thank you for giving me new insights. ♥️♥️
Hi Dr. Ellie,
In August 2023, an old silver filling fell out from my #12 premolar. I filled it with paste from a temporary filling kit I bought from Walgreens. The dentist told me the tooth had fractured and had to be removed. But there was an active infection, so I had to take an antibiotic for two weeks and wait for another week before the appointment to remove it.
During the visit, I asked him to check on a painful #3 tooth. He saw much recession and said that was causing the pain. He suggested I use Sensodyne toothpaste, which I did. It was around this time when I found you on CZcams and your compelling "Complete Mouth Care System."
I tried it, and I liked it, especially when you said I no longer need to floss.😁 The tooth was extracted, and when I saw the dentist a couple of weeks later, he saw I was healing well. (Probably better since I started to use your system.) Because of scheduling at the dental school clinic, I have to wait until March for an implant. In the meantime, my #2 molar had fractured, and it was extracted on Dec 1 and it also healed well.
When I told the dentist and the faculty instructor about your system, they were skeptical. I challenged them to watch your CZcamss and see whether they can refute your claims. Speaking of claims, you made some in this "Tartar Removal At Home and How To Prevent Tartar" episode.
Question: The dentist wants me to get a cleaning. When I told him I may not need it because I use your system, he said there may be tartar or calculus left over from before I started your system, which should be removed. Does he have a valid point? If so, should I get a cleaning? I know you're generally against cleanings for good reasons, such as it will remove or upset the biofilm and injure the teeth
I eagerly await your reply. BTW, why are my teeth fracturing. I'm 72 yrs old. Does age have to do with it?
Talk to you. And keep uo the good work.
Alton
The older you get, the more brittle your bones / teeth become.
(Obviously, do your own research first)
But I’d recommend supplementing with (triple boron) 3-6 mg per day, which will strengthen bones and teeth
Continue using this system and you will not need any cleaning. Also, for the teeth fracturing, you can try the Keto or Carnivore diet. My wife has been there and today she is greatful to people like Dr. Phillips, Dr. berg, Dr. Ken Berry. She is a great health with beautiful teeth that she never had all her life.
When we found out about Dr. Phillips, it was right after she just spent $7k at the dentist only to have tons of tartar a few months later. Now she has none and all her gun diseases are cured, no more bleeding.
@@veganterminator9054@veganterminator9054 wow wow thanks for the good advice! I am not a person who wrote the loooooong comment above but passing by I happened to see ur comment and searched BORON, which made me learn. Thanks a lot🙏👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much for your videos! I'm 3 days into your protocol and already notice that my teeth are whiter.
Hi!, I can't find the protocol, can you help me?

Thank you so much for this information!
Hello Doctor Ellie,
I hope you and your family are well.
Yesterday, my best friend recommended watching your videos. I started watching your videos, and I am very impressed with your knowledge. I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you.
I am a Turkish who lives in London, England. Unfortunately, I couldn't purchase the products from you, but I bought Colgate FluoriGard Daily Rinse Mouthwash and Listerine Essentials Cool Mint Mouthwash. I ordered Crest Cavity Protection Toothpaste, Regular and Xylitol Chewing Gum. Tomorrow, I will buy UltraDEX Daily Oral Rinse Original as well.
I just wanted you to inform you about the influence of your talks. "The words can be sharper than any two-edged sword and cuts as deep as the place where soul and spirit meet."
I wish to meet with you one day in a seminar in London. Bye for now!
Thank you for this, I’m from the uk and was wondering what I could get instead of the ones listed
Thankyou , just started listening .
I’m doing it 2 times a day. . Will get original listerine. Thanks.
Dr. Phillips your amazing 💓🙌💓 thank you for all you do for us ✨ I just started using your complete system and I’m already feeling better 🙌 thank you thank you ❤️🩷💛💛💜💙🩵🤍
Thank you for being concise with this valuable information👍🏿
I do believe the system is making my teeth feel much slippier and therefore cleaner.
I just ordered the listerine original online and bought several since they keep going up in price. Although the label does not include the word antiseptic I noticed that the ingredients noted on the bottle are the very same as the one labelled antiseptic so I hope and assume it is the same. Same colour and no noted flavouring.
Dr Ali thank you very much for all your great advice! Just wondering if we use your complete system should we still use the waterpik or not?
I think a waterpik is fine providing you do not have periodontal pocketing.
If you have periodontal pockets - I suggest you get them to heal first before you use a waterpik.
are there any videos about how to brush around receded teeth. I always feel I do not know how to brush around the recessed area ?
Lister... is a magic drug! 😊 I currently have the flu and had a very painful sore throat. My doctor prescribed antibiotics for me, but I don't want to take them. It would destroy my biofilm again. I gargled with Lister... and my sore throat immediately improved. 🥰 ... (If you use product names, the comments are often not published 👎)
Gargling reduces your viral load and gives your natural immunity a chance to fight off viruses.
Same goes for the coronavirus.
3 times a day and usually it reduces recovery time.👍
Listening to the videos two days in a row nonstop. Where have I been before??? Golden information! Thank you so much! Does everyone here purchase all the products one by one? I can’t find the complete kit on the website; it’s sold out. Is there another website where I can purchase it?
You can buy all products yourself on other resources, they aren't unique
Dr. Ellie, can you confirm that you can use your mouthcare system also with silver fillings? I have read online that chlorine dioxide as used in Closys can react with silver fillings and form methylmercury which would be very toxic.
My concern has always been the use of peroxide that can release mercury from silver amalgam filings. I believe also that sulphur compounds - released by periodontal pathogens can also cause a reaction. I have never seen or considered how there would be any connection between Closys and silver fillings.
Hi Dr. is your complete mouth care system ok for someone with porcelain crowns?
Hi Dr Ellie, I love your teachings and benefit from them a lot. I live in NZ your complete system is so very expensive to buy here. I am wondering if Xylitol can be used to correct the PH after Listerine, I am doing it this way, and feeling good!
Have you explored buying from Grant at Healthy Kiwis? He has all the things I recommend. healthykiwis.co.nz
@@dr.elliephillipsCould you please put the link up for Australia. Also, as I have a lot of trouble with my phone, could you please provide a phone number. So as I can ring and purchase.
Quick question. How long will it take to get rid of existing plaque, calculus, etc? I was thinking around a year.
I have been plagued with tarter and bacteria for decades. One month ago, I order Dr. Ellie's Complete Mouth Care System. The difference is amazing. I don't like all the chemicals in these products, however the tarter and bacteria are worse. Way worse. So I am very excited and now religiously do the system 2x per day with mints in between. I like the Xylitol so much I purchased a bulk bag of 1400 mints. I use them, my wife uses them, and I have some available for guests and friends too. Thanks Dr. Ellie!
What's the name of the mint? Where did you buy? Thank you so much
@@ponytail1995 im thinking all these replies are bots. Too many saying literally the same thing…?
Dr. Zellie's mints. I bought them directly from Dr. Ellie on her website.
I am not a robot. lol@@Steve-ul8qb
@@Steve-ul8qbI personally know 10 people who use the system and have achieved great results. I don’t think they are bots
I’ve been using this system for a week now and my teeth and mouth has never felt so clean
Same here. 👍
It amazes me just how easy this system of oral care is, too. 😊
Appreciate your sharing without trying to sell people something. A rarity in todays world. Offering paid solutions while sharing freely IMO means people would be more willing to buy your products.
Obviously you didn’t watch the entire video.
Thank you so much for information
How do you feel about drinking kombucha?
Thank you,
Thank you so much Doc...clarification please. I go to the dentist 2X/year for cleaning. However, it's been about 3 months since. So, if I start this protocol, are you saying that it will remove any tartar build up that's taken place since my cleaning...sort of like hard water filtration system does to the house pipes?
Yes, that's what she's saying. She also said in the video above that for most people, it will take about 6 months on the protocol to get to the point where you're not developing any plaque & tartar.
Your teeth are lovely. Have you had any laminates or veneers? I am thinking of laminates for whitening since I don't want to damage with white strips. Thank you for your content.
Dr Ellie is strictly against artificial teeth whitening; although she has stated that the extremely rare occasion (for instance, in the case of your own wedding or some other VERY special occasion) shouldn't do any long- term damage.
She has been following her own procedure, she says, for over 45 years and has not even had a professional cleaning since that time. Therefore, it's pretty safe to assume that she also doesn't have any orthodontic appliances whatsoever.
Assuming all of that is true, her teeth are so white and nice- looking because she protects and maintains her enamel.
I really need an answer here please ive been messaging my gums ever since u mentioned it on your bootcamp but the thing is i dont think my technique is correct how i do it is i go in a line across my upper gum line with a toothbrush and that toothbrush has toothpaste in it so my question is am i doing it right? And do i go in circles instead of a line? And do u think i should continue messaging my gums with toothpaste?
Which products do you all like best, I just got done with 6 months of chemo and it was horrible on my mouth, any suggestions would be appreciated thank you
Thank You Dr. Phillips.... you changed my life during the last one year. My teeth are much healthier with your holistic approach to keep them healthy... especially the use of xylitol, which is excellent. 🙂
Delighted to hear you have enjoyed success.
Interesting video, thank you. I go to the dentist/hygienist 2x year since I was very young. I’ve had a few cavities in college but not since. I did have chipped tooth and root canal. I suspect low stomach acid due to hashi hypo. I thought listerine was bad for NO and ph balance bcz acidity as you said. I know what doesn’t work. When I was young my dentist recommended listerine with electric toothbrush only, no tooth paste. Bad breath, dry mouth. Also oil pulling was useless, I had more plaque than ever.
I recommend a system that will work - but it involves using all the products I recommend and that takes some commitment.
It all depends what you are looking for :)
DrEllie.com for a free downloadable booklet and more information about how to get the correct proucts.
thanks doc for your system, just a couple of questions:
1. Some dentists say that using mouthwash daily such as Listerine to kill bacteria can alter the biota of the mouth, allowing candida to flourish. Is that true?
2. Here in my country I cannot find ACT Anticavity Fluoride Mouthwash. What are the essential ingredients I should look for in a similar one?
Your questions are directly related to one another and both are answered in the video. Drawing from all of the videos of hers that I've watched across her channel, I've included additional details below that she didn't explicitly spell out in this particular video.
1. Dr. Ellie answers this in this video... she's clearly stated why it's not advisable to use Listerine on its own if you want the results she's teaching you about. It's similar to what the other professionals you're citing are saying. The others are just not following up to tell you HOW you can still use it. Dr. Ellie is recommending that you CAN use Listerine but advising to ONLY use in a specific way. You have to give it a specific role as part of a routine. Because of a low pH level, you cannot just use it on its own and go about your day if you want good oral health -- that's essentially what ALL of those dentists are telling you. Even water can change your pH level and not create optimum conditions in you mouth... this is why xylitol is recommended after drinks and meals. But in the cleaning routine... it's why you need to follow up a strong mouthwash like Listerine with something that will neutralize it and make your mouth more hospitable to good bacteria.
2. Dr. Ellie also answers this in the video... The "essential ingredient" of ACT that is critical for this process is that ACT has a lower pH level than mouthwashes like Listerine. So, Listerine has value and does what it's needed to do for that 30-60 seconds that you're using it but Listerine has a lower pH than your saliva (acidic). What Dr. Ellie and other dentists are saying is that your routine shouldn't end with a highly acidic mouthwash like that or you risk biofilm weakening and allowing candida to flourish. So the point of ACT in this system is to end your cleaning with a mouthwash that has a higher pH level (alkaline) than your saliva. Ending with ACT not only gives you a final coating of flouride but has a pH level which will neutralize the Listerine after it's served its temporary purpose. You'll find that many other dentists preach this as common knowledge but again, they don't tell us as many details about HOW to use this information in a practical way. Dr. Ellie's system is about telling you why and what to do with the information.
In other words, Listerine is fine to use... AS LONG AS you use it in this manner; neutralize that acid after 30-60 seconds. And with regard to the purchase of ACT, it doesn't necessary have to be this brand IF you can find another mouthwash with flouride AND which has a similar pH level of 6.5 or above (this range is slightly acidic to neutral all the way up basic/Alkaline -- you want to aim for neutral or alkaline but if only slightly acidic is available to you it would still be better than one that is highly acidic).
With a quick Google search, I PDF documents from dentists. Search for terms like "Rinse pH Values" or "Mouthwash Acidity Index". There's a bunch of printable PDF documents that list the pH level of common mouthwashes. There are a number of mouthwashes on these lists that would be great replacements for ACT in this system, if they're in your area and affordable. From there, you have to make sure those mouthwashes have an active ingredient of flouride as ACT does and you would be good to go.
It may be worth mentioning that if one has crowded teeth, this can make the entire process more challenging. Doesn't negate the value of the system, just means it can be harder to reverse plaque and improve dental health.
That's what I thought before I tried her system. I have very tight teeth and rarely have had to use floss - this works!
@@lindalor9284 how long did it take? It actually removed the plaque to the point that you didn't have to have them professionally cleaned?
@@KatarinaS. I've only been doing this for a couple of months, I'm waiting until 6 months have passed to see my dentist again. When I did use floss to get rid of a popcorn kernel between my teeth, I tried flossing between my other teeth. There was no plaque at all. My teeth are smooth and shiny, no plaque is sticking to them.
If you have high blood pressure mouthwash will make it worse. Plus in any amount fluoride is not ok.
What do you do if you think you are getting yeast infection in mouth? I have loved using your system, but I’m pretty certain I am developing thrush on my tongue.
Can someone tell me if it will help from the tartar that is hidden under the gums? What products should I use? Or I need to clean at first at dentist and after use system?
They have just discontinued the original listerine in the uk , I’m so sad about that. The reason is apparently there was poor sales . I’m using cool mint but was going to use original because like you say more effective for plaque . Thank you for all your advice dr Ellie ❤
Yeah in germany too, its no longer available but I think they renamed it because I have looked up the Ingredients and it matches some other product
Nice, does it affect the root canal teeth ..
SMART tip
Your system will get rid of all tartar? I have been using your system for a few months at least and some did fall off, but idk if it will all fall off eventually, or if I should go get a deep cleaning or something for tartar?
I started using Dr Ellie's system 3 weeks ago and have already noticed a big difference with my teeth. I have very sensitive teeth because I grind and clench at night only sensodyne gave me relief but my teeth looked lackluster and dull. I'm in the UK and finding original Listerine is proving very difficult but am buying it online. I follow Dr Ellie's instructions to a T and have no sensitivity and my teeth look brighter only after 3 weeks. I think this will be a life long protocol for me now.....if only we could get Zellies mints in the UK!
Hi Dr Ellie
I used to have very white teeth, but over the last while, they have started to yellow. I think it is due to me eating large quantities of foods like blueberries.
Is it possible to reverse the staining naturally, or does it need to be done professionally, or is it not reversible at all? What would you recommend? I'm feeling very self-conscious and distressed about it.
Thank you!
Please check on oil pulling and other home remedies. Which I do like hydrogen peroxide moth rinse with only 3 percent. Etc.. For the last 10 years. Hope you can try and improve your issues. 🙏
@@yellowrose803 No! Dr. Ellie says both coconut oil pulling as well as peroxide will kill all the good bacteria in your mouth, which you need to make the necessary beneficial biofilm. Please don't recommend those things to others.
@@SunrayStar I cringe every time I hear people recommend their favorite oral care products to others they do not know.
The problem is that hydrogen peroxide may be OK in the mouth of a young man or a person with plenty of healthy proteins in their saliva.
Unless you are aware of the differences in gender and saliva, it is really easy to send people down the wrong road.
I appreciate your comment to help in this case.
I try to answer as many comments as I can - but I cannot get them all.
I appreciate you. Thanks so much! Ellie
@@dr.elliephillipsDear Dr. Ellie, I really appreciate YOU!
@@SunrayStar even lister... kills all kind of bacteria (I read in many articles) .... so I find ur statement contradictory against oil pooling and hydrogen peroxide
Hi Dr. Phillips,
Do you have any recommendations about how to treat and prevent staining? I don’t have much calculus, but my stain is so bad I have to polish my teeth every month or so. Any ideas on what might cause this or what I can do to slow the rate that stain appears? I only drink one cup of coffee in the morning and I don’t think that’s the culprit as I’ve done that for years and this is a relatively recent problem. Thanks!
Ellie addresses this in many videos. The key is in a healthy microbiome, the protective biofilm she mentions in this video. This will also protect you from staining. Avoid whitening products that damage your good bacteria, pretty much all of them do, as far as I know.
Get a Sonicare.
I apprecaite the comment already made - and what I have discovered is that many people who get staining are not using a sufficiently resilient toothbrush.
Check out the brushes that I recommend and please consider allowing them to dry for 24 hours between uses. DrEllie.com
Another great video! Thank you!
All this talk about calculus is getting me in the mood to solve some differential equations.
Antiderivative bud
I, too, am a high school teacher and have also taught Mathematics at tertiary level. I am curious about Calculus and wonder if it would eventually lead me to dy/dx the whole procedure with my oral health.

This lady makes sense, but the complete system is hugely expensive here.
Hi I follow your cleaning . Now me eating my molar next to the wisdom tooth broke to the gum , just a quarter , but the nerve is expose even so that I don’t feel anything, actually I have the piece of tooth that fix like a puzzle perfectly . Why my dentist says that she need to remove the tooth or do an implant ? . Can she just fill or glue back the piece that fix perfectly ? Thanks for the time , best regards !
I’m allergic to the SLS in crest, what other toothpaste would you recommend?
There is no other toothpaste that will work when used as a part of this system.
It is the combination of the specific products that produces the results.
I encourage you to consider using the system as a whole.
I konw lots of people who had SLS sensitivity (and for good reason as they messed with toothpaste formulations in the 1980s and made some horrible toothpastes that caused a lot of sensitivity in many people's mouths. Crest Pro-Health was one of the worst of these pastes and has made a lot of people nervous of Crest toothpaste).
If you use the EXACT products that I recommend - and use the toothpastepaste after the Closys rinse and then wash it off with the Listerine and ACT.....I do not believe you will have any reaction.
If you are battling any kind of dental damage or disease, I encourage you to try this for a week or two - because if you don't - you may be missing the only way I know to stop your dental problems.....Please let me know what you discover.
Drellie.com for a free downloadable booklet and more information about the products you need.
I suggest you may want to consider getting a "kit" - so that you have the EXACT products the first time - or order through the Amazon links on my website. DrEllie.com
I have to say that the system that you have in place with the xylitol mints did not work for me
I continue to use the xylitol gum and mints, but honestly water flossing was something that has been very helpful for building up plaque
Thank you so much, I bought your Complete Mouth Care System on the 3rd of April 2024 and I am looking forward to the Cavity on my front root canal healing. I will be traveling for 3 weeks in June, what shall I do as I can not take with me all the Care System.
Fill up some small bottles ..
Hi Doc! this is all amazing… you are a breath of fresh air to my dental care. Hey quick question … but Ill be doing all the steps and get your course and everything … but I was just about ready to get Bioclear to close some gaps that might gums. I should say my receding gums are creating. Could you give your feelings regarding bio clear treatment for gums ? Tnx so much! You are a Godsend.
I thought my teeth were rotting from the bottom but it turned out to be calcium deposits . I’m going to have a deep clean when a spot opens up. The dentist said no cavities despite not seeing a dentist in 20 years which was amazing to her
If you are interested in making this appointment easier - I would advise you to start using my Complete Mouth Care System before the appointment.
Xylitol is a great way to loosen plaque and improve oral health - your dentist should know about it.
Do the beneficial effects of xylitol wane after years of use? That is, does xylitol eventually stop being effective at killing the "bad" bacteria in the mouth (say, because the bacteria develop resistance to it)?
Xylitol does not kill bacteria! 😉 Xylitol feeds the good bacteria and helps with remineralization. 😊
Dr. Ellie, what about the store brand of the exact of the Listerine original? And could it be replacing for the national brand?
The only difference is that the store brand is a couple of dollars cheaper, but the ingredients are exactly the same including the percentage of the formulas. I've checked and read them.
I have used the original Listerine for over 40 years. I would not consider using the store brand personally.
There are just some things that are worth a couple of cents more. I would prefer to see you reduce the amount of Listerine that you use each time if economy is your primary goal.
One HUGE infomercial for your system....
Why run a commercial for something that is free of charge?
She actually isn’t selling anything. She calls it her “system” because she’s recommending over the counter mouth care products to be used in a very specific way and in certain steps. If you watch more of her videos she’s the most generous genuine person I have seen on the internet these days. Check out a few more of her videos or go to her website to read about the wisdom she is sharing for free
How quickly are you able to see signs of deminishing plaque/calculus when using your complete mouth care system twice daily.
I've read Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye and highly recommend it to everyone. It answered a few important questions for me.. I still have a couple more. One is... I have uneven teeth so even at the end of the 5 min routine I'll still see food on my teeth. Should I use a little pic like interdental to get it off my teeth? or brush more? or leave it be? Thank you so much.
I can’t believe you can still have food after brushing. Are you using the brushes that I recommend?
@@dr.elliephillips yes, Dr Plotka's. My teeth are crooked in some places. I have food on them all day from various things I eat. Almost always between the front 2 teeth but other ones as well.
Hi, wouldn't brushing prevent the formation of the film?
Is it normal for the gums to bleed upon start up of this program?
Original Listerine no longer available in the U.K.
Hi Dr Ellie. Listerine original has been discontinued in the UK, what would you recommend instead to help remove existing tartar?
Import it through mail forwarding services
Hello Dr. Phillips,
Thank you so much for your wonderful dental education. I’m 59 with severe gum recession. Can I use Xylitol mouth rinse, Fluoride- Free Xylitol, or Xylitol with Fluoride?
If you go to my website at DrEllie.com you will be able to download a free booklet and also read more.
There is also an oral health video bootcamp with 14 videos that explain more about each of the products I recommend ( including how to use xylitol and why I recommend the specific fluoride products in the system). DrEllie.com is the website where you will find all this.
Dr. Ellie, I have been using your mouthwash system for several months now but I have a problem with the Listerine (bought the Cool Mint): My mouth felt super dry and horrible when I used it after brushing (with the Crest)..and even after using the ACT at the end. I had to stop using it. So after brushing I use nothing. Do you have any suggestions?
hello. I have SLE and Sjogrens Syndrome. I have a bottle of fake saliva. Keeping tartar away is a nightmare. I use whitening toothpaste and scrape them myself as I have no dentist. Will this help me?
Where can I buy the products in Spain?
Will this method help antibiotic stained teeth whiten again
Hi, would you have healthier version of the mouth rinse and toothpaste?
Hi this video is for those who want to have a healthier mouth. BS about healthier mouthwashes and toothpastes you can find elsewhere
I have been using your system for about two months and my mouth feels clean. Question: I have read that using mouth wash kills the good bacteria as well as the bad and can lead to high blood pressure. Can you comment on that? Thank you...
This is an Internet myth that came from a study that shows that prescription strength chlorhexidine can be damaging to oral biofilm.
Anything that washes your mouth - even water or tea, will temporarily change a nitric oxide or pH reading in your mouth. This was the problem with the other study. It was a temporary effect that you will get from any liquid. - even a drop of Evian water. To be scared of all liquids in your mouth.= mouth washes is ridiculous.
People often imagine Listerine is a problem, and that is very unfortunate, because they are missing the incredible value of Listerine as part of my system.
I have used my system for over 40 years and enjoy wonderful nitric oxide levels, low blood pressure and Perfect oral health ! ☺️😁👍
in the UK, we have Listerine Cool Mint and Cool Mint Zero - would the latter be the better choice considering it contains no alcohol (it does contain fluoride though, unlike the Cool Mint)? Ingredients: Aqua, Propylene Glycol, Sorbitol, Poloxamer 407, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Eucalyptol, Benzoic Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Methyl Salicylate, Thymol, Sodium Saccharin, Sodium Fluoride, Menthol, Sucralose, Aroma, CI 42053, Contains Sodium Fluoride (220 ppm F ¯)
Use alcohol version only
Dear dr. Ellie, could you please recommend any substitutes for Act and Closys? In the region where I live (Eastern Europe), I was only able to get Listerine and Crest. I'd love to follow the complete routine according to your recommendations. Please help.
Ultradex Original, Colgate Fluorigard
@@LoyolaMan thanks a lot
Dang my Cool Mint 2 x 1 liter bottles just showed up... I can believe that Original Listerine would be better at loosening existing plaque.
I'll be starting this program this week when everything arrives- my teeth are sensitive, my gums are starting to recede, and I'm really hoping this will help.
There are videos on here about oil pulling that make gums grow back. One recipe I found is crushing cloves into sesame oil, strain.
explanations must b expanded but clear. more detailed pls. tnx
All details are already provided in video description
@@LoyolaMan None of those details explain the how-to part and the video doesn't either.
@@Iceman219 ask your grandchildren to have a look and explain it to you
@@LoyolaMan Ask your mom if she can teach you how to read properly
I have been using your complete mouth wash system since almost 2 months . But since three days my upper molar start aching . When I chew and put too much pressure on the teeth while eating it becomes sensitif . I got nervous and stoped the whole procedure cause I thought these products were too strong for me. Since I stopped yesterday, my tooth came back to normal. Maybe it’s a coincidence. But I am continuing with Xylitol. I don’t know anymore if I should continue with the full mouth wash system. Please Dr Ellie, what do you suggest me to do ?
If you are using the correct products - then there is no way for my system to cause a tooth problem of any kind.
If you want to check on the products you are using - and ensure you have them correct - drEllie.com has a link to the products on Amazon.
If you wish to learn more - there is also an oral health video bootcamp that explains how these products work and especially why I recommend xylitol and the fluoride products that are a part of the system.
I experienced a similar discomfort in the same area though not when chewing or pressure. I knew after watching many of Dr. Ellie's videos and reading the myriad of comments that her system is rock solid. So, I deduced something else was the culprit and sure enough realized my sinuses were tender. This is proven to cause a toothache! I then recalled in one of Dr. Ellie's video she mentioned Xylitol nasal spray to treat sinus infection. Try it.
I cannot get ACT mouthwash in Central Europr except for importing from the US for an exorbitant price. Is there any alternative to ACT please?
So true as I've been using Listerine and only the Original could help getting rid of brown discharge from my #3 root canal and stops the gum irritation. Long story but keep it short and sweet here. Despite similar ingredients shown, not sure why only Original works better.
Can we use Lysterine Original mouthwash with PFm Crown like does that cause any abrasion on our porcelian/metal layer of crown?
I also have porcelain crown and did not see any abrasion from using Listerine but your question should be directed to Dr. Ellie and hope she would answer@@g51661
Is there any other toothpaste that will work besides Crest?
Where can i find Xylitol?
Interesting video. Thanks.
The odd word you say sounds English. Did you move to the US at an early age? 😉
I've been using the system for a week but I've also been doing oil pulling once a day. The difference in one week is staggering. The tartar behind my lower front teeth is 70% gone already. Use her system and look into oil pulling.
The doctor is not recommending oil pulling
not seen the original listerine in my local shops here in UK. Plenty of Cool Mint
Hello Dr. Please let me know how to get your mouth care system in South Africa.
Feel free to sign up on my website as I will be addressing this problem. Also in a few months I’m going to ask people to share what they have found match my products around the world.DrEllie.com
Do any of the items she mentioned tons harm or breakdown and dental work that’s not your own teeth? Like cement, glues, metal, ceramics, etc??????
Is there any way to do this without using fluoride ?
I've been doing the protocol for 3 wks, nothing different so far. My teeth are healthy but I have calculus behind the 4 bottom front teeth and I DONT want to get it scraped off. I feel like that would just leave pockets behind.
I hope this system will get rid of the tartar for me.
how is it going so far, did you get any results?
Same for me. All good except for the bottom front teeth calculus
Thank you for the wonderful video Dr. Ellie. I have a question, can you suggest anything else if I am just too afraid to use fluoride? I want to get the benefits but feel it might not be good for my health. Thank you for any alternative idea you can give me
This is what I’m wondering too because I’ve been doing so much research on the oral Microbiome and not upsetting it.
Yes, and I hope that Dr. Ellie gets back to us on this as it would be very helpful to know!
Stop this BS. Doctor is using sodium fluoride products for decades with proven results.
I’ve seen dentists like Mark Burhenne that avoid fluoride, recommend toothpaste with nano hydroxyapatite (what our teeth are made of) like boka and risewell.
Thank you. I’ve been reading about that type of toothpaste too.
I can’t find ACT mouthwash in the UK, is there any substitute for it?
It’s now on Amazon
I wana to book an online appointment with u mam what is the procedure
