As a child I always had caries at every dental visit. I grew into a teenager and began using Trident with Xylitol. The next dental visit I had 0 caries. The dentist asked me what had changed and I told him I was using Trident gum to prevent bad breath but avoided the gums with sugar. He told me about Xylitol and how it prevented caries, after that I always had a small piece of Trident in my mouth, when I was awake, after that and the caries problems had all but disappeared. Then sometime in the 80's or 90's the taste of Trident changed to sickeningly sweet. I looked on all the packages of sugarless gums and Xylitol was still there but now also had every sugarless ingredient ever created. Mannitol, maltitol, saccharin, aspartame etc. These added ingredients are not only sickeningly sweet but they also trigger IBS, nausea, diarrhea and leave bad aftertastes in my mouth. Needless to say, but I had to stop using Trident. Now my teeth are rotting again. I so wish Trident only used Xylitol again.
Wow Great share! I’ve listed some brands available worldwide in the description box below! I’m sure you can find some good quality gum or mints locally. Best place might be your local health food shop or order online!…. definitely worth it! 🦷✨
@@DOLEWDREW probs won’t do much All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Due to our sin. Hell is the punishment .“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8 KJV but Jesus who is God. Came down to earth as a man lived a perfect life never sinned people got jealous of him got him convicted on false charges then he died buried and resurrected Remember how I said our sin is why we can’t go to heaven? The only thing that can wash away your sins in the blood of Jesus “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” Roman’s 5:8-9 KJV So to get saved is super easy “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV Salvation is a free gift by faith alone. You can’t earn it by going to church, getting water baptized, or by any good thing you do. “For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.” 2 Corinthians 7:10 KJV Then you just have to feel guilty and sorry for being a sinner and repent for being a sinner. Do you feel guilty for being a sinner? If you do then there’s just one final step. “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9 KJV Pretty much all you have to do is tell God out loud with your mouth that you believe the gospel. That’s it super simple. You MUST mean it from your heart to work. You can pray something like this “dear God i repent as a sinner. i believe jesus is God, who died, buried, and ressurected, so his blood can wash away my sins. so i only trust in the blood alone to save me not my good works. Save me from hell in jesus name i pray amen” If you meant it your saved!
I agree ! I’ve listened to many of Dr Ellie Phillips videos, I bought her book, I purchase her ZELLIES and I’m on my way to the best oral health care in my life ❤… keep spreading the good news 😊
@@tomnatural can you tell me how long before I see any difference? I’ve been doing it for about 21 days doing xylitol swishes and also eating the mints after meals.
You can make your own xylitol mints using granulated xylitol and peppermint oil. Just melt some xylitol in a stainless steel pan on a low heat are drop of peppermint oil and pour into baking paper to cool. Bash into fragments and you've got some delicious mints.
I’m from the states. I have been using Dr Ellie’s entire program with the Xylitol for 8 months now. It’s amazing. It works my gums are growing back and so pink and healthy
Please, where can I find a step by step program instructions to take care of my teeth & very recessed gums (& bone loss & many teeth losses). One video of hers said to use many different rinses… Listerine & ACT etc … & I can’t afford all that & there seems to be some controversy abt those & she didn’t mention xylitol in that video - maybe it’s old & she’s changed her program… ? I purchased xylitol & am mixing an 1/8 of a tsp w some coconut oil and pulling it thru my mouth for a couple minutes after brushing. I’ll also start massaging my gums. What else do I need, or do you recommend that I do? Thank you!
I’ve been taking xylitol mints several times a day now for several months and I’ve noticed a big different which is incredible. My front teeth were going translucent - well now they are almost fully back to solid glossy white! It seems the rest of my teeth look healthy and white. And I think my gums are getting better. Last dental clean I was told they look really clean and healthy. Prior to that I was getting told I had so many issues despite eating incredibly clean diet for years and being so healthy conscious. The whole concept we can actually remineralise our teeth is exactly what I needed to believe - it’s real and it’s easy!
That’s great to hear! I wonder if in your case it was literally that the minerals for remineralising the teeth needed some stimulation from the Xylitol. Hearing your experience is very helpful. Thank you for sharing! Do you use any supplements? Do you eat meat? Don’t feel you have to share, I’m just collecting data 😊
Same here!! I had 4 teeths with to the bottom receded gum, started swishing xylitol 3 months ago boom 2 of the teeths right back full and pink, and the rest are on their way.
Try combining xylitol with virgin olive oil or cod liver oil, it remains on teeth longer and enters gum pockets, especially at night after cleaning teeth, another tip wearing rubber glove, using index finger massage gums at the root of each tooth. What you are doing is like weight training, your getting a pump so the fresh blood encourages growth of new cells. Best of luck
@@DebraLunsford-m1d Oh thanks for asking, really what you are trying to do in your home care is practice as close to any credible dentist office procedure. Dr Ellie Philips suggests doing this gum massage using a "clean specific toothbrush", hence why I suggest using the same method only difference is with a glove, plus they are easy to clean and you can simply shift your index finger to another finger insert should it develop a hole. SAVE YOUR MONEY SAVE YOUR TEETH.
The bad bacteria strephtococal mutant that cause caries cannot digest xylitol, so by taking xylitol you are starving this bad bacteria and it will die... Decay can be stopped and in some cases repaired as the mineralisation will strengthen the tooth... Dr Ellie explains this in her videos
Incorrect, it is worse for strep mutant than “xylitol not being food” as it could simply feed on whatever else you are eating. Xylitol kills strep mutant because it has 5 molecules of carbons instead of 6 which makes strep mutant repeatedly spend energy absorbing it without being able to generate energy from it, in a loop until it runs out of energy and dies. Eat xylitol => eject => eat again the same molecule => eject, repeated until it dies of exhaustion (energy insufficiency)
That’s not even correct… SM can most definitely metabolise xylitol, it even prefers it to regular table sugar. It cannot produce acid from it to demineralise the teeth though. Xylitol also reduces the rate of replication of SM.
I ve done a strict carnivore diet for close to five years now and stopped brushing my teeth every day I clean my mouth every day but stopped brushing .my teeth are hard and seem to be regenerated also I used to have sore joints but now I’m pain free good health comes from within consider your teeth as a reflection of your overall health and address your inner health and it will carry over
Interesting, I’ve been on carnivore diet for about a year, but my teeth were collecting a ton of calculus, it was horrible. Since then, I’ve tried Dr. Ellie’s program and that is helping with the calculus but teeth are still stained. It has been a mistery to me. I feel great on diet otherwise. Apparently some people have that side effect. 😢
I picked up the use of Xylitol from Dr Ellie Phillips but did not want to use the mouthwashes she recommends because of the chemicals. Also I'm in the UK and some of the products are not available in the UK. I use ecodenta toothpaste has Xylitol in it from Holland & Barratt which is really pricey for a toothpaste! £7. However, as I'd built up a voucher of £15 I was able to reduce that down when I ordered 9 of them! What I do is have Spry Gum at bedtime containing Xylitol. During the day I add ground down Xylitol crystals and mix it into the toothpaste which contains only 25% of the sugar. I brush with a very soft brush making sure I don't scrape the tooth enamel. I also swish either with salt or Xylitol. Also massaging the gums helps for minor receding gums. I've noticed my teeth look stronger/remineralised and whiter. I'm not looking for whiter than white teeth as this is unrealistic! So far so good. But bateria definitely can be a major problem for oral health and Xylitol is a miracle solution!
Thanks for sharing your experience! Yea gum massaging is a great support. I actually have 2 brushes, one super soft for gums and one for teeth. I’m also cautious about the mouth washes and toothpastes. I still opt for natural and rinse with a Himalayan sea salt solution after. Good luck!
@@Itz_Brooklyn101 i massage my gums w the brush as its soft and do sweeping motions w it and also with my finger, as my gums do love the massage(i just finished a paradontitis laser treatment)
Put a few spoonfuls of xylitol in a saucepan, put it on the stove and let it melt. Then make small to medium drops on baking paper or silicone molds for cake decorating and let them dry. You can then weigh out your daily dose and take it with you in a small box. I hope this helps.
I live in Australia and have been using xylitol toothpaste for a few years and it comes from America. So you can source it online from Naturally Sweet and go to Dental section from the menu. They have mints and gum, and bags of xylitol as you have there. Everything you need! I use the non fluoride toothpaste, and the gum and now the mints. I just had a filling fall out last week and it cost me $824AU for 30 minutes work! I tried veganism 8 years ago for one year and I think it wrecked my teeth. Now after 6 years keto I am nearly a year on carnivore and not looking back! Best thing I ever did for ultimate health. Thank you Tom for sharing your experiences!
xylitol toothpaste… thanks for the connection to naturally sweet! wow that’s big bucks for a filling, goes to show how important it is for us to find our health, as the unhealthy become prey! Diet is such a huge topic and very personal. I really respect everyone’s decision. For me I think it has a lot to do with the quality of the food, the soils and the naturally occurring vitamins and minerals that our body needs from organic food…. not to mention how stress can effect us! Thanks for the share!
I have been vegan for the past few years and at my last dentist visit he said my gums are fantastic and to keep doing whatever I’m doing. I told him I hadn’t changed anything except diet. Putting aside the moral and sustainability issues, keto and carnivore diets aren’t healthy so I wouldn’t go there. Perhaps you were drinking something with sugar or maybe juice, I don’t know but I don’t see how you can blame eating a vegan diet. That’s an exorbitant cost for a filling. Perhaps you should consider extras cover from private health insurance. Thanks for the information about Naturally Sweet. I’m in Australia too.
I follow Dr Ellie's Total Mouth care system and I am located in Australia. Brushing with non-fluoride toothpaste is no good if you rinse with fluoridated tap water. Best to rinse with Listerine then ACT anti-cavity mouth rinse avoid the tap water all together. I also use Unflavoured Pre-Rinse - CloSys before brushing which balances the pH in the mouth.
I can't believe how well this has worked for me. I bought Xylitol mints and took two at a time 4 times a day. I had a small brown cavity at the top of my front tooth right on the gum line. I only got the mints a week ago and already there is a noticeable difference. The cavity is so small now that i think it will be gone altogether in a few days. I'm so happy because i have had so many fillings over the years and now i have a means of not having any more. I take the two mints and hold them in my mouth for a few minutes.
@@tomnatural It is great. It is amazing that this isn't common knowledge. The cavity at the gum line on my front tooth is almost closed up again. Hardly noticeable at all now. It will go completely i have no doubt.
I use Dr Ellie’s 4 step protocol….3 months. No tartar on my teeth at all…. Went to the dentist for a cleaning and they couldn’t believe that. I had no charger on my teeth.
Cheers as I use Xylitol as my sugar and also after brushing I rub it in and add a touch of caster oil. My teeth were falling out as I had very bad gum disease and now I don’t. My dentist cant believe how much my teeth and gums have improved.😀
Thank you for sharing. I just got diagnosed with gum disease and receding. @Aangel452 can you please share the steps on using castor oil and Xylitol together or one after the other?
Hey friend I just heard of Dr Ellie's protocol and decided to give it a shot. I have concerns about step 5 the final fluoride rinse, how do you feel about? I think anything in moderation is ok but I'm concerned about the frequent use of it. I know you're not supposed to ingest it but it makes me think using act rinse twice a day surely will increase my exposure to eat and inevitably a little will get ingested as you saliva forms and you swallow. I have decided to give it a shot still, but i'm very careful to make sure I don't swallow after 30 min as best I can. Do you think this step could be stopped entirely or maybe only done once a day, or Once a few days? How important do you find the entire regimen? I certainly have good hopes about the xylitol.
@Miquiztli_tochtli my family and I are doing great with Dr Ellie protocol. My elderly Aunt, 93 years old, has been doing the complete mouth system since January. She is feeling her mouth better than ever before.
@Miquiztli_tochtli the last step, the ACT, is very important because, according to Dr Ellie, it strengthens the enamel of the teeth. Also the listerine is too acidic to remain as the last step in the mouth. The different rinses and toothpaste work together. Best wishes to you.
I also discovered dr Ellie recently and I bought 2 kg of xylitol 😂 my teeth are so smooth now, never any plaque. And I started brushing with crest and the rest of her mouth care system.
All of the products in Dr. Elle's system are available in the UK. I buy most from Amazon. 1.Toothpaste: Crest - Amazon. Seems expensive but the tubes are twice the size of the usual UK sized tooth paste tubes. Oral B 1-2-3 is a good alternative and is available through "on line" pharmacies. 2. Altra Dex - Amazon . This is the rinse that is used first to take away the acidity of the mouth before brushing (I forget the US name but it is the same formula.) 3. Act- This is the final fluoride rinse after using Listerine. Its name in the UK is Colgate FlouriGard. Available in Waitrose and perhaps other supermarkets. 4. Xylitol mints and gum - amazon I have found Dr. Ellie's system excellent having no further problems with sensitivity, much reduced plaque etc. Good luck with your dental health!
There mixed results. I think it works well for many but for some the chemicals are too harsh. If that is the case I recommend taking a more natural approach like Dr Dome in Germany. A functional medicine practitioner and biological dentist, his approach is holistic and natural. Thanks for sharing!
Altra Dex? I thought is called Ultra Dex. It can be found at Boots, Tesco and Superdrug. I don't know about any Altra Dex though. Only Ultra Dex. I buy the one that says "original" on it (as this was suggested by sombody else's comment under one if Dr. Ellie's videos). Thank you for the Colgate Fluoriguard in the role of Act. I will keep an eye on it for the future. Right now I have been using Dentyl instead of Act, just because it looks cool (is bi-phasic) and contains Xilitol). I am not sure if it works as Act should work. It's just something that seemed better considering the situation.
@@eeaotly Yes, I am afraid it was a typographical error. The Original version is also correct which I also neglected to mention! I did see Act was available through Amazon in England but I would rather buy Colgate FlouriGard the version of Act for the UK market, even though it is made in Poland.
@@douglasmcleod7074 Poland? That's new. Most of the mouthwashes I used (or I have read the label in the shop) are made in Italy. Only a couple of them were made in UK. Thank you!
Hearing you speak brought me hope. My upper right side is all root canals and crowns. I’ve been in tears over this. Let’s be honest, it will never feel/chew the same on that side. I just started Dr Ellie’s system and I’m hoping to save the rest of my mouth.
It goes deeper than teeth right!? These patterns of thought connected to these physical issues can be so challenging. Never give up hope 🙏 I’ve had to make some very challenging choices to help my teeth. I believe some of the most supportive changes are in diet and nutrition. The Xylitol helps for sure but cutting out sugar, refined carbs and eating a whole food diet is super helpful. If you are not eating protein I highly recommend taking a quality amino acid blend (BCAA’s) to give the body the building blocks it needs to restore structure. I’m not a fan of dr Ellie’s protocol for myself because my body only does well on nature. It may work for you though! Another good biological dentist is Dr Dome. He includes natural supplements which I absolutely agree with. Wishing you the best results! You can do this! Get your power back ✨
You might like or need to go more natural. dr Ellie’s protocol might not be right for everyone (including me). I only use the Xylitol technique. One example of a biological approach to healing teeth comes from a German biological dentist called Dr Dominik Nischwitz - I like his work and you may find some answers there. He is in the Biohacking world.
Dr Ellie’s English equivalents: Ultradex Original (do *not* add flavour sachet); Oral B 123 toothpaste; Listerine Cool Mint; Colgate Flouriguard. Before I found out about this I ordered Closys and ACT from US via Amazon- costs a fortune. The toothpaste you can get in Poundland, Listerine Cool Mint in supermarkets, other mouthwashes from Boots or Superdrug. Definitely does the job.
At the moment amazons selling 3 tubes of the crest toothpaste dr Ellie recommends for £12.65 might sound expensive to some but I was spending way more on other toothpastes.
I have pretty bad gastric reaction to xylitol when ingesting it in gum, etc. However, I just noticed that I have it the toothpaste I've been using (Springjene). I do not get a gastric reaction from the xylitol in the toothpaste. Is that a sufficient amount according to Dr. Ellie's protocol?
I love Pur Mints (the 'u' has 2 dots over it) Tangerine Tango! A xylitol mint that's not minty. You have fine looking teeth, I'm glad you're working to keep them.
I see in the comments people asking how long should I keep the Xylitol in my mouth for, well Google search says minimum of 1 minute too maximum of 5 minutes. If you were to time how long it takes for these Xylitol mints to dissolve then you can better quantify the timeline. Let's be honest here your mouth bacteria both good or bad doesn't know if you are sucking on Xylitol mints or swishing around your mouth Xylitol crystals. The only thing that matters is the frequency exposure and quantity
In the states, money is the primary motivator. Sad, but true. This is why Dentists are not widely promoting this highly effective protocol. No surprise that Dr. Ellie was educated outside of the states.
Yea it’s sad but true. There is a rising group of dentists that take a more natural approach. In the states Dr Ghandi is a good source. Its the biological approach and I love it!
@@tomnatural Tell me Tom, which products are you able to obtain over there in England? Each product is so vital, I can't imaging doing without any of them.
order from childhood trauma that destroyed my teeth and confidence along with it. I hate going to the dentist and can't afford it. Don't know how this video got to me but i'm going to get some of these products and give it a go. Thanks for making the video
Trauma work can be super helpful for how our biology is affected. I’ve experienced a very clear connection in my life. For that reason I a big fan of mindfulness and such practices as meditation, forgiveness and the development of consciousness. Your welcome and I hope it helps.
I was doing Dr. Ellie's method, then I found out fluoride is bad for the thyroid gland, and I have a thyroid condition. I also stopped the method because I also discovered that mouthwashes destroy nitric oxide; and the test strips don't give an accurate enough result of how much nitric oxide is in the body. Testing in a clinic is the best way to know for sure how much nitric oxide is being produced.
I total agree! I am only using the Xylitol information from the course. None of the other product including the crest toothpaste agree with me. The toothpaste burnt my gums. I’m using a homemade Himalayan pink salt mouth wash, coconut oil pulling, natural toothpaste, and low carb, low sugar diet with whole foods and whole food vitamins to restore my body.
the important point is the nitric oxide, no nitric oxide causes health problems and most of it comes from the mouth, so doing anything in your mouth can put that at risk, ie mouth washes etc. I wish I knew a lot more about the process.
@@wally6193You can produce naturally and abundantly your N.O simply by humming !! while doing this, I notice that the vibration in the sinus increases when you press the lips together .. there is breath exercice here on youtube with humming. ,😊
Sugar has it's place, just not in your stomach. White sugar was found decades ago to heal deep skin ulcers that would not heal. It worked perfectly for my Aunt who had been treted for months for an ulcer on her leg. 2 weeks of sugar and it started healing.
There are studies showing Xylitol (a sugar found in nature) to be supportive for the gut bacteria as a prebiotic. However, these days we can find proof for everything so it’s just got to suit the individuals belief. I’m sensitive to unnatural products and so far Xylitol has not upset me in the small doses I take.
Don't be frightened to eat sugars, fruit, carbs - just swish your mouth with some mineralised water, and maybe drinking some milk or a bit of cheese afterwards will help. A caution with xylitol; it's a sugar alcohol and if used too much it ferments in the gut and can cause endotoxin issues. However i do use a couple pieces of flavoured xylitol chewing gum and incorporate the 'mewing' action after consuming carb foods (the brand i use is xyloburst) btw the oxidation of glucose creates carbon dioxide and oxygenates cell tissues. Eliminate toxic seed oils, pufa dressings and industrialised seed oil inflammatory foods as they will inhibit glucose oxidation. When brushing just dip neem leaf oil (which is anti-bacterial/plaque) with bi-carb soda on a toothbrush or i use a MISWAK plant stick which has inherent anti-bacterial properties and nulls plaque build up. Finally i finish brushing with calcium carbonate powder or eggshell powder on my toothbrush to strengthen the enamel. If flossing, then avoid commercial brands as they contain 4ever chemicals - phthalates/oestrogens 🍻
Be very frightened of fruit, sugar and carbs, you'll end up with inflammatory diseases, auto immune diseases, diabetes, heart disease, and overgrowth of candidiasis!
Thanks for sharing this .Im trying to convince my daughter about this and they don't believe me. My little grandaughter has lost the enamal from one of her baby teeth and I'd like her to try this and see if it helps her.
I’ve found it to be particularly helpful in conjunction with removing processed sugars. And especially using it after meals. The easiest way or maybe more appealing for children could be mints or gum if they are at a safe age. Make sure they are clean products. I’ve posted some options in the description of products I use.
It’s said to be best after every meal and drink. But a minimum of 10 12 grams a day was shown to be most effective. Taken in smaller doses 5-6 times a day.
Dr. Phillips also has practices that help. I use xylitol crystals, Pur gum and Zellie's mints. I brush twice a day with two different brushes so they can each dry 24 hrs. Keep them outside the bathroom so bad bacteria does not colonize on them. Also brush for two minutes with a focus on the gums inside and out side the teeth. You are then stimulating stem cells in the gums. She recommendeds soft Dr Plotkas or Preserve toothbrushes (both from Amazon) if you can get them. They have characteristics that help the gums heal, but not vital. I am looking for an alternative to Listerine, as it feels too harsh for my mouth, but haven't found an alternative I trust yet. I'm using the Listerine for less than a minute. I've been on the program six weeks though. I was facing a $6000 bill (in the US)! I'm not getting that work done. I'll get checked out again at 6 months. I'm feeling very hopeful!
Thanks for sharing your experience and some tips. Very helpful. I agree on the listerine, many biological dentists say sea salt in water can be a good mouth wash. I’m not recommending it but that is what I use.
Hey brother! I think it can help but going deeper into an alkaline diet, organic or chemical free living, hydration, exercise, mindfulness and so on all adds to the bodies ability to regenerate. A very personal journey but I would say Xylitol does help used in the correct way. Thanks for your comment
My teeth are also suffering after years of eating lots of fruit, lemon water and probably too many carbs and not enough minerals. Then made worse by improper dental hygiene. I brused well at night and morning.. but now I know so much better. I love learning from Dr. Ellie's videos, but don't do all the fluoride products she recommends. Right now what seems to be working for me is following whatever I eat with a raw vegetable to clean and mineralize my teeth, usually celery. I brush my teeth and gums with a hydroxyapatite toothpaste which also has xylitol in it, or sometimes I just brush with coconut oil. I follow with a mouthrinse which also has those things as well as silver and some herbs, or sometimes rinse with salt water. Then no eating anything after that before bed. My mouth feels super clean and my teeth feel stronger. Oh an I use xylitol gum occasionally too. Also waiting for tooth regenerative technology which is definitely out there but not readily available. I'll post a video someday if I'm ever able to heal my existing caveties naturally 😅
Awesome! Yea I’m the same I don’t use the chemical products either. I have to stay natural to be pain free but it does work for some people. Healing is very personal isn’t it! Thank you for sharing. The toothpaste sounds interesting, I’ve heard it a few times now. Defo make a video of you have wins!
@@tomnaturalI didn’t use fluoride for years and was very wary of the products Dr Ellie recommends. I did a lot of digging and realize that she recommends sodium fluoride and not stannous fluoride - very different. I also thought back to my childhood dentists who were still healthy active and seeing patients into their 70s and 80s and those men were up to their arms in fluoride, mercury etc. So flash forward, I am doing her program using everything she recommends including the toothbrushes and my gums and teeth are dazzling, strong and beautiful. I have one cavity near the base of a tooth and it is filling in! Remarkable results. My husband is super skeptical but saw my results and ordered Dr Ellie’s books and Zellie’s mints and gums.
Thank you for sharing your story ! I hope you and your teeth feel better. Similar to what you mentioned, I fast a lot and eat plenty of fruits. I had no teeth problems throughout my life till 3 years ago when a small cavity appeared. Just a month ago I got my first teeth filled and feeling so guilty to my teeth. However I’m glad to have discovered Dr. Ellie’s mouth care system and xylitol. I’m on day 3, and I have less frequent sensitivity issues.
Thank you! Glad it’s working for you too! That’s a great point, the sensitivity is probably the most supportive benefit using Xylitol. Thinking back just 6 weeks ago my teeth were most certainly more sensitive. I could feel it when I brushed. Best of luck
Glad to hear you also are using Dr. Ellie’s protocol. 1)Swish with antibacterial mouthwash, I use Cepacol 2) Brush teeth, she suggests Florida toothpaste, I don’t due to autoimmune 3) use Xylitol gum or mints I believe their about 5gram weight, but I also use the sugar. About 1/4-1/3 t. My teeth have improved in color and hardness. They are also studying xylitol for osteoporosis.
Where do you GET your xylitol? I’ve checked in quite a few stores and no luck. Did you try making homemade mints? I am concerned large doses can throw off my hormones, AND would love a small piece before sleep! Btw I did try the closys and felt it was actually wicked killing so many good bacteria in the mouth. This video is very insightful, thank you.
@@joannecraft6471 Dr Ellie’s suggest not alternating the products in her oral care system. There is a good scientific rationale behind them in the exact order and ingredients.
@@jeanettebrooks1963 in US I bought granulated xylitol it from a nearby grocery store. Haven’t tried homemade mints/gums. Closys is great mouthwash because it provides oxygen to anaerobic bacteria which are the big culprits behind plaque and cavities. This will reduce the population of bacteria over the period of time with repeated use. Xylitol will supplement good bacteria growth and eventually there will be a balanced, healthy oral microbial population and biofilm in the mouth.
How I take Xylitol - After eating every meal (and often drinks especially juices, teas or coffee) I gently rinse with water (if available) then take a 1/4 teaspoon of the grains (about 2 grams) and allow the saliva to be drawn into my mouth. As the grains of xylitol dissolve I swish the mixture around my mouth and teeth using my tongue. I do this 5-7 times a day. The advised total amount for maximum benefit is approximately 10-12 grams. 1/4 tsp is approximately 2-3 grams. There isn’t said to be any danger in taking more (possible laxative effects) but less than 10 grams in studies made less of an impact. The Streptococcus bacteria is the one that xylitol targets, they produce a lot of acid that damages the teeth. They hide in the holes. Thanks for asking!
Dr Ellies refer to her system worth your time! ua-cam.com/video/tXZbmz6kBUU/v-deo.html&si=MpkdjJipBPCJl-FM Am in the recession problem. Get compliments on my teeth all the time. But there are many things we do like lemon water, peroxide cleaning products all attribute to getting rid of your biofilm which is yr protective defense mechanism to all the problems of unhealthy teeth and gums, no comprehensive dental procedures or treatments needed. These things can cause other ailments worse in your body. She makes a lot of sense at least take the time before it’s too late.
Try to add coconut oil pulling. I heard sauerkraut is high in vit c and is good for teeth. My grandson going through the same thing. I think its hereditary. Order PUR gum. It has xylitol. There is a toothpaste and mouthwash that also contain it. I'll get back with you. Oh, and I just found out Mentos gum has it! It is listed as the main ingredient. $7.10 for 120 pieces. Says 1pc is a serving.
yes I like coconut oil pulling, I use David’s toothpaste and PUR gum or mints sometimes. I get them from iHerb (international) which I have posted a link in the description if anyone is interested. thank you for your comment.
Thank you for the information. Your approach seems to make a lot of sense. We had started with another system, using xylitol gum, pastilles, Closys, crest, etc., very detailed. We followed it to a tee and after 1-2 months our teeth (2 people) started to develop dark brownish stains and became difficult to floss (seemed like tartar), We asked for help in the comments and didn’t hear back from the author, so we stopped everything. Haven’t been back to a hygienist yet. Other viewers were kind enough to reply, however the suggestions ranged from “stop everything “ to “it’s happened to me also”, etc. Are you able to comment, will these darker spots disappear as the treatment progresses? We like your system, it seems much simpler. Thank you!
Hi, I also got some brown stains mainly on the inside of my teeth and around some fillings while doing Dr Ellie's protocol. What I felt I was doing wrong: I was using very little amount of Listerine, as I didn't like it at all. When I increased the quantity of Listerine rinse, the brown stains diminished and I hope to disappear in the future. I'm continuing the protocol only because my teeth and gums feel much stronger than before (been doing this for 6 months now). Hope this helps.
It’s such a tricky road to travel down because there seems to be so many different factor involved depending on the person. I stopped animal products in 2014 and slowly watched my teeth get weaker. I personally look on UA-cam at people like Dr Berg, Dr Mark Hyman and others with a that natural approach. Sugars have played a big roll for me and I suspect a lack of certain vitamins and minerals that naturally occur in animal products. For me I am using good quality supplements, a low carb and sugar diet, lots of leafy greens, low or no alcohol and exercise plus the Xylitol. I do intermittent fasting too so I often only eat within a 6 hours window each day which has made a big difference in lessening plaque. Mamma wellness is another lady who speaks about remineralisation of teeth. With that focus I’m sure you’ll find some answers. I’ve not had dark spots close up so I have to have them filled at this point. I hope you find your answers! Good luck
Yes you can use xylitol granules. That is my preferred method. I carry a small bottle with me and use about 2 grams (1/4 teaspoon) after meals, or about 4-6 times a day in total. I get my from iHerb an international online supplement company. It’s possible they are in India. Here is a link if you’re interested. www.iherb.com/pal/referral/MRL0677/overall?url=https%3A%2F%2Fth.iherb.com%2Fsearch%3Fkw%3Dxylitol%26rcode%3DMRL0677&rcode=MRL0677&
Good morning. I am afraid of dentist. At present I have a loose front and jaw teeth. I was searching for way to regrow my gums and I saw the effects of xylitol. This is two weeks I have being using Xylitol sweetener and the Xylitol chewing gums. My mouth is starting to feel different. I will use it for the next 6 months and let you know the effects.
With the aid of Xylitol you may like to find a biological approach to dentistry. A biological dentist will approach the teeth from a holistic perspective including lifestyle choices and diet. This maybe supportive. One example online (and there are many) is Dr Dome. Good luck!
Indeed, dentist don't show that info... i've replied mine that, since my gums are, after five years, finally better, thanks to Xylitol. I replied her KINDLY why she never informed me about it? And with an email, she threw me out... i'm still in shock... they do what they like, and lies in email as well to make me look bad so 'she is covered', it's insane... i've let so much work done with caveties, it does not stop, lost many teeth etc... outrageous. From Belgium. Sigh 😢 I hear you how fast the 'little thing' grows & it's on & on, no one, no one, ever gave me any info of vitamines, supplements, Xylitol, also cocnut oil swishing is really helpful.
Cool video man, i have also recently started to dive deep into researching teeth health. Ill tell you my routine to provoke thought and maybe we can juggle some ideas around. I did dr ellies routine actually, for about 3 weeks but then i quit since the amount if flouride she was recommending was borderline insane. I get that it CAN work, but at what cost? We kinda know by now that its a neurotoxin 😂. So after i quit i've built my own routine from the ground up. In the morning the first thing i do, after drinking water, is scrape my tounge and then brush my teeth using a nano soft toothbrush (least abrasive toothbrush on the market) and nano-hydroxyapatite toothpaste (flouride alternative thats just another form of calcium, helps rebuild enamel). I do not wash my mouth with water after brushing, so an edible toothpaste is desirable. At night, same thing but floss (using non plastic floss) before brushing, and during to get the paste in between the teeth. During the day i use the xylitol after meals, the same way you do it. I also avoid eating and drinking much during 12pm-6pm since thats when our salive is most healing. I also oil pull using coconut oil 2 hours after my first morning meal. Just do it for about 10-15 minutes. Diet wise i eat a lot of raw food, such as raw cheeses and expecially aged gouda which has lots of vit k2. For vit A and D i eat about a teaspoon of fermented raw cod liver oil with my meals and with my meals i also always eat loads of butter. Sometimes i forget to eat the cod liver so i just eat a few raw eggs. They also contain high amounts of vit A and vit D. I use raw honey as my only sweetener. I try avoid fruit but summers coming up so i will keep pushing on with the xylitol. I think, other than diet change of course, xylitol is the number 1 thing most people can do to help their oral health. Your absolutely right, dentists do not want the majority to know 😬
Forgot to mention, I don't swallow the xylitol. I know they say it helps with the micro biome but i have also heard from others that it disrupts it. I choose to spit it out afterwards and I just eat an avocado a day for microbiome benefits.
Good to hear how your routine goes! I write down the toothpaste fluoride alternative and will keep an eye out for that. Yea the diet is a super important part but it’s so personal 😊 Thanks for sharing!
I have gum recessed & stains on the teeth after 5months of using Dr. Phillips’s complete mouth system because of alcohol Listerine. Therefore, I have to give up using it. It’s not for everyone.
@@Mermaidlife97 She recommends the original formual which is highly acidic, but you have to immediately rinse with ACT anti-cavity to neutralize your mouth. The listerine helps to kill bacteria that forms plaque
Thank you so much for this video...I just came across Dr Ellies program about 2 weeks ago...I am in my 60's and the past 4 years have been a dental nightmare...I think I have developed dry mouth and as a result I am having cavities every time I go to the dentist and needing crowns, etc...I am anxious to try just the plain xylitol as the mints from Dr Ellie are a bit strong in flavor and I need something I can take in the middle of the night that is bland...Thank you again and hope you continue to get the good results!
I’m really glad you found support in the video. Ultimately that’s what this is all about. I don’t have the answers but at least by sharing and being interested we can find new ways through. I hope you find some peace on your teeth journey. I’ve recently found a lot of support doing daily meditation for the detachment and increase in mindfulness. I think this plays a very large roll in the process and what we are learning in healing. Wishing you the best
It’s been 4 months now and I’m still using it daily. Cutting out the sugar is super important in my experience and using xylitol is a way to support that. Another teeth friendly sweet option is Glycine. An amino acid. I’m trying to get some out here in Thailand. Once I do I’ll share a video if it works. Thanks for the comment! Best of luck
Hello, your video is so timely. I am following Dr Ellie’s program. Want to do the Master Cleanse program where you drink a mixture of fresh lemon juice, water, maple syrup and cayenne pepper six to seven cups per day. Wondering if Dr Ellie had any advice on how to counter any effects of drinking a beverage containing fresh lemon juice? Appreciate any feedback you may have. Thank you.
Yea I totally understand where you’re coming from. I’ve done the master cleanse too and it does require quite an acidic hit on the teeth. I think if your teeth are strong and you do this once it’s not going to be too bad. I would rinse with baking soda and then use the xylitol after to rebalance the alkalinity whilst inviting mineral rich saliva back in if I were doing this again 😊 I’ve done years of fasting and lemon juice was always involved. I think this, along with nit supplementing, was what strongly influenced my tooth challenges. I got a bit obsessed with detoxing…. There are worse addictions lol My suggestion is that if you do decide to do the cleanse, address the alkalinity of the mouth after each drink. And also I know it’s not advised but I find that coconut oil pulling puts a type of shiny barrier around my teeth after pulling for a bout 5-10 mins. That might also be a tool you could try during the cleans before drinking the mixture. Hope that helps!
I reposted a short by dr dome explaining how the xylitol study was fixed. The mice were giving a huge dosage which was said to be something like 10 times the safe amount for human consumption. You can find the video in my shorts or go to dr dome on Instagram. cheers.
Thanks for the video. 2 Questions: 1. What is the reason that you link to Dr Todd Ovokaitys? 2. The link for "Xylitol Mints (clean Swiss made)" is for gum and not mints. Is there a better link? Thanks
Oh thanks for letting me know! Yea I’ll get that corrected straight away! in the video I mentioned laser treatment - Dr Todd Is the guy who is working with regenerative Laser treatment for the activation of stem cell natural healing.
Oh damn it's a bummer that you can't get all the products she recommends. Could always use a transhipment service like purchase from US sites and have it shipped to you. But totally agree I think get some xylitol in 4-5 times a day. Definitely after any kind of eating is going to help so much. Hope your teeth will remain good for you.
I was a little disappointed at first but now 3 months later I’m finding that my body does much better without the chemicals. Some people do really well on the full protocol but I managed to get the toothpaste and it burnt my gums. I’m having to be quite strictly natural:) It so interesting that we all have different needs but the main thing is that we find our personal healing and the sharing part is really helpful so thanks for your comment!
You’re right. Except about dentists not wanting to help their patients. There may be some dentists that are sleeze bags. Sleeze bags exist everywhere. My dentist tells every patient about the benefits of xylitol as well as other protective methods like oil pulling and diet modification to improve their oral health.
Xylitol gives me digestive problems unfortunately, i try to just swish and spit out after few minutes. My mouth feels good after it , lowers the inflammation
I'm 3 months into the same thing, the only change I have noticed is the bad taste and smell in the morning decreased dramatically, as far as repairing gums and exposed tooth, nothing yet. I can see the exposed teeth roots on few of my teeth, so no change so far, but I'm going for the full 6 months, we'll see
Yea same! I think that it’s a holistic approach and there are many factors that can improved to support the healing. I like Dr Dome, he uses a holistic dentist approach which works better for me. thanks for sharing, good luck too!
So after you put a little X in your mouth after a meal and swish it around a bit, do you then spit it out or do you swallow it? And is that the only time you use it and is that the only change you’ve made? I suddenly have been getting Dr Ellie’s videos in my feed and appreciate seeing yours as well. 👍
It’s more to do with the mineral in the saliva and this is effected by a good clean alkaline diet. It needs to be a holistic approach but the Xylitol is a great support.
Be careful with salt water rinse, that can dry out your enamel and damage it. Also salt water will kill good ans bad bactria.. maybe reduce to 2-3 times per week. Also for any which experiences senstivity while using xyliyol thats normal, its endothermic so provides a cooling sensation..
didnt understand - what exactly do you do with the xylitol??? besides put it in the drink as a sweetener.... do you rinse your mouth after eating?? with xylitol water?
I love UK accent. Much love from the US and learning from someone who is using it. I just went through dental hell as well. Also I drink my coffee through a straw and never from the cup anymore. Same with hot teas. You can buy some unique straws online🎉
Haha I’m just drinking my coffee with a spoon this morning as I read this! The straw works better for me when it’s cold, I think, but I’m going to try it now! Thanks for the comment ⭐️
@@tomnaturalpls don't fool people. xylitol does not contain minerals. Xylitol is a refined sweetener that is a sugar alcohol, and it is made from trees and plant fibers, so it does not contain vitamins, minerals, or protein
But still I´m a bit confused wether we should first brush the teeth and then the sugar, or we should avoid brushing them? also the filling of having some food in between the teeth, makes me feel that only xyletol is not enough. I don´t like these mouth rinsings she proposes. Btw, I´ll start swallowing it;)
I’m not a fan of the mouth washes either. I prefer natural like salt water solutions and coconut or sesame oil pulling. I’m not suggesting you swallow the xylitol but i do at this point in time with no known negative effects 😊
Thanks for sharing your experience! Do you also use Dr. Ellie's system with all those chemical products? I tried the system, bought all her products, but it DRIED out my mouth extremely, my mouth felt like a desert, I woke up at night and could barely swallow. So I stopped using the products but continue using the xylitol. I am wondering if anyone had the same experience? Unfortunately we cannot buy the Zellies in Europe, so for now I use the pure xylitol😊
I do not use Dr Ellie’s other products. I have too much of a pull towards nature and any chemical product disagrees with me. I tried the toothpaste and it burnt my gums. I like Dr Dome, he uses functional medicine and comes from a biological dentistry approach which is basically holistic and natural. He includes oil pulling and I agree. Thanks for sharing! And yea I use the crystals mostly too but need them less and less the better my diet (less sugar).
Yea absolutely! My confidence is riding again. It’s a combination of cutting sugar, exercise and healthy lifestyle. Improving all areas of life is my intention. I enjoy biohackers like Garry Brecka for motivation. Just finished a free 3 day water fast online. The Ultimate Human - get involved!
@@tomnatural what do you do if your traveling and a filling falls out? Its scary to think about and really upsets me. I personally just cant travel but I really want to though :(
Yes I take approximately 2 grams at a maximum of 6 times a day after meals and drinks. Studies from Dr Ellie Phillips course say that any more than 12 grams a day will not improve the effects but less than 6 grams a day will lessen the effects. Best results showed from taking Xylitol in small doses 4-6 times. That’s what the studies show 😊
You might want to go a bit deeper. I like Dr Dome. He is a functional medicine practitioner and biological dentist. His approach could be very supportive. Definitely look him up!
I'm going to try adding the xylitol and the other Dr. Ellie recommendations. Something she doesn't use that I do already though is a good tooth powder. I have one from OraWellness that has micro only hydroxyapatite and it definitely helps. The nano stuff works great too but I'm skeptical of things that are nano as they can easily enter your cells. I think they do clear as they are natural unlike something like titanium dioxide or other un natural nano particles, but the micro works well enough anyway. Hoping that with adding in the xylitol I can start to reverse my gum recession also. The hydroxyapatite certainly helps to stabilize them so maybe using both will actually begin to fully reverse the damage.
That’s good to know! I’ve just ordered a toothpaste (David’s) that has hydroxyapatite! I kept hearing about it but I couldn’t remember what it’s was called. Thanks for sharing and best wishes with your success!
@@tomnatural The Davids is a nano type. (Again it definitely works and some have more nano than others, I with all my health issues already am avoiding the nano just in case). The best nano I think I found was Dr. Jen's. I personally have been using non nano Risewell and I like it. The Davids iirc is pretty good also. The only things I could find to rebuild actual enamel other than Vitamin D / your own body (which it can) was a hard to obtain protein dental product but only a dentist can order it. It's made to be applied directly to early cavities whatever they are called I can't remember. Safe because it's the same protein your body makes to facilitate enamel production theoretically. Of course it seems they can do that with stem cells also and it would really be nice if the FDA didn't totally screw stem cell applications in the US. I'm sure they could be growing people entirely new teeth if we had real medicine and not endless corruption and for profit.
As a child I always had caries at every dental visit. I grew into a teenager and began using Trident with Xylitol. The next dental visit I had 0 caries. The dentist asked me what had changed and I told him I was using Trident gum to prevent bad breath but avoided the gums with sugar. He told me about Xylitol and how it prevented caries, after that I always had a small piece of Trident in my mouth, when I was awake, after that and the caries problems had all but disappeared. Then sometime in the 80's or 90's the taste of Trident changed to sickeningly sweet. I looked on all the packages of sugarless gums and Xylitol was still there but now also had every sugarless ingredient ever created. Mannitol, maltitol, saccharin, aspartame etc. These added ingredients are not only sickeningly sweet but they also trigger IBS, nausea, diarrhea and leave bad aftertastes in my mouth. Needless to say, but I had to stop using Trident. Now my teeth are rotting again.
I so wish Trident only used Xylitol again.
Wow Great share! I’ve listed some brands available worldwide in the description box below!
I’m sure you can find some good quality gum or mints locally. Best place might be your local health food shop or order online!…. definitely worth it! 🦷✨

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Due to our sin. Hell is the punishment
.“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”
Revelation 21:8 KJV
but Jesus who is God. Came down to earth as a man lived a perfect life never sinned people got jealous of him got him convicted on false charges then he died buried and resurrected
Remember how I said our sin is why we can’t go to heaven? The only thing that can wash away your sins in the blood of Jesus
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” Roman’s 5:8-9 KJV
So to get saved is super easy
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.”
Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV
Salvation is a free gift by faith alone. You can’t earn it by going to church, getting water baptized, or by any good thing you do.
“For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.”
2 Corinthians 7:10 KJV
Then you just have to feel guilty and sorry for being a sinner and repent for being a sinner. Do you feel guilty for being a sinner? If you do then there’s just one final step.
“that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
Romans 10:9 KJV
Pretty much all you have to do is tell God out loud with your mouth that you believe the gospel. That’s it super simple. You MUST mean it from your heart to work.
You can pray something like this
“dear God i repent as a sinner. i believe jesus is God, who died, buried, and ressurected, so his blood can wash away my sins. so i only trust in the blood alone to save me not my good works. Save me from hell in jesus name i pray amen”
If you meant it your saved!

@@Super9jababeu can buy xylitol instead of zellies. It is much cheaper

You can make your own xylitol mints using granulated xylitol and peppermint oil. Just melt some xylitol in a stainless steel pan on a low heat are drop of peppermint oil and pour into baking paper to cool. Bash into fragments and you've got some delicious mints.

I’m from the states. I have been using Dr Ellie’s entire program with the Xylitol for 8 months now. It’s amazing. It works my gums are growing back and so pink and healthy
Wow 8 months in, that’s a great place to share from, thank you. Anything you would tell yourself back then from your understanding know?
Do you use the special brushes also that Dr Ellie recommends?
Same! I'm on month 4 but I could see a difference within 2-3 weeks but I had bad oral hygiene habits lol.
The problem with Dr Ellie's protocol is her products all contain fluoride which is poison to your body
Please, where can I find a step by step program instructions to take care of my teeth & very recessed gums (& bone loss & many teeth losses). One video of hers said to use many different rinses… Listerine & ACT etc … & I can’t afford all that & there seems to be some controversy abt those & she didn’t mention xylitol in that video - maybe it’s old & she’s changed her program… ? I purchased xylitol & am mixing an 1/8 of a tsp w some coconut oil and pulling it thru my mouth for a couple minutes after brushing. I’ll also start massaging my gums. What else do I need, or do you recommend that I do? Thank you!
I’ve been taking xylitol mints several times a day now for several months and I’ve noticed a big different which is incredible. My front teeth were going translucent - well now they are almost fully back to solid glossy white! It seems the rest of my teeth look healthy and white. And I think my gums are getting better. Last dental clean I was told they look really clean and healthy. Prior to that I was getting told I had so many issues despite eating incredibly clean diet for years and being so healthy conscious.
The whole concept we can actually remineralise our teeth is exactly what I needed to believe - it’s real and it’s easy!
That’s great to hear! I wonder if in your case it was literally that the minerals for remineralising the teeth needed some stimulation from the Xylitol. Hearing your experience is very helpful. Thank you for sharing! Do you use any supplements? Do you eat meat? Don’t feel you have to share, I’m just collecting data 😊
I’m from the states and started braces in Feb 2024..I started Dr. Ellie’s program concurrently… wowwwwww it works… my mouth is soooooo healthy

Try combining xylitol with virgin olive oil or cod liver oil, it remains on teeth longer and enters gum pockets, especially at night after cleaning teeth, another tip wearing rubber glove, using index finger massage gums at the root of each tooth. What you are doing is like weight training, your getting a pump so the fresh blood encourages growth of new cells. Best of luck
Awesome ideas! totally into that!
Forgive my ignorance, but why the glove?
@@DebraLunsford-m1d Oh thanks for asking, really what you are trying to do in your home care is practice as close to any credible dentist office procedure. Dr Ellie Philips suggests doing this gum massage using a "clean specific toothbrush", hence why I suggest using the same method only difference is with a glove, plus they are easy to clean and you can simply shift your index finger to another finger insert should it develop a hole. SAVE YOUR MONEY SAVE YOUR TEETH.
@@DebraLunsford-m1d so the pressure is minimal I guess.
I do this no glove...@user-et8og7uc9w
The bad bacteria strephtococal mutant that cause caries cannot digest xylitol, so by taking xylitol you are starving this bad bacteria and it will die... Decay can be stopped and in some cases repaired as the mineralisation will strengthen the tooth... Dr Ellie explains this in her videos
Great! Thanks for sharing
Incorrect, it is worse for strep mutant than “xylitol not being food” as it could simply feed on whatever else you are eating.
Xylitol kills strep mutant because it has 5 molecules of carbons instead of 6 which makes strep mutant repeatedly spend energy absorbing it without being able to generate energy from it, in a loop until it runs out of energy and dies.
Eat xylitol => eject => eat again the same molecule => eject, repeated until it dies of exhaustion (energy insufficiency)
I've seen some of her videos. Thanks. Shalom.
That’s not even correct… SM can most definitely metabolise xylitol, it even prefers it to regular table sugar. It cannot produce acid from it to demineralise the teeth though. Xylitol also reduces the rate of replication of SM.

I ve done a strict carnivore diet for close to five years now and stopped brushing my teeth every day I clean my mouth every day but stopped brushing .my teeth are hard and seem to be regenerated also I used to have sore joints but now I’m pain free good health comes from within consider your teeth as a reflection of your overall health and address your inner health and it will carry over
Great advice!
Interesting, I’ve been on carnivore diet for about a year, but my teeth were collecting a ton of calculus, it was horrible. Since then, I’ve tried Dr. Ellie’s program and that is helping with the calculus but teeth are still stained. It has been a mistery to me. I feel great on diet otherwise. Apparently some people have that side effect. 😢
@@carolinag533 I think it's from oxalate dumping. Worth looking into.
@@carolinag533that happened to me when i went carnivore (2 years now) and it was the carbonated water for me
I picked up the use of Xylitol from Dr Ellie Phillips but did not want to use the mouthwashes she recommends because of the chemicals. Also I'm in the UK and some of the products are not available in the UK. I use ecodenta toothpaste has Xylitol in it from Holland & Barratt which is really pricey for a toothpaste! £7. However, as I'd built up a voucher of £15 I was able to reduce that down when I ordered 9 of them!
What I do is have Spry Gum at bedtime containing Xylitol. During the day I add ground down Xylitol crystals and mix it into the toothpaste which contains only 25% of the sugar. I brush with a very soft brush making sure I don't scrape the tooth enamel. I also swish either with salt or Xylitol. Also massaging the gums helps for minor receding gums. I've noticed my teeth look stronger/remineralised and whiter. I'm not looking for whiter than white teeth as this is unrealistic! So far so good. But bateria definitely can be a major problem for oral health and Xylitol is a miracle solution!
Thanks for sharing your experience! Yea gum massaging is a great support. I actually have 2 brushes, one super soft for gums and one for teeth. I’m also cautious about the mouth washes and toothpastes. I still opt for natural and rinse with a Himalayan sea salt solution after. Good luck!

Put a few spoonfuls of xylitol in a saucepan, put it on the stove and let it melt. Then make small to medium drops on baking paper or silicone molds for cake decorating and let them dry. You can then weigh out your daily dose and take it with you in a small box. I hope this helps.
I live in Australia and have been using xylitol toothpaste for a few years and it comes from America. So you can source it online from Naturally Sweet and go to Dental section from the menu. They have mints and gum, and bags of xylitol as you have there. Everything you need! I use the non fluoride toothpaste, and the gum and now the mints. I just had a filling fall out last week and it cost me $824AU for 30 minutes work! I tried veganism 8 years ago for one year and I think it wrecked my teeth. Now after 6 years keto I am nearly a year on carnivore and not looking back! Best thing I ever did for ultimate health. Thank you Tom for sharing your experiences!
xylitol toothpaste… thanks for the connection to naturally sweet! wow that’s big bucks for a filling, goes to show how important it is for us to find our health, as the unhealthy become prey! Diet is such a huge topic and very personal. I really respect everyone’s decision. For me I think it has a lot to do with the quality of the food, the soils and the naturally occurring vitamins and minerals that our body needs from organic food…. not to mention how stress can effect us! Thanks for the share!
I’m in Australia. I found “real gum” brand at Coles and the first ingredient is Xylitol. A packet only costs $2.50
I have been vegan for the past few years and at my last dentist visit he said my gums are fantastic and to keep doing whatever I’m doing. I told him I hadn’t changed anything except diet. Putting aside the moral and sustainability issues, keto and carnivore diets aren’t healthy so I wouldn’t go there. Perhaps you were drinking something with sugar or maybe juice, I don’t know but I don’t see how you can blame eating a vegan diet. That’s an exorbitant cost for a filling. Perhaps you should consider extras cover from private health insurance. Thanks for the information about Naturally Sweet. I’m in Australia too.
I follow Dr Ellie's Total Mouth care system and I am located in Australia. Brushing with non-fluoride toothpaste is no good if you rinse with fluoridated tap water. Best to rinse with Listerine then ACT anti-cavity mouth rinse avoid the tap water all together. I also use Unflavoured Pre-Rinse - CloSys before brushing which balances the pH in the mouth.
Aaaand I’ve been vegan for over 35 years, so please don’t blame your dental issues on veganism.
I can't believe how well this has worked for me. I bought Xylitol mints and took two at a time 4 times a day. I had a small brown cavity at the top of my front tooth right on the gum line.
I only got the mints a week ago and already there is a noticeable difference. The cavity is so small now that i think it will be gone altogether in a few days. I'm so happy because i have had so many fillings over the years and now i have a means of not having any more.
I take the two mints and hold them in my mouth for a few minutes.

I use Dr Ellie’s 4 step protocol….3 months. No tartar on my teeth at all…. Went to the dentist for a cleaning and they couldn’t believe that. I had no charger on my teeth.
good to hear it works for you!
Tartar?
are you saying that you used to have tartar and now after following Dr ellies protocol you have managed reverse it?
Cheers as I use Xylitol as my sugar and also after brushing I rub it in and add a touch of caster oil. My teeth were falling out as I had very bad gum disease and now I don’t. My dentist cant believe how much my teeth and gums have improved.😀
That’s great! So good to hear! Thanks for sharing your win!
Really? 😮
Thank you for sharing. I just got diagnosed with gum disease and receding. @Aangel452 can you please share the steps on using castor oil and Xylitol together or one after the other?
18 weeks here into Dr Ellie complete mouth protocol, including xylitol. What a blessing her method has been to me! It works wonders!
Wonderful! Glad it works for you!
Hey friend I just heard of Dr Ellie's protocol and decided to give it a shot. I have concerns about step 5 the final fluoride rinse, how do you feel about? I think anything in moderation is ok but I'm concerned about the frequent use of it. I know you're not supposed to ingest it but it makes me think using act rinse twice a day surely will increase my exposure to eat and inevitably a little will get ingested as you saliva forms and you swallow. I have decided to give it a shot still, but i'm very careful to make sure I don't swallow after 30 min as best I can. Do you think this step could be stopped entirely or maybe only done once a day, or Once a few days? How important do you find the entire regimen? I certainly have good hopes about the xylitol.
Any input from both of you would be much appreciated! Cheers!
@Miquiztli_tochtli my family and I are doing great with Dr Ellie protocol. My elderly Aunt, 93 years old, has been doing the complete mouth system since January. She is feeling her mouth better than ever before.
@Miquiztli_tochtli the last step, the ACT, is very important because, according to Dr Ellie, it strengthens the enamel of the teeth. Also the listerine is too acidic to remain as the last step in the mouth. The different rinses and toothpaste work together. Best wishes to you.
I also discovered dr Ellie recently and I bought 2 kg of xylitol 😂 my teeth are so smooth now, never any plaque. And I started brushing with crest and the rest of her mouth care system.
That’s great! Thanks for sharing
Dr. Ellie is an absolute god-send. Just got her Zellie's mints. Fantastic!
Did you buy her programme and package or did you buy it all separately yourself? Thanks 😊
@@Phoenixrises89 I bought it all separately, very carefully to get the exact right products. Her mints are delicious!
@@vickis.9363THANKYOU for responding 😊… did you get them in the Uk or any advice on where to purchase would be greatly appreciated…
Please keep us informed on progress. I discovered Dr Ellie recently and have been chewing Xylitol gum regularly
I’ll keep sharing my journey 😊
All of the products in Dr. Elle's system are available in the UK. I buy most from Amazon.
1.Toothpaste: Crest - Amazon. Seems expensive but the tubes are twice the size of the usual UK sized tooth paste tubes. Oral B 1-2-3 is a good alternative and is available through "on line" pharmacies.
2. Altra Dex - Amazon . This is the rinse that is used first to take away the acidity of the mouth before brushing (I forget the US name but it is the same formula.)
3. Act- This is the final fluoride rinse after using Listerine. Its name in the UK is Colgate FlouriGard. Available in Waitrose and perhaps other supermarkets.
4. Xylitol mints and gum - amazon
I have found Dr. Ellie's system excellent having no further problems with sensitivity, much reduced plaque etc. Good luck with your dental health!
There mixed results. I think it works well for many but for some the chemicals are too harsh. If that is the case I recommend taking a more natural approach like Dr Dome in Germany. A functional medicine practitioner and biological dentist, his approach is holistic and natural. Thanks for sharing!
Altra Dex? I thought is called Ultra Dex. It can be found at Boots, Tesco and Superdrug. I don't know about any Altra Dex though. Only Ultra Dex. I buy the one that says "original" on it (as this was suggested by sombody else's comment under one if Dr. Ellie's videos). Thank you for the Colgate Fluoriguard in the role of Act. I will keep an eye on it for the future. Right now I have been using Dentyl instead of Act, just because it looks cool (is bi-phasic) and contains Xilitol). I am not sure if it works as Act should work. It's just something that seemed better considering the situation.
@@eeaotly Yes, I am afraid it was a typographical error. The Original version is also correct which I also neglected to mention! I did see Act was available through Amazon in England but I would rather buy Colgate FlouriGard the version of Act for the UK market, even though it is made in Poland.
@@douglasmcleod7074 Poland? That's new. Most of the mouthwashes I used (or I have read the label in the shop) are made in Italy. Only a couple of them were made in UK. Thank you!
@@tomnaturalI wish you wouldn't be using Crest with fluoride that's hard on your brain unless you just really want Alzheimer's and other diseases.
Hearing you speak brought me hope. My upper right side is all root canals and crowns. I’ve been in tears over this. Let’s be honest, it will never feel/chew the same on that side. I just started Dr Ellie’s system and I’m hoping to save the rest of my mouth.
It goes deeper than teeth right!? These patterns of thought connected to these physical issues can be so challenging. Never give up hope 🙏 I’ve had to make some very challenging choices to help my teeth. I believe some of the most supportive changes are in diet and nutrition. The Xylitol helps for sure but cutting out sugar, refined carbs and eating a whole food diet is super helpful. If you are not eating protein I highly recommend taking a quality amino acid blend (BCAA’s) to give the body the building blocks it needs to restore structure. I’m not a fan of dr Ellie’s protocol for myself because my body only does well on nature. It may work for you though! Another good biological dentist is Dr Dome. He includes natural supplements which I absolutely agree with. Wishing you the best results! You can do this! Get your power back ✨
Cloves
Yes to the cloves it kills bacteria and pain
I recently saw several of her videos and definitely felt the truth coming from her. I appreciate you taking the time to reinforce her teachings.
I only take what resonates which is about 50%. We all have our place in this evolution process 😊
DR ELLIE!!!!!!!! She is the QUEEN!! X
She’s done a good job
I don't know what I did wrong. I just lost a very important tooth. I followed Dr. Ellies steps on a regular basis. I even bought her 2 books.
You might like or need to go more natural. dr Ellie’s protocol might not be right for everyone (including me). I only use the Xylitol technique. One example of a biological approach to healing teeth comes from a German biological dentist called Dr Dominik Nischwitz - I like his work and you may find some answers there. He is in the Biohacking world.
@@tomnatural thanks
Can you keep us updated about the Japanese research. 🙏🏻
I’ve got my eye on it! Happy share updates
This actually works! Combine it with ginger and coconut oil!
Nice tip!
Dr Ellie’s English equivalents: Ultradex Original (do *not* add flavour sachet); Oral B 123 toothpaste; Listerine Cool Mint; Colgate Flouriguard. Before I found out about this I ordered Closys and ACT from US via Amazon- costs a fortune. The toothpaste you can get in Poundland, Listerine Cool Mint in supermarkets, other mouthwashes from Boots or Superdrug. Definitely does the job.
Nice one! Thanks for sharing, super helpful!
🤙
Were Closys and ACT better than UK equivalent?
These products contain fluoride which is toxic to your body
At the moment amazons selling 3 tubes of the crest toothpaste dr Ellie recommends for £12.65 might sound expensive to some but I was spending way more on other toothpastes.
I’m very pleased with the results after using xylitol chewing gum for a few months now.
That’s great to hear! Thank you
I have pretty bad gastric reaction to xylitol when ingesting it in gum, etc. However, I just noticed that I have it the toothpaste I've been using (Springjene). I do not get a gastric reaction from the xylitol in the toothpaste. Is that a sufficient amount according to Dr. Ellie's protocol?
I love Pur Mints (the 'u' has 2 dots over it) Tangerine Tango! A xylitol mint that's not minty. You have fine looking teeth, I'm glad you're working to keep them.
great share thanks! A xylitol sweet that’s tangerine flavour…. sounds lush!
Spry are good too, first ingredient is xylitol
I'm gonna try this, thanks for all the comments, made committing to the routine easier after reading them all 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Cool! Good luck!
I use Xylitol gum and mints. Also Xylitol toothpaste. Keeps my teeth and gums healthy.
Nice!
I see in the comments people asking how long should I keep the Xylitol in my mouth for, well Google search says minimum of 1 minute too maximum of 5 minutes. If you were to time how long it takes for these Xylitol mints to dissolve then you can better quantify the timeline. Let's be honest here your mouth bacteria both good or bad doesn't know if you are sucking on Xylitol mints or swishing around your mouth Xylitol crystals. The only thing that matters is the frequency exposure and quantity
helpful share! Thank you!
I need this badly. Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome!
In the states, money is the primary motivator.
Sad, but true.
This is why Dentists are not widely promoting this highly effective protocol.
No surprise that Dr. Ellie was educated outside of the states.
Yea it’s sad but true. There is a rising group of dentists that take a more natural approach. In the states Dr Ghandi is a good source. Its the biological approach and I love it!
Thank you! I've been doing Dr. Ellie's CMCS for about 4 weeks now. My teeth feel amazing and I finally have hope.
That’s awesome! It’s a great little course of info and motivation!
@@tomnatural Tell me Tom, which products are you able to obtain over there in England? Each product is so vital, I can't imaging doing without any of them.

order from childhood trauma that destroyed my teeth and confidence along with it. I hate going to the dentist and can't afford it. Don't know how this video got to me but i'm going to get some of these products and give it a go. Thanks for making the video
Trauma work can be super helpful for how our biology is affected. I’ve experienced a very clear connection in my life. For that reason I a big fan of mindfulness and such practices as meditation, forgiveness and the development of consciousness. Your welcome and I hope it helps.
Going to give it a go. Thank you
Good for you!
This is fantastic info, much appreciated my man.
Glad it was helpful!
I was doing Dr. Ellie's method, then I found out fluoride is bad for the thyroid gland, and I have a thyroid condition. I also stopped the method because I also discovered that mouthwashes destroy nitric oxide; and the test strips don't give an accurate enough result of how much nitric oxide is in the body. Testing in a clinic is the best way to know for sure how much nitric oxide is being produced.
I total agree! I am only using the Xylitol information from the course. None of the other product including the crest toothpaste agree with me. The toothpaste burnt my gums. I’m using a homemade Himalayan pink salt mouth wash, coconut oil pulling, natural toothpaste, and low carb, low sugar diet with whole foods and whole food vitamins to restore my body.
All true
the important point is the nitric oxide, no nitric oxide causes health problems and most of it comes from the mouth, so doing anything in your mouth can put that at risk, ie mouth washes etc. I wish I knew a lot more about the process.
@@wally6193You can produce naturally and abundantly your N.O simply by humming !!
while doing this, I notice that the vibration in the sinus increases when you press the lips together .. there is breath exercice here on youtube with humming. ,😊
Sugar has it's place, just not in your stomach. White sugar was found decades ago to heal deep skin ulcers that would not heal. It worked perfectly for my Aunt who had been treted for months for an ulcer on her leg. 2 weeks of sugar and it started healing.
There are studies showing Xylitol (a sugar found in nature) to be supportive for the gut bacteria as a prebiotic. However, these days we can find proof for everything so it’s just got to suit the individuals belief. I’m sensitive to unnatural products and so far Xylitol has not upset me in the small doses I take.
Thanks for sharing, keep us updated 😊
Thanks for the comment! Yes - keep sharing 🙌
Thank you for sharing this 🙏 I'm so glad to see your video today ..it could safe me to losing my hope 🙏🙏🙏
I’m happy you found some support. 😊
Thank you so much for sharing this information!
You are so welcome! Glad it helps
Thank you for sharing your experience and results with Xylitol
My pleasure 😊
Don't be frightened to eat sugars, fruit, carbs - just swish your mouth with some mineralised water, and maybe drinking some milk or a bit of cheese afterwards will help. A caution with xylitol; it's a sugar alcohol and if used too much it ferments in the gut and can cause endotoxin issues. However i do use a couple pieces of flavoured xylitol chewing gum and incorporate the 'mewing' action after consuming carb foods (the brand i use is xyloburst) btw the oxidation of glucose creates carbon dioxide and oxygenates cell tissues. Eliminate toxic seed oils, pufa dressings and industrialised seed oil inflammatory foods as they will inhibit glucose oxidation. When brushing just dip neem leaf oil (which is anti-bacterial/plaque) with bi-carb soda on a toothbrush or i use a MISWAK plant stick which has inherent anti-bacterial properties and nulls plaque build up. Finally i finish brushing with calcium carbonate powder or eggshell powder on my toothbrush to strengthen the enamel. If flossing, then avoid commercial brands as they contain 4ever chemicals - phthalates/oestrogens 🍻
Cool! Nice share and info 👍
Some have to be afraid. This works for YOU.
Be very frightened of fruit, sugar and carbs, you'll end up with inflammatory diseases, auto immune diseases, diabetes, heart disease, and overgrowth of candidiasis!
@@DianaMcFerran how do you work that?
@@pluto4D look it up
Thanks for sharing this .Im trying to convince my daughter about this and they don't believe me. My little grandaughter has lost the enamal from one of her baby teeth and I'd like her to try this and see if it helps her.
I’ve found it to be particularly helpful in conjunction with removing processed sugars. And especially using it after meals. The easiest way or maybe more appealing for children could be mints or gum if they are at a safe age. Make sure they are clean products. I’ve posted some options in the description of products I use.
Just purchased my first ever Xylitol sugar. Watching your videos to learn how to use it. ❤
cool! it’s a great support
Dr Ellie is awesome
She has one good info. I only use the xylitol from her system 😊
When is the best effective time to chew Xylitol gum? After every meal? Thanks!
It’s said to be best after every meal and drink. But a minimum of 10 12 grams a day was shown to be most effective. Taken in smaller doses 5-6 times a day.
@@tomnatural Awesome, thanks.
Dr. Phillips also has practices that help. I use xylitol crystals, Pur gum and Zellie's mints. I brush twice a day with two different brushes so they can each dry 24 hrs. Keep them outside the bathroom so bad bacteria does not colonize on them. Also brush for two minutes with a focus on the gums inside and out side the teeth. You are then stimulating stem cells in the gums. She recommendeds soft Dr Plotkas or Preserve toothbrushes (both from Amazon) if you can get them. They have characteristics that help the gums heal, but not vital. I am looking for an alternative to Listerine, as it feels too harsh for my mouth, but haven't found an alternative I trust yet. I'm using the Listerine for less than a minute. I've been on the program six weeks though. I was facing a $6000 bill (in the US)! I'm not getting that work done. I'll get checked out again at 6 months. I'm feeling very hopeful!
Thanks for sharing your experience and some tips. Very helpful. I agree on the listerine, many biological dentists say sea salt in water can be a good mouth wash. I’m not recommending it but that is what I use.
Great video , can this help make teeth whiter ?
xylitol makes teeth more reflective which supports the appearance of whiteness. Works really well.
Hello bro. Thank you for sharing this. Besides remineralizing teeth, can it help with receding gums?
Hey brother! I think it can help but going deeper into an alkaline diet, organic or chemical free living, hydration, exercise, mindfulness and so on all adds to the bodies ability to regenerate. A very personal journey but I would say Xylitol does help used in the correct way. Thanks for your comment
My teeth are also suffering after years of eating lots of fruit, lemon water and probably too many carbs and not enough minerals. Then made worse by improper dental hygiene. I brused well at night and morning.. but now I know so much better. I love learning from Dr. Ellie's videos, but don't do all the fluoride products she recommends. Right now what seems to be working for me is following whatever I eat with a raw vegetable to clean and mineralize my teeth, usually celery. I brush my teeth and gums with a hydroxyapatite toothpaste which also has xylitol in it, or sometimes I just brush with coconut oil. I follow with a mouthrinse which also has those things as well as silver and some herbs, or sometimes rinse with salt water. Then no eating anything after that before bed. My mouth feels super clean and my teeth feel stronger. Oh an I use xylitol gum occasionally too. Also waiting for tooth regenerative technology which is definitely out there but not readily available. I'll post a video someday if I'm ever able to heal my existing caveties naturally 😅
Awesome! Yea I’m the same I don’t use the chemical products either. I have to stay natural to be pain free but it does work for some people. Healing is very personal isn’t it! Thank you for sharing. The toothpaste sounds interesting, I’ve heard it a few times now. Defo make a video of you have wins!
@@tomnaturalI didn’t use fluoride for years and was very wary of the products Dr Ellie recommends. I did a lot of digging and realize that she recommends sodium fluoride and not stannous fluoride - very different. I also thought back to my childhood dentists who were still healthy active and seeing patients into their 70s and 80s and those men were up to their arms in fluoride, mercury etc.
So flash forward, I am doing her program using everything she recommends including the toothbrushes and my gums and teeth are dazzling, strong and beautiful. I have one cavity near the base of a tooth and it is filling in! Remarkable results. My husband is super skeptical but saw my results and ordered Dr Ellie’s books and Zellie’s mints and gums.
Thank you for sharing your experience 😁👏
My pleasure 😊
Xylitol works! I rinsed with it and kept it in my mouth. The next morning, I couldn't see through the tips of my teeth. It works fast.
wow that fast, great!
Thank you for sharing your story ! I hope you and your teeth feel better.
Similar to what you mentioned, I fast a lot and eat plenty of fruits. I had no teeth problems throughout my life till 3 years ago when a small cavity appeared. Just a month ago I got my first teeth filled and feeling so guilty to my teeth. However I’m glad to have discovered Dr. Ellie’s mouth care system and xylitol. I’m on day 3, and I have less frequent sensitivity issues.
Thank you! Glad it’s working for you too!
That’s a great point, the sensitivity is probably the most supportive benefit using Xylitol. Thinking back just 6 weeks ago my teeth were most certainly more sensitive. I could feel it when I brushed. Best of luck
Glad to hear you also are using Dr. Ellie’s protocol. 1)Swish with antibacterial mouthwash, I use Cepacol 2) Brush teeth, she suggests Florida toothpaste, I don’t due to autoimmune 3) use Xylitol gum or mints I believe their about 5gram weight, but I also use the sugar. About 1/4-1/3 t. My teeth have improved in color and hardness. They are also studying xylitol for osteoporosis.
Where do you GET your xylitol? I’ve checked in quite a few stores and no luck. Did you try making homemade mints? I am concerned large doses can throw off my hormones, AND would love a small piece before sleep!
Btw I did try the closys and felt it was actually wicked killing so many good bacteria in the mouth. This video is very insightful, thank you.
@@joannecraft6471 Dr Ellie’s suggest not alternating the products in her oral care system. There is a good scientific rationale behind them in the exact order and ingredients.
@@jeanettebrooks1963 in US I bought granulated xylitol it from a nearby grocery store. Haven’t tried homemade mints/gums. Closys is great mouthwash because it provides oxygen to anaerobic bacteria which are the big culprits behind plaque and cavities. This will reduce the population of bacteria over the period of time with repeated use. Xylitol will supplement good bacteria growth and eventually there will be a balanced, healthy oral microbial population and biofilm in the mouth.
You can import all of the items Dr Ellie recommends into Thailand - or into any country - plenty of people selling them all online.
no I wasn’t able to but I’ve shifted to a more natural approach that works better for my individual biology. Links in description
Thanks for sharing. But could you clarify how you take xilotol? Do you take a teaspoon of it and swish it in your mouth for 5 minutes after eating ?.
How I take Xylitol - After eating every meal (and often drinks especially juices, teas or coffee) I gently rinse with water (if available) then take a 1/4 teaspoon of the grains (about 2 grams) and allow the saliva to be drawn into my mouth. As the grains of xylitol dissolve I swish the mixture around my mouth and teeth using my tongue. I do this 5-7 times a day. The advised total amount for maximum benefit is approximately 10-12 grams. 1/4 tsp is approximately 2-3 grams. There isn’t said to be any danger in taking more (possible laxative effects) but less than 10 grams in studies made less of an impact. The Streptococcus bacteria is the one that xylitol targets, they produce a lot of acid that damages the teeth. They hide in the holes. Thanks for asking!
Great, I appreciate your reply 👍 , lastly what toothpaste did you use during the 6 months ?
You can buy chewing gum with xylitol in it
Thank you for generously sharing your experience - just what I needed.
Dr Ellies refer to her system worth your time! ua-cam.com/video/tXZbmz6kBUU/v-deo.html&si=MpkdjJipBPCJl-FM
Am in the recession problem. Get compliments on my teeth all the time. But there are many things we do like lemon water, peroxide cleaning products all attribute to getting rid of your biofilm which is yr protective defense mechanism to all the problems of unhealthy teeth and gums, no comprehensive dental procedures or treatments needed. These things can cause other ailments worse in your body.
She makes a lot of sense at least take the time before it’s too late.
Try to add coconut oil pulling. I heard sauerkraut is high in vit c and is good for teeth. My grandson going through the same thing. I think its hereditary. Order PUR gum. It has xylitol. There is a toothpaste and mouthwash that also contain it. I'll get back with you. Oh, and I just found out Mentos gum has it! It is listed as the main ingredient. $7.10 for 120 pieces. Says 1pc is a serving.
yes I like coconut oil pulling, I use David’s toothpaste and PUR gum or mints sometimes. I get them from iHerb (international) which I have posted a link in the description if anyone is interested. thank you for your comment.
Thank you for the information. Your approach seems to make a lot of sense. We had started with another system, using xylitol gum, pastilles, Closys, crest, etc., very detailed. We followed it to a tee and after 1-2 months our teeth (2 people) started to develop dark brownish stains and became difficult to floss (seemed like tartar), We asked for help in the comments and didn’t hear back from the author, so we stopped everything. Haven’t been back to a hygienist yet. Other viewers were kind enough to reply, however the suggestions ranged from “stop everything “ to “it’s happened to me also”, etc. Are you able to comment, will these darker spots disappear as the treatment progresses? We like your system, it seems much simpler. Thank you!
Hi, I also got some brown stains mainly on the inside of my teeth and around some fillings while doing Dr Ellie's protocol. What I felt I was doing wrong: I was using very little amount of Listerine, as I didn't like it at all. When I increased the quantity of Listerine rinse, the brown stains diminished and I hope to disappear in the future. I'm continuing the protocol only because my teeth and gums feel much stronger than before (been doing this for 6 months now). Hope this helps.
It’s such a tricky road to travel down because there seems to be so many different factor involved depending on the person. I stopped animal products in 2014 and slowly watched my teeth get weaker. I personally look on UA-cam at people like Dr Berg, Dr Mark Hyman and others with a that natural approach. Sugars have played a big roll for me and I suspect a lack of certain vitamins and minerals that naturally occur in animal products. For me I am using good quality supplements, a low carb and sugar diet, lots of leafy greens, low or no alcohol and exercise plus the Xylitol. I do intermittent fasting too so I often only eat within a 6 hours window each day which has made a big difference in lessening plaque. Mamma wellness is another lady who speaks about remineralisation of teeth. With that focus I’m sure you’ll find some answers. I’ve not had dark spots close up so I have to have them filled at this point. I hope you find your answers! Good luck
The only product I am using is Xylitol. I’m not drawn or have access to any of the other recommendations. Sorry I can’t help more with that:)
thank you so much for sharing your eperience. I am also trying it daily, fingers crossed.
I have an updated video very soon as it’s been 3 months now and I am making a lot of a changes
Thx for this. Me too! So much dental work. Will try this
Best of luck! I also incorporate Dr Dome’s work, a biological dentist and functional medicine practitioner from Germany.
Im from india and none of the Dr.Ellies dental products are available here on Amazon...plz tell can i use Xylitol granules???
Yes you can use xylitol granules. That is my preferred method. I carry a small bottle with me and use about 2 grams (1/4 teaspoon) after meals, or about 4-6 times a day in total. I get my from iHerb an international online supplement company. It’s possible they are in India. Here is a link if you’re interested.
www.iherb.com/pal/referral/MRL0677/overall?url=https%3A%2F%2Fth.iherb.com%2Fsearch%3Fkw%3Dxylitol%26rcode%3DMRL0677&rcode=MRL0677&
Good morning. I am afraid of dentist. At present I have a loose front and jaw teeth. I was searching for way to regrow my gums and I saw the effects of xylitol. This is two weeks I have being using Xylitol sweetener and the Xylitol chewing gums. My mouth is starting to feel different. I will use it for the next 6 months and let you know the effects.
With the aid of Xylitol you may like to find a biological approach to dentistry. A biological dentist will approach the teeth from a holistic perspective including lifestyle choices and diet. This maybe supportive. One example online (and there are many) is Dr Dome. Good luck!
Indeed, dentist don't show that info... i've replied mine that, since my gums are, after five years, finally better, thanks to Xylitol.
I replied her KINDLY why she never informed me about it?
And with an email, she threw me out... i'm still in shock... they do what they like, and lies in email as well to make me look bad so 'she is covered', it's insane... i've let so much work done with caveties, it does not stop, lost many teeth etc... outrageous. From Belgium. Sigh 😢
I hear you how fast the 'little thing' grows & it's on & on, no one, no one, ever gave me any info of vitamines, supplements, Xylitol, also cocnut oil swishing is really helpful.
It’s a real inner and outer journey to health! Congratulations for sticking at it and finding your way, takes strength and courage:)
Ty this was helpful, I just happened to buy xylitol gum!
Nice synch!
I'm from Sweden and yes, we have xylitol in everything. Mints, gum and toothpaste🦷
Amazing! Thank you for sharing!
And is there little decay in the Swedish population??
After you put the xylitol granules in your mouth how long do you keep it? And afterwards do you swallow it or spit it out?
see the next video for this info, pops up at the end.
Holland & Barrett do a Xylitol gum called Peppersmith peppermint gum.
I think I tried them when I was in the uk. Do they do a lemon flavour, that was my favourite
Lemon and strawberry flavour too
Cool video man, i have also recently started to dive deep into researching teeth health. Ill tell you my routine to provoke thought and maybe we can juggle some ideas around.
I did dr ellies routine actually, for about 3 weeks but then i quit since the amount if flouride she was recommending was borderline insane. I get that it CAN work, but at what cost? We kinda know by now that its a neurotoxin 😂. So after i quit i've built my own routine from the ground up.
In the morning the first thing i do, after drinking water, is scrape my tounge and then brush my teeth using a nano soft toothbrush (least abrasive toothbrush on the market) and nano-hydroxyapatite toothpaste (flouride alternative thats just another form of calcium, helps rebuild enamel). I do not wash my mouth with water after brushing, so an edible toothpaste is desirable. At night, same thing but floss (using non plastic floss) before brushing, and during to get the paste in between the teeth.
During the day i use the xylitol after meals, the same way you do it. I also avoid eating and drinking much during 12pm-6pm since thats when our salive is most healing.
I also oil pull using coconut oil 2 hours after my first morning meal. Just do it for about 10-15 minutes.
Diet wise i eat a lot of raw food, such as raw cheeses and expecially aged gouda which has lots of vit k2. For vit A and D i eat about a teaspoon of fermented raw cod liver oil with my meals and with my meals i also always eat loads of butter. Sometimes i forget to eat the cod liver so i just eat a few raw eggs. They also contain high amounts of vit A and vit D. I use raw honey as my only sweetener. I try avoid fruit but summers coming up so i will keep pushing on with the xylitol.
I think, other than diet change of course, xylitol is the number 1 thing most people can do to help their oral health. Your absolutely right, dentists do not want the majority to know 😬
Forgot to mention, I don't swallow the xylitol. I know they say it helps with the micro biome but i have also heard from others that it disrupts it. I choose to spit it out afterwards and I just eat an avocado a day for microbiome benefits.
Good to hear how your routine goes! I write down the toothpaste fluoride alternative and will keep an eye out for that. Yea the diet is a super important part but it’s so personal 😊 Thanks for sharing!
Haven't tried Xylitol, but Dr Phillips inspired me to start using Listerine mouthwash regularly, which has worked a treat, after only a few days.
I’m continuing to have good results from Xylitol. If you get curious, then it’s worth a go, good luck
Does she recommend alcohol free listerine? I have read bad things about alcohol in mouthwash on the oral cavity.
I have gum recessed & stains on the teeth after 5months of using Dr. Phillips’s complete mouth system because of alcohol Listerine. Therefore, I have to give up using it. It’s not for everyone.
@@Mermaidlife97 She recommends the original formual which is highly acidic, but you have to immediately rinse with ACT anti-cavity to neutralize your mouth. The listerine helps to kill bacteria that forms plaque
@@andrewmontague1339 Thank you! Good to know because I have always used ACT but would switch on and off with others
Thanks for this information🍀
My pleasure, very welcome. Thanks for commenting ✨
Thank you so much for this video...I just came across Dr Ellies program about 2 weeks ago...I am in my 60's and the past 4 years have been a dental nightmare...I think I have developed dry mouth and as a result I am having cavities every time I go to the dentist and needing crowns, etc...I am anxious to try just the plain xylitol as the mints from Dr Ellie are a bit strong in flavor and I need something I can take in the middle of the night that is bland...Thank you again and hope you continue to get the good results!
I’m really glad you found support in the video. Ultimately that’s what this is all about. I don’t have the answers but at least by sharing and being interested we can find new ways through. I hope you find some peace on your teeth journey. I’ve recently found a lot of support doing daily meditation for the detachment and increase in mindfulness. I think this plays a very large roll in the process and what we are learning in healing. Wishing you the best
Good video man..I'm gonna order some now
It’s been 4 months now and I’m still using it daily. Cutting out the sugar is super important in my experience and using xylitol is a way to support that. Another teeth friendly sweet option is Glycine. An amino acid. I’m trying to get some out here in Thailand. Once I do I’ll share a video if it works. Thanks for the comment! Best of luck
Hello, your video is so timely. I am following Dr Ellie’s program. Want to do the Master Cleanse program where you drink a mixture of fresh lemon juice, water, maple syrup and cayenne pepper six to seven cups per day.
Wondering if Dr Ellie had any advice on how to counter any effects of drinking a beverage containing fresh lemon juice?
Appreciate any feedback you may have.
Thank you.
Yea I totally understand where you’re coming from. I’ve done the master cleanse too and it does require quite an acidic hit on the teeth. I think if your teeth are strong and you do this once it’s not going to be too bad. I would rinse with baking soda and then use the xylitol after to rebalance the alkalinity whilst inviting mineral rich saliva back in if I were doing this again 😊
I’ve done years of fasting and lemon juice was always involved. I think this, along with nit supplementing, was what strongly influenced my tooth challenges. I got a bit obsessed with detoxing…. There are worse addictions lol
My suggestion is that if you do decide to do the cleanse, address the alkalinity of the mouth after each drink. And also I know it’s not advised but I find that coconut oil pulling puts a type of shiny barrier around my teeth after pulling for a bout 5-10 mins. That might also be a tool you could try during the cleans before drinking the mixture.
Hope that helps!
thanks, brother!
My pleasure!
Bro, i have a question. I saw someone's video in which he is saying that Xylitol causes heart disease. Is it true? Pls reply.
I reposted a short by dr dome explaining how the xylitol study was fixed. The mice were giving a huge dosage which was said to be something like 10 times the safe amount for human consumption. You can find the video in my shorts or go to dr dome on Instagram. cheers.
Thanks for the video. 2 Questions: 1. What is the reason that you link to Dr Todd Ovokaitys? 2. The link for "Xylitol Mints (clean Swiss made)" is for gum and not mints. Is there a better link?
Thanks
Oh thanks for letting me know! Yea I’ll get that corrected straight away!
in the video I mentioned laser treatment - Dr Todd Is the guy who is working with regenerative Laser treatment for the activation of stem cell natural healing.
Oh damn it's a bummer that you can't get all the products she recommends. Could always use a transhipment service like purchase from US sites and have it shipped to you. But totally agree I think get some xylitol in 4-5 times a day. Definitely after any kind of eating is going to help so much. Hope your teeth will remain good for you.
I was a little disappointed at first but now 3 months later I’m finding that my body does much better without the chemicals. Some people do really well on the full protocol but I managed to get the toothpaste and it burnt my gums. I’m having to be quite strictly natural:) It so interesting that we all have different needs but the main thing is that we find our personal healing and the sharing part is really helpful so thanks for your comment!
You’re right. Except about dentists not wanting to help their patients. There may be some dentists that are sleeze bags. Sleeze bags exist everywhere. My dentist tells every patient about the benefits of xylitol as well as other protective methods like oil pulling and diet modification to improve their oral health.
Where is your dentist located? You are so blessed to have them!
yea absolutely, it’s not the dentists, it’s the business mindset of the individual and corporation behind it.
Sooooo rare!
I'm doing the same thing. I'm hoping I can reverse two small cavities.
Best of luck!
Xylitol gives me digestive problems unfortunately, i try to just swish and spit out after few minutes. My mouth feels good after it , lowers the inflammation
You found a way to benefit 👍
So you mix the few grams of xylitol with water and drink it after each meal?
I go straight in with the xylitol granules 2 grams after each meal or 4-6 times a day is a recommendation from a study.
I'm 3 months into the same thing, the only change I have noticed is the bad taste and smell in the morning decreased dramatically, as far as repairing gums and exposed tooth, nothing yet. I can see the exposed teeth roots on few of my teeth, so no change so far, but I'm going for the full 6 months, we'll see
Yea same! I think that it’s a holistic approach and there are many factors that can improved to support the healing. I like Dr Dome, he uses a holistic dentist approach which works better for me. thanks for sharing, good luck too!
So after you put a little X in your mouth after a meal and swish it around a bit, do you then spit it out or do you swallow it? And is that the only time you use it and is that the only change you’ve made? I suddenly have been getting Dr Ellie’s videos in my feed and appreciate seeing yours as well. 👍
I’ve explained all that in the comments and the following video 😊
I noticed Mentos gum has xylitol as it's sweetener. Does it actually remineralise you teeth?
It’s more to do with the mineral in the saliva and this is effected by a good clean alkaline diet. It needs to be a holistic approach but the Xylitol is a great support.
Be careful with salt water rinse, that can dry out your enamel and damage it. Also salt water will kill good ans bad bactria.. maybe reduce to 2-3 times per week.
Also for any which experiences senstivity while using xyliyol thats normal, its endothermic so provides a cooling sensation..
That’s really helpful. Thanks you

Legat de clatirea cu apa sarata, poate avea acelasi efect sa usuce smaltul si sa-l deterioreze si la clatirea cu apa cu bicarbonat de sodiu ?
didnt understand - what exactly do you do with the xylitol??? besides put it in the drink as a sweetener.... do you rinse your mouth after eating?? with xylitol water?
Taking XYLITOL For TEETH & GUM Health - How? When? Why?
ua-cam.com/video/w9Uj0xTqCIA/v-deo.html
I love UK accent. Much love from the US and learning from someone who is using it. I just went through dental hell as well. Also I drink my coffee through a straw and never from the cup anymore. Same with hot teas. You can buy some unique straws online🎉
Haha I’m just drinking my coffee with a spoon this morning as I read this! The straw works better for me when it’s cold, I think, but I’m going to try it now! Thanks for the comment ⭐️
How do you you use it. Just a spoon and cheewing it?
next video explains, pops up at the end.
Another good thig is iodine, i use Lygol's i think it's called. One drop on your toothbrush each time, very good for oral hygiene.
thanks for sharing! That’s a new one for me
@@tomnatural My pleasure :) I checked the bottle it's Lugol's iodine.
Saliva will remineralize the teeth?? What is in it that would mineralize!??
Minerals
@@tomnaturalpls don't fool people. xylitol does not contain minerals. Xylitol is a refined sweetener that is a sugar alcohol, and it is made from trees and plant fibers, so it does not contain vitamins, minerals, or protein
But still I´m a bit confused wether we should first brush the teeth and then the sugar, or we should avoid brushing them? also the filling of having some food in between the teeth, makes me feel that only xyletol is not enough. I don´t like these mouth rinsings she proposes. Btw, I´ll start swallowing it;)
I’m not a fan of the mouth washes either. I prefer natural like salt water solutions and coconut or sesame oil pulling. I’m not suggesting you swallow the xylitol but i do at this point in time with no known negative effects 😊
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Do you also use Dr. Ellie's system with all those chemical products? I tried the system, bought all her products, but it DRIED out my mouth extremely, my mouth felt like a desert, I woke up at night and could barely swallow. So I stopped using the products but continue using the xylitol. I am wondering if anyone had the same experience?
Unfortunately we cannot buy the Zellies in Europe, so for now I use the pure xylitol😊
I do not use Dr Ellie’s other products. I have too much of a pull towards nature and any chemical product disagrees with me. I tried the toothpaste and it burnt my gums. I like Dr Dome, he uses functional medicine and comes from a biological dentistry approach which is basically holistic and natural. He includes oil pulling and I agree. Thanks for sharing! And yea I use the crystals mostly too but need them less and less the better my diet (less sugar).
Thsnk you😊
im sad too, im scared to travel because of my fillings and ive already had some fall out. Do you think youll ever travel again?
Yea absolutely! My confidence is riding again. It’s a combination of cutting sugar, exercise and healthy lifestyle. Improving all areas of life is my intention. I enjoy biohackers like Garry Brecka for motivation. Just finished a free 3 day water fast online. The Ultimate Human - get involved!
@@tomnatural what do you do if your traveling and a filling falls out? Its scary to think about and really upsets me. I personally just cant travel but I really want to though :(
Do you dilute the xylitol or do you put the granules straight into your mouth?
I put the xylitol granules directly into my mouth. About 1\4 teaspoon - 2 grams after meals and drinks (Up to 6 times a day).
@@tomnaturalthanks for your response. Do you spit it out after
Do you take a certain amount after you eat or drink?
Yes I take approximately 2 grams at a maximum of 6 times a day after meals and drinks. Studies from Dr Ellie Phillips course say that any more than 12 grams a day will not improve the effects but less than 6 grams a day will lessen the effects. Best results showed from taking Xylitol in small doses 4-6 times. That’s what the studies show 😊
Is there a link for a good xylitol to buy?
In the description box. Or if buying locally try to find organic if you can.
One of Joe Rogan's Doctor friends also mentioned this. Pure Gum is sweetened w/ it . I like !
cool!
Thanks bro . Does this help in growing gums back and to treat bleeding gums. Iam sick and tired of flossing everyday .
You might want to go a bit deeper. I like Dr Dome. He is a functional medicine practitioner and biological dentist. His approach could be very supportive. Definitely look him up!
Dr. Ellie says we should STOP flossing!
I'm going to try adding the xylitol and the other Dr. Ellie recommendations. Something she doesn't use that I do already though is a good tooth powder. I have one from OraWellness that has micro only hydroxyapatite and it definitely helps. The nano stuff works great too but I'm skeptical of things that are nano as they can easily enter your cells. I think they do clear as they are natural unlike something like titanium dioxide or other un natural nano particles, but the micro works well enough anyway. Hoping that with adding in the xylitol I can start to reverse my gum recession also. The hydroxyapatite certainly helps to stabilize them so maybe using both will actually begin to fully reverse the damage.
That’s good to know! I’ve just ordered a toothpaste (David’s) that has hydroxyapatite! I kept hearing about it but I couldn’t remember what it’s was called. Thanks for sharing and best wishes with your success!
@@tomnatural The Davids is a nano type. (Again it definitely works and some have more nano than others, I with all my health issues already am avoiding the nano just in case). The best nano I think I found was Dr. Jen's. I personally have been using non nano Risewell and I like it. The Davids iirc is pretty good also. The only things I could find to rebuild actual enamel other than Vitamin D / your own body (which it can) was a hard to obtain protein dental product but only a dentist can order it. It's made to be applied directly to early cavities whatever they are called I can't remember. Safe because it's the same protein your body makes to facilitate enamel production theoretically. Of course it seems they can do that with stem cells also and it would really be nice if the FDA didn't totally screw stem cell applications in the US. I'm sure they could be growing people entirely new teeth if we had real medicine and not endless corruption and for profit.
