I’ve come across this system before but I really appreciate how you explained it all fully but simply & quickly. I saw a comment that says up cannot substitute the Listerine mint but that’s false. I have seen generic brands with the same ingredients including percentages on the essential oils for much cheaper. Same for ACT.
Aloha, Dr. !! You are the only doctor after doctor Ellie who talks about this great system. Also, you explain that it is 5 times a day using the xylitol. I was not using it 5 times a day. Now I understand. It has helped me a great deal after I started using this sugar. Thanks fir helping and sharing your knowledge.
As for the xylitol sugar substitute, do not dissolve in water. Use a small amount such as 1/4 teaspoon and dissolve on tongue with your saliva which will give you the best effect.
But doesn't Listerine kill the good bacteria in your mouth? The purpose of Closys is to help balance the ph level in your mouth. Do any of the products you use afterwards disrupt that balance?
You're right, however, after Listerine you rinse with Act, that will balance the acidity. Also, after you finish don't eat or drink anything for 1-2 hours. It's really amazing, The alcohol feels like it burns when you start Listerine, but, after a few days it drastically reduces.
Act puts fluoride back on the teeth after the listerine step. Xylitol after any snack meal or juice, or if ur mouth gets dry after brushing teeth it’s ok to take it after the fluoride is out of your mouth.
What mouth wash can you recommend to replace act mouth wash because it's not available in the UK, and the only site I found it, it cost £17 which is about pricey for mouth wash. Thanks
Look for any neutral/alkaline mouthwash, as the pH of Listerine is soo acidic you need something to neutralize it. Google the article "What is the Best Alkaline Mouthwash?" by Central Point Family Dentistry - it has a chart with plenty of brand examples.
I started Dr Ellie’s Mother care system about two month’s ago and I’m finding that my teeth are staining more than they ever have. I’m a little concerned about what’s going on and wondering if I should stop using the products her products.

Hi what I wondered is what is the point of using some of the products (yes I get why one would want to use the Closys and xylitol) but half the products, particularly the Listerine and toothpaste for that matter is going to be washed away straight away ? Is there any back up in science to this method ? Also can I get away with not using the Listerine if I have to take one out as the cost mounts up to use these products all the time, particularly if some have a minimal effect after being washed straight after ?
Still cheaper than the dentist. Using the ACT (Flouride) after the Listerine makes the Flouride more effective since it reacts better in an Acidic environment. The brushing part with the crest main job is for you to massage and stimulate your gums with the toothbrush (he doesn't show it) but Doc Ellie recommends this inner and outer gums. Search her UA-cam. Overall this Doc gives decent advise and gives Doc Ellie her due I'd add the tongue scraper but floss nope - unless i can't get the stuck food out in between the teeth etc.
@@tinkymcginnis actually it has the lowest abrasive level on the RDA scale (the scale for determining how abrasive something is) next to water. Now does my question make more sense?
@@tinkymcginnis every national dentistry association. It's not disputed, you can easily right now look up RDA chart for teeth. You'll see baking soda is a seven on the scale while water is a 4. Toothpaste range from 50 to 250 and thus are far more abrasive than baking soda. The other advantage of baking soda is that it's extremely alkaline and neutralizes acid in the mouth
There is recent research that has found relation between cardiovascular diseases and use of mouthwash, in the logic that the bacteria in mouth provide much needed nitric oxide to prevent high blood pressure and mouthwash destroys these bacteria leading to high blood pressure and consequently cardiovascular diseases. Maybe this is why Dr. Ellie emphasizes the importance of good nutrition, especially for sufficient intake of sources of nitrics, though, without explaining why she recommends that. And that, I didn't like about her...
Don’t ever use listening at all. pHway below 7. At pH is below 5.5 , enamel demineralizes. At pH between 6.2 and 6.4 exposed dentin erodes. Exposed dentin means the root surface is showing. Listerine pH is somewhere below 4.5 depending on who you read. Massaging gum has no therapeutic effect on oral health.
Salt water and baking soda won't give you perfect mouth microbiome and health. Enjoy your periodontal disease. Take an Oral DNA test -- that's the ultimate test for your mouth health. You won't get good health from baking soda and water.
@@Palpatine4SenateRight doctor now youre recommending processed sugar for healthy teeth, good job, flouride is very bad for you, you should know better 👎
This is the exact same method as Dr. Ellie Phillips but she adds to massage the gums while you brush your teeth and no flossing needed.
It's exactly the same except she recommends NEVER to floss. He should really acknowledge her as his source. 🙂
How did your dentist ect not pick
Up on your periodontal disease ?!!!
Fourteen years is a very long time to not notice something is wrong . 🤔
@@veronicaharwick9013 Yes he should give her credit. I still floss. It all depends on the individual's teeth alignment.
@@Evermore2017Hahaha, hello dentist!
And ONLY use Listrrine cool mint or original NOT OTHER products. Also xylitol is NOT an artificial sweetener, it's natural.
Shout out to Dr. Ellie 😊🎉❤
Proves she's doing everything right! ❤
I love Dr Ellie’s method ❤️
Dr Ellie Phillips started this message 40 years ago and says NO to floss and I agree with her
Why is he not giving her credit as if he created it.
Yeah I don't respect that he's not crediting Dr Elie for this.
I literally just finished watching a video of hers where she says you can floss but only once in a while
Yes, she said you can floss gently but she is not a fan😊
i follow Dr Ellie also
This is Dr Ellie Phillips method. I watched her video. This stuff works!
I wonder who that dentist was that you were inspired by 10 years ago. Credit where credit due
Dr. Ellie, but thank you i appreciate the time that you put in this information. God bless you
Thank you for your informative presentation. 🙂

Can u tell me about the substitue for act?
@gurnoorsaini1453 it's colgate fluorigard fluoride rinse
Aloha, Dr. !!
You are the only doctor after doctor Ellie who talks about this great system. Also, you explain that it is 5 times a day using the xylitol. I was not using it 5 times a day. Now I understand.
It has helped me a great deal after I started using this sugar. Thanks fir helping and sharing your knowledge.
This is more than 3 steps but is exactly the same as Dr. Ellie's oral care system, except for the flossing.
As for the xylitol sugar substitute, do not dissolve in water. Use a small amount such as 1/4 teaspoon and dissolve on tongue with your saliva which will give you the best effect.
6 products so 6 steps. Very informative thank you. Aloha ❤
What a great informative video! 👍🏻
Can you suggest an alternative to the last mouth wash as it stains any work or restoration in resins on your teeth. It will be much appreciated
Fluorigard mouthwash to replace Act mouthwash
But doesn't Listerine kill the good bacteria in your mouth?

It's really amazing, The alcohol feels like it burns when you start Listerine, but, after a few days it drastically reduces.
Look at her video total mouth care system on UA-cam and it explains it
No it doesn't. Listerine only selectively destroys the bad bacteria strains in your mouth. Listerine is NOT an antibiotic or anything like it.
@@emanuelsarbu7070do you rinse with water after the ACT or just spit it out and done?
@@grantlinscottit’ll explain on the bottle. You do not rinse off the ACT
Thank you! Please, what is the purpose of using the Act at the end? Remineralization? We use xylitol after the Act as the last step or after meals?
Act puts fluoride back on the teeth after the listerine step. Xylitol after any snack meal or juice, or if ur mouth gets dry after brushing teeth it’s ok to take it after the fluoride is out of your mouth.
Thank you for the video!
Thanks!
1. Floss 2. Closys 3. Brush and scrape tongue 4. Brush teeth 5. Rinse with Listerine 6. Use ACT 7. Xylitol mints. 3 steps?
Xylitol is deadly to dogs FYI.
Thank you for the dog info.
Thank you for the dog info.
I don’t think the listerine is necessary because the closis is already an antiseptic, but that is my opinion
@@Tendertroll1yes, it is important to do the whole sequence.
Thanks doctor for the good information. You were very specific now I get it.❤😊
Hi thank you!
Can you give us an alternative to Closys? Please❤
UltraDEX.
Ultradex in the UK.
- 9:38 Oh… and who might that woman dentist be that has a system you really like..? Maybe Dr Ellie Phillips..?
Can we use xylitol mouthwash during the day instead of the mints? Must xylitol be swallowed? Thanks
What mouth wash can you recommend to replace act mouth wash because it's not available in the UK, and the only site I found it, it cost £17 which is about pricey for mouth wash. Thanks

Mouthwash will stain your teeth.
I accidentally bought gel flavor instead of regular. Does it matter or does it have to be regular flavor?
It matters, paste is better
Same here it looked alike.

he already said he picked it up from her, listening is a lost thing with people like u
I’m so confused 😐. Just watched another video. Periodontist over 40 recommend don’t use any mouthwash.

Dam use all this
Any idea about the tongue or does this system take care of that.
I have two implants teeth. In that case can I use fluoride mouths wash …
Yes
So one Says to Floss and the other doesnt ?? Hmmmmmm
Can you use xylitol as a sweetener in your coffee?. I mean, does it count towards your 6 ounces?
That seems too dilute. Skip sweetener in your coffee and then do the xylitol after coffee.
Just in case, fluoride and xylitol are very toxic to pets.
This video was up 3 years ago Dr. Eli's dental was a year ago
Dr ellie has been promoting her system for decades, I myself have followed it for 15 years
This is nothing more than plagiarism. Dr Ellie Phillips has been doing a very similar program for 40 years.
I noticed that too 🤔. He’s copied her entire program. 🤦🏽♀️
its not plagiarism, get a grip. He said he picked it up from her and likes to share it with his patients, listening is an important skill
