I use all the products in your system. I want to thank you for saving my smile. My pocketing is practically gone. I had pockets of 4-5. You are AMAZING ❤❤❤❤
Please can you tell me Dr Ellie 'S mouth care system should be use after breakfast ya before and how much difference between breakfast and mouth care system
@@mariegeelan7636 Wow. I have 4 pockets that are 5 & 6. I have all the products, but I've been hesitant to start the system because I drink a lot of liquid in the day due to taking a prescription water remover. I don't want to brush my teeth 15 times a day. Do you brush after every time you drink something?
Had my first 'deep clean' and my mouth was in agony for a few days. Dentist said I had a cavity, too. Did some research and I am proud to say after a year and a half my cavity reversed and now I am working on my gum line massages. Had to really rethink how I eat and drink every day - but the results are too amazing to ignore! Dr. Ellie and her knowledge will be celebrated for a long, long time.
@@LivingFreeTv123 How my system works and how it is actually your BODY that does this healing - this is the topic of the new SECOND edition of KISS Your Dentist Goodbye. Available in bookstore and on Amazon now.
Hey dr. In one of your video I read a comment of someone and he claims that he daily after brushing let the toothpaste on his teeth for atleast 15 min and within a week he reversed his cavity can this is possible and safe to do@@dr.elliephillips
I have two pockets in my mouth that have gone down and are almost completely gone. I've been using the mouth care system for six months plus the cinnamon xylitol, which is delicious and I also bought the toothbrush she recommends and sells on her website, which is fabulous. It feels good on my gums and feels like I'm flossing when I'm just brushing. My husband uses the mouth care system as well and has noticed all his sensitivity is gone.
@@PokerFace837 there's only one type of xylitol on a molecular level, brand doesn't matter and it doesn't matter whether it's from trees or corn etc. You could even use granulated.
Well, i was a biologist so I LOVE your description. Glad I never knew this 20 yrs ago and just let those pockets grow and eat my bone and you know the story. But now im nearly 60 so i will try my best to follow ur instructions. Love from Sydney ❤.
On your protacal for 6 weeks, really seeing a difference already. Went to get teeth cleaned as i have had serious problems and plaque build up. She said my gums looked better plaque was softening up..im expecting a complete turnaround over time and daily consistency...thank you so much..i have hope!

I really started understanding of hygiene and dental disease through your videos, you solved many questions of us through your informative videos, I changed my dental hygiene routine, I hope I will never needs dentist any more. Thank you very much for your hard efforts for awareness. Thanks
My pleasure. You may really enjoy the new SECOND edition of my book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye. You’ll understand the process and maybe find it interesting to learn HOW it works.
Been using your system partially for a year. Mouth feels cleaner! Got black between my teeth, you said was normal. That is getting better. I used OTC Xylitol at first overnight for few nights until I got an infection. Stopped that. Use various brushes. My severe mouth pain has been reduced. Yay! I have had pain last couple years after a first level deep cleaning. I also have material from a crown forced down one tooth canal. Now they want to do yet a deeper cleaning and all sorts of other stuff. NO! It's ridiculous! I smoke and drink coffee/water all day. Going to get your recommended brushes and implement mints during day to complete my regiment. Hard to wait 60 minutes! 🙂 I need to get the crown checked for decay underneath. UGH! All crowns appear black at gum line. Should I a get a simple cleaning to to clean dark between front teeth? Hoping your system helps reverse all the damage they've done! THANK YOU!
❤ this video! I've always taken great care of my teeth, according to mainstream Dentists. Now, at 60, I have some 6-7 pockets. I'm going to revisit your protocol massage methods to ensure I'm getting max benefit from your system! I don't smile any more because I'm so self- conscious of discoloration, fillings and teeth starting to go crooked. Thank you !
You may enjoy the new SECOND edition of my book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye to help and encourage you on your journey. Get the correct MOUTHWATCHERS brushes and do great gum massage. Also remember the importance of mouth resting after the Zellie’s xylitol mints.
Dear Dr. Ellie, Do you have a video demonstrating the gum massage? Maybe on a fake model mouth? lol. I have gum recession due to years of harsh brushing (I think I corrected it), so the gum massage scares me. 😊 ~Ami P.S. I have my teens and myself on your mouth care system now. My youngest teen went in for a check up and it was perfect. We pay dental out of pocket, (self-employed), so the cost of the system saves lots on dental care. I love it! I keep Zelliies in the kids lunch boxes, they love that. Thank you!
Thank you so much, Dr. Ellie. You explain this all so well. I'm happy to report, that since using your system, I've been able to reverse a gum pocket I had. This question is off topic, but, I once had access to Egyptian mummies when I worked at a museum. These had all their teeth intact and without decay of any kind, even though the teeth were very well abraded. Mostly in their 40's when they died. No teeth missing. So, it makes me wonder, is it our diet now, that causes our problems. Things like processed foods and sugar. Those mummies didn't drink soda, for instance. I appreciate your videos!!
@@notagain779 it’s more about our meal patterns - yes constantly sipping and snacking. In my new second edition of KISS Your Dentist Goodbye book I talk about the fact that dentistry appears to be a respected profession in Egypt at the time of the Pharaohs. I also explain how effective chew sticks have been for thousands of years and the possible reasons why they work.
I had a root canal, as usual the dentist didn't get the whole root...got a blow out fistula went to another specialist he decided to scrape dead tissue from the fistula then sew it back up....got a huge infection.....had it pulled. Too many quack dentists out there.
@@dojocho1894 I’m sorry for this and I would say to anyone that ALL root canals MUST be done by endodontic specialists who do nothing but root canals all day long.
@@dr.elliephillips Thank your Dr for your reply I myself a physician, Cardiology here in Manhattan. The Endodontist was considered the top in my area. I knew there was a issue when he removed the filler after the procedure... blew air up in the canal and I jumped, he asked, do you feel that? I said yes in which he replied...I dont believe you can feel that. The tissue scraping was done by a maxillofacial Surgeon on Park Ave. I went to a different maxillofacial surgeon and he removed the tooth instantly with no pain. Finally a competent professional....in a field of "professionals"
@ I feel so sad to hear all the horror stories and in my career I caused damage to MY OWN KIDS though wrong information as I gave them fluoride during their early years of life - believing it was going to make their teeth beautiful. They all developed fluorosis and thyroid issues - which I wish never happened. I also put sealants on their teeth and extracted their wisdom teeth ( not my youngest- but the other four siblings) believing I was doing my best. No child should get sealants. No wisdom tooth should be extracted in a healthy mouth. Better health education is needed. A huge number(?? Most) DDS have lousy oral health and don’t know what to do about it.
I am 66 years old and ever since I have been using this program I have had no bleeding around my gums, Before I used to get some bleeding and sensitive areas. And I would use mouthwash and do extra things to stop the bleeding but for over two years now I have had no problems at all. And I'm getting older you would think things would be getting worse, not better but they have gotten better!
I really hope this is true. After religiously getting my cleaning every 6 months ( I am 56 years old ), I have one tooth with pocket #5. This is my fault for not being more proactive, taking care of my gums, and asking questions. My recent visit to a periodist said it would be $6,000 to fix my lower left side !! Today, I will begin Dr. Ellie's program. If anyone has additional tips please, please let me know. Thank you. Wish me luck !!
Remember, never rinse with water, only spit between steps. Watch a video as often as you can. Watch the long 5 step video many times and take notes. God Bless!
@@chroniclesofmuffin-whatever this lady is selling/ recommending get it .That deep cleaning that they recommend is a $ scam & a terrible torturing experience on top of it. It doesn't work. I did half my mouth about 25 years ago. I still ended up w/loose teeth emitted horrible odor when am stress , can't be close talking to people . Would've cost $1600 & the time 4 years later cost was $10000 . Whatever you Going to do get on it , make sure you brush @ 🛌 bedtime floss keep the debris out of 👄 , i find vitamins c help with the bleeding 🩸. Good luck take care of it. those massages works!
Just do her system and use zylatol. I had a diagnosis last Oct recommending a deep cleaning. I chose to use her system first and have been using it for almost 3 mos and I see a TREMENDOUS improvement! It's been very encouraging! I highly recommend using her system, plus a good diet. It's not expensive and IT WORKS! Just do it! 😂
What about post-menopause women, how the loss (shift) of hormones affect your gums. I waited in hopes it would be mentioned. What about some recession that happens without any bleeding/puffy gums for a woman in this period of her life who before then didn’t have that issue at all..healthy gums/teeth relationship. I’d really appreciate if you would talk on that bc more Going on for women that affects things. Thank you! I and girls also been a customer of your mints for about 4 months
Could you explain the science behind the action of tsp and stabilize chlorine dioxide in clo sis product. I looked on your website but could not locate an explanation. It would be beneficial to understand how who's two products work from the chemistry point of view. Your method is already helped my gums and teeth but I have a long way to go. I'm putting faith in your protocol.
Thank you very much, dr. Ellie for all the precious information. I am using your mouth care system for several months now and have a good difference. Please tell me if I have to wait 20 minutes after Closys, because I have pockets. Much appreciated.
I used ur complete mouth care system and oh my i couldn’t believe the result. Last January 2024, my dentist told me i have cavities and either get fillings or get a crown. I scheduled one for it and then after seeing your system, i called back my dentist and canceled the appointment for fillings. Then i started using it until i got pregnant. During pregnancy, i couldn’t do her step 3 and 4 but i will not skip step 1 and 2 daily with xylitol. After 6 months, i went in for teeth cleaning and the dentist said my teeth are looking good (not much build up) but bcoz i was pregnant, they couldn’t do xrays to check for cavities. Anyways, came January 2025, went in for teeth cleaning, they did xrays and oh my, there was no black spots on xray and dentist didn’t even mention about cavities or crown anymore. He Just told me everything is looking good and that be careful with my old fillings and not to chew hard stuff which can crack the teeth. I couldn’t even believe my ears. My cavities is gone and not only i save $, but i no longer need the crown!!! Soo happy with finding her videos!!! Thank you so much and your system definitely blew my mind. Growing up, my mom always told me not to get cavities because they are irreversible. I guess we have been lied to all along! Now, i have my whole family on this system and my parents love it!!! Still trying to convince my bro to get on it… he did half but dnt think he did the full system… oh well… it’s his loss. I need to make sure my parent’s teeth are strong so they can live longer!!
This is a great success story! Congrats to you and your parents and whole family !!👍🏼👍🏼 my family isn’t at all motivated to do the system, though I’ve been promoting it for 10 years with my success.
Hey miss your story actually motivated me to do her system Only one question I have that on 30 November 2024 i had a tiny hole on my front tooth which looks unnoticeable until someone looks very carefully and till now the hole is still there can i reverse it with system and if yes then in how many months
@DivyaGond-y6j i am not a dentist so i am not sure but tooth does rebuild with a proper care. So it might possibly work for you since her system also makes your teeth stronger. Good luck!!🍀
Hi Ellie, my dentist recommended a dental laser procedure. I'm not sure if it's the LANAP method-I don't think so-but it's supposed to kill all bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Would you recommend this method?
I have developed an allergic reaction to either the Listerine or the ACT. My top lip became very dry and the skin started to peel off. This began about 6 months into the program. I tried reducing the time to 30 seconds for each of the rinses but dried lip conditions returned. It’s actually quite painful. So I stopped using those two rinses. I’ve been using oil pulling since this issue began. What is your recommendation if I’m not able to tolerate the listerine nor the ACT? Using the closys for both before and after brushing? I also tried not to get any of the rinses on my upper lip. Should I use a water pick or flossing instead? Have you ever had a patient develop an allergy to these rinses before? Very disappointed that
Hi. My lips also started to get dry. After both the Listerine and the ACT, I just wash my lips with water. At night I put shea butter that has some Olive leaf extract in it and it totally went away. Also I read that dried lips can be lack of B6 so I have been taking that as well. Hope this helps you.
Hi Ellie Mam, I am massaging my gums regularly morning and evening before brushing on my teeth but I don't know if I am doing it correct way or not as I am currently not having any oral issue or disease to assess my technique on improvement parameters. Can I please get an confirmation if I am doing it correct. I massage my upper gums under my lips where the skin is too soft and same for lower gums. I do not msaage where the teeth meet gums or gum line but the under lips area inside and outside both.
Hello Dr. Ellie! I’ve been watching your videos, and was just thinking of going to the dentist because I have a cavity that is causing me pain. Do you think if I follow your suggested routine, the pain would go away in time and the cavity would heal? I’m very tempted to just go get the cavity filled in, but I’m also wondering if trying your method would be a better option 😊
Wow! I bought Ellie's products and in just two days...a lot of my staining is GONE! I honestly can't believe it. I had yellow areas at the base of some teeth or in between teeth and they are gone. I even got out my magnifying mirror and checked and yes...all gone. Unbelievable. It has GOT to be these products. I have had these stains for 15 years or so and am diligent with my oral care but the stains wouldn't go away. I didn't use whitening products as they burned my mouth but when I heard Dr. Ellie explain where and how staining occurred I was so curious if these products would activate as she said and remove them. It WORKS! I am proof. Now, I am going to keep it up and watch my pockets and gums improve. PS-Get the toothbrush she recommends on her Amazon recommendation. I have had a million different toothbrushes...but that has got to be the most soothing toothbrush I have ever used. It literally felt like a massage in my mouth. I LOVE it! Seeing really is believing when it comes to results! It WORKS!
After 6 months on your system, my pockets are greatly improved! At a dental appointment to remove some staining, the dentist said my teeth are very clean (no plaque), but bled more than they like. Is this possibly because I don't floss and my gums aren't used to being prodded and picked at?
What to do about a tongue coating that always comes back despite using the cmcs and xylitol for months? Is it just a matter of time for the microbiome to rebalance itself? Thank you for all that you do :)
Thank you for all the information, really hope it’s going to help me! I am a mom in mid 30s and already had 2 gum surgeries which are painful and expensive, my pockets will go down to 7-12 after the surgery they grow a little but not to 0-2. I would really appreciate if I can contact you with any help or extra advice ! Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤
@@katherinegordon8088I found everything I needed at Walmart except for the Zellies and tooth brushes. Found them on Amazon. Good luck. Her system works. I’m soon to be 75 years old and have reversed a tooth and gum turning grey in 6 months. My gums had been receding but now are all growing back. I ❤ her system. Good luck to you.
Closys = Ultradex. ACT = Fluoriguard . Peppersmith for xylitol. DrEllie.com for free downloadable booklet. Second edition of Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye = invaluable book to explain how this system supports natural healing and more…..
Dr.Ellie. I teared the gum from the tooth, when I was trying to massage my gums.😢. I have now not pocket but whole tooth shown even part of the bone. I think I need to go to the doctor to pull up and somehow fix the gum.....any recomendation please? I have at home only curaprox. It is helping...but I am starting to have a sore throath ...and running nose. With this I can not go to the doctor.... 😅 Help please. Send Angels or Santa...
So True. Body regrows, it knows what to do. Every time I cut off my tail...it pops back up! No, for real, you saved my teeth from an old school dentist who doesn't get it. Every point I brought up on your system with the Hygienist.. was argued as she "inspected" my teeth over 30 minutes, using most of the time to argue my points. I didn't let her scrape or blast with water , and at end they said, oh well, good luck, we'll be here when you have problems and charged me $250. Oh and Dentist handed me a pile of printouts of articles saying that intensive dental cleanings are necessary to avoid heart attacks and early death. No interest in what I was saying. I'd be worried but my gums have never been pinker or brighter. I have a few stains, but its not plaque. I've been doing Listerine as first rinse, is CloSys better than Listerine?
Total Sweet is £9.99 at Holland & Barratt shop in UK for 1 kg Xylitol from Birch trees. It is absolutely delicious and no horrible after taste. Good to cook with too.
There are 3 mouthwashes in the system. Listerine Act and the clysol? Do you use them everyday after each other? I need to try this system. I am going for another silver replacement cavity that is now causing a crack in tooth. I have pockets and recession.
After using Crestcavity toothpaste then rinse with listerine coolmint then rinse with amAct or Clysol then use xylatol ( optinal). Act & clysol is the same product with a different name😂
@@ZiKaz00123 Twice a day routine for optimal oral care: Start with Closys (or Ultradex in some countries), swish for 1 minute, then spit out. Brush with Crest Regular toothpaste, spit out, but do not rinse with water. Use Listerine, swish slowly, and try to reach 30 seconds, but spit out as soon as it starts to burn-this might be just a few seconds at first. Do not resist the pain, as that will make it worse. Finish with ACT anticavity (0.05%; or Fluorigard in some countries), swish for 1 minute, then spit out. Do not use water at any step except to moisten your toothbrush. Make sure you use xylitol after meals.
Dr. Ellie, I was diagnosed with a 7mm pocket. I've been using your system for a year. My question is I've missed a time or two, meaning wasn't able to do it in the morning but did it in the evening. How much damage am I doing to the oral biome I've created with your system? How quickly do all these bad bacteria return?
Finding similar products in India - is a giant exercise. I am finding similar ones - but not the exact same composition. And importing is pretty expensive. - Is there someone who has found the alternatives?
I have been using your system for about 3 months now. I notice that xylitol seems to make my mouth very dry. It stimulates saliva while I have mints etc in my mouth, but almost immediately after I'm dry. Any advice?
Dear Doctor, I have a question. IF is the same produkts act Total CARE = ACT anticavity? In Poland is problem of buying closys ultrasensitive and ACT anticavity.
I just started your complete mouth care system. I have some deep pockets. I know you’re not a fan of flossing but I get food bits stuck in there. Rinsing or swishing doesn’t seem to get all the bits out. Is it ok to gentle flow water floss to get the bits out before starting your 4 step routine? I mean water flossing once before bedtime routine so the bits come out.
@@monikaschwartz738 I’m not going to endorse that for a variety of reasons. Use the MOUTHWATCHERS brushes that I recommend and use these rather than string or water flossing. See in a few days and let me know what you think.
What do the "good" bacteria do? Does Listerine kill them? Does your total program work better for gum disease, or only those things mentioned here? Which mouthwash kills only the bad bactsria?
@@red-baitingswine8816 They have identified about 800-900 kinds of “good” mouth bacteria that do a variety of things including that they protect our teeth from harm and disease. Some even help lower our blood pressure, help our breathing and improve brain function! Important YES. Then there are two separated populations of mouth bacteria. A small number are “superficial” and wash away every time we drink a cup of water. The majority are woven into a film called biofilm - which is supposed to cover our mouths and protect our gums and teeth. 40% of biofilm develops during childhood so it’s VERY resilient. Too many “ influencers” jumped on a WRONG bandwagon and misunderstand mouth bacteria. Only Chlorhexidine is a concern for “good” bacteria as it is a powerful hospital grade antiseptic. Listerine is an essential oil mouth rinse and very mild and no effect on healthy biofilm. My book Mouth Care Comes Clean describes this in detail - or the new SECOND edition of KISS Your Dentist Goodbye which explains even more new science.
dr ellie mam ,pls suggest me that the cavity formed by receding gum on the tooth which has yet not reached to rootcanal ,then can we reverse that cavity with xylitol usage ?because i am doing chewing xylitol gums therapy and oil pulling therapy to reverse it.but just by doing so and waiting to get it reversed and not doing the treatment of filling cement which dentist already has told me to do ,and wasting days by sticking to these therapies and my tooth will reach to rootcanal becoz of not treating it by filling then ?so i am scared that what to do .
Please can you help I can’t find CloSIS on ebay - am in the UK and assume this is an American product. Can you recommend a similar Uk Product please? 😊

Hi Dr Ellie! I’ve been on your system for 3 weeks now including the toothbrushes. My gums were not sore before I started but now, when I brush, I’m feeling some significant tenderness in a couple of areas and some dark red/bleeding. It goes away a little while after brushing so I don’t feel the tenderness all day but it does have me concerned. I suppose my question is, is this normal for the gums to get tender before they heal when using your system? I will stick with it for sure as I want to see the results but I needed to check in and see if this is normal to have your gums feel this way when starting?
Hi. When I started her system my gums started bleeding more and were more painful, but after a week they stopped bleeding and hurting. I've been doing the system for 3 + weeks now, and gums haven't bled or hurt again. Don't know, though. I really wish Dr. Ellie answers your question. What I noticed is that my gums started looking white in the borders around the teeth, though.
@ thanks for your comment! Yes! I noticing the white around the gum borders as well! I really hope it’s just a transition period. I’m sure it is but I do hope Dr Ellie replies. I’m using the xylitol mints during the day after meals and snacks and swishing with it morning and before bed. I only started feeling the soreness of my gums and the noticed the bleeding when I started using the toothbrush she recommends so maybe my gums still need adjusting to it 🤷🏻♀️
@@Backwoodsmom I've had the same issue with Dr. Plotka's toothbrush-it always scratches my gums and leaves them feeling sore. I never experience this when using the full system with a Curaprox toothbrush. I even tried the 'youth' version, hoping the smaller size would give me better control. While it’s slightly better, it's still not great, and I end up with pain in multiple spots above my teeth. That said, they do make my teeth feel really clean-it’s just the area above my teeth that seems too sensitive. Not sure what the best solution is here-I’m hoping @dr.elliephillips responds! But for now, I’m sticking with Curaprox.
@ thank you for your input! I may try that brand of toothbrush if my gums aren’t feeling better after another week. I got a morning and evening toothbrush as she suggested so I hate to toss them considering the cost but we shall see. I’m going to look up the brand you suggested 😃
Dear Dr. Ellie, I'm in Italy and your products don't get sent here. Is there a way to find something similar? Listerine is esier maybe to find but Closys it's completely unknown here. I've started anyway to use xylitol every day (several times a day) and I've pre- ordered your book. Thank you for any advice!
I know what you're talking about, I had a dentist appointment in Central NY and one week before my appointment they called me and told me that they were having difficulties with my insurance.
Hi. My teeth were getting a little sensitive from doing the program as well. Not sure if that is the pain you are mentioning but I read on one of the comments to another that one can use the Listerine a little shorter of a time if older (which I am). I did that and the teeth sensitivity went way down.
I don’t have Down’s syndrome but an oral surgeon recently noted that I have been pushing my upper front teeth forward with my tongue. It’s a powerful muscle. They have become misaligned. A habit I developed over years. I’ve consciously made myself stop. Not sure what can be done besides braces. PS , I’m using the Ellie system for 4+ months.
@@fcmiller3 even a simple removable appliance should work- but I’d wait a few months and ensure your lips are closed over your teeth. The pressure from the lips push teeth back into a balanced position. Lips have powerful muscles in them too.
I hope the gov puts you in charge of the ADA or on a panel to create newer updated ultra conservative minimally invasive dental standards for TRULY saving teeth young middle and old as well as special needs . Silver diamine fluoride has been used to stop decay for almost a century in Japan and I don’t see that population in a tragic health decline the way we have in the USA . Can you present non-restorative dental systems on one of your videos ? With techniques like hemisections to save half a molar when only one root has died but the others are still vital ? Or saving wisdom teeth or just cutting a piece off that might be in the way ? Autotransplantation or keeping wisdom teeth as a back up ? Pulpotomies , using platelet rich fibrin as a canal filling to regenerate tissue inside the canal that works better to create an environment that maintains moisture in the formerly failing adult tooth ? APEC did a great video about saving teeth I think TUMS is in the video title . Tehran University Medical Sciences
Can someone help me where I could find infos why my teeth are still shifting further as an adult for years, it's already very narrow, very crooked but the bio dentist told me to not get braces. What can I do to at least stop the shifting of I can't reverse it?
Begin by improving your gum health. If you live in the US my system is easy to do - ensure you get the MOUTHWATCHERS brushes and do vigorous gum massage. Healthy bone around your teeth will prevent them from moving.
@@dr.elliephillips thank you Doctor!! I am unfortunayely not from the States, but I will check out on your channel how I can improve the gum & bone situation 👍
Dr Ellie I am from the UK and Zellies are quite pricey I have been using Dr Pepper mints and i have discovered Dr Heff will they work with your mouth care system.
I m from belgium,I don t use zellies either because of the price.You can use anything that has xylitol in it,its the reason to eat zellies in the first place,I use miradent xylitol chewinggum instead,I use 2 to have 1gram of xylitol a time
Unfortunately, Closys makes my mouth and tongue inflamed, red and very painful. I tried it multiple times and had the same effects every time, and it lasts for days. Same with xylitol, tried it many times and it always causes severe GI issues. So I'm just using Listerene and Act mouth rinses.
the symptoms u told happened to u cannot be becoz of closys and xylitol .it can be becoz of listerine and act .just check.becoz i too faced same with listerine and act .
On the Xylitol, you can get the granules, swish with the mixed with your saliva a couple of minutes and spit it out. That will handle the GI issues as you won't have to swallow it.
Dentist told me yesterday that I have no tooth decay but I do have varied gum pockets up to 6 millimetres and need some deep cleaning. Should I have a deep clean before trying your system, or start the system and leave the deep clean?
@@anara5570 Read my books - learn what you can do YOURSELF to completely reverse this. DrEllie.com for a free downloadable booklet to start and then learn MORE!!! You can reverse this in 9-12 months.
I remember going to the dentist before I started doing the protocol and they would test for my pockets and call out the numbers. 😢 But now when I go to the dentist, they don't even check for pockets anymore. Does that mean they don't see any need to anymore?
I think so many dentists do not check these days cause they don't care any more. How else will they know but to check? 😢 A gp or dentist to see the patient an alive person and not a money making number is rare and depends on luck. Humanity changed after Covid.
@@DivaDeb1234 You should ask specifically about them. I find many dentists simply focus on generating business so don't tell you that you don't need their services.
Same here.. but Ihad a new hygienist this past dental visit and she didn’t mention anything…I was surprised because I have been on dr Ellie’s system and felt my teeth were so much better! I have no more sensitivity since using xylitol so I don’t even care. I’m thinking about looking for a more holistic dentist.
I’m having trouble getting the Act in Canada and with the upcoming trade war, I would like to know if there is an alternative? Better yet, can I diy something like baking soda rinse with fluoride added, or any suggestions? I’ve been doing your protocol for about 3 months and don’t want to stop now because I can’t get 1 product. Thanks for any suggestions.
Well I had gum desease 30 yrs ago after what was good dental care ie flossing every day and cleaning twice a yr. So I started using salt and baking soda mouth rinse and brushing with baking soda using oral B tooth brush had 9 mm pockets on some teeth, still used tooth paste in morning but a couple of yrs ago only use baking soda, now pockets reducing by 30%. Tooth paste has artificial sweeteners which bacteria love and cause so much trouble. Good luck I’m censored on UA-cam so I hope you get this.

I have all the products, but I've been hesitant to start the system because I drink a lot of liquid in the day due to taking a prescription water remover. I don't want to brush my teeth 15 times a day. Do you brush after every time you drink something?
Had my first 'deep clean' and my mouth was in agony for a few days. Dentist said I had a cavity, too. Did some research and I am proud to say after a year and a half my cavity reversed and now I am working on my gum line massages.
Had to really rethink how I eat and drink every day - but the results are too amazing to ignore!
Dr. Ellie and her knowledge will be celebrated for a long, long time.
@@LivingFreeTv123 How my system works and how it is actually your BODY that does this healing - this is the topic of the new SECOND edition of KISS Your Dentist Goodbye. Available in bookstore and on Amazon now.
Hey dr. In one of your video I read a comment of someone and he claims that he daily after brushing let the toothpaste on his teeth for atleast 15 min and within a week he reversed his cavity can this is possible and safe to do@@dr.elliephillips
I have two pockets in my mouth that have gone down and are almost completely gone. I've been using the mouth care system for six months plus the cinnamon xylitol, which is delicious and I also bought the toothbrush she recommends and sells on her website, which is fabulous. It feels good on my gums and feels like I'm flossing when I'm just brushing. My husband uses the mouth care system as well and has noticed all his sensitivity is gone.
Thank you for sharing. I started using xylitol several months ago and have noticed a major difference.
Now maybe combine it with the Complete Mouth Care System… then read my book…. DrEllie.com for more info
What type of xylitol are you using if you don’t mind me asking? Cheers!
@@PokerFace837 how many types are there?
even i want yo know the same.which xylitol are u using .pls name it
@@PokerFace837 there's only one type of xylitol on a molecular level, brand doesn't matter and it doesn't matter whether it's from trees or corn etc. You could even use granulated.
Well, i was a biologist so I LOVE your description. Glad I never knew this 20 yrs ago and just let those pockets grow and eat my bone and you know the story. But now im nearly 60 so i will try my best to follow ur instructions. Love from Sydney ❤.
Glad it was helpful! Healthy Kiwis in NZ is a company that has all the necessary products
Im from Sydney to! I buy the products from Healthy Kiwi, they are who Dr Ellie recommends to buy them from there as well! Happy brushing 😊
On your protacal for 6 weeks, really seeing a difference already. Went to get teeth cleaned as i have had serious problems and plaque build up. She said my gums looked better plaque was softening up..im expecting a complete turnaround over time and daily consistency...thank you so much..i have hope!
@@sunnyelizabeth2910 You may like to read the new second edition of my book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye- which will likely help you boost your results with a few little tweaks to your meal patters and diet etc.
@@dr.elliephillipswhen will your new book be available on kindle?
my pocketing has noticeably improved. Cannot wait for my appointment on the 11th of this month :)
Here as a reminder
God bless you Dr. ELLIE! you have saved my teeth! Ive been on your program for one year and had no problems at all! And I am 70 years old!
I really started understanding of hygiene and dental disease through your videos, you solved many questions of us through your informative videos, I changed my dental hygiene routine, I hope I will never needs dentist any more.
Thank you very much for your hard efforts for awareness.
Thanks
You have helped me so much and my mouth thanks you. I have my wife and kids on your program as well. 4 months in and there is a real difference
My pleasure. You may really enjoy the new SECOND edition of my book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye. You’ll understand the process and maybe find it interesting to learn HOW it works.
Been using your system partially for a year. Mouth feels cleaner! Got black between my teeth, you said was normal. That is getting better. I used OTC Xylitol at first overnight for few nights until I got an infection. Stopped that. Use various brushes. My severe mouth pain has been reduced. Yay! I have had pain last couple years after a first level deep cleaning. I also have material from a crown forced down one tooth canal. Now they want to do yet a deeper cleaning and all sorts of other stuff. NO! It's ridiculous! I smoke and drink coffee/water all day. Going to get your recommended brushes and implement mints during day to complete my regiment. Hard to wait 60 minutes! 🙂 I need to get the crown checked for decay underneath. UGH! All crowns appear black at gum line. Should I a get a simple cleaning to to clean dark between front teeth? Hoping your system helps reverse all the damage they've done! THANK YOU!
Another very informative video!
Thank you, Dr. Ellie, for explaining why the CloSYS mouth rinse works.
How much I was ignorant about my mouth health 😢..? How much I feel sorry 😢 now for many who don’t know this useful education..?
❤ this video! I've always taken great care of my teeth, according to mainstream Dentists. Now, at 60, I have some 6-7 pockets. I'm going to revisit your protocol massage methods to ensure I'm getting max benefit from your system! I don't smile any more because I'm so self- conscious of discoloration, fillings and teeth starting to go crooked. Thank you !
You may enjoy the new SECOND edition of my book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye to help and encourage you on your journey. Get the correct MOUTHWATCHERS brushes and do great gum massage. Also remember the importance of mouth resting after the Zellie’s xylitol mints.
I appreciate you for taking the time to respond! I will start using the protocol with more precision. Thank you. ❤
God bless Dr Ellie Phillips ❤❤❤

Dear Dr. Ellie,
Do you have a video demonstrating the gum massage? Maybe on a fake model mouth? lol. I have gum recession due to years of harsh brushing (I think I corrected it), so the gum massage scares me. 😊
~Ami
P.S. I have my teens and myself on your mouth care system now. My youngest teen went in for a check up and it was perfect. We pay dental out of pocket, (self-employed), so the cost of the system saves lots on dental care. I love it! I keep Zelliies in the kids lunch boxes, they love that.
Thank you!
She says toothbrush circles on gums.
@@susangoodman4925No from top of the gun down to the teeth, or just circles on top of the gum? For how long? Thanks!
I have been using your system every day. My gums are so much better. Thank you.
Can i revert cavity with smaller holes
Thank you so much, Dr. Ellie. You explain this all so well. I'm happy to report, that since using your system, I've been able to reverse a gum pocket I had. This question is off topic, but, I once had access to Egyptian mummies when I worked at a museum. These had all their teeth intact and without decay of any kind, even though the teeth were very well abraded. Mostly in their 40's when they died. No teeth missing. So, it makes me wonder, is it our diet now, that causes our problems. Things like processed foods and sugar. Those mummies didn't drink soda, for instance. I appreciate your videos!!
@@notagain779 it’s more about our meal patterns - yes constantly sipping and snacking. In my new second edition of KISS Your Dentist Goodbye book I talk about the fact that dentistry appears to be a respected profession in Egypt at the time of the Pharaohs. I also explain how effective chew sticks have been for thousands of years and the possible reasons why they work.
@@dr.elliephillips , Thank you for your reply!
You must use THAT system!
She is an expert I really like
Just started my third month on your system. Seems good so far
I had a root canal, as usual the dentist didn't get the whole root...got a blow out fistula went to another specialist he decided to scrape dead tissue from the fistula then sew it back up....got a huge infection.....had it pulled. Too many quack dentists out there.
@@dojocho1894 I’m sorry for this and I would say to anyone that ALL root canals MUST be done by endodontic specialists who do nothing but root canals all day long.
You are so right.
Always get a 2nd opinion before any dental surgical procedures.
@@dr.elliephillips Thank your Dr for your reply I myself a physician, Cardiology here in Manhattan. The Endodontist was considered the top in my area. I knew there was a issue when he removed the filler after the procedure... blew air up in the canal and I jumped, he asked, do you feel that? I said yes in which he replied...I dont believe you can feel that. The tissue scraping was done by a maxillofacial Surgeon on Park Ave. I went to a different maxillofacial surgeon and he removed the tooth instantly with no pain. Finally a competent professional....in a field of "professionals"
@ I feel so sad to hear all the horror stories and in my career I caused damage to MY OWN KIDS though wrong information as I gave them fluoride during their early years of life - believing it was going to make their teeth beautiful. They all developed fluorosis and thyroid issues - which I wish never happened. I also put sealants on their teeth and extracted their wisdom teeth ( not my youngest- but the other four siblings) believing I was doing my best. No child should get sealants. No wisdom tooth should be extracted in a healthy mouth. Better health education is needed. A huge number(?? Most) DDS have lousy oral health and don’t know what to do about it.
For immediate relief, I have rinsed thoroughly with colloidal silver.
SUPERB VIDEO...really turned the "light" on for my total understanding. Thank you Doctor Ellie ♥
The gums can grow back and regenerate, right? Great video! ❤Love !
Hello Doctor, thank you so much for all your videos. Is there a way to reverse the darkening of gums due to years of smoking after smoking cessation?
I am 66 years old and ever since I have been using this program I have had no bleeding around my gums, Before I used to get some bleeding and sensitive areas. And I would use mouthwash and do extra things to stop the bleeding but for over two years now I have had no problems at all. And I'm getting older you would think things would be getting worse, not better but they have gotten better!
Please, I would like more information about night guard. I haven’t used mine. I follow your protocol.
Excellent and informative presentation! Thank you
I really hope this is true. After religiously getting my cleaning every 6 months ( I am 56 years old ), I have one tooth with pocket #5. This is my fault for not being more proactive, taking care of my gums, and asking questions. My recent visit to a periodist said it would be $6,000 to fix my lower left side !! Today, I will begin Dr. Ellie's program. If anyone has additional tips please, please let me know. Thank you. Wish me luck !!
good luck
Remember, never rinse with water, only spit between steps. Watch a video as often as you can. Watch the long 5 step video many times and take notes. God Bless!
@@chroniclesofmuffin-whatever this lady is selling/ recommending get it .That deep cleaning that they recommend is a $ scam & a terrible torturing experience on top of it. It doesn't work. I did half my mouth about 25 years ago. I still ended up w/loose teeth emitted horrible odor when am stress , can't be close talking to people . Would've cost $1600 & the time 4 years later cost was $10000 . Whatever you Going to do get on it , make sure you brush @ 🛌 bedtime floss keep the debris out of 👄 , i find vitamins c help with the bleeding 🩸. Good luck take care of it. those massages works!
Just do her system and use zylatol. I had a diagnosis last Oct recommending a deep cleaning. I chose to use her system first and have been using it for almost 3 mos and I see a TREMENDOUS improvement! It's been very encouraging! I highly recommend using her system, plus a good diet. It's not expensive and IT WORKS! Just do it! 😂
What about post-menopause women, how the loss (shift) of hormones affect your gums. I waited in hopes it would be mentioned. What about some recession that happens without any bleeding/puffy gums for a woman in this period of her life who before then didn’t have that issue at all..healthy gums/teeth relationship. I’d really appreciate if you would talk on that bc more
Going on for women that affects things. Thank you! I and girls
also been a customer of your mints for about 4 months
Did you have a research on HRT?
Does this system work on people with autoimmune disease like lichen planus
Could you explain the science behind the action of tsp and stabilize chlorine dioxide in clo sis product. I looked on your website but could not locate an explanation. It would be beneficial to understand how who's two products work from the chemistry point of view. Your method is already helped my gums and teeth but I have a long way to go. I'm putting faith in your protocol.
Thank you very much, dr. Ellie for all the precious information. I am using your mouth care system for several months now and have a good difference. Please tell me if I have to wait 20 minutes after Closys, because I have pockets. Much appreciated.

I used ur complete mouth care system and oh my i couldn’t believe the result. Last January 2024, my dentist told me i have cavities and either get fillings or get a crown. I scheduled one for it and then after seeing your system, i called back my dentist and canceled the appointment for fillings. Then i started using it until i got pregnant. During pregnancy, i couldn’t do her step 3 and 4 but i will not skip step 1 and 2 daily with xylitol. After 6 months, i went in for teeth cleaning and the dentist said my teeth are looking good (not much build up) but bcoz i was pregnant, they couldn’t do xrays to check for cavities. Anyways, came January 2025, went in for teeth cleaning, they did xrays and oh my, there was no black spots on xray and dentist didn’t even mention about cavities or crown anymore. He Just told me everything is looking good and that be careful with my old fillings and not to chew hard stuff which can crack the teeth. I couldn’t even believe my ears. My cavities is gone and not only i save $, but i no longer need the crown!!! Soo happy with finding her videos!!! Thank you so much and your system definitely blew my mind. Growing up, my mom always told me not to get cavities because they are irreversible. I guess we have been lied to all along! Now, i have my whole family on this system and my parents love it!!! Still trying to convince my bro to get on it… he did half but dnt think he did the full system… oh well… it’s his loss. I need to make sure my parent’s teeth are strong so they can live longer!!
What system do you follow can you tell me please?
This is a great success story! Congrats to you and your parents and whole family !!👍🏼👍🏼 my family isn’t at all motivated to do the system, though I’ve been promoting it for 10 years with my success.
Hey miss your story actually motivated me to do her system
Only one question I have that on 30 November 2024 i had a tiny hole on my front tooth which looks unnoticeable until someone looks very carefully and till now the hole is still there can i reverse it with system and if yes then in how many months
@DivyaGond-y6j i am not a dentist so i am not sure but tooth does rebuild with a proper care. So it might possibly work for you since her system also makes your teeth stronger. Good luck!!🍀
@@LK-eu1hr ok i will hive it a try but miss i do then have closys can i start the system without that
How deep were your cavity?.
Ive been hearing this for a long time..ive been on it
Hi Ellie, my dentist recommended a dental laser procedure. I'm not sure if it's the LANAP method-I don't think so-but it's supposed to kill all bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Would you recommend this method?
I am curious about this as well. My husband also was recommended this.
I have developed an allergic reaction to either the Listerine or the ACT. My top lip became very dry and the skin started to peel off. This began about 6 months into the program. I tried reducing the time to 30 seconds for each of the rinses but dried lip conditions returned. It’s actually quite painful. So I stopped using those two rinses. I’ve been using oil pulling since this issue began. What is your recommendation if I’m not able to tolerate the listerine nor the ACT? Using the closys for both before and after brushing? I also tried not to get any of the rinses on my upper lip. Should I use a water pick or flossing instead? Have you ever had a patient develop an allergy to these rinses before? Very disappointed that
Hi. My lips also started to get dry. After both the Listerine and the ACT, I just wash my lips with water. At night I put shea butter that has some Olive leaf extract in it and it totally went away. Also I read that dried lips can be lack of B6 so I have been taking that as well. Hope this helps you.
What to use, what products..

Hi Ellie Mam,
I am massaging my gums regularly morning and evening before brushing on my teeth but I don't know if I am doing it correct way or not as I am currently not having any oral issue or disease to assess my technique on improvement parameters. Can I please get an confirmation if I am doing it correct.
I massage my upper gums under my lips where the skin is too soft and same for lower gums. I do not msaage where the teeth meet gums or gum line but the under lips area inside and outside both.
Any chance to do a video about the gum massage? I use this system but I am wondering how to do the massage. Thanks
Hello Dr. Ellie! I’ve been watching your videos, and was just thinking of going to the dentist because I have a cavity that is causing me pain.
Do you think if I follow your suggested routine, the pain would go away in time and the cavity would heal? I’m very tempted to just go get the cavity filled in, but I’m also wondering if trying your method would be a better option 😊
♥ Thank so much for this valuable information. Blessings to you.
Wow! I bought Ellie's products and in just two days...a lot of my staining is GONE! I honestly can't believe it. I had yellow areas at the base of some teeth or in between teeth and they are gone. I even got out my magnifying mirror and checked and yes...all gone. Unbelievable. It has GOT to be these products. I have had these stains for 15 years or so and am diligent with my oral care but the stains wouldn't go away. I didn't use whitening products as they burned my mouth but when I heard Dr. Ellie explain where and how staining occurred I was so curious if these products would activate as she said and remove them. It WORKS! I am proof. Now, I am going to keep it up and watch my pockets and gums improve. PS-Get the toothbrush she recommends on her Amazon recommendation. I have had a million different toothbrushes...but that has got to be the most soothing toothbrush I have ever used. It literally felt like a massage in my mouth. I LOVE it! Seeing really is believing when it comes to results! It WORKS!
Have a pocket that formed because of a side cavity. What should I do? Get cavity filled? Will the gym come back over that filling?
After 6 months on your system, my pockets are greatly improved! At a dental appointment to remove some staining, the dentist said my teeth are very clean (no plaque), but bled more than they like. Is this possibly because I don't floss and my gums aren't used to being prodded and picked at?
What to do about a tongue coating that always comes back despite using the cmcs and xylitol for months? Is it just a matter of time for the microbiome to rebalance itself? Thank you for all that you do :)
Dr Ellie, when I take a xylitol gum after eating, do I need to rinse my mouth first ? Or it doesn't matter ?
Great explanation, thanks.
Could you please make videos on Direct and indirect pulp capping..??
Thank you for all the information, really hope it’s going to help me!
I am a mom in mid 30s and already had 2 gum surgeries which are painful and expensive, my pockets will go down to 7-12 after the surgery they grow a little but not to 0-2.

Can you use ProFbresh instead of the closys?
Dr.Ellie. I teared the gum from the tooth, when I was trying to massage my gums.😢. I have now not pocket but whole tooth shown even part of the bone.

Do biomimetic dentist do root canals...??
So True. Body regrows, it knows what to do. Every time I cut off my tail...it pops back up!
No, for real, you saved my teeth from an old school dentist who doesn't get it. Every point I brought up on your system with the Hygienist.. was argued as she "inspected" my teeth over 30 minutes, using most of the time to argue my points. I didn't let her scrape or blast with water , and at end they said, oh well, good luck, we'll be here when you have problems and charged me $250. Oh and Dentist handed me a pile of printouts of articles saying that intensive dental cleanings are necessary to avoid heart attacks and early death. No interest in what I was saying.
I'd be worried but my gums have never been pinker or brighter. I have a few stains, but its not plaque. I've been doing Listerine as first rinse, is CloSys better than Listerine?
Total Sweet is £9.99 at Holland & Barratt shop in UK for 1 kg Xylitol from Birch trees. It is absolutely delicious and no horrible after taste. Good to cook with too.
Ne pas chauffer le xylitol, cela le rend toxique
There are 3 mouthwashes in the system. Listerine Act and the clysol? Do you use them everyday after each other? I need to try this system. I am going for another silver replacement cavity that is now causing a crack in tooth. I have pockets and recession.
After using Crestcavity toothpaste then rinse with listerine coolmint then rinse with amAct or Clysol then use xylatol ( optinal).
Act & clysol is the same product with a different name😂
@FERAH-k7v thanks!

Twice a day routine for optimal oral care: Start with Closys (or Ultradex in some countries), swish for 1 minute, then spit out. Brush with Crest Regular toothpaste, spit out, but do not rinse with water. Use Listerine, swish slowly, and try to reach 30 seconds, but spit out as soon as it starts to burn-this might be just a few seconds at first. Do not resist the pain, as that will make it worse. Finish with ACT anticavity (0.05%; or Fluorigard in some countries), swish for 1 minute, then spit out. Do not use water at any step except to moisten your toothbrush. Make sure you use xylitol after meals.
Dr. Ellie, I was diagnosed with a 7mm pocket. I've been using your system for a year. My question is I've missed a time or two, meaning wasn't able to do it in the morning but did it in the evening. How much damage am I doing to the oral biome I've created with your system? How quickly do all these bad bacteria return?
Finding similar products in India - is a giant exercise. I am finding similar ones - but not the exact same composition. And importing is pretty expensive. - Is there someone who has found the alternatives?
I have been using your system for about 3 months now. I notice that xylitol seems to make my mouth very dry. It stimulates saliva while I have mints etc in my mouth, but almost immediately after I'm dry. Any advice?
Dear Doctor, I have a question. IF is the same produkts act Total CARE = ACT anticavity?
In Poland is problem of buying closys ultrasensitive and ACT anticavity.
I just started your complete mouth care system. I have some deep pockets. I know you’re not a fan of flossing but I get food bits stuck in there. Rinsing or swishing doesn’t seem to get all the bits out. Is it ok to gentle flow water floss to get the bits out before starting your 4 step routine? I mean water flossing once before bedtime routine so the bits come out.
@@monikaschwartz738 I’m not going to endorse that for a variety of reasons. Use the MOUTHWATCHERS brushes that I recommend and use these rather than string or water flossing. See in a few days and let me know what you think.
I have been, ever since I started watching your videos. What a conundrum 🤷♀️
Are the products safe for dogs?
Don’t give xylitol to dogs - but for pet care look into a product called TEEF
What do the "good" bacteria do? Does Listerine kill them? Does your total program work better for gum disease, or only those things mentioned here? Which mouthwash kills only the bad bactsria?
@@red-baitingswine8816 They have identified about 800-900 kinds of “good” mouth bacteria that do a variety of things including that they protect our teeth from harm and disease. Some even help lower our blood pressure, help our breathing and improve brain function! Important YES.
Then there are two separated populations of mouth bacteria. A small number are “superficial” and wash away every time we drink a cup of water. The majority are woven into a film called biofilm - which is supposed to cover our mouths and protect our gums and teeth. 40% of biofilm develops during childhood so it’s VERY resilient.
Too many “ influencers” jumped on a WRONG bandwagon and misunderstand mouth bacteria. Only Chlorhexidine is a concern for “good” bacteria as it is a powerful hospital grade antiseptic.
Listerine is an essential oil mouth rinse and very mild and no effect on healthy biofilm. My book Mouth Care Comes Clean describes this in detail - or the new SECOND edition of KISS Your Dentist Goodbye which explains even more new science.
@Dr. Phillips: Thank you!
If you had gum surgery, can you still regrow your gums
If there is no bone, then there will be no gum tissue. Only bone graft or fake bone or the newer bone sticky stuff will regrow the bone.
Thank u.
dr ellie mam ,pls suggest me that the cavity formed by receding gum on the tooth which has yet not reached to rootcanal ,then can we reverse that cavity with xylitol usage ?because i am doing chewing xylitol gums therapy and oil pulling therapy to reverse it.but just by doing so and waiting to get it reversed and not doing the treatment of filling cement which dentist already has told me to do ,and wasting days by sticking to these therapies and my tooth will reach to rootcanal becoz of not treating it by filling then ?so i am scared that what to do .

Hi Dr Ellie! I’ve been on your system for 3 weeks now including the toothbrushes. My gums were not sore before I started but now, when I brush, I’m feeling some significant tenderness in a couple of areas and some dark red/bleeding. It goes away a little while after brushing so I don’t feel the tenderness all day but it does have me concerned. I suppose my question is, is this normal for the gums to get tender before they heal when using your system? I will stick with it for sure as I want to see the results but I needed to check in and see if this is normal to have your gums feel this way when starting?
Hi. When I started her system my gums started bleeding more and were more painful, but after a week they stopped bleeding and hurting. I've been doing the system for 3 + weeks now, and gums haven't bled or hurt again. Don't know, though. I really wish Dr. Ellie answers your question.
What I noticed is that my gums started looking white in the borders around the teeth, though.
@ thanks for your comment! Yes! I noticing the white around the gum borders as well! I really hope it’s just a transition period. I’m sure it is but I do hope Dr Ellie replies. I’m using the xylitol mints during the day after meals and snacks and swishing with it morning and before bed. I only started feeling the soreness of my gums and the noticed the bleeding when I started using the toothbrush she recommends so maybe my gums still need adjusting to it 🤷🏻♀️
@@Backwoodsmom I've had the same issue with Dr. Plotka's toothbrush-it always scratches my gums and leaves them feeling sore. I never experience this when using the full system with a Curaprox toothbrush. I even tried the 'youth' version, hoping the smaller size would give me better control. While it’s slightly better, it's still not great, and I end up with pain in multiple spots above my teeth. That said, they do make my teeth feel really clean-it’s just the area above my teeth that seems too sensitive. Not sure what the best solution is here-I’m hoping @dr.elliephillips responds! But for now, I’m sticking with Curaprox.
@ thank you for your input! I may try that brand of toothbrush if my gums aren’t feeling better after another week. I got a morning and evening toothbrush as she suggested so I hate to toss them considering the cost but we shall see. I’m going to look up the brand you suggested 😃
Are you certain you have the correct toothpaste. Last person with this issue was not using the kind of crest that I suggest is essential
Dear Dr. Ellie, I'm in Italy and your products don't get sent here. Is there a way to find something similar? Listerine is esier maybe to find but Closys it's completely unknown here. I've started anyway to use xylitol every day (several times a day) and I've pre- ordered your book. Thank you for any advice!

I know what you're talking about, I had a dentist appointment in Central NY and one week before my appointment they called me and told me that they were having difficulties with my insurance.
Do you ship to india 😭
I can buy Closys but it ships from overseas. Here's hoping we get easier buying soon 👍👍
My dentist recommends flossing the pocket; is that not useful for removing the bacteria?
No she says
No, plus she says with flossing you can drive the bad bacteria through your gums and to other parts of your body
Has anybody started getting cavities after using xylitol ?
I had a really bad cavity another forming ..
Both on molars
I didn’t have any before
Hii Dr. Ellie, I Using Your System To Reverse Cativy, But After 20 Days, My Teeth Are Paining,What Can I Do Now Please Suggest Me.
Hi. My teeth were getting a little sensitive from doing the program as well. Not sure if that is the pain you are mentioning but I read on one of the comments to another that one can use the Listerine a little shorter of a time if older (which I am). I did that and the teeth sensitivity went way down.
@@thinkbigandlaughalittle Did your cavity stop or spreading ?
@@swawlambibharat536 I didn't have a cavity. I just had teeth sensitivity.
Does Amazon Supply fake products? In India, crest toothpaste total fake or real? Dr Ellie please please answering.
@ then what are you doing now, are you using products still now or what ?
I don’t have Down’s syndrome but an oral surgeon recently noted that I have been pushing my upper front teeth forward with my tongue. It’s a powerful muscle. They have become misaligned. A habit I developed over years. I’ve consciously made myself stop. Not sure what can be done besides braces.
PS , I’m using the Ellie system for 4+ months.
@@fcmiller3 even a simple removable appliance should work- but I’d wait a few months and ensure your lips are closed over your teeth. The pressure from the lips push teeth back into a balanced position. Lips have powerful muscles in them too.
@@dr.elliephillipsthanks!!!
I hope the gov puts you in charge of the ADA or on a panel to create newer updated ultra conservative minimally invasive dental standards for TRULY saving teeth young middle and old as well as special needs . Silver diamine fluoride has been used to stop decay for almost a century in Japan and I don’t see that population in a tragic health decline the way we have in the USA . Can you present non-restorative dental systems on one of your videos ? With techniques like hemisections to save half a molar when only one root has died but the others are still vital ? Or saving wisdom teeth or just cutting a piece off that might be in the way ? Autotransplantation or keeping wisdom teeth as a back up ? Pulpotomies , using platelet rich fibrin as a canal filling to regenerate tissue inside the canal that works better to create an environment that maintains moisture in the formerly failing adult tooth ? APEC did a great video about saving teeth I think TUMS is in the video title . Tehran University Medical Sciences
Can someone help me where I could find infos why my teeth are still shifting further as an adult for years, it's already very narrow, very crooked but the bio dentist told me to not get braces. What can I do to at least stop the shifting of I can't reverse it?
Begin by improving your gum health. If you live in the US my system is easy to do - ensure you get the MOUTHWATCHERS brushes and do vigorous gum massage. Healthy bone around your teeth will prevent them from moving.
@@dr.elliephillips thank you Doctor!! I am unfortunayely not from the States, but I will check out on your channel how I can improve the gum & bone situation 👍
Dr Ellie I am from the UK and Zellies are quite pricey I have been using Dr Pepper mints and i have discovered Dr Heff will they work with your mouth care system.
I m from belgium,I don t use zellies either because of the price.You can use anything that has xylitol in it,its the reason to eat zellies in the first place,I use miradent xylitol chewinggum instead,I use 2 to have 1gram of xylitol a time
@@kathleeng1208 You can just buy Xylitol granules and swish with them mixed with your saliva for 2 mins and spit out.
Unfortunately, Closys makes my mouth and tongue inflamed, red and very painful. I tried it multiple times and had the same effects every time, and it lasts for days. Same with xylitol, tried it many times and it always causes severe GI issues. So I'm just using Listerene and Act mouth rinses.
Could it be that your microbiom is so messed up that it is reacting?
@strahinjamacesic3974 I'm not sure, I think i just have a sensitive mouth.
Diminuer ou diluer ++
the symptoms u told happened to u cannot be becoz of closys and xylitol .it can be becoz of listerine and act .just check.becoz i too faced same with listerine and act .
On the Xylitol, you can get the granules, swish with the mixed with your saliva a couple of minutes and spit it out. That will handle the GI issues as you won't have to swallow it.
Dentist told me yesterday that I have no tooth decay but I do have varied gum pockets up to 6 millimetres and need some deep cleaning.
Should I have a deep clean before trying your system, or start the system and leave the deep clean?
My grandma had false teeth at 45. Now, over some years of that age, I am fighting my destiny, to keep my teeth. 🤔⬆️⬆️⬆️

Anyone using oZone infused oil on gums?
I remember going to the dentist before I started doing the protocol and they would test for my pockets and call out the numbers. 😢
But now when I go to the dentist, they don't even check for pockets anymore. Does that mean they don't see any need to anymore?
I think so many dentists do not check these days cause they don't care any more. How else will they know but to check? 😢 A gp or dentist to see the patient an alive person and not a money making number is rare and depends on luck. Humanity changed after Covid.
@sahelnana I'm just thinking when the gums look healthy there's no need to check
@@DivaDeb1234 You should ask specifically about them. I find many dentists simply focus on generating business so don't tell you that you don't need their services.
Same here.. but Ihad a new hygienist this past dental visit and she didn’t mention anything…I was surprised because I have been on dr Ellie’s system and felt my teeth were so much better! I have no more sensitivity since using xylitol so I don’t even care. I’m thinking about looking for a more holistic dentist.
I’m having trouble getting the Act in Canada and with the upcoming trade war, I would like to know if there is an alternative? Better yet, can I diy something like baking soda rinse with fluoride added, or any suggestions? I’ve been doing your protocol for about 3 months and don’t want to stop now because I can’t get 1 product. Thanks for any suggestions.
Ordered mine on Amazon today. If it’s no longer available or becomes too expensive maybe try a salt water rinse.
Well I had gum desease 30 yrs ago after what was good dental care ie flossing every day and cleaning twice a yr. So I started using salt and baking soda mouth rinse and brushing with baking soda using oral B tooth brush had 9 mm pockets on some teeth, still used tooth paste in morning but a couple of yrs ago only use baking soda, now pockets reducing by 30%. Tooth paste has artificial sweeteners which bacteria love and cause so much trouble. Good luck I’m censored on UA-cam so I hope you get this.
