You never talked about what would happen if the pH of your mouth was too high. Could you do a video on that please? I’m just curious to know what would happen.
pH is very important. I was bedridden for 7 yrs without awareness of dental hygiene. Before that, I hadn’t had a cavity since high school, had a very nice smile, and had checkups religiously every six months with no problems. When I woke up I noticed my teeth were a mess, and now that I’m working with several dental professionals, I’m on my way back toward good hygiene. My pH was off the charts, and my meds and diet were the cause of dozens of cavities, some on top of each other! Please heed Whitney’s sound advice and have your pH tested to avoid unnecessary cavities!
My dentist said that my saliva destroys my teeth and that is why i have bacteria and no matter hoe many times i brush them only solution is cleaning professionally
TheraBreath mouthwash - specifically Mild Mint - has a pH of 8.5+ , plus it contains Xylitol. I highly recommend this to use after eating or before brushing to make sure your teeth/mouth/enamel are not acidic. It does not have flouride so I wouldn't use after brushing though but great to neutralize acids and for fresh breath.
@@kathleenking47it does but to slow, your saliva takes about an hour to get ph back to base level.. Damage has started. Over the years decay.. No amount of brushing flossing stops that
Hello Whitney, I'm curious about my ph level. When I go for my next cleaning I'm going to ask to get tested. Your videos are great, so informative. My overall oral care has improved and I like going to the dentist now thanks to you.
some offices offer it and others don't! so it can't hurt to ask! and if they don't, then you can always try one from amazon! I have links in the description box :) thank you again for watching!!! and wishing you continued dental health! so happy to hear that you enjoy the dentist now!!! :) :) :) reading that made my day!
I love watching your videos it helps me everyday because I have braces and I wanna keep my mouth healthy so thanks for the videos and keep up the good work and content
Hi Whitney, I recently subscribed to your channel and I find it very refreshing. Talking medical issues with some humor....actually a lot of humor. Watched your video from across the world and it certainly makes my day, The way you twist your mouth to one side while talking and smiling at the same time makes me crack up. Anyway I find your videos informative with a lot of entertainment at the same time. Please keep up the great job. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much for this video! I just ordered the ph strips. I had bariatric a decade ago and no, suddenly, I am having a sequence of problems that are making me quite scared after an almost entire life free of cavities.
I notice lots of folks are drinking tons of plain sparkling water. I’ve always wondered if that plain soda water is acidic. It is so popular now. Thanks for the great info in your channel!
I noticed that eating fermented food like pickles almost immediately results in my otherwise low pH (6.0 at best) jumping to over 7.2. I use a digital pH meter
You speak English very well. Your pronunciation is accurate so I like listening to your English as a foreign language study. I am a Korean. I eat Kim-Chi. Problem of Kim-chi is when it's fermented, it's PH goes higher rapidly, became hardly enjoyable. Some people love to eat fermented Kim-chi but I learned from my experience it hurts my teeth and stomachs. Actually very high rate of gastric cancer incidence in Korea are related with salty food like Kim-chi. So in my personal opinion, salty and fermented food is the worst food, as bad as hightly processed food.
yesss! you know it! relates to my video about fermentable carbs! here it is if you're interested: ruclips.net/video/90cot6T_CC8/видео.html thank you for watching!
For the last 2 years, I’ve been the keto diet (with plans to transition onto the Mediterranean diet when I’ve moved into my new apartment) so a lot of the cavity foods are naturally prohibited such as cookies, bread etc. I’ve also recently cut out energy drinks and fizzy drinks and started to drink more water (the drinks I used to drink were diet ones anyway as I hate sugary drinks). I don’t drink alcohol or eat junk food (unless at Christmas, on my birthday or special occasions such as cosplay conventions or weddings).
Great video! I always wondered if I had some kind of mouth disease causing my teeth to be cavity prone. Please do a video about acidic dental products.
Hi, Thank you so much for your efforts . Can you please make a video on which floss is better ? Is it the usual thread floss or the water one ? Please .
What is the highest pH that our mouth can take? I mean too acidic is not good, i think too alkaline should be not good too. So what is the highest ph limit. Thank you
You were so funny this video, you made me laugh, thank you. This was an awesome topic, loved it. And as usual your hair and smile are amazing!!! Can't wait for the PH of mouthwashes video, should be great!!!. Have a perfect day, see ya next time.
None of this stuff actually works except the xylitol. I know because almost every tooth in my mouth has a root canal and I've have 4 implants and am getting two more done. It all started in my early 20s. I didn't know what was the cause, just the bacteria in my mouth was a problem. By mid twenties, I had my first root canal. From then onwards, no matter how much I brushed, I couldn't stop the tooth decay. I would have about 1-2 root canals every year. Eventually, these fail and then you move onto implants. No dentist ever told me about xylitol back then so I didn't know how to combat it. I only found out about a year ago - I'm now almost 50. I started taking xylitol mints. I'd take them after eating anything. I went to the dentist about 6 months ago and for the first time in as long as I can remember, he said the tooth decay had stopped and I had no new issues. I could not believe it. I started doing research and came across a video of a dentist who said that there was a study back in the 80s done of small children who were given xylitol before teething and virtually all of them had no dental problems for their adult lives. It makes me mad that this knowledge isn't more widely known as this would have made a huge difference to my life. Anyway, I thought I'd pass what I know along to others. Tooth decay isn't caused by a lack of brushing - it's caused by the bacteria in your mouth that make your mouth acidic. It doesn't matter how much brushing you do if you aren't doing something to combat that problem. The only thing I've found that works so far for me is the xylitol.
Carifree is what I use! You have to get it online but it's worth it. My hygienist recommended it to me. I have been using it for about three months now and my hygienist was really impressed with how much it's helped my gums (my pockets went down from 4s and 5s to 3s and 2s! I can't remember the last time I had 2s). It also has xylitol which is good for your teeth.
How can I change the ph of my mouth all the time, I do eat tons of vegetables. But I do eat rice and oats too... I think I have acidic mouth, as I have sensitivity and I get cavities....

Imagine buying an electric toothbrush, getting packs and packs of floss and getting some mouthwash... *then realising your mouth is too acidic*

Since blood is pH7.4
I'm thinking saliva should try to hit that
I found out, on a CORE water bottle

Does boka toothpaste have a balanced ph?

thank you so much for watching!!! here is my carbonated water video -- hope this helps: ruclips.net/video/o9pKKlVZ1L4/видео.html
@@TeethTalkI found out. By dr ellie Phillip's to leave sparkling water alone. It's like drinking soda, and then, use gum with xylitol in it
I eat Fermented foods like sauerkraut, fermented cucumbers and home made Yogurt. Should i worry about cavity. 🎉

I assume the high rate of gastric cancer is due to quantity eaten? Would kimchi as a side every now and then be fine for you?
@@ezzellvfx2169as long as you arent having kimchi as your main meal, and you eat it with other foods and drink water, you should be fine
Can xylitol gum balance out the ph in your mouth
it can definitely help neutralize the acidic levels!!!
Best mouth wash for tatar and plaque
Congrats 🎉 on *_400K subscribers_* 🎉🎉🎉

Hi Whitney: Could you please demonstrate how to test pH levels of mouthwash & toothpaste accurately? Thank you.
I just subscribed for the "SALIVA"
I have measured Listerine MouthWash, pH is 4.2!!!!!
Great video! I always wondered if I had some kind of mouth disease causing my teeth to be cavity prone. Please do a video about acidic dental products.
Hi,
Thank you so much for your efforts .
Can you please make a video on which floss is better ? Is it the usual thread floss or the water one ?
Please .
already done! hope you enjoy: ruclips.net/video/yaZtNAVZ1Ao/видео.html
Could you make a video on reversing cavities/sensitivity to sugary foods
here's my incipient decay video -- hope this helps: ruclips.net/video/UYVwcu_XQTw/видео.html
Is guru ghanda coconut mint oil pulling good and hello peace out plaque mouthwash good and what is their ph level
I used to use hydrogen peroxide and listerine religiously. I ruined my mouth and it took me months to fix my cavities, gums and white tongue
What is the highest pH that our mouth can take? I mean too acidic is not good, i think too alkaline should be not good too. So what is the highest ph limit. Thank you
What are some neutral toothpaste that I can use?
You were so funny this video, you made me laugh, thank you. This was an awesome topic, loved it. And as usual your hair and smile are amazing!!! Can't wait for the PH of mouthwashes video, should be great!!!. Have a perfect day, see ya next time.
you are so nice! thank you for this kind comment! truly appreciate you!!!!
I'm using ELEMENTA mouthwash to help with pH, do you have any opinion on this product?
I use it before brushing...

Wait.. why no link for a ph balanced toothpaste??

So it makes sense to rinse with alkaline water after eating or drinking coffee to get mouth back to neutral?
Thoughts on unsweetened flavored carbonated water?
here's my video about carbonated water -- hope this helps: ruclips.net/video/o9pKKlVZ1L4/видео.html
You just taught me Something! Morning ph is acid! I did.not know this! That's why dad said brush in the morning! Now I get it! Finally!
YOU ARE SO SWEET
How can I change the ph of my mouth all the time, I do eat tons of vegetables. But I do eat rice and oats too... I think I have acidic mouth, as I have sensitivity and I get cavities....
Hai...mam ....your videos are so good.,..am indian dental hygienist 😊
thank you so much!!!! :) :) :) truly appreciate your support!
Nice smile😊
Is it possible to regrow teeth naturally?
not yet! but hopefully one day!!!
Hi
hi!
I think you can sing! IM SURPRISED!😅
Salviiaaa!!!!!! Lol love it.
Peace love teeth ❤
PLT :)
I wish soda companies would hop on the nitro bandwagon, less acidic than carbonated.
Are you one of those people in the morning who will say to others: “don’t talk to me until you’ve brushed”?
lol noooooooooo
The ONE part of the body where the woo-woo nonsense about pH of your food actually matters: the mouth.
Lady, it's better if you speak normally
Say saliva normally ffs
First please pin
How do I test the ph of my toothpaste ? 🥲 I tested my mouthwash (it's neutral) but it's harder with toothpaste lol
