1. Xylitol after meals 2. Closys Ultra Sensitive mouth rinse before brushing. Half of what the bottle recommends to use. Use for ONLY one minute. 3. Resilient dense tooth brush with good brissels. 4. Crest cavity prevention tooth paste. 5. Start brushing by brushing on the inside of teeth on bottom, massage gums. If going to floss, do it right after brushing with toothpaste still on the teeth. 6. Let toothbrush dry for 24 hours before uses. 7. Rinse with Listerine cool mint or original. Original is tiny bit more powerful. Always use full strength. Rinse as long as you can stand it, even if only for s second. 8. Rinse with Act mouthwash zero alcohol Anti-cavity. Purchase smaller bottles, not larger. Larger have more water in them than the smaller bottles. Best to rinse for a minute.
I just had my 6 month check up. My hygienist couldn’t stop complimenting me on how fantastic my teeth and gums looked. She wanted to know what I was doing. I explained that I had started your program last summer and stopped flossing. She was floored! Could not believe it. I gave her the links to your videos. She said her mind was blown and couldn’t wait to watch your videos. Thank you Dr Ellie. I tell everyone about you and your program.👏👏👏👍
@@dr.elliephillipsI started your recommendation 7 months ago I had predontel disease. I just had a dental X-ray s week ago and X-ray came out great. But my hygienist removed plaque. Why did I still get plaque. What am I doing wrong?
I made this note for myself & hubby... so thought it would be useful for someone. CLEANING TEETH WHEN? - 1. Right before you go to sleep. No eating drinking after. - 2. Time when you know you won’t eat/drink for another hour. (Great if there can be under 12 hours between the cleans. HOW TO CLEAN? 1. Begin with mouthwash CloSYS - FOR 1 MINUTE ONLY! Tiny sherry glass amount. Bathe from side to side... tip head forward/sideways so all the difficult areas are ‘bathed’... no need to squish or flush, it will run down where it needs to as you bathe the teeth fully. (If ‘pockets’... bathe gently and mouth will do the work - don’t follow instructions on bottle, follow Dr Ellie.). Then spit out. 2. Wet toothbrush, add 2 peas of toothpaste then small circles on the gums where root is. (If you decide you have to floss use it at this stage so it drags the toothpaste through the gaps in the teeth. 3. Wash your toothbrush and stand up so it dries well! 4. Spit out the blob of toothpaste (don’t wash off with water). 5. Now rinse with Listerine Cool Mint (or Original which is a tiny bit more powerful) only: If too sensitive, rinse for long as you can stand it, don’t dilute it even if you can only stand it for a second! If it starts burning spit it out (you will build up tolerance and be able to rinse longer as you go on to 30/60 seconds). Squish in and out between teeth (it is liquid floss 😊). 6. The moment it starts to burn, wash it off with ACT for ideally 1 minute (the most important mouth rinse).
It absolutely works - I am 67 and haven’t been to a dentist for 15 years out of fear and money - I was having gum problems last August - I knew I had to go see a dentist but knew I had many cavities and they would want to do more than just help with with my gums.- then One of her videos showed up on my feed. I started her routine and I can not believe what has happened- I only wish I took a before and after picture of my teeth - bleeding gums and cavities - today you would not believe how they repaired naturally - Thank you so much for teaching the truth!!! You have been such a blessing and I encourage everyone - especially us who are terrified of dentists - to start this routine. It doesn’t take long - no more than 5 mins - morning and night.
Yes! I find I become immeasurably fitter by watching workout videos, especially the Pilates ones. I think it’s the cringing I do with those because they look hard! Seriously, I think this doctor’s system is sound. I watched the video twice to get all my questions answered, then did some research. So far the system is working for me.
I started this system right after my dental cleaning where I was told I needed a root canal. I decided to wait and see if this could help repair it. At my next dentist visit the tooth was fine, I honestly forgot about it because it felt fine. 4 of my kids also went to the dentist yesterday and all are cavity free. I am a lifelong believer. Thank you.
Hmm root canal level of damage seems a bit unbelievable to be treatable/repairable at home. As I understand it, for someone to recommend root canal that would mean you have a cavity reaching all the way down to the tooth nerve, and it has been infected. Maybe the infection of the soft tissue inside is gone, but then how would that long hole reaching all the way down be filled without a dentist?
@@mitkoogrozev maybe not the situation here but in my experience I've had rootcanal recomended by some dentists in teeth where there wasn't even any pain and then had super painfull situations saved by another dentist without the root canal treatment where I absolutely expected it. So could also depend if its an actuall necessity or a greedy doctor.
Dr Ellie’s mentors in dental education forced her to take higher level science classes because she was a woman. I wonder if they were hoping she might drop out? However, not only did it make her a better dentist because she is more qualified, but what she learned made her more compassionate to her patience to truly want to help them! I’d say God uses everything (even potential setbacks) for our good and His glory!
Back then, yes. They definitely wanted her to drop out, go home and get married, and raise kids. Back then, most people thought that was a woman’s place. Not as a dentist.
Just started this system 2 weeks ago and I’m starting to see a difference already! I’m 80 years old have most of my own teeth. I can see the plaque already diminishing! Will give you updates! Thank you Dr Ellie !
@MaryDurica yes! I do have gum recession especially on my lower front teeth. I can see it beginning to heal already but I do realize it takes time! Thanks for asking! God bless!
@MaryDurica Yes! I follow her system precisely and it’s so easy to do. The Zylitol several times a day is so important as this helps with making your teeth white. Hope this helps and God Bless!
Hi Dr Ellie.. I have a big space in my teeth…almost all my teeth has a space so the food stack between each tooth so I need to floss and I have sensitive teeth too that’s why I use sensodyne toothpaste.. What I’m going to do? Thank you Doc.
pls can u guide me the exact quantity to be used each time of each products of the whole kit.i dont know how much quantity to be taken while using them each time.pls pls help me and guide me..somewhere i am going wrong so my taste buds are getting spoiled .so pls help me to guide mw
This is what I do: i went to the store like cvs- Walmart etc and got 3 small travel containers like for shampoo etc because these have small caps on them. I fill them up with each liquid and then use just 1 capful of each to do the job.hope this helps you!
What a wonderful English lady you are. I know many Dentists, studied A levels with them. They all became Dentists for the money. Dr Ellie is a refreshingly honest health care professional. Thank you Dr Ellie, this will help my mom and my whole family.
@@rajanmathaiThey were just clearing it up also she liked it and didn't comment. She didn't have any issues with it 😂😂 stfu and they wanted to reference it because they refer to A Levels. Do you even know what they are? It makes sense in context. Get real.
Wow - I started following Dr Ellie's protocol with all of the products just over 3 months ago. I had a very sore tooth at the time on my bottom jaw and knew it couldn't be good. The soreness gradually went away and is now completely gone (before if I even touched that area on my face - it hurt!). Teeth are white and tartar is gone (I am a coffee drinker). This woman really knows what she is talking about!! I think she is right that the small amount of flouride in some of the products that is spit out is probably not too bad as it is such a tiny amount. So glad I found this woman!!
I’m back with great news from my 15 year old daughter. She was diagnosed with cavities after routine cleaning and check up. We came back home with $1400 invoice. I showed her this video and supplied her with all needed including Zellies. She was following really carefully this routine every day. I’m sure at least before bed she did all the rinses. So 8 months later at another dentist her new X-rays showed no cavity at all. Hygienist praised her clean teeth and she is happy smiling that $1400 is in the trash 😊👍
I was unable to on one side of my back jaws for around 4-5 years. I was always swollen and tender and biting was impossible. My dentist as the time tried everything and NOTHING worked. Then came Dr Phillips. I watched her video on RUclips and followed her instructions. It has not been 3 months but the swelling I had around my molar and the pain and sensitivity in my teeth is totally gone. I can eat like a normal person once again. Thank you so much Dr Phillips, your reccommendations worked like magic.
I must say, after doing this for about 3 weeks, the progress in my dental and gum health is undeniable, on all fronts. I’m big on giving credit and speaking highly for those that deserve it, and you have provided a service to people basically for free (get her book and her mints as a thank you) and have helped many with your advice. Thank you, may you have many blessings.
I appreciate you taking the time to leave an update. If you haven’t already - do download the free booklet at DrEllie.com and maybe consider my oral health video bootcamp where you may discover some extra things you can learn to upgrade the system of care even more. Thanks again! Ellie
@@krishnaajarie1723 so as I understand it you use the closys first and time it for a min, then spit out and brush your teeth starting with the gums first, then spit out the toothpaste and use listerine for min 30 secs if you can handle it, or longer if you like as long as you still feel comfortable, spit that out and finally use Act for a minute. Don’t eat and drink anything for at least 30mins. That’s it in a nutshell, good luck.
Ok I’m back! A month later, here’s the update: No plaque build up ever! I wake up with no morning breath but that could be also due to my diet. I have had some receding gums and one of them was in the front and it’s literally slowly growing back to its normal place! I had a sensitivity on one of my back tooth’s but not any more after being consistent with this regiment. I’m so happy with the results!!. I have been struggling with sensitivity and gum recession for a while. It’s not too bad but it worried me for a long time and now thanks to Dr. Ellie i have a better teeth regiment than ever before. I’ll update in 3 months.
Did you experience any sensitivity in the beginning? I am using the program for now 2 weeks and my sensitivity increased. I’m wondering if it is the Zellies …. I really want this system to work. I switched from using Risewell for a few months … my teeth got yellow and thin looking.
Hydrogen peroxide is actually great for receding gum lines. Apparently, fluoride in the toothpaste can cause a receding gum line add peroxide helps heal the gums so they can grow back
I just want to say I've been doing this complete mouth care system for a year. My gums were experiencing heavy recession and sensitivity. I tried this complete mouth care sustem And bought all the items listed and it WORKS my gums are in much better shape that my dentist was shocked!!! And I didn't floss!! Instead I used the interdental picks to get food that was stuck between my teeth but NO FLOSSING my gums were getting irritated because of that. For all those that are skeptical try it!!! It works!!!
Do you do all steps including Listerine? I was wondering since it's acidic and has coloring, that it might stain teeth. Plus it might kill good bacteria together with the bad. I was wondering if skipping Listerine and just using ACT after brushing would get the same results. Also, do you rinse out ACT with water? If you dont rinse out, can it stain teeth since it's green and has food coloring
@@samanthal7051 do not use water to rinse afterwards I spit about 3-4 times after the final application as I have a tendency to be sensitive to dental products, but it does NOT stain your teeth.
After following Dr Ellie’s system for 6 months, I returned to my dentist for my biannual checkup. The hygienist and doc commented on how great my teeth and gums looked. Even my deep pocket lessened considerably. No issues-no bleeding or sensitivity. I have probably flossed about 4 times over the past months (stuff between my teeth and honestly, I just wanted to check and see exactly what was different, since I tend to be skeptical… ) i had no buildup or food particles I will say that the only area I have to watch is the permanent retainer on my lower teeth. There was the tiniest bit of plaque that I had the staff scrape away. But otherwise, I told them to skip the cleaning and polishing etc. My dentist wasn’t happy and shook his head when I tried to explain what I was trying to do, but it’s my mouth! What could he do? The rest of the staff though seemed very interested in my experience. I’ll see how my next checkup goes!
Well done! It can be quite disheartening when dentists and doctors become somewhat patronising and condescending, especially when one is doing something which is clearly showing benefit etc.
Hey, I wonder about my permanent metal retainer. I had braces 1 year in HS to straighten a couple teeth thanks to my parents, but the dentist put the metal retainer across my bottom front 6 teeth. I was 16-17 and now I’m almost 33 and it’s still in there but I think last time I went to a dentist was maybe 18 years old. So I wonder if it’s ever supposed to come out? Does it help or hurt to keep it? Only annoyance is it catches food or like a chia seed if I eat something with that. Did your dentist say it stays in for life? I guess the metal is surgical steel? Thanks.
It probably needs to come out. My metal retainer on bottom teeth rotted the molars in the back where the dentist used a wire band around the molars. They stayed on too many years. Just get it checked out.
@@fastrabbitcrochetThere’s a cool YT channel The Bentist (he’s an orthodontist named Ben). He recommends against permanent retainers b/c of the problems you mentioned. He sells inexpensive water flossing machines that are required if you have braces or permanent retainers.
I'm really glad you addressed the fluoride and other ingredients. That was going to prevent me from listening further but I ended up watching the whole video
Fluoride is a neurotoxin and should be avoided at all cost. Mouth washers can lead to high blood pressure as well. Do you own research and don't always trust one source.
Truly an amazing oral routine. I'm 65 years old and can't believe the change in 5 weeks of using Dr. Ellie's system: Zellies, Closys, Crest anticavity, Listerine, and ACT. Tartar is slowly disappearing and teeth are brighter. Thank you, Dr. Ellie, for your brilliant plan!
Update! I had another dental cleaning today. My 2nd since my last post 3 months ago. MY GUMS HAVE IMPROVED even more! The previous 2 visits my gums were sensitive and I have a low tolerance for pain. My entire mouth had to be numb so that I could get through my cleaning. Today, I requested just a topical solution that lasted for about 10-15 mins but no sensitivity and no gum recession. There were improvements the first time I started the oral health system but since then it’s been 5 months and the results are outstanding! The hygienist told me to keep up what I’m doing. Thank you Dr. Ellie!!
I was gifted a dental scaler tool in 1970 and used it every month since then to remove any tartar building on my lower teeth, letting the dental hygienist remove other areas at my six month visits. However, the past three months I have used most of your recommendations, the Listerine, brushing advice, eating xylitol, chewing xylitol gum or eating the xylitol mints, and I have not built up any tartar whatsoever. My scaler still sits in its holder, now just as a souvenir of the past. No more baking soda, no more whitening strips, no more whitening toothpastes. Your system works! Thank you!
@@EverydayPeople-tx3js yes, she says it does! Because by building up a strong enamel covering on your teeth that makes them reflect light naturally which is what gives the white appearance.
Now one month since using this system. The turn around in my dental health is so dramatic that, even after only four weeks, it’s hard to remember that my mouth was in the poor and deteriorating condition it was in. Main issue was receding gums accompanied by increasing sensitivity, to the point where my teeth felt weak. If I ate anything hard or crunchy, it almost felt like my teeth would break. But after a month on this system all sensitivity is completely gone. My teeth feel incredibly strong. I can crunch on anything and feel not even a hint of sensitivity. My gums are pink. Can’t say any receding gums have restored. But my gums have a different look, like they are more relaxed. My teeth look and feel incredibly clean. My mouth feels and smells so clean. No bad tastes or odors, just the taste of saliva. And my mouth now seems to be producing more saliva. I cannot be more grateful for Dr. Ellie and this system.
@@krandly8 The opposite. Have yet to notice any actual regrowth, but the recession has stopped. Most striking difference was with sensitivity. Was at the point where eating softer foods (like bread, of all things) was hurting my teeth. Now, nothing. Not a hint of pain or sensitivity. Teeth are rock solid; I can crunch hard foods without thinking about it. I’ve been using the system going into five months now and have zero issues. It’s an invaluable investment.
@@kenyaettahboss4240 No loose teeth, but my teeth felt weak. They were starting to break and chip when eating any kind of hard foods - for example, even hard bread crust. At the same time, my gums and teeth were getting super sensitive, which also caused me to avoid eating hard foods. But almost immediately after I started using this system, my teeth strengthened and all sensitivity went away. I’m using the system six months now. I can eat whatever I want without a second thought. Teeth and gums are stronger than ever. Have the sensation that I could bite into a brick and nothing would happen to my teeth. Such a great system. Truly life changing.
Been doing this system 1 week, and wanted to comment on the immediate results from this system. I will preface by saying that I am a skeptic of the big-name products, and especially put off by chemical additives (such as dyes). But I decided to try the system, because, in spite of daily brushing and flossing, my gums have been receding, my teeth getting more and more sensitive, and my mouth doesn’t have the feeling of being clean. In fact, the more I was doing the worse things got. So when one of Dr. Ellie’s earlier videos popped up on my feed, I decided to lay all skepticism aside in the hope that I could get a handle on my deteriorating oral health. I did not order from her company. Instead, I located the products (exact versions shown in this video) at CVS, because I didn’t want to wait 3-4 weeks for delivery. As I stated at the beginning of this comment, I’m only doing this system a week. But after the first try alone, my teeth and gums felt exceptionally clean, the teeth having a very smooth, glossy feeling. After the second day, my teeth tightened up. In other words, they felt stronger, more sturdy. At the end of this first week, my teeth are getting whiter and gums more pink. I am also beginning to notice my morning mouth is cleaning up. Finally, I want to say a few words about this particular Crest toothpaste. After trying an untold number of different brands and varieties, I was struck immediately with this Crest. It has a smooth and creamy feel, and seems to glide across my teeth and gums, unlike other toothpastes that by comparison feel more like scouring powder. I plan to maintain this system, and, at least preliminarily, I am very grateful so far for finally, after many years, feeling like I have a handle on my dental health.
@@Cream_CurdlR For xylitol, two sources. First, I located pure, granulated xylitol made by a company called “Now.” I got a one-pound pre-packaged bag at a local organic market. Second, I ordered the Zellies gum and mints directly from the doctor’s company. The Now granulated xylitol has a good flavor. It’s made to be used as a sweetener; but I find I need quite a bit, in coffee for example, to get a good balance of sweetness. (I use honey, which is still my preference). Instead, I’ve been taking a pinch of the Now after meals and letting it dissolve under my tongue, then swish around my mouth, and spit out. Produces a clean feeling in my mouth and on my teeth that is a very unique and good experience. I can envision the xylitol neutralizing the acids and bad bacteria as Dr. Ellie has described. The Zellies (mint and gum) have a good flavor and produce exactly the same results. I ordered spearmint, but she sends samples of other flavors. The Fresh Fruit flavor is very good, as well.
Thank you for sharing your encouraging story. If you would like to learn more - there is a video program on my website DrEllie.com - my oral health bootcamp where you will learn more ways to improve oral health. Really what you are doing is encouraging your own mouth to heal itself. It is not the products that heal - but they allow your own mouth to heal your gums and teeth - which is why the results are so miraculous :)
I'm 17 and I'm watching this after having a nightmare about my teeth!! So glad I gave you an hour of my time. I've always been terrible at this stuff, but it'll be a lot easier now that I feel informed and have a routine that's easy to follow. Let's hope my teeth are pretty good when I'm aged! 😘 Thanks.
I started using Dr.Ellie's dental system after reading her book called "Kiss your dentist goodbye." And that's precisely what it did. I haven't been to a dentist in years and have no dental problems at all, thanks to my daily use of this system. It works. If more people used this effective system, they would be able to keep their teeth and avoid serious teeth and gum problems.
@@user-be5qg7mr1s I find if you do a pull with a teaspoon of granulated xylitol put the xylitol in your mouth rub the granules around all your teeth until it turns to liquid swish it around for as long as you can then spit it out the tartar will start to break up and follow this method good luckxx
For those of you thinking she’s solely trying to sell products: remember that you can get all of the recommended products outside of her. Consider that for a moment.
So you don't think she's making any money off of this "system"? From people clicking on links, from her youtube video's, etc. What she's actually selling is an easy, affordable sure bet to your dental woes, why wouldn't that draw the masses? Her system has completely ruined my mouth for almost 2 weeks. Understandably so when doing a deeper dive into the poisons in the products she's recommending.
I have done the process now for a month. I am 59 have receding gums, especially in the front bottom. I am writing to you to say THANK YOU!!!!!! My gums are actually growing back. Just wait till Bridget, my hygienist see's me. Your a God send. It really works. Especially the Closys. Its a miracle. You are helping so many people. Thank you again...ill send update when I go to dentist. Adrienne.
This system works!!!! I do not know Dr. Ellie or any of her family and I don't have an ownership in any of the products she recommends. I cannot believe the changes in my gums and teeth. For years, I had a deep pocket in the top of my mouth between two teeth. I could not eat anything, especially salads and meat without food being trapped in that pocket. It was uncomfortable to say the least and I needed to floss that area immediately after eating. I also had a pulsating feeling in that area, sometimes worse than others and I just knew I would have to be pulling one of those teeth sometime soon. I also had gum recession in my lower gums and had a definite brown line below my teeth revealing the recession. Well, guess what? I tried Dr. Ellie's cleaning system, and that pocket has seemed to have closed itself up. No kidding! I don't even have to floss between the top teeth that had the pocket anymore and there is no more pulsing pain. I suppose my gums improved there and helped to close up that pocket. I even have noticed hardly any tartar buildup since I started her system. I decided to cancel my last cleaning. My gums on the bottom teeth that I mentioned, grew also to almost completely cover up that brown line showing. It's hard to believe that Dr. Ellie's system works, but it does! I would suggest you try it and don't give up and you will see the changes in your mouth. I would also like to recommend the Soft, Parodontax complete protection toothbrushes. They are very full, soft and the ergonomic handle doesn't slip easily like most toothbrushes. I get mine at Wal-Mart. They come 2/pack. Can't remember the exact price but I think they're $6ish.
I went for my 6 month cleaning because I only started your system a couple of weeks ago and I wanted a clean slate to judge how well it worked. Could not believe how much less sensitive my teeth were during the sonar clean, with hardly any ouchies at all. Hygienist said I had much less plaque than last time. Dentist was also impressed. Then they wanted me to explain the new protocol I was following which I did. I think the hygienist is a bit skeptical that 6 months from now I will be plaque free, but I am fully expecting it. Thanks, Dr Ellie, because years of brushing and flossing just didn't work that well.
So happy that you were able to make the move to a new idea. This is very hard for a lot of people who have been brainwashed since they were children to simply "accept" the dogma of dentistry - even crazy ideas that have no scientific backing! If your DDS or RDH is truly interested in "how" your change occurred, my book Mouth Care Comes Clean is a good read for a dental professional. My first book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye can be more difficult (not just because of the title - but it is more a "story" for people to know about the background that created this system). Mouth Care Comes Clean is about biology of the mouth that was discovered in 2007 by the Human Microbiome Project and how this SHOULD have changed the way dentistry is practiced.
@ChauNguyen-fw2hz When you have healthy oral biofilm it is protective of our gum, tooth and mouth tissues. It is a bulletproof film composed of proteins and healthy bacteria designed to coat our entire mouth and protect it from chemical, thermal and biological attacks - especially to protect from the chemistry of foods, temperatures (hot and cold) of drinks and foods and from cavity and gum disease bacteria. Certain products (baking soda, artificial whitening and peroxide) literally dissolve this protective coating off our mouths. Dry mouth will also damage this coating. Long periods of sipping acidic drinks - soda or sports drinks - or for women being pregnant when their saliva pH becomes acidic for 9 months - are all reasons to loose this biofilm protection. Smoking of course will also damage it...which is why smokers have periodontal issues and dry mouth problems..... The key it to rebuild this biofilm. Zellies at the end of meals will alkalize your mouth. Then if you do not eat or drink for 1-2 hours the xylitol will feed the good bacteria and enable them to rebuild this biofilm covering. My Complete Mouth Care System helps rebuild this biofilm covering - working in synergy with xylitol. You need every product in the system - exactly - and in the correct sequence - for this to work. For people who experience "burning" from Listerine - it indicates they have lost this protective covering. The system will rebuild it - and this will take from days to weeks to months - depending on your immune system health and your general speed of healing. If you are an unhealthy smoker who eats a poor diet and is taking many medications - this may take some time. if you are a healthy person who simply had a few bad habits ( whitening teeth or using baking soda paste etc for example) then your turn around time may be a few days. The secret is to only use the Listerine up until it "burns" - and then spit out - and rinse with the ACT. Ensure you have the toothpaste residue on your teeth - just spit out the big glob of toothpaste and let the Listerine wash the rest of the toothpaste off your teeth. Squish the Listerine in and out between your teeth - but only until you fee the "heat" and then spit it out. Time this if you can - and you will see the time it takes to feel "hot" will extend gradually. This is your sign that you are developing healthy biofilm. Do not forget that most of the work is done by xylitol after meals - when your saliva flow is full of proteins after meals. The system is just the icing on the cake......please let me know if this helps explain how to achieve the results you want. Brush lower than the grafts and on the inside areas of your teeth if you are nervous to brush on top of the grafts. You could even use a clean cloth and use your finger to do some gentle massage over the grafts. The massage is to "call" stem cells to the area - to regrow and heal these wounds. if you need more help from me - I have an oral health bootcamp at my website DrEllie.com that you may find useful.
@@dr.elliephillipsHi Dr. Ellie making the transition slowly as I've to order some of the items Abroad like Closys, Act and your Zellies. As of now im back on Listerine and since i left it way back in College and Crest. In the meantime ive taken the habit of Xylitol after every meal etc. I feel all this has made a vast improvement. I just couple it with my tongue cleaner routine. Oil pulling i still practice but on the whole your Routine is my main event mornings and evenings before sleeping. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
I bought everything in your system including your book! I used to be a daily flosser but my teeth feel better now after just a few weeks. Thanks for sharing preventative care. I did a degree in Health Sciences and it made me depressed how little they talk about preventative care as opposed to treatment.
@@singhmaster4 If you go to my website DrEllie.com there is a free downloadable booklet and more information and links to ensure you get the absolute correct products. One small mistake and this strategy will not work as well...that's why we sell an introduction "kit" to kick off the process. I also have an oral health bootcamp if you want to learn more about how this system works. You may enjoy that too. welcome to the world of preventive oral health :)
@@dr.elliephillips Doctor would you mind to please guide me how and wherec to buy your products, book and the " Kit". And guide the Kik start ?? Please.
Thank you Dr. Phillips, you are one of the few honest dentist. It is becoming so difficult to find a dentist who does not want me to pay for their exotic vacations. Preventative maintenance is the most cost effective way to go.
I agree with you. I have also found it impossible to interest dental insurance companies in the idea of promoting home care preventive strategies. This is insane.
@@dr.elliephillips It really is insane since medical insurance companies push preventative medical because they found that, in the long run, it saves them BIG money on costly treatments.
@@LastTrump7 Big and misunderstood topic. Lots of myths. DrEllie.com for my strategies that have worked for many decades to stop, prevent and even reverse cavities and gum disease. Healthy bacteria multiply with my strategies and soon I hope to prove all these fear mongers completely wrong with their misinformation.
Dr. Ellie, I just found your channel after my molar teeth extraction a month ago. Since then, I religiously follow your complete mouth care system. I stop flossing. Seeing amazing results. No feeling sensitive, bleeding stopped, and my mouth health is outstanding. Thank you, and God bless you.
1. Closys - ultra sensitive for 30 sec-1 min before brushing 2. Crest remineralization tooth paste before cavities - 2 green pea size toothpaste 3. Mouth watchers or Dr plotka Bristle or dense toothbrush/ no electric brushes and brush/ massage the gums 4. Listerine cool mint or original rinse for as long as you can stand it. 5. ACT anticavity 6. Zellies chewies or gums
I’ve followed Ellie’s system religiously for two months since a dental cleaning. No plaque at all has formed in my mouth. Normally, in the past I’d detect plaque at the back of my lower front teeth within three days.
Thank you Dr Ellie for over 50 years I’ve battled with deep cleanings and gum problems started about 4 months ago. I did dentist visits for cleanings every 3 months. Just left the dentist had my 1st cleaning since starting your protocol. Well dentist was shocked my cleaning to about 10 minutes no place build up and gums are perfect. Dentist asked for your information. THANK YOU!!!
@@cherylwilliams4738 She doesn't recommend anything other than the products that she says works, if you start using substitutes you won't get the same results
So thankful to you. My son and I we are using your system since Setember 1st . I see such a diference in cleaniness, whitness, gums healthier . The dentist told my son needed to do 6 cavities. But exatly that little black lines in his teeth the y disappeared. I am soooo happy and thankful i would love to show you the pictures. ❤❤❤❤ God bless you a lot!!! His teeth is clean, his gums healthy and fresh breath. ❤❤❤❤. I used to brush my teeth all the time after any food. And always was feeling they were dirty. I did the same to him. Now only 2 times a day in your system is what we really needed. 😊
It took me about 10 months to get consistent enough with this routine to reverse my dental health. Today for the first time in years my gums did not bleed when i brushed!! I am over the moon.
I can't believe I stumbled upon this video today! I've been looking for better dental advice for a very long time. About 30 years ago I noticed my gums starting to recede, and got NO help or advice from any dentist since then. Now I'm dealing with small cavities above the enamel. I'm going to get your complete system and start tomorrow. Please know how grateful I am for your amazing research, your teaching skills, and your willingness to spread the word! Bless you.
Great to meet you!!!! If those "small cavities" you are talking about are developing "class V" (five) cavities ....on the sides of your teeth - I'd advise you to be very S L O W in deciding to have these filled ever. They will not get worse if you stay on my Complete Mouth Care System and any sensitivity will go away - often quickly - within days. Fillings in this area can upset the nerve inside the tooth and may lead to tooth death a decade later. This is why I suggest you do not fill these lesions but take care of them and keep having them evaluated by a conservative dentist - who agrees with this philosophy about Class V fillings :) You may like to explore my oral health bootcamp at DrEllie.com where other people have been working to learn this new way of looking after their teeth. They often report how they felt at first and some of their doubts or questions - but you will see nothing but joy and rejoicing in the recent and follow up comments - it's a fun place to learn more ways to improve oral health.
Thank you for your "excitement" - I'd love to create this line of products - but only if I was sure they'd be as effective (or more effective) than the ones I currently recommend. I have thought about this for decades. The problem is that dentistry still does not have a way to test mouth HEALTH - they only know how to detect disease and damage. We need to learn about the composition of a healthy oral biofilm. This is the key piece of the puzzle. If we could test people who have been on my system for 5-40 years and look at the microbial patterning of their oral biofilm - we would have a great starting point....a point for comparison. I have a study design, and am willing to do it - but I have had no success finding sponsorship/funding for this project. I asked many associations and people including Delta Dental Foundation (associated with Delta Dental Insurance) who said home care was not part of their "wheelhouse". LOL!
@@dr.elliephillipscould you crowdsource it? If you could get your message out perhaps through health-related podcasts etc, then maybe millions of us can organically fund It. I’ve been searching for healthy dental solutions for yearrrrs and would be honored to be a part of this health revolution.
I'm sorry this line has no laughing possibilities, so I have to reply somehow and agreeing to this no option!!!!! … for example Xylitol comes from gmo corn .. if you want to put this into your body then best regards
Wish the products were available in Ireland 🇮🇪 We have Listerine and Xylitol sugar. That's it. I found a mouth rinse and toothpaste called Ultradex that is supposed to be equivalent. I started using all about 3 weeks ago and immediately saw a difference. No plaque is forming and no food is getting stuck. I've stopped flossing too - no need ! Receding gums are improving. And back teeth look whiter, just waiting for front teeth to catch up. Thank you so much Dr Ellie - been looking for you for years ! Hope Zellies, Crest toothpaste and the other products reach Ireland soon 😊
Dr. Ellie I will be singing my praises for you to my children and (if Im lucky enough) to my grandchildren aswell! ❤ I just want to share my story - My first pregnancy resulted in 8 big cavities which one of them resulted to a root canal so I was sad and desperate and tried everything that promised to save my teeth including oil pulling, salt rinses, I was recommended going to cleanings every 3months… nothing seemed to help. Then I stumbled on xylitol and boy did just that one thing helped to turn around my oral health. I chewed xylitol gums everyday after every meal. I made a habit out of it. Then to top it I discovered your videos so I introduced your system to my regime. Yesterday I got back from the dentist for my yearly appointment and they did some x-rays and my dentist just said that it looks more than good on the scans and Ive got ZERO new cavities. My teeth look shiny and white, my gums are pink and I couldnt be more happy. Thank you for being such an amazing human being and teaching us to care for our oral health ❤
@@gwenodom7320 Honestly, I have had such success, and read so many, many similar stories here that I want to purchase the products and send them from the US to the rest of the world just as a courtesy! I saw that some of the products are available from Amazon in Italy where I'll be for a month soon, so I may ship a box to myself in Rome. Listerine is very available in stores and pharmacies, but the other products are trickier to find and still heavy for a suitcase. I think one or two products might be found on Amazon Italy.
Hi Doctor. I started using your routine religiously and in a few weeks I saw improvements in my saliva. I was getting this gross brown film on my teeth when slept despite conventional brushing. I was becoming self conscious about it. Anyway, now I’m using the Closys, Listerine, Crest anti cavity and Act and the film has completely stopped forming on my teeth. My gums are less red and look much smoother. They no longer bleed when I brush. Dentists would only recommend deep cleaning. I got one and they wanted me to do another 12 months later. Nothing was improving because it was their only suggestion. Now my mouth is doing better and I will continue for 3-6 months with the complete mouthcare system and Zellies. Thank you.
When Dr Ellie mentions the protective biofilm being removed at cleanings... i specifically remember when I was in high school. I went for my regular cleaning, after she cleaned my teeth, I felt like my bottom permanent retainer area was fuzzy and rough feeling the next day and onwards. Crazy that as a kid, I asked myself in my head, "What did that hygienist do to my teeth?!" They felt so slick and clean BEFORE, and it was noticeably different for months after I left that office. Wow.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS LADY!! ❤🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️ I've followed her system and advice for over a month now and have witnessed a significant change in my teeth! They are noticibly whiter, my gums stopped bleeding and bad taste and smell is GONE. I CANT BELIEVE IT. THANK YOU DR. ELLIE!
Oh and shout out to Andrew Huberman for only mentioning you amongst all the resources he consulted on his recent oral care podcast. That speaks volumes about you❤ great work!
I picked up what I needed last night and I have used the system 2x now and I tell you what! I would get this growth behind my 4 front teeth, that NO MATTER WHAT I did it wouldn't brush off unless I rubbed it with a towel or cloth. The only thing I feel is a possible crack but the build up/ growth is gone. Same tooth brush, new system is all that I changed. THANK YOU
I've used the clo-sys unflavored rinse for years, it was given to me by an old country dentist who gave me emergency treatment for a spirochete infection which was diagnosed on the spot with a culture. Thank you for explaining the chemistry of this product, I now want to use it daily as a prerinse
I love you. I love you so much. I have thought that my dentists were nuts for a while. They say, "floss more" and I do and it irritates my gums. They say "get a water jet", I do and it's ok but not the best. They clean my teeth twice a year and my teeth are getting worse. I went 10 years without seeing a dentist and my teeth (and gums) were not this bad. I tell them this and they say, "well you should really get your teeth cleaned 3 times a year". But somehow I went more than 10 years and my pockets remained the same, then I come under dentist care and in 2 years my pockets get so bad that I need a "flap" or "LANAP". That's when I came to RUclips searching for other options. I will come back after I have tried your methods.
This video just popped up I thank God for her. I had a bad tooth sending pains to the temple area and top of my head i went to the store and got the products. After the 1st application I feel alot better ...I will come back in a few months with a update. This lady knows what she doing. Thank you Doctor Ellie God bless you and your family. I will get the kit later to support her website plus i need the zellies and her book. I went to the store because I was in so much pain and I want to start gum care immediately 😊
I knew i had poor mouth hygien but i never knew how bad my mouth was until my most recent dentist took the time to explain my xrays and what was actually going on with my mouth. I am now actively trying to improve
I love your videos so much Dr. Ellie! I'm almost 60, and in England growing up, we were told such twaddle about oral health. It's a money making business. Never heard oral health explained so concisely, logically and relatable. Thank you so much! I'm going to start this today. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
@@misstakess6495I have been having regular bleeding for 3 months now and using this mouth care system and wondering if it is going to cure the bleeding :(
My last teeth cleaning left my gums hurt & teeth sensitive for over 3 weeks. Last year both Dentist & Hygienist suggested to rinse with peroxide 2-3 times a week after brushing. I did. The gum recession started accelerate 3 times faster. That was depressing to see. Looking for the answer, I run onto Dr. Ellie’s video. I got the Book, and bought the recommended stuff. Your detail explanations are a plus. I have a hope now! Thank you for being a Real Doctor!
I can vouch for the Xylitol and Act Restoring. Using just those two I turned my teeth and gums around dramatically. I used the blue Act Restoring 0.05% Sodium Fluoride. Still use it. I believe this lady. And I don't believe people easily. But I know that I had DRAMATIC success using two of the products she recommends. Also, she is incredibly smart and has had a passion for achieving ideal oral health for a long time. Care, combined with intellect, combined with practice is true, holistic intelligence- that's something not a lot of people possess and it can't be faked. At least not around me. I'm looking forward to trying this system. There's not a doubt in my mind about it. I'll be back in six months with an update.
Thankyou for this most informative video Dr. Ellie! As a Canadian, 67 yrs old disillusioned by the available standard dental care system we’ve been sold on, I am eager to start your recommended mouth care system tonight! I have purchased all the products and already feel relief simply knowing that I will not be using artificial teeth whitening products. Your success stories of older folks applying the system successfully are so inspiring. 👏🙏🥰
Dr. Ellie, when I tell you, that you were the answer to a ‘ 27 Year Search’ to alleviate my self of dental trauma❗️ I am too beautiful both inside and out to have these dental problems. However, after following your protocol for a few weeks, I am already experiencing success and my confidence restored. ‘SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND, ASK AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN’, that’s real talk. I THANK YOU AND I SHALL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR YOUR RESEARCH, FOR SHARING YOUR FINDINGS AND FOR DILIGENTLY GETTING THE WORD OUT.
This is my joy and I hope just the mid point of my mission to change oral health across the world :) I gave up on dental professionals over the years, yet I couldn't see a way to reach patient's except through them. So I kept on trying. Then came TikTok and RUclips....suggestions from my grandkids who have been using my system all their long 14/15 year lives and know about my passion and ultimate mission. I tried a quick video and boom.......what a way for us to reach each other! So delighted you are here and that my system has helped you. You may enjoy my oral health bootcamp at DrEllie.com - as it goes through every step and every kind of dental problem in more detail and in a sequence that may be easier to follow. My website is drEllie.com
@@dr.elliephillips Dr. my only reservation is the use of fluoride. I know you reference the amount of time it’s used in a day in your explanation but calcifying my pineal gland via use of it concerns me.
Thank you. I've never had anyone explain this to me. I'm 71 years old and I'm going to try your system. It's so simple and makes sense. I'm a retired RN and wish I could have taught others ❤🙏 I've been to many dentists and they don't teach preventitive dentistry. I was just asking myself "why" recently.
It’s been three months since I started your 5 step system , my Gingivitis is gone and I didn’t have any plaque deposit on my teeth.Thank you so much dr.Ellie! Your five system works!
I started this system about 2 weeks ago, and I am so happy to see how much better my teeth are already. I no longer feel plague on my teeth, sensitivity has already improved and my enamel feels smoother and stronger, gums are looking more full.
I have had gingivitis and periodontal disease for 25+ years--and this is despite taking great care of my teeth. I have had painful periodontal surgeries to stop & repair the damage caused by pathogens. X-rays show the extensive loss of bone from the chronic infection--very discouraging. The surgeries have stopped the damage, as has the use of a Braun Oral-B toothbrush (which has been critical to my recovery). Yet my dental health is still below what I want. I am always on the brink of another periodontal crisis. Again, I do everything that my dentist recommends. I am going to try this complete oral system. I am ready to try something different.
@@BrandieKae I am worried because I am changing my normal routine. It has worked for me since my recovery. It does not achieve perfect health, but it at least stops the decline and keeps me at an ok level of health. In 3 months, I will see my hygienist again. I sure hope that my condition is not horrible.
@tiffanycoles828 well I have been doing this for about 10 days now and I can testify that I have less tooth pain and my teeth feel really clean. The gums are still healing but look a little better. I will keep going 💪
After following your protocol I went to get my teeth cleaned yesterday and my hygienist said she saw a lot of improvements! The pockets are not as deep in 10 areas!!! Thank you so much!!!!! I keep doing it every day
I love this.....I think taking responsibility for one's own health is so important. As long as healthcare is profit motivated, I don't trust doctors, dentists...etc. And I am a health care provider.
I must thank Dr Ellie. Ive been trying to save my teeth for years. My partner and daughter both have different dental issues. I got the products for us for Christmas . Today is New Years Day. We have all had transformative dental experiences in the last week. This works. Thank you Dr Ellie!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
I’m not a religious person but have used your have system and been GLAD that my teeth are now stronger in checkups. The dentist can’t make me feel pain and then suggest i need work done. That is a tangible benefit, achieved through evidence and scientific knowledge 💋 your dentist goodbye, it feels POWERFUL. ❤ your accent Ellie, i can hear varietals, im hearing a blend which gives you a well-rounded and resounding note of “wisdom gathered through travel” /wine reviewer
You are very kind. I've certainly had a multitude of experiences and opportunities - many delightful - and some a little more difficult! Today I delight in "meeting" people through RUclips and having a moment to interact like this. Thank you for your generous comments. It is my pleasure to share what I know in the hope it will empower individuals to understand their oral health and avoid unnecessary treatments. 😊
@@dr.elliephillips you are welcome. It’s time and energy consuming to release material like you have, and be revising it as your research grows. IE your theory of how relative levels of exposure to flouride are substantial or not. The caveat is that for kidney and other disease for instance, reasonable amounts are excessive. Some countries have water systems so fluoridated that it is more than enough simply through water in product and from the tap (faucet, if you will) or ground supply. I respect you enormously that you have stuck your head above the parapet and are now exposed to a range of reactions from people, some who have complicated dental environment which might not respond quickly!
After watching this I realized using the listerine and people with plaque build up and heart disease. Using listerine kills the strep which is what makes the danger in heart disease and dental hygiene. It's make sense. I don't like to floss just because it takes time. I go to get my teeth cleaned once every 3 years while the rest of the family does it every 6 months. The dentist never seems to have issues with my teeth. Yet my husband teases me that I don't take care of my teeth. I don't have plaque build up. He has horrible receding gum line because he brushes to hard and to long. Every six months he has an appointment an dthey tell him he has pockets. I don't. I am so glad I watched this.
Been doing this for a week now, and wow! I never felt my mouth so clean in the morning when I wake up. I slipped my scheduled cleaning and plan to go back to my dentist after a month to see what he has to say. My teeth feel so much stronger and brighter in just a week of using this system. I shared it with my husband and son too coz its such a blessing I can’t just keep it to myself. Thank you Dr. Ellie ❤️
FYI, my gum was never pink. But now, their getting pink. I am so happy. Keep providing this great information. I was too scared to go to the dentist because my health got worse. So it's been 1 decade that I haven't visited the dentist because of my health getting worst. So, thank you for this information. I have to admit that I used your complete program however some times I used it once a day. However now I'm on track. I now use it 2x a day and regardless I do see results and I'm so happy. I'm definitely trusting you. Thank you! 😂
I am also teaching myself oral health because I'm healing from medical neglect from parental abuse. I'm proud of both of us for finding our way here! Cheers to a long future of healthy teeth! 🥳🥂
I'm in the same boat as far as not having any parents to teach me oral health growing up. But I really can't put all the blame on others though.. I too need to take some responsibility. Because it wasn't all their fault. I'm partly to blame and I recognize that
Teeth program: 1 Zellies xylitol gum or mint after every snack meal or drink, take 2 after meals 5 times a day. Can also take before bed or in middle of night 2 Closys: gently bathe for 1 minute- no more than (don’t need to swish or gargle), focus on gently holding the rinse on areas of concern. You only need an 1 oz. Get the ULTRA SENSITIVE- blue box This neutralizes ph so ok to use directly after eating (Do not add flavoring, do not rinse with h20 after) 3 brush, Crest Cavity protection regular “help stop cavities before they start” - very important that it says this Brush: dense, resistant, she doesn’t like ⚡️ ones. Wet brush, add two pea sized drops Gum massage, extra attention to gum pockets Start on inside/back, below teeth- roots of teeth Circles or up and down May want to wet brush again and add some more paste for top teeth if need more paste This stimulates stem cells! Preserve brand is ok for brush but she likes mouth watchers dr plankas She doesn’t recommend floss but can do now w paste on teeth, can just spot check areas now and then where you know food gets stuck or problem areas. Make sure toothbrush has 24 hours to dry When traveling take 2 Spit, don’t rinse! 4 Rinse vigorously w Listerine 30-60 seconds (ONLY AS LONG AS YOU CAN STAND IT- don’t push it- build up to 1 min), OG is most whitening but can use cool mint. Force is between teeth - this is your floss!! Make sure ADA seal is on it 5 rinse w anticavity zero alcohol ACT 1 min, don’t get the bigger bottle- it’s watered down. You want .o5% *wait 15 min before putting retainer on No eating or drinking for 30 minutes Before bed is most important time for the program. After coffee in a.m. is great time also.
I've put all your recommended items in my Amazon cart while I watched the video so I know they are the exact items to start my new oral regimen, thank you for your hard work and most of all thank you for sharing this information with us, I doubted I'd be able to keep my teeth for my entire life but because of you and your videos I feel like I stand a chance.
Currently in a financial rut as my parents moved around half a year ago. Last time i went to the dentist i had a cavity they wanted to get filled. I pass out getting shots, so imagine the fear of knowing it's literally within half a foot of my eyes. I cant begin this entire process all at once, so ill be building up step by step. My local kroger carries at least half of whats recommended here. Cant wait to start. I'm sad i neglected oral care as long as i have, but better late than never. Im glad such educational content is freely available online
Started using this cleaning system this week. What a god send! For the last few years I have been getting cleanings every 4 months, flossing and brushing on schedule and still had gum recession and plaque on my teeth, with eventual tartar build up. I just did not understand that the mouth biome and bad bacteria was the cause. Using this system my teeth feel smooth and clean all the time. Fingers crossed it begins to reverse the gum recession.
Not sure what she says about oil pulling, but I’d suggest looking into oil pulling with coconut oil, as well as taking vitamin D, cod liver oil, and butter oil supplements.
I have been doing this program for a month and I had an issue around a crown with root canal and even after a month my teeth are definitely looking whiter and the gum around the crown has resolved. I'm so happy with my teeth and gums! You're amazing Dr Ellie!
I am *amazed* at how rapidly this process works. I was beginning to have gum issues and tooth sensitivity. Within TWO days of working this process, the sensitivity went away *completely*. I am excited to see the results with my gums as the days tick off! Dr. Ellie, THANK YOU!
Congratulations - this is such great news. This system works best for a “healthy” person as it is stimulating your own mouth to heal itself. But the good news is that this system works for everyone - even people who smoke or have poor digestive health for example. These individuals have more challenges to overcome so they may have to wait a week or two longer for the same results. In almost all cases gums and dental decay will be healed (or substantially improved) within 3- 6 months - so it’s perfect to use this system between dental visits. The only time it won’t work is if someone has a dead tooth. There is no way to bring a dead tooth back to life! Thanks so much for your comment and feedback. Once again I’m so happy you tried this - congratulations!
I don’t even know how I found you, but I’m so grateful! I’ve struggled with teeth issues since I can remember. After I viewed this video, I decided to buy and try your system. After one day my mouth felt different, clean and my teeth felt silky- like they do after a cleaning. Next morning they still felt that way! 3 days later & I’ve not had fuzzy teeth. I know it’s only been 3 days, but I’m noticing the difference big time. It’s so easy too!!! Looks like I’ll be buying your system & mints/gum for many years to come. I’m so grateful for you, you don’t even know- thank you!!!
Hi Dr. Ellie! I have been using your wonderful system since 2012, when I was at my wits end with my teeth. I was on a forum, and someone mentioned your book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye. I got it from the library and immediately started your Complete Mouth Care System. IT WORKS. The only time I run into problems is when I get a bit cavalier and try other dental products. It always causes irritation. I jump right back to your system, and all is well! Thank you for all of your expertise!
Thanks for sharing! So glad to hear from you. Congratulations on your success! Yes, avoiding all the current marketing and the scandalous wrong information on the Internet is often a challenge! I am here to help you stay on course if you ever need extra help 😁
Started your system 2 months ago tarter gone - my gums burn with listerine is this normal? Teeth are whiter not sipping on water all day has not only helped teeth but saliva has helped my microbiome - stomach upset gone - thank you ❤️I did have my teerh cleaned tho and was so much better- thanks again
This woman is brilliant and knowledgeable. Thank you dr Ellie. No one like you. Everyone else is after the money only. She’s so different and passionate.
I have been on this mission for my entire career. I think the initial motivation was some dental experiences in my childhood. Over the years it became compounded by what I saw and the blatant refusal of dentistry to look for better solutions. Thank you for your kind comment . There is still a lot of work to be done to stop unnecessary dental pain and suffering.
RUclips is a wonderful source of information. Usually, being English, I am not too keen on many American sites ( Dr Berg being an exception) . Somehow I found myself drawn to Dr Ellie, despite her accent, and watched a few of her videos having had years of dental problems, despite excellent hygiene. Today, watching this, I realised I would have been studying at Chelsea College of Physical Education, Eastbourne, whilst she was also training there in Dentistry!!! Maybe that is why I enjoyed her style and, like Dr Berg, passion for her subject without it being about profit. I admire people with integrity, so often lacking in today’s money obsessed society. Thank you Dr E.
Oh I so wish you had been my dentist before I was talked into giving up my upper teeth, now I know it was more gum disease than tooth decay that was the issue! Blessings to you!
I've done 2 nights of the complete system (I'm easing into the program by starting with once a day for the whole program)..... The Listerine was easier to tolerate even by the second night! Soon, I shall buy the Original formula - and will give it a go, for the whitening benefits! (even though my teeth are nice enough already). Thanks Dr Ellie! I just love that I found you!
I am so grateful to have come across this video. This video was very informative in a very easy to understand manner that made complete sense. And as many people cannot afford dental visits or treatment, this information is vital to keeping our teeth healthy without huge financial sacrifices or costs. Thank you Dr. Ellie Phillips for sharing your knowledge and experience to help humanity be able to properly care for our oral health which is very important to our overall health. Looking forward to starting your complete system. From Ontario, Canada 👍
Ma'am. I'm so thankful to God to have come across this. I was wondering how I can brush how I do and still feel plaque. Thus system not only helped that but they're whiter! No whitening strips! Also my family is getting on board because I can't stop talking about it! God bless you❤❤❤
Do you live in the United States? Here it is very easy to get the products I recommend - most of them are in Walmart - or you can get through Amazon. Just be sure to get the exact products. I have a free downloadable booklet on my website at DrEllie.com There are links to the products there. Begin with xylitol at the end of meals - either Zellies mints or you can use granular ( which is less expensive but I don't sell - so you will have to go to a health store or Amazon to find). Get the correct Crest paste ( $1.95) and start there - using the paste twice a day. It works in synergy with the xylitol. You can start this program like this if necessary and see improvements - if you stop eating and drinking between meals and always clean your gums and teeth before sleeping at night. Even have a little xylitol after cleaning your teeth....let a few crystals dissolve on your tongue.....just see the difference this will make :)
Timestamps for my own reference: 0:12 Intro 8:34 Xylitol after meals (2 xylitol mints after each meal), and last thing at night before going to sleep 12:18 Closys Ultra Sensitive (use to rinse/bathe mouth for 1 minute before brushing) 18:46 Brush teeth with ‘Mouthwatchers’ toothbrush, and ‘Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste’ (this toothpaste says “helps stop cavities before they start”). 27:20 How to brush teeth (make sure to moisten toothbrush before brushing) 33:08 If you choose to floss (although not necessary), use something like the ‘Hello’ floss that doesn’t have PFAS in it, and floss while you have the toothpaste on your teeth. 34:21 Wash toothbrush in running water, and stand it up on the ceramic toothbrush holder stand. Use one toothbrush in the morning, and a different toothbrush at night. This is to allow each toothbrush 24 hours to dry between uses. When traveling, use cheap disposable toothbrushes, because it’s not good to store toothbrushes in low oxygen environments like travel cases or luggage due to anaerobic bacteria. 36:37 Spit out the glob of toothpaste. Rinse off the rest of the toothpaste with ‘Listerine’ mouthwash (original or cool mint version) by squishing it in your mouth for as long as you can stand it. 46:29 After using the ‘Listerine’, wash it off with ‘Act’ 0.05% mouthwash for 1 minute. 52:08 Do the ‘Complete Mouth Care System’ before you go to sleep, without eating or drinking anything afterwards. When doing this system, select a time when you won’t be eating or drinking for at least 1-2 hours after you do the system, such as before you go to work in the morning. To sum up, do the ‘Complete Mouth Care System’ in the morning, and do it again 12 hours later before going to sleep. TIP: No rinsing with water between the steps.
You are a tooth fairy WARRIOR, Dr. Ellie! We all know why they yanked you off the stage when you said flossing is not needed!$$! Your demonstration of how to brush in this video is perfectly clear and very helpful... answered all my questions on brushing. Wish I had found you a year ago before I had major gum surgery with the pinhole technique to repair gum recession on 9 teeth. Sooooo brutal on my face and mouth and so expensive and now my lower left lip area is both tender and numb. It is slowly improving but could take years or maybe never to heal. I just ordered everything I need to get started on your program with the hope I will not need dental work again for the rest of my life.
I'm litterally about to cry reading some of these comments. I just started a journey with my dentist through a gum infection and I have receding gums, a black triangle between my lower feont teeth, and a few deeper pockets. I have very crowded teeth and have been considering braces for that. I have to clear up the infection first. I just got through one of your other videos and I'm just now only 6 minutes into this one for the first time and I already have such a good outlook for this healing process!! I'm going to get through this video and see if I can save my mouth health! I am determined too! I feel as though I can trust you and that you have the best in mind for the people you are trying to help! Thank you so much!!
This is one of the most amazing finds I've had on RUclips. I'm starting this immediately and already telling everyone I know about this. Thank you and God bless you!
So far, so good. As of a week in, I have a much healthier mouth. My teeth feel more slippery, and it doesn't dry out as bad. My gums stopped bleeding. And I can taste my food better. I've been following the steps to a Tee and will continue to do so! Thank you so much!!! ❤
I am also starting to see my tongue is much more pink, and it seems like my gums are growing back in the spaces in between my teeth. Im really happy I found this mouth care system. 🪥❤️
Oh my Dr. Ellie, before I started your complete system about a month ago, I had a front tooth that was showing decay. I was going to go to a Dentist, but I saw your video and thought seriously about the things you talked about. My decaying tooth is reversing and I am extremely happy. I am so sure that in a few months, the tooth will completely reverse. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
@@gratitudetouniverse3754 The front tooth has very little brown decay now. The remainder of the tooth looks polished. I look forward to seeing all of the tooth polished.
How early in life can you start this process? Want to do it for my daughter. Thank youuuuu... you have opened my eyes. Cant wait to see a change in my life❤
You are so amazing for doing this! Thank goodness we finally have someone like you! So grateful and can’t wait to try! Will definitely check in to let everyone know how it worked for me! Thank you for all your work! We need more people like you!
Thank you for sharing your system. At 78, I just wish I had known how to properly take care of my teeth. In the last year, I had gum surgery on 3 quads. I may not have to have the 4th quad done now that I’m properly taking care of my teeth. Actually, I’m now obsessed with taking care of my teeth! Again, thank you!
Thank you Ellie for this thorough video and for also mentioning the certain ingredients in the products that are undesirable but not a major concern. I have been a label reader for many years and was hesitant with the products when I started this almost 2 weeks ago. But after this updated video, you've eased my fears about the coloring, fluoride, etc. The benefits are so well worth it. I was worried about my receding gum line, that's how I stumbled upon your video. I used to floss every night for years. I stopped flossing when I learned in another video of yours that it can damage the gums. Your system makes complete and total sense to me. And it so easy and quick. I love how clean my teeth feel now. Also my teeth are much whiter. I've always had stains from tea, etc. I had a dentist appointment coming up in 2 weeks but postponed it today until March. I am excited to test this and see if my gum line improves. When I go for my check up I will probably ask them not to do the cleaning. At the dentist, scraping the tarter off my teeth was the worst. I am thinking I won't have to endure that anymore. Thank you very much!!!
I've been trying this system for about a month now and have similar results to you. My gums have a little receding and am excited to see if they stop at my next dental visit! My teeth are so smooth and clean all day!
I’ve been doing the system just two weeks, but my oral health, which had been declining similarly to what you described about yours, has done a complete turn around. I had done everything else to maintain healthy teeth and gums, and nothing stopped the steady and discouraging decline. But Dr. Ellie’s system produced immediate results. Now I feel like I finally have a handle on the situation and that my oral health is finally improving.
Omg, I need to take better care of my oral teeth, because my mouth is getting sensitive and notice my gum is starting to recede, because i have sweet tooth. I need to learn to restore my receding gums. It’s where I come across your video. Thank you Dr Phillips.
I'm from Germany and currently learning this for my parents. I'm just glad that someone out there put in a lifetime to research all of this, so I get the condensed information to help my folks. :) Thank you
1. Xylitol after meals
2. Closys Ultra Sensitive mouth rinse before brushing. Half of what the bottle recommends to use.
Use for ONLY one minute.
3. Resilient dense tooth brush with good brissels.
4. Crest cavity prevention tooth paste.
5. Start brushing by brushing on the inside of teeth on bottom, massage gums.
If going to floss, do it right after brushing with toothpaste still on the teeth.
6. Let toothbrush dry for 24 hours before uses.
7. Rinse with Listerine cool mint or original. Original is tiny bit more powerful.
Always use full strength.
Rinse as long as you can stand it, even if only for s second.
8. Rinse with Act mouthwash zero alcohol Anti-cavity. Purchase smaller bottles, not larger. Larger have more water in them than the smaller bottles.
Best to rinse for a minute.
Thank you!!! 😊❤
You're a star 🌟
Thank you!
after toothpaste do we rinse with water?& spit toothpaste?
or with listerine
Many thanks,my problem IS it's difficult to find act mouthwash in France,IS there a substitute?
@@nellyfleury9019 Same in Brazil. I would like to know too.
I just had my 6 month check up. My hygienist couldn’t stop complimenting me on how fantastic my teeth and gums looked. She wanted to know what I was doing.
I explained that I had started your program last summer and stopped flossing. She was floored! Could not believe it. I gave her the links to your videos.
She said her mind was blown and couldn’t wait to watch your videos.
Thank you Dr Ellie. I tell everyone about you and your program.👏👏👏👍
Oh wow! That is awesome. Thank you for your story and sharing it.
@@dr.elliephillipsI started your recommendation 7 months ago I had predontel disease. I just had a dental X-ray s week ago and X-ray came out great. But my hygienist removed plaque. Why did I still get plaque. What am I doing wrong?
@@dr.elliephillips Why are you against CPC mouthwashes which have been proven to combat gum disease?
@@Berrypancakes229 were you still diagnosed with periodontal disease?
@@jss.2020 no. My X-ray were good. No more periodtal disease.. praise God my Heavenly Father.
I made this note for myself & hubby... so thought it would be useful for someone.
CLEANING TEETH
WHEN?
- 1. Right before you go to sleep. No eating drinking after.
- 2. Time when you know you won’t eat/drink for another hour. (Great if there can be under 12 hours between the cleans.
HOW TO CLEAN?
1. Begin with mouthwash CloSYS - FOR 1 MINUTE ONLY! Tiny sherry glass amount. Bathe from side to side... tip head forward/sideways so all the difficult areas are ‘bathed’... no need to squish or flush, it will run down where it needs to as you bathe the teeth fully. (If ‘pockets’... bathe gently and mouth will do the work - don’t follow instructions on bottle, follow Dr Ellie.). Then spit out.
2. Wet toothbrush, add 2 peas of toothpaste then small circles on the gums where root is. (If you decide you have to floss use it at this stage so it drags the toothpaste through the gaps in the teeth.
3. Wash your toothbrush and stand up so it dries well!
4. Spit out the blob of toothpaste (don’t wash off with water).
5. Now rinse with Listerine Cool Mint (or Original which is a tiny bit more powerful) only: If too sensitive, rinse for long as you can stand it, don’t dilute it even if you can only stand it for a second! If it starts burning spit it out (you will build up tolerance and be able to rinse longer as you go on to 30/60 seconds). Squish in and out between teeth (it is liquid floss 😊).
6. The moment it starts to burn, wash it off with ACT for ideally 1 minute (the most important mouth rinse).
You don't so the Xylitol step?
Yes, I chew one after every meal.
How has your treatement been going so far?@@AnnemarieDoolin
It absolutely works - I am 67 and haven’t been to a dentist for 15 years out of fear and money - I was having gum problems last August - I knew I had to go see a dentist but knew I had many cavities and they would want to do more than just help with with my gums.- then One of her videos showed up on my feed. I started her routine and I can not believe what has happened- I only wish I took a before and after picture of my teeth - bleeding gums and cavities - today you would not believe how they repaired naturally - Thank you so much for teaching the truth!!! You have been such a blessing and I encourage everyone - especially us who are terrified of dentists - to start this routine. It doesn’t take long - no more than 5 mins - morning and night.
So it's healed all your cavities?
Thats what i want to know too!@hazelchief-rabbit5903
Are your cavities healed? Please reply
@@ChandrimaBhadraburman cavities are more difficult to heal than gums sir
@@ChandrimaBhadraburman ofc she already said do you need written proof
I feel like my teeth are already getting better by listening to you.
😂😂😂
Same here 😂😂😂
😂😂
Yes! I find I become immeasurably fitter by watching workout videos, especially the Pilates ones. I think it’s the cringing I do with those because they look hard!
Seriously, I think this doctor’s system is sound. I watched the video twice to get all my questions answered, then did some research. So far the system is working for me.
:D
I started this system right after my dental cleaning where I was told I needed a root canal. I decided to wait and see if this could help repair it. At my next dentist visit the tooth was fine, I honestly forgot about it because it felt fine. 4 of my kids also went to the dentist yesterday and all are cavity free. I am a lifelong believer. Thank you.
Who would believe that?
I need this to remineralize my teeth. Heal cavity' and abses on my gums. Rooth canal going bad
@@LoyolaManWhat do you mean?
Hmm root canal level of damage seems a bit unbelievable to be treatable/repairable at home. As I understand it, for someone to recommend root canal that would mean you have a cavity reaching all the way down to the tooth nerve, and it has been infected. Maybe the infection of the soft tissue inside is gone, but then how would that long hole reaching all the way down be filled without a dentist?
@@mitkoogrozev maybe not the situation here but in my experience I've had rootcanal recomended by some dentists in teeth where there wasn't even any pain and then had super painfull situations saved by another dentist without the root canal treatment where I absolutely expected it. So could also depend if its an actuall necessity or a greedy doctor.
Dr Ellie’s mentors in dental education forced her to take higher level science classes because she was a woman. I wonder if they were hoping she might drop out? However, not only did it make her a better dentist because she is more qualified, but what she learned made her more compassionate to her patience to truly want to help them! I’d say God uses everything (even potential setbacks) for our good and His glory!
Back then, yes. They definitely wanted her to drop out, go home and get married, and raise kids. Back then, most people thought that was a woman’s place. Not as a dentist.
@@sweetlorraine664 you are wiser than most.
Amen 🙌
Yall are assuming too much. What if she was just a smart student who needed the extra challenge to get even better?
He gets the most mileage out of everything.
Just started this system 2 weeks ago and I’m starting to see a difference already! I’m 80 years old have most of my own teeth. I can see the plaque already diminishing! Will give you updates! Thank you Dr Ellie !
@MaryDurica yes! I do have gum recession especially on my lower front teeth. I can see it beginning to heal already but I do realize it takes time! Thanks for asking! God bless!
@MaryDurica Yes! I follow her system precisely and it’s so easy to do. The Zylitol several times a day is so important as this helps with making your teeth white. Hope this helps and God Bless!
Hi Dr Ellie.. I have a big space in my teeth…almost all my teeth has a space so the food stack between each tooth so I need to floss and I have sensitive teeth too that’s why I use sensodyne toothpaste.. What I’m going to do? Thank you Doc.
pls can u guide me the exact quantity to be used each time of each products of the whole kit.i dont know how much quantity to be taken while using them each time.pls pls help me and guide me..somewhere i am going wrong so my taste buds are getting spoiled .so pls help me to guide mw
This is what I do: i went to the store like cvs- Walmart etc and got 3 small travel containers like for shampoo etc because these have small caps on them. I fill them up with each liquid and then use just 1 capful of each to do the job.hope this helps you!
What a wonderful English lady you are. I know many Dentists, studied A levels with them. They all became Dentists for the money. Dr Ellie is a refreshingly honest health care professional. Thank you Dr Ellie, this will help my mom and my whole family.

Wow - I started following Dr Ellie's protocol with all of the products just over 3 months ago. I had a very sore tooth at the time on my bottom jaw and knew it couldn't be good. The soreness gradually went away and is now completely gone (before if I even touched that area on my face - it hurt!). Teeth are white and tartar is gone (I am a coffee drinker). This woman really knows what she is talking about!! I think she is right that the small amount of flouride in some of the products that is spit out is probably not too bad as it is such a tiny amount. So glad I found this woman!!
Gives me hope I’ve been doing it for about 37 days to significant improvements. I am having less bleeding.
I’m back with great news from my 15 year old daughter. She was diagnosed with cavities after routine cleaning and check up. We came back home with $1400 invoice. I showed her this video and supplied her with all needed including Zellies. She was following really carefully this routine every day. I’m sure at least before bed she did all the rinses. So 8 months later at another dentist her new X-rays showed no cavity at all. Hygienist praised her clean teeth and she is happy smiling that $1400 is in the trash 😊👍
1400 is in the wallet*** 😛
You went to another dentist?
@@lindseynero1000 I think so, and it was wise. The other dentist would have found something to work on, just to make the money
I was unable to on one side of my back jaws for around 4-5 years. I was always swollen and tender and biting was impossible. My dentist as the time tried everything and NOTHING worked. Then came Dr Phillips. I watched her video on RUclips and followed her instructions. It has not been 3 months but the swelling I had around my molar and the pain and sensitivity in my teeth is totally gone. I can eat like a normal person once again. Thank you so much Dr Phillips, your reccommendations worked like magic.
@MaryDuricalook into oil pulling with coconut oil, as well as taking vitamin D, cod liver oil, and butter oil supplements.
Thanks Dr Phillips may help a d bless you more for helping lots people like me
I must say, after doing this for about 3 weeks, the progress in my dental and gum health is undeniable, on all fronts. I’m big on giving credit and speaking highly for those that deserve it, and you have provided a service to people basically for free (get her book and her mints as a thank you) and have helped many with your advice. Thank you, may you have many blessings.
I appreciate you taking the time to leave an update. If you haven’t already - do download the free booklet at DrEllie.com and maybe consider my oral health video bootcamp where you may discover some extra things you can learn to upgrade the system of care even more.
Thanks again! Ellie
Do you have to use both mouthwash at the end?
do you have to use both mouthwash at the end?
@@krishnaajarie1723 so as I understand it you use the closys first and time it for a min, then spit out and brush your teeth starting with the gums first, then spit out the toothpaste and use listerine for min 30 secs if you can handle it, or longer if you like as long as you still feel comfortable, spit that out and finally use Act for a minute. Don’t eat and drink anything for at least 30mins. That’s it in a nutshell, good luck.
Hi..we have to rinse with water also right? In between.. please explain
Ok I’m back! A month later, here’s the update:
No plaque build up ever! I wake up with no morning breath but that could be also due to my diet. I have had some receding gums and one of them was in the front and it’s literally slowly growing back to its normal place! I had a sensitivity on one of my back tooth’s but not any more after being consistent with this regiment. I’m so happy with the results!!. I have been struggling with sensitivity and gum recession for a while. It’s not too bad but it worried me for a long time and now thanks to Dr. Ellie i have a better teeth regiment than ever before. I’ll update in 3 months.
Fantastic!
good to hear. hope it’s still going well for you
Did you experience any sensitivity in the beginning?
I am using the program for now 2 weeks and my sensitivity increased. I’m wondering if it is the Zellies …. I really want this system to work. I switched from using Risewell for a few months … my teeth got yellow and thin looking.
Hydrogen peroxide is actually great for receding gum lines. Apparently, fluoride in the toothpaste can cause a receding gum line add peroxide helps heal the gums so they can grow back
@@GameChanger597 ??dr Ellie specifically says not to use peroxide.?? Where did you come across this information?
I just want to say I've been doing this complete mouth care system for a year. My gums were experiencing heavy recession and sensitivity. I tried this complete mouth care sustem And bought all the items listed and it WORKS my gums are in much better shape that my dentist was shocked!!! And I didn't floss!! Instead I used the interdental picks to get food that was stuck between my teeth but NO FLOSSING my gums were getting irritated because of that. For all those that are skeptical try it!!! It works!!!
Do you do all steps including Listerine? I was wondering since it's acidic and has coloring, that it might stain teeth. Plus it might kill good bacteria together with the bad. I was wondering if skipping Listerine and just using ACT after brushing would get the same results. Also, do you rinse out ACT with water? If you dont rinse out, can it stain teeth since it's green and has food coloring
@@samanthal7051 do not use water to rinse afterwards I spit about 3-4 times after the final application as I have a tendency to be sensitive to dental products, but it does NOT stain your teeth.
After following Dr Ellie’s system for 6 months, I returned to my dentist for my biannual checkup. The hygienist and doc commented on how great my teeth and gums looked. Even my deep pocket lessened considerably. No issues-no bleeding or sensitivity. I have probably flossed about 4 times over the past months (stuff between my teeth and honestly, I just wanted to check and see exactly what was different, since I tend to be skeptical… ) i had no buildup or food particles I will say that the only area I have to watch is the permanent retainer on my lower teeth. There was the tiniest bit of plaque that I had the staff scrape away. But otherwise, I told them to skip the cleaning and polishing etc. My dentist wasn’t happy and shook his head when I tried to explain what I was trying to do, but it’s my mouth! What could he do? The rest of the staff though seemed very interested in my experience. I’ll see how my next checkup goes!
Well done! It can be quite disheartening when dentists and doctors become somewhat patronising and condescending, especially when one is doing something which is clearly showing benefit etc.
Hey, I wonder about my permanent metal retainer. I had braces 1 year in HS to straighten a couple teeth thanks to my parents, but the dentist put the metal retainer across my bottom front 6 teeth. I was 16-17 and now I’m almost 33 and it’s still in there but I think last time I went to a dentist was maybe 18 years old. So I wonder if it’s ever supposed to come out? Does it help or hurt to keep it? Only annoyance is it catches food or like a chia seed if I eat something with that. Did your dentist say it stays in for life? I guess the metal is surgical steel? Thanks.
It probably needs to come out. My metal retainer on bottom teeth rotted the molars in the back where the dentist used a wire band around the molars. They stayed on too many years. Just get it checked out.
@@apriljohnson6667 sorry you had to go through that. Thanks for the advice
@@fastrabbitcrochetThere’s a cool YT channel The Bentist (he’s an orthodontist named Ben). He recommends against permanent retainers b/c of the problems you mentioned. He sells inexpensive water flossing machines that are required if you have braces or permanent retainers.
I'm really glad you addressed the fluoride and other ingredients. That was going to prevent me from listening further but I ended up watching the whole video
Fluoride is a neurotoxin and should be avoided at all cost. Mouth washers can lead to high blood pressure as well. Do you own research and don't always trust one source.
Same here!! ❤
Truly an amazing oral routine. I'm 65 years old and can't believe the change in 5 weeks of using Dr. Ellie's system: Zellies, Closys, Crest anticavity, Listerine, and ACT. Tartar is slowly disappearing and teeth are brighter. Thank you, Dr. Ellie, for your brilliant plan!
Was your tartar a brown/black colour and really hard? Asking from Australia.🦘
Update! I had another dental cleaning today. My 2nd since my last post 3 months ago. MY GUMS HAVE IMPROVED even more! The previous 2 visits my gums were sensitive and I have a low tolerance for pain. My entire mouth had to be numb so that I could get through my cleaning. Today, I requested just a topical solution that lasted for about 10-15 mins but no sensitivity and no gum recession. There were improvements the first time I started the oral health system but since then it’s been 5 months and the results are outstanding! The hygienist told me to keep up what I’m doing. Thank you Dr. Ellie!!
I was gifted a dental scaler tool in 1970 and used it every month since then to remove any tartar building on my lower teeth, letting the dental hygienist remove other areas at my six month visits. However, the past three months I have used most of your recommendations, the Listerine, brushing advice, eating xylitol, chewing xylitol gum or eating the xylitol mints, and I have not built up any tartar whatsoever. My scaler still sits in its holder, now just as a souvenir of the past. No more baking soda, no more whitening strips, no more whitening toothpastes. Your system works! Thank you!
Does her protocol written teeth
@@slee7991 She has a separate video on teeth whitening if you click on her channel account & search for whiten teeth it'll pull the topics up
@@slee7991some say however it is always best to do it and find out for yourself.
@@slee7991 did you watch the video? I'm guessing no.
@@EverydayPeople-tx3js yes, she says it does! Because by building up a strong enamel covering on your teeth that makes them reflect light naturally which is what gives the white appearance.
Now one month since using this system. The turn around in my dental health is so dramatic that, even after only four weeks, it’s hard to remember that my mouth was in the poor and deteriorating condition it was in. Main issue was receding gums accompanied by increasing sensitivity, to the point where my teeth felt weak. If I ate anything hard or crunchy, it almost felt like my teeth would break. But after a month on this system all sensitivity is completely gone. My teeth feel incredibly strong. I can crunch on anything and feel not even a hint of sensitivity. My gums are pink. Can’t say any receding gums have restored. But my gums have a different look, like they are more relaxed. My teeth look and feel incredibly clean. My mouth feels and smells so clean. No bad tastes or odors, just the taste of saliva. And my mouth now seems to be producing more saliva. I cannot be more grateful for Dr. Ellie and this system.
Thanks for the update!
Would you say your receding gums didn’t get worse though? For me this is my main priority since it makes me self conscious
@@krandly8 The opposite. Have yet to notice any actual regrowth, but the recession has stopped. Most striking difference was with sensitivity. Was at the point where eating softer foods (like bread, of all things) was hurting my teeth. Now, nothing. Not a hint of pain or sensitivity. Teeth are rock solid; I can crunch hard foods without thinking about it. I’ve been using the system going into five months now and have zero issues. It’s an invaluable investment.
Did you have any loose teeth due to gum problems
@@kenyaettahboss4240 No loose teeth, but my teeth felt weak. They were starting to break and chip when eating any kind of hard foods - for example, even hard bread crust. At the same time, my gums and teeth were getting super sensitive, which also caused me to avoid eating hard foods. But almost immediately after I started using this system, my teeth strengthened and all sensitivity went away. I’m using the system six months now. I can eat whatever I want without a second thought. Teeth and gums are stronger than ever. Have the sensation that I could bite into a brick and nothing would happen to my teeth. Such a great system. Truly life changing.
Been doing this system 1 week, and wanted to comment on the immediate results from this system. I will preface by saying that I am a skeptic of the big-name products, and especially put off by chemical additives (such as dyes). But I decided to try the system, because, in spite of daily brushing and flossing, my gums have been receding, my teeth getting more and more sensitive, and my mouth doesn’t have the feeling of being clean. In fact, the more I was doing the worse things got. So when one of Dr. Ellie’s earlier videos popped up on my feed, I decided to lay all skepticism aside in the hope that I could get a handle on my deteriorating oral health. I did not order from her company. Instead, I located the products (exact versions shown in this video) at CVS, because I didn’t want to wait 3-4 weeks for delivery. As I stated at the beginning of this comment, I’m only doing this system a week. But after the first try alone, my teeth and gums felt exceptionally clean, the teeth having a very smooth, glossy feeling. After the second day, my teeth tightened up. In other words, they felt stronger, more sturdy. At the end of this first week, my teeth are getting whiter and gums more pink. I am also beginning to notice my morning mouth is cleaning up. Finally, I want to say a few words about this particular Crest toothpaste. After trying an untold number of different brands and varieties, I was struck immediately with this Crest. It has a smooth and creamy feel, and seems to glide across my teeth and gums, unlike other toothpastes that by comparison feel more like scouring powder. I plan to maintain this system, and, at least preliminarily, I am very grateful so far for finally, after many years, feeling like I have a handle on my dental health.
Yes I am afraid of big brands too like crest and listerine but I am going to give this a go
@@pandanustreessame
you say you got your supplies at cvs , what brand of xylitol did you buy?
@@Cream_CurdlR For xylitol, two sources. First, I located pure, granulated xylitol made by a company called “Now.” I got a one-pound pre-packaged bag at a local organic market. Second, I ordered the Zellies gum and mints directly from the doctor’s company. The Now granulated xylitol has a good flavor. It’s made to be used as a sweetener; but I find I need quite a bit, in coffee for example, to get a good balance of sweetness. (I use honey, which is still my preference). Instead, I’ve been taking a pinch of the Now after meals and letting it dissolve under my tongue, then swish around my mouth, and spit out. Produces a clean feeling in my mouth and on my teeth that is a very unique and good experience. I can envision the xylitol neutralizing the acids and bad bacteria as Dr. Ellie has described. The Zellies (mint and gum) have a good flavor and produce exactly the same results. I ordered spearmint, but she sends samples of other flavors. The Fresh Fruit flavor is very good, as well.
Thank you for sharing your encouraging story.
If you would like to learn more - there is a video program on my website DrEllie.com - my oral health bootcamp where you will learn more ways to improve oral health.
Really what you are doing is encouraging your own mouth to heal itself.
It is not the products that heal - but they allow your own mouth to heal your gums and teeth - which is why the results are so miraculous :)
I'm 17 and I'm watching this after having a nightmare about my teeth!! So glad I gave you an hour of my time. I've always been terrible at this stuff, but it'll be a lot easier now that I feel informed and have a routine that's easy to follow. Let's hope my teeth are pretty good when I'm aged! 😘 Thanks.
I started using Dr.Ellie's dental system after reading her book called "Kiss your dentist goodbye." And that's precisely what it did. I haven't been to a dentist in years and have no dental problems at all, thanks to my daily use of this system. It works. If more people used this effective system, they would be able to keep their teeth and avoid serious teeth and gum problems.
how do you remove plaque from behind your back teeth? while using her system. I struggle with that
@@user-be5qg7mr1s electric toothbrush? perhaps
@@user-be5qg7mr1s I find if you do a pull with a teaspoon of granulated xylitol put the xylitol in your mouth rub the granules around all your teeth until it turns to liquid swish it around for as long as you can then spit it out the tartar will start to break up and follow this method good luckxx
@@user-be5qg7mr1s I just brush the back of my teeth
For those of you thinking she’s solely trying to sell products: remember that you can get all of the recommended products outside of her. Consider that for a moment.
Any protocol recommending mouthwash is nonsense
So you don't think she's making any money off of this "system"? From people clicking on links, from her youtube video's, etc. What she's actually selling is an easy, affordable sure bet to your dental woes, why wouldn't that draw the masses? Her system has completely ruined my mouth for almost 2 weeks. Understandably so when doing a deeper dive into the poisons in the products she's recommending.
@@tektako Please provide reasoning behind your statement.
@@QOrtiz something i read somewhere
@@tektako source: trust me bro
I have done the process now for a month. I am 59 have receding gums, especially in the front bottom. I am writing to you to say THANK YOU!!!!!! My gums are actually growing back. Just wait till Bridget, my hygienist see's me. Your a God send. It really works. Especially the Closys. Its a miracle. You are helping so many people. Thank you again...ill send update when I go to dentist. Adrienne.
This system works!!!! I do not know Dr. Ellie or any of her family and I don't have an ownership in any of the products she recommends. I cannot believe the changes in my gums and teeth. For years, I had a deep pocket in the top of my mouth between two teeth. I could not eat anything, especially salads and meat without food being trapped in that pocket. It was uncomfortable to say the least and I needed to floss that area immediately after eating. I also had a pulsating feeling in that area, sometimes worse than others and I just knew I would have to be pulling one of those teeth sometime soon. I also had gum recession in my lower gums and had a definite brown line below my teeth revealing the recession. Well, guess what? I tried Dr. Ellie's cleaning system, and that pocket has seemed to have closed itself up. No kidding! I don't even have to floss between the top teeth that had the pocket anymore and there is no more pulsing pain. I suppose my gums improved there and helped to close up that pocket. I even have noticed hardly any tartar buildup since I started her system. I decided to cancel my last cleaning. My gums on the bottom teeth that I mentioned, grew also to almost completely cover up that brown line showing. It's hard to believe that Dr. Ellie's system works, but it does! I would suggest you try it and don't give up and you will see the changes in your mouth. I would also like to recommend the Soft, Parodontax complete protection toothbrushes. They are very full, soft and the ergonomic handle doesn't slip easily like most toothbrushes. I get mine at Wal-Mart. They come 2/pack. Can't remember the exact price but I think they're $6ish.
I went for my 6 month cleaning because I only started your system a couple of weeks ago and I wanted a clean slate to judge how well it worked. Could not believe how much less sensitive my teeth were during the sonar clean, with hardly any ouchies at all. Hygienist said I had much less plaque than last time. Dentist was also impressed. Then they wanted me to explain the new protocol I was following which I did. I think the hygienist is a bit skeptical that 6 months from now I will be plaque free, but I am fully expecting it. Thanks, Dr Ellie, because years of brushing and flossing just didn't work that well.
So happy that you were able to make the move to a new idea.
This is very hard for a lot of people who have been brainwashed since they were children to simply "accept" the dogma of dentistry - even crazy ideas that have no scientific backing!
If your DDS or RDH is truly interested in "how" your change occurred, my book Mouth Care Comes Clean is a good read for a dental professional.
My first book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye can be more difficult (not just because of the title - but it is more a "story" for people to know about the background that created this system). Mouth Care Comes Clean is about biology of the mouth that was discovered in 2007 by the Human Microbiome Project and how this SHOULD have changed the way dentistry is practiced.
@ChauNguyen-fw2hz When you have healthy oral biofilm it is protective of our gum, tooth and mouth tissues. It is a bulletproof film composed of proteins and healthy bacteria designed to coat our entire mouth and protect it from chemical, thermal and biological attacks - especially to protect from the chemistry of foods, temperatures (hot and cold) of drinks and foods and from cavity and gum disease bacteria.
Certain products (baking soda, artificial whitening and peroxide) literally dissolve this protective coating off our mouths.
Dry mouth will also damage this coating. Long periods of sipping acidic drinks - soda or sports drinks - or for women being pregnant when their saliva pH becomes acidic for 9 months - are all reasons to loose this biofilm protection. Smoking of course will also damage it...which is why smokers have periodontal issues and dry mouth problems.....
The key it to rebuild this biofilm. Zellies at the end of meals will alkalize your mouth.
Then if you do not eat or drink for 1-2 hours the xylitol will feed the good bacteria and enable them to rebuild this biofilm covering.
My Complete Mouth Care System helps rebuild this biofilm covering - working in synergy with xylitol.
You need every product in the system - exactly - and in the correct sequence - for this to work.
For people who experience "burning" from Listerine - it indicates they have lost this protective covering.
The system will rebuild it - and this will take from days to weeks to months - depending on your immune system health and your general speed of healing.
If you are an unhealthy smoker who eats a poor diet and is taking many medications - this may take some time.
if you are a healthy person who simply had a few bad habits ( whitening teeth or using baking soda paste etc for example) then your turn around time may be a few days.
The secret is to only use the Listerine up until it "burns" - and then spit out - and rinse with the ACT.
Ensure you have the toothpaste residue on your teeth - just spit out the big glob of toothpaste and let the Listerine wash the rest of the toothpaste off your teeth.
Squish the Listerine in and out between your teeth - but only until you fee the "heat" and then spit it out.
Time this if you can - and you will see the time it takes to feel "hot" will extend gradually.
This is your sign that you are developing healthy biofilm.
Do not forget that most of the work is done by xylitol after meals - when your saliva flow is full of proteins after meals.
The system is just the icing on the cake......please let me know if this helps explain how to achieve the results you want.
Brush lower than the grafts and on the inside areas of your teeth if you are nervous to brush on top of the grafts.
You could even use a clean cloth and use your finger to do some gentle massage over the grafts.
The massage is to "call" stem cells to the area - to regrow and heal these wounds.
if you need more help from me - I have an oral health bootcamp at my website DrEllie.com that you may find useful.
That's great news!
Question: did you floss on a daily basis, if at all?
Thanks.
Two words... Oil Pulling. It works and you don't need all these steps with harsh chemicals
@@dr.elliephillipsHi Dr. Ellie making the transition slowly as I've to order some of the items Abroad like Closys, Act and your Zellies. As of now im back on Listerine and since i left it way back in College and Crest. In the meantime ive taken the habit of Xylitol after every meal etc. I feel all this has made a vast improvement. I just couple it with my tongue cleaner routine. Oil pulling i still practice but on the whole your Routine is my main event mornings and evenings before sleeping. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
I bought everything in your system including your book! I used to be a daily flosser but my teeth feel better now after just a few weeks. Thanks for sharing preventative care. I did a degree in Health Sciences and it made me depressed how little they talk about preventative care as opposed to treatment.
Can please you give me a list of what your purchsed? I would like to try it all.
@@singhmaster4 If you go to my website DrEllie.com there is a free downloadable booklet and more information and links to ensure you get the absolute correct products. One small mistake and this strategy will not work as well...that's why we sell an introduction "kit" to kick off the process. I also have an oral health bootcamp if you want to learn more about how this system works. You may enjoy that too. welcome to the world of preventive oral health :)

Doctor would you mind to please guide me how and wherec to buy your products, book and the " Kit".
And guide the Kik start ??
Please.
Does listening have fluoride?
@@roselortega6758 Think you meant listerine. No it doesn't, only the Act mouth rinse and toothpaste do.
Thank you Dr. Phillips, you are one of the few honest dentist. It is becoming so difficult to find a dentist who does not want me to pay for their exotic vacations. Preventative maintenance is the most cost effective way to go.
I agree with you. I have also found it impossible to interest dental insurance companies in the idea of promoting home care preventive strategies. This is insane.
@@dr.elliephillips It really is insane since medical insurance companies push preventative medical because they found that, in the long run, it saves them BIG money on costly treatments.
@@dr.elliephillipsdoesn’t stuff like Listerine or products that contain hydrogen peroxide kill the good bacteria in your mouth?
@@LastTrump7 Big and misunderstood topic. Lots of myths. DrEllie.com for my strategies that have worked for many decades to stop, prevent and even reverse cavities and gum disease. Healthy bacteria multiply with my strategies and soon I hope to prove all these fear mongers completely wrong with their misinformation.
@@LastTrump7 Not accurate and not when used in my system of care.
Dr. Ellie, I just found your channel after my molar teeth extraction a month ago. Since then, I religiously follow your complete mouth care system. I stop flossing. Seeing amazing results. No feeling sensitive, bleeding stopped, and my mouth health is outstanding. Thank you, and God bless you.
1. Closys - ultra sensitive for 30 sec-1 min before brushing
2. Crest remineralization tooth paste before cavities - 2 green pea size toothpaste
3. Mouth watchers or Dr plotka Bristle or dense toothbrush/ no electric brushes and brush/ massage the gums
4. Listerine cool mint or original rinse for as long as you can stand it.
5. ACT anticavity
6. Zellies chewies or gums
Lol. Just wanted to point out you don't want to rinse your mouth out with Listeria. I think you meant to type Listerine
@@scsablan8956 she covers that
Watch the video once again and delete this as erroneous blunder
I may be wrong but I think it’s Crest Cavity toothpaste (helps stop cavities before they start) and not Crest remineralising
@@nbaker7758 You're not wrong & it's the "gum health" Crest she warns against with the bad formula
This genius lady is an answer to prayer.
They made it difficult for you to become a dentist and it worked out in your favor :) well done lady🙏
It worked in our favor.
I’ve followed Ellie’s system religiously for two months since a dental cleaning. No plaque at all has formed in my mouth. Normally, in the past I’d detect plaque at the back of my lower front teeth within three days.
@@acf9406 She mentioned in another video that the products are known by other names in other countries.
Me too!!!
she did. I know the first MW that she used is available in UK under different name.
I went to Tijuana recently for dental work, and my interest in Tijuana caused RUclips to serve up Dr. Ellie videos.
me too!
Thank you Dr Ellie for over 50 years I’ve battled with deep cleanings and gum problems started about 4 months ago. I did dentist visits for cleanings every 3 months. Just left the dentist had my 1st cleaning since starting your protocol. Well dentist was shocked my cleaning to about 10 minutes no place build up and gums are perfect. Dentist asked for your information. THANK YOU!!!
Recommend my book Mouth Care Comes Clean to give you a dentist to "explain" what you have been doing! Thanks for your message.
What about SCOPE? Is it ok to or?
@@cherylwilliams4738 She doesn't recommend anything other than the products that she says works, if you start using substitutes you won't get the same results
So thankful to you. My son and I we are using your system since Setember 1st . I see such a diference in cleaniness, whitness, gums healthier . The dentist told my son needed to do 6 cavities. But exatly that little black lines in his teeth the y disappeared. I am soooo happy and thankful i would love to show you the pictures. ❤❤❤❤ God bless you a lot!!! His teeth is clean, his gums healthy and fresh breath. ❤❤❤❤.
I used to brush my teeth all the time after any food. And always was feeling they were dirty. I did the same to him. Now only 2 times a day in your system is what we really needed. 😊
It took me about 10 months to get consistent enough with this routine to reverse my dental health. Today for the first time in years my gums did not bleed when i brushed!! I am over the moon.
I can't believe I stumbled upon this video today! I've been looking for better dental advice for a very long time.
About 30 years ago I noticed my gums starting to recede, and got NO help or advice from any dentist since then. Now I'm dealing with small cavities above the enamel.
I'm going to get your complete system and start tomorrow.
Please know how grateful I am for your amazing research, your teaching skills, and your willingness to spread the word!
Bless you.
Great to meet you!!!!
If those "small cavities" you are talking about are developing "class V" (five) cavities ....on the sides of your teeth - I'd advise you to be very S L O W in deciding to have these filled ever.
They will not get worse if you stay on my Complete Mouth Care System and any sensitivity will go away - often quickly - within days.
Fillings in this area can upset the nerve inside the tooth and may lead to tooth death a decade later.
This is why I suggest you do not fill these lesions but take care of them and keep having them evaluated by a conservative dentist - who agrees with this philosophy about Class V fillings :)
You may like to explore my oral health bootcamp at DrEllie.com where other people have been working to learn this new way of looking after their teeth.
They often report how they felt at first and some of their doubts or questions - but you will see nothing but joy and rejoicing in the recent and follow up comments - it's a fun place to learn more ways to improve oral health.
How’s it going?
Who else is excited at the possibility of Dr. Ellie creating her own line of products one day??!!!
She does -- it's the Zellies xylitol candies. They are excellent.
Thank you for your "excitement" -
I'd love to create this line of products - but only if I was sure they'd be as effective (or more effective) than the ones I currently recommend.
I have thought about this for decades.
The problem is that dentistry still does not have a way to test mouth HEALTH - they only know how to detect disease and damage.
We need to learn about the composition of a healthy oral biofilm.
This is the key piece of the puzzle.
If we could test people who have been on my system for 5-40 years and look at the microbial patterning of their oral biofilm - we would have a great starting point....a point for comparison.
I have a study design, and am willing to do it - but I have had no success finding sponsorship/funding for this project.
I asked many associations and people including Delta Dental Foundation (associated with Delta Dental Insurance) who said home care was not part of their "wheelhouse". LOL!
@@dr.elliephillipscould you crowdsource it? If you could get your message out perhaps through health-related podcasts etc, then maybe millions of us can organically fund It.
I’ve been searching for healthy dental solutions for yearrrrs and would be honored to be a part of this health revolution.
I'm sorry this line has no laughing possibilities, so I have to reply somehow and agreeing to this no option!!!!! … for example Xylitol comes from gmo corn .. if you want to put this into your body then best regards
Wish the products were available in Ireland 🇮🇪
We have Listerine and Xylitol sugar. That's it. I found a mouth rinse and toothpaste called Ultradex that is supposed to be equivalent. I started using all about 3 weeks ago and immediately saw a difference. No plaque is forming and no food is getting stuck. I've stopped flossing too - no need ! Receding gums are improving. And back teeth look whiter, just waiting for front teeth to catch up. Thank you so much Dr Ellie - been looking for you for years ! Hope Zellies, Crest toothpaste and the other products reach Ireland soon 😊
Dr. Ellie I will be singing my praises for you to my children and (if Im lucky enough) to my grandchildren aswell! ❤ I just want to share my story - My first pregnancy resulted in 8 big cavities which one of them resulted to a root canal so I was sad and desperate and tried everything that promised to save my teeth including oil pulling, salt rinses, I was recommended going to cleanings every 3months… nothing seemed to help. Then I stumbled on xylitol and boy did just that one thing helped to turn around my oral health. I chewed xylitol gums everyday after every meal. I made a habit out of it. Then to top it I discovered your videos so I introduced your system to my regime. Yesterday I got back from the dentist for my yearly appointment and they did some x-rays and my dentist just said that it looks more than good on the scans and Ive got ZERO new cavities. My teeth look shiny and white, my gums are pink and I couldnt be more happy. Thank you for being such an amazing human being and teaching us to care for our oral health ❤
Where can I purchase your complete mouth care system?
@@gwenodom7320 Honestly, I have had such success, and read so many, many similar stories here that I want to purchase the products and send them from the US to the rest of the world just as a courtesy! I saw that some of the products are available from Amazon in Italy where I'll be for a month soon, so I may ship a box to myself in Rome. Listerine is very available in stores and pharmacies, but the other products are trickier to find and still heavy for a suitcase. I think one or two products might be found on Amazon Italy.
Hi Doctor. I started using your routine religiously and in a few weeks I saw improvements in my saliva. I was getting this gross brown film on my teeth when slept despite conventional brushing. I was becoming self conscious about it. Anyway, now I’m using the Closys, Listerine, Crest anti cavity and Act and the film has completely stopped forming on my teeth. My gums are less red and look much smoother. They no longer bleed when I brush. Dentists would only recommend deep cleaning. I got one and they wanted me to do another 12 months later. Nothing was improving because it was their only suggestion. Now my mouth is doing better and I will continue for 3-6 months with the complete mouthcare system and Zellies. Thank you.
When Dr Ellie mentions the protective biofilm being removed at cleanings... i specifically remember when I was in high school. I went for my regular cleaning, after she cleaned my teeth, I felt like my bottom permanent retainer area was fuzzy and rough feeling the next day and onwards. Crazy that as a kid, I asked myself in my head, "What did that hygienist do to my teeth?!" They felt so slick and clean BEFORE, and it was noticeably different for months after I left that office. Wow.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS LADY!!
❤🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️🦷❤️
I've followed her system and advice for over a month now and have witnessed a significant change in my teeth! They are noticibly whiter, my gums stopped bleeding and bad taste and smell is GONE.
I CANT BELIEVE IT. THANK YOU DR. ELLIE!
Oh and shout out to Andrew
Huberman for only mentioning you amongst all the resources he consulted on his recent oral care podcast. That speaks volumes about you❤ great work!
I picked up what I needed last night and I have used the system 2x now and I tell you what! I would get this growth behind my 4 front teeth, that NO MATTER WHAT I did it wouldn't brush off unless I rubbed it with a towel or cloth. The only thing I feel is a possible crack but the build up/ growth is gone. Same tooth brush, new system is all that I changed. THANK YOU
What a pleasant lady. I grew up in a very poor home, and my mouth is a mess. Mostly my back teeth.
I've used the clo-sys unflavored rinse for years, it was given to me by an old country dentist who gave me emergency treatment for a spirochete infection which was diagnosed on the spot with a culture. Thank you for explaining the chemistry of this product, I now want to use it daily as a prerinse
I love you. I love you so much. I have thought that my dentists were nuts for a while. They say, "floss more" and I do and it irritates my gums. They say "get a water jet", I do and it's ok but not the best. They clean my teeth twice a year and my teeth are getting worse. I went 10 years without seeing a dentist and my teeth (and gums) were not this bad. I tell them this and they say, "well you should really get your teeth cleaned 3 times a year". But somehow I went more than 10 years and my pockets remained the same, then I come under dentist care and in 2 years my pockets get so bad that I need a "flap" or "LANAP". That's when I came to RUclips searching for other options. I will come back after I have tried your methods.
This video just popped up I thank God for her. I had a bad tooth sending pains to the temple area and top of my head i went to the store and got the products. After the 1st application I feel alot better ...I will come back in a few months with a update. This lady knows what she doing. Thank you Doctor Ellie God bless you and your family. I will get the kit later to support her website plus i need the zellies and her book. I went to the store because I was in so much pain and I want to start gum care immediately 😊
Such rave reviews may only hurt the cause
@@crystalforcharisma8907 how are u doing now? any improvement with her system or no?
I knew i had poor mouth hygien but i never knew how bad my mouth was until my most recent dentist took the time to explain my xrays and what was actually going on with my mouth. I am now actively trying to improve
I love your videos so much Dr. Ellie! I'm almost 60, and in England growing up, we were told such twaddle about oral health. It's a money making business. Never heard oral health explained so concisely, logically and relatable. Thank you so much! I'm going to start this today. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
This is a game-changing system. I've been using this system for almost two months. I have zero sensitivity or bleeding anymore. 🎉
Did you notice more bleeding at the beginning of the treatment ?
A tiny bit, but that went away very quickly.
@@misstakess6495I have been having regular bleeding for 3 months now and using this mouth care system and wondering if it is going to cure the bleeding :(
I was having bleeding and inflamed gums, and using this has completely stopped these issues.
@@misstakess6495 thank you so much ! It is giving me much hope ! ♥️
My last teeth cleaning left my gums hurt & teeth sensitive for over 3 weeks. Last year both Dentist & Hygienist suggested to rinse with peroxide 2-3 times a week after brushing. I did. The gum recession started accelerate 3 times faster. That was depressing to see. Looking for the answer, I run onto Dr. Ellie’s video. I got the Book, and bought the recommended stuff. Your detail explanations are a plus. I have a hope now! Thank you for being a Real Doctor!
How’s it going?
I can vouch for the Xylitol and Act Restoring. Using just those two I turned my teeth and gums around dramatically. I used the blue Act Restoring 0.05% Sodium Fluoride. Still use it. I believe this lady. And I don't believe people easily. But I know that I had DRAMATIC success using two of the products she recommends. Also, she is incredibly smart and has had a passion for achieving ideal oral health for a long time. Care, combined with intellect, combined with practice is true, holistic intelligence- that's something not a lot of people possess and it can't be faked. At least not around me. I'm looking forward to trying this system. There's not a doubt in my mind about it. I'll be back in six months with an update.
Thankyou for this most informative video Dr. Ellie! As a Canadian, 67 yrs old disillusioned by the available standard dental care system we’ve been sold on, I am eager to start your recommended mouth care system tonight! I have purchased all the products and already feel relief simply knowing that I will not be using artificial teeth whitening products. Your success stories of older folks applying the system successfully are so inspiring. 👏🙏🥰
Dr. Ellie, when I tell you, that you were the answer to a ‘ 27 Year Search’ to alleviate my self of dental trauma❗️ I am too beautiful both inside and out to have these dental problems. However, after following your protocol for a few weeks, I am already experiencing success and my confidence restored. ‘SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND, ASK AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN’, that’s real talk. I THANK YOU AND I SHALL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR YOUR RESEARCH, FOR SHARING YOUR FINDINGS AND FOR DILIGENTLY GETTING THE WORD OUT.
This is my joy and I hope just the mid point of my mission to change oral health across the world :)
I gave up on dental professionals over the years, yet I couldn't see a way to reach patient's except through them.
So I kept on trying.
Then came TikTok and RUclips....suggestions from my grandkids who have been using my system all their long 14/15 year lives and know about my passion and ultimate mission.
I tried a quick video and boom.......what a way for us to reach each other!
So delighted you are here and that my system has helped you.

@@dr.elliephillips Dr. my only reservation is the use of fluoride. I know you reference the amount of time it’s used in a day in your explanation but calcifying my pineal gland via use of it concerns me.
Thank you. I've never had anyone explain this to me. I'm 71 years old and I'm going to try your system. It's so simple and makes sense. I'm a retired RN and wish I could have taught others ❤🙏 I've been to many dentists and they don't teach preventitive dentistry. I was just asking myself "why" recently.
It’s been three months since I started your 5 step system , my Gingivitis is gone and I didn’t have any plaque deposit on my teeth.Thank you so much dr.Ellie! Your five system works!
I started this system about 2 weeks ago, and I am so happy to see how much better my teeth are already. I no longer feel plague on my teeth, sensitivity has already improved and my enamel feels smoother and stronger, gums are looking more full.
Plaque is a plague 😂
@@howiecd3861 still using the system? has it been working
I have had gingivitis and periodontal disease for 25+ years--and this is despite taking great care of my teeth. I have had painful periodontal surgeries to stop & repair the damage caused by pathogens. X-rays show the extensive loss of bone from the chronic infection--very discouraging. The surgeries have stopped the damage, as has the use of a Braun Oral-B toothbrush (which has been critical to my recovery). Yet my dental health is still below what I want. I am always on the brink of another periodontal crisis. Again, I do everything that my dentist recommends.
I am going to try this complete oral system. I am ready to try something different.
I fell like I am I. The same boat as you but a much younger age. Let us know how it goes.. going to give this a shot too.
@@BrandieKae I am worried because I am changing my normal routine. It has worked for me since my recovery. It does not achieve perfect health, but it at least stops the decline and keeps me at an ok level of health. In 3 months, I will see my hygienist again. I sure hope that my condition is not horrible.
Let us know the update
@tiffanycoles828 well I have been doing this for about 10 days now and I can testify that I have less tooth pain and my teeth feel really clean. The gums are still healing but look a little better. I will keep going 💪
After following your protocol I went to get my teeth cleaned yesterday and my hygienist said she saw a lot of improvements! The pockets are not as deep in 10 areas!!! Thank you so much!!!!! I keep doing it every day
I love this.....I think taking responsibility for one's own health is so important. As long as healthcare is profit motivated, I don't trust doctors, dentists...etc. And I am a health care provider.
I must thank Dr Ellie. Ive been trying to save my teeth for years. My partner and daughter both have different dental issues. I got the products for us for Christmas . Today is New Years Day. We have all had transformative dental experiences in the last week. This works. Thank you Dr Ellie!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
@@jaziibrahim7413 yes
@jaziibrahim7413 good luck friend!
I’m not a religious person but have used your have system and been GLAD that my teeth are now stronger in checkups. The dentist can’t make me feel pain and then suggest i need work done. That is a tangible benefit, achieved through evidence and scientific knowledge 💋 your dentist goodbye, it feels POWERFUL. ❤ your accent Ellie, i can hear varietals, im hearing a blend which gives you a well-rounded and resounding note of “wisdom gathered through travel” /wine reviewer
You are very kind.
I've certainly had a multitude of experiences and opportunities - many delightful - and some a little more difficult!
Today I delight in "meeting" people through RUclips and having a moment to interact like this.
Thank you for your generous comments.
It is my pleasure to share what I know in the hope it will empower individuals to understand their oral health and avoid unnecessary treatments.
😊
@@dr.elliephillips you are welcome. It’s time and energy consuming to release material like you have, and be revising it as your research grows.
IE your theory of how relative levels of exposure to flouride are substantial or not.
The caveat is that for kidney and other disease for instance, reasonable amounts are excessive.
Some countries have water systems so fluoridated that it is more than enough simply through water in product and from the tap (faucet, if you will) or ground supply.
I respect you enormously that you have stuck your head above the parapet and are now exposed to a range of reactions from people, some who have complicated dental environment which might not respond quickly!
After watching this I realized using the listerine and people with plaque build up and heart disease. Using listerine kills the strep which is what makes the danger in heart disease and dental hygiene. It's make sense. I don't like to floss just because it takes time. I go to get my teeth cleaned once every 3 years while the rest of the family does it every 6 months. The dentist never seems to have issues with my teeth. Yet my husband teases me that I don't take care of my teeth. I don't have plaque build up. He has horrible receding gum line because he brushes to hard and to long. Every six months he has an appointment an dthey tell him he has pockets. I don't. I am so glad I watched this.
Do you still use her system? Is it still working
Been doing this for a week now, and wow! I never felt my mouth so clean in the morning when I wake up. I slipped my scheduled cleaning and plan to go back to my dentist after a month to see what he has to say. My teeth feel so much stronger and brighter in just a week of using this system. I shared it with my husband and son too coz its such a blessing I can’t just keep it to myself. Thank you Dr. Ellie ❤️
Your dentist will say you need a dental cleaning. Your turn?
FYI, my gum was never pink. But now, their getting pink. I am so happy. Keep providing this great information. I was too scared to go to the dentist because my health got worse. So it's been 1 decade that I haven't visited the dentist because of my health getting worst. So, thank you for this information. I have to admit that I used your complete program however some times I used it once a day. However now I'm on track. I now use it 2x a day and regardless I do see results and I'm so happy. I'm definitely trusting you. Thank you! 😂
Thank you. I didn't have a mother who taught me to brush my teeth. I've had teeth problems my whole life because of it. You've helped me a lot.
I am also teaching myself oral health because I'm healing from medical neglect from parental abuse. I'm proud of both of us for finding our way here!
Cheers to a long future of healthy teeth! 🥳🥂
I'm in the same boat as far as not having any parents to teach me oral health growing up.
But I really can't put all the blame on others though.. I too need to take some responsibility. Because it wasn't all their fault. I'm partly to blame and I recognize that
Or .. a FATHER.
🤨😉😇
Teeth program:
1 Zellies xylitol gum or mint after every snack meal or drink, take 2 after meals 5 times a day. Can also take before bed or in middle of night
2 Closys: gently bathe for 1 minute- no more than (don’t need to swish or gargle), focus on gently holding the rinse on areas of concern. You only need an 1 oz. Get the ULTRA SENSITIVE- blue box
This neutralizes ph so ok to use directly after eating
(Do not add flavoring, do not rinse with h20 after)
3 brush, Crest Cavity protection regular “help stop cavities before they start” - very important that it says this
Brush: dense, resistant, she doesn’t like ⚡️ ones.
Wet brush, add two pea sized drops
Gum massage, extra attention to gum pockets
Start on inside/back, below teeth- roots of teeth
Circles or up and down
May want to wet brush again and add some more paste for top teeth if need more paste
This stimulates stem cells!
Preserve brand is ok for brush but she likes mouth watchers dr plankas
She doesn’t recommend floss but can do now w paste on teeth, can just spot check areas now and then where you know food gets stuck or problem areas.
Make sure toothbrush has 24 hours to dry
When traveling take 2
Spit, don’t rinse!
4 Rinse vigorously w Listerine 30-60 seconds (ONLY AS LONG AS YOU CAN STAND IT- don’t push it- build up to 1 min), OG is most whitening but can use cool mint. Force is between teeth - this is your floss!!
Make sure ADA seal is on it
5 rinse w anticavity zero alcohol ACT 1 min, don’t get the bigger bottle- it’s watered down. You want .o5%
*wait 15 min before putting retainer on
No eating or drinking for 30 minutes
Before bed is most important time for the program. After coffee in a.m. is great time also.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you!!
Thanks so much
So do you wait 30 min before using the xylitol mint after the last rinse in the routine?
@@CarolElliott-k9zI don’t wait
I've put all your recommended items in my Amazon cart while I watched the video so I know they are the exact items to start my new oral regimen, thank you for your hard work and most of all thank you for sharing this information with us, I doubted I'd be able to keep my teeth for my entire life but because of you and your videos I feel like I stand a chance.
Currently in a financial rut as my parents moved around half a year ago. Last time i went to the dentist i had a cavity they wanted to get filled. I pass out getting shots, so imagine the fear of knowing it's literally within half a foot of my eyes. I cant begin this entire process all at once, so ill be building up step by step. My local kroger carries at least half of whats recommended here. Cant wait to start. I'm sad i neglected oral care as long as i have, but better late than never. Im glad such educational content is freely available online
Started using this cleaning system this week. What a god send! For the last few years I have been getting cleanings every 4 months, flossing and brushing on schedule and still had gum recession and plaque on my teeth, with eventual tartar build up. I just did not understand that the mouth biome and bad bacteria was the cause. Using this system my teeth feel smooth and clean all the time. Fingers crossed it begins to reverse the gum recession.
Not sure what she says about oil pulling, but I’d suggest looking into oil pulling with coconut oil, as well as taking vitamin D, cod liver oil, and butter oil supplements.
@@everleighxoxoxoil pulling instead of flossing?
I started the full system 4 days ago. It is totally working for me already. So grateful! 🦋
So you let your toothbrush dry for 24 hours? Does that mean you would need multiple toothbrushes to brush before bed and in the morning?
@@g5kj1987 yes, I am using two now. One for morning and one for night.
I have been doing this program for a month and I had an issue around a crown with root canal and even after a month my teeth are definitely looking whiter and the gum around the crown has resolved. I'm so happy with my teeth and gums! You're amazing Dr Ellie!
I will say, you are a very generous person giving all this information for free! Thank you
I am *amazed* at how rapidly this process works. I was beginning to have gum issues and tooth sensitivity. Within TWO days of working this process, the sensitivity went away *completely*. I am excited to see the results with my gums as the days tick off! Dr. Ellie, THANK YOU!
Congratulations - this is such great news. This system works best for a “healthy” person as it is stimulating your own mouth to heal itself.
But the good news is that this system works for everyone - even people who smoke or have poor digestive health for example. These individuals have more challenges to overcome so they may have to wait a week or two longer for the same results.
In almost all cases gums and dental decay will be healed (or substantially improved) within 3- 6 months - so it’s perfect to use this system between dental visits.
The only time it won’t work is if someone has a dead tooth. There is no way to bring a dead tooth back to life!
Thanks so much for your comment and feedback. Once again I’m so happy you tried this - congratulations!
I don’t even know how I found you, but I’m so grateful! I’ve struggled with teeth issues since I can remember. After I viewed this video, I decided to buy and try your system.
After one day my mouth felt different, clean and my teeth felt silky- like they do after a cleaning. Next morning they still felt that way! 3 days later & I’ve not had fuzzy teeth. I know it’s only been 3 days, but I’m noticing the difference big time.
It’s so easy too!!! Looks like I’ll be buying your system & mints/gum for many years to come.
I’m so grateful for you, you don’t even know- thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing, may I ask you if the toothpaste tasted minty or not. I'm actually trying to collect the products since I'm not in the U.S
@@jaziibrahim7413yes the toothpaste tastes minty- I think she gives alternatives for those not in the US. Where are you located?
@@zdoggizzle Thank you for your response. I'm from the middle east.
@@jaziibrahim7413 did you have any luck collecting the products?
Hi Dr. Ellie! I have been using your wonderful system since 2012, when I was at my wits end with my teeth. I was on a forum, and someone mentioned your book Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye. I got it from the library and immediately started your Complete Mouth Care System. IT WORKS. The only time I run into problems is when I get a bit cavalier and try other dental products. It always causes irritation. I jump right back to your system, and all is well! Thank you for all of your expertise!
Thanks for sharing! So glad to hear from you. Congratulations on your success!
Yes, avoiding all the current marketing and the scandalous wrong information on the Internet is often a challenge!
I am here to help you stay on course if you ever need extra help 😁
@@dr.elliephillips Thanks for now being on RUclips! It's awesome. Keeps me on the straight and narrow, and I keep picking up new tips from you.
Started your system 2 months ago tarter gone - my gums burn with listerine is this normal? Teeth are whiter not sipping on water all day has not only helped teeth but saliva has helped my microbiome - stomach upset gone - thank you ❤️I did have my teerh cleaned tho and was so much better- thanks again
This Doctor is down to earth and very professional.
This woman is brilliant and knowledgeable. Thank you dr Ellie. No one like you. Everyone else is after the money only. She’s so different and passionate.
I have been on this mission for my entire career.
I think the initial motivation was some dental experiences in my childhood.
Over the years it became compounded by what I saw and the blatant refusal of dentistry to look for better solutions.
Thank you for your kind comment .
There is still a lot of work to be done to stop unnecessary dental pain and suffering.
RUclips is a wonderful source of information. Usually, being English, I am not too keen on many American sites ( Dr Berg being an exception) . Somehow I found myself drawn to Dr Ellie, despite her accent, and watched a few of her videos having had years of dental problems, despite excellent hygiene. Today, watching this, I realised I would have been studying at Chelsea College of Physical Education, Eastbourne, whilst she was also training there in Dentistry!!!
Maybe that is why I enjoyed her style and, like Dr Berg, passion for her subject without it being about profit. I admire people with integrity, so often lacking in today’s money obsessed society. Thank you Dr E.
@@dr.elliephillipswhy are my comments gone deleted ? About Xylitol
@@dr.elliephillips I hope you have a successor in mind for whenever you decide to pass on the torch! Thank you for changing so many lives.
Oh I so wish you had been my dentist before I was talked into giving up my upper teeth, now I know it was more gum disease than tooth decay that was the issue! Blessings to you!
I've done 2 nights of the complete system (I'm easing into the program by starting with once a day for the whole program)..... The Listerine was easier to tolerate even by the second night! Soon, I shall buy the Original formula - and will give it a go, for the whitening benefits! (even though my teeth are nice enough already). Thanks Dr Ellie! I just love that I found you!
The system is supposed to be used at least twice a day
@@LoyolaMan Yes, I know - I am just getting used to it for now - then I will go to twice a day.
I am so grateful to have come across this video. This video was very informative in a very easy to understand manner that made complete sense. And as many people cannot afford dental visits or treatment, this information is vital to keeping our teeth healthy without huge financial sacrifices or costs. Thank you Dr. Ellie Phillips for sharing your knowledge and experience to help humanity be able to properly care for our oral health which is very important to our overall health. Looking forward to starting your complete system. From Ontario, Canada 👍
Ma'am. I'm so thankful to God to have come across this. I was wondering how I can brush how I do and still feel plaque. Thus system not only helped that but they're whiter! No whitening strips! Also my family is getting on board because I can't stop talking about it! God bless you❤❤❤
I pray for healing during these hard times. I can only continue to pray for healing. I love my teeth now and I have a new outlook on our health
Do you live in the United States?
Here it is very easy to get the products I recommend - most of them are in Walmart - or you can get through Amazon.
Just be sure to get the exact products.
I have a free downloadable booklet on my website at DrEllie.com
There are links to the products there.
Begin with xylitol at the end of meals - either Zellies mints or you can use granular ( which is less expensive but I don't sell - so you will have to go to a health store or Amazon to find).
Get the correct Crest paste ( $1.95) and start there - using the paste twice a day.
It works in synergy with the xylitol.
You can start this program like this if necessary and see improvements - if you stop eating and drinking between meals and always clean your gums and teeth before sleeping at night. Even have a little xylitol after cleaning your teeth....let a few crystals dissolve on your tongue.....just see the difference this will make :)
Timestamps for my own reference:
0:12 Intro
8:34 Xylitol after meals (2 xylitol mints after each meal), and last thing at night before going to sleep
12:18 Closys Ultra Sensitive (use to rinse/bathe mouth for 1 minute before brushing)
18:46 Brush teeth with ‘Mouthwatchers’ toothbrush, and ‘Crest Cavity Protection Regular Paste’ (this toothpaste says “helps stop cavities before they start”).
27:20 How to brush teeth (make sure to moisten toothbrush before brushing)
33:08 If you choose to floss (although not necessary), use something like the ‘Hello’ floss that doesn’t have PFAS in it, and floss while you have the toothpaste on your teeth.
34:21 Wash toothbrush in running water, and stand it up on the ceramic toothbrush holder stand. Use one toothbrush in the morning, and a different toothbrush at night. This is to allow each toothbrush 24 hours to dry between uses.
When traveling, use cheap disposable toothbrushes, because it’s not good to store toothbrushes in low oxygen environments like travel cases or luggage due to anaerobic bacteria.
36:37 Spit out the glob of toothpaste. Rinse off the rest of the toothpaste with ‘Listerine’ mouthwash (original or cool mint version) by squishing it in your mouth for as long as you can stand it.
46:29 After using the ‘Listerine’, wash it off with ‘Act’ 0.05% mouthwash for 1 minute.
52:08 Do the ‘Complete Mouth Care System’ before you go to sleep, without eating or drinking anything afterwards. When doing this system, select a time when you won’t be eating or drinking for at least 1-2 hours after you do the system, such as before you go to work in the morning. To sum up, do the ‘Complete Mouth Care System’ in the morning, and do it again 12 hours later before going to sleep.
TIP: No rinsing with water between the steps.
Thank You!
When to use the oil pulling?
best video yet. been on the system for about a month and have already seen my plaque dissolving thank you.
I am so happy I found you. I have been on your system for 1 month. My teeth look amazing
Wonderful! I love hearing this.
You are a tooth fairy WARRIOR, Dr. Ellie! We all know why they yanked you off the stage when you said flossing is not needed!$$! Your demonstration of how to brush in this video is perfectly clear and very helpful... answered all my questions on brushing. Wish I had found you a year ago before I had major gum surgery with the pinhole technique to repair gum recession on 9 teeth. Sooooo brutal on my face and mouth and so expensive and now my lower left lip area is both tender and numb. It is slowly improving but could take years or maybe never to heal. I just ordered everything I need to get started on your program with the hope I will not need dental work again for the rest of my life.
I'm litterally about to cry reading some of these comments. I just started a journey with my dentist through a gum infection and I have receding gums, a black triangle between my lower feont teeth, and a few deeper pockets. I have very crowded teeth and have been considering braces for that.
I have to clear up the infection first. I just got through one of your other videos and I'm just now only 6 minutes into this one for the first time and I already have such a good outlook for this healing process!! I'm going to get through this video and see if I can save my mouth health! I am determined too! I feel as though I can trust you and that you have the best in mind for the people you are trying to help! Thank you so much!!
This is one of the most amazing finds I've had on RUclips.
I'm starting this immediately and already telling everyone I know about this. Thank you and God bless you!
So far, so good. As of a week in, I have a much healthier mouth. My teeth feel more slippery, and it doesn't dry out as bad. My gums stopped bleeding. And I can taste my food better. I've been following the steps to a Tee and will continue to do so!
Thank you so much!!! ❤
I would like to ask you, I found the same toothpaste one regular and the other one with a slight minty taste. Which one did you get?
@@jaziibrahim7413 do you rinse with water at the end or just stop after the act?
I use the exact brand and type of products that she lists.
I am also starting to see my tongue is much more pink, and it seems like my gums are growing back in the spaces in between my teeth. Im really happy I found this mouth care system. 🪥❤️
@@TakkahoNo you don't rinse with water according to the booklet.
Oh my Dr. Ellie, before I started your complete system about a month ago, I had a front tooth that was showing decay. I was going to go to a Dentist, but I saw your video and thought seriously about the things you talked about. My decaying tooth is reversing and I am extremely happy. I am so sure that in a few months, the tooth will completely reverse. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
@valeriecrawford7066 How did the tooth with decay reversed. Was the tooth has bad decay ? Thanks
@@gratitudetouniverse3754 The front tooth has very little brown decay now. The remainder of the tooth looks polished. I look forward to seeing all of the tooth polished.
Are you still doing the program and how are your teeth doing? @@valeriecrawford7066
How early in life can you start this process? Want to do it for my daughter. Thank youuuuu... you have opened my eyes. Cant wait to see a change in my life❤
You are so amazing for doing this! Thank goodness we finally have someone like you! So grateful and can’t wait to try! Will definitely check in to let everyone know how it worked for me! Thank you for all your work! We need more people like you!
Did it work?
Thank you for sharing your system. At 78, I just wish I had known how to properly take care of my teeth. In the last year, I had gum surgery on 3 quads. I may not have to have the 4th quad done now that I’m properly taking care of my teeth. Actually, I’m now obsessed with taking care of my teeth! Again, thank you!
Thank you Ellie for this thorough video and for also mentioning the certain ingredients in the products that are undesirable but not a major concern. I have been a label reader for many years and was hesitant with the products when I started this almost 2 weeks ago. But after this updated video, you've eased my fears about the coloring, fluoride, etc. The benefits are so well worth it.
I was worried about my receding gum line, that's how I stumbled upon your video. I used to floss every night for years. I stopped flossing when I learned in another video of yours that it can damage the gums. Your system makes complete and total sense to me. And it so easy and quick. I love how clean my teeth feel now. Also my teeth are much whiter. I've always had stains from tea, etc.
I had a dentist appointment coming up in 2 weeks but postponed it today until March. I am excited to test this and see if my gum line improves. When I go for my check up I will probably ask them not to do the cleaning. At the dentist, scraping the tarter off my teeth was the worst. I am thinking I won't have to endure that anymore. Thank you very much!!!
I've been trying this system for about a month now and have similar results to you. My gums have a little receding and am excited to see if they stop at my next dental visit! My teeth are so smooth and clean all day!
I’ve been doing the system just two weeks, but my oral health, which had been declining similarly to what you described about yours, has done a complete turn around. I had done everything else to maintain healthy teeth and gums, and nothing stopped the steady and discouraging decline. But Dr. Ellie’s system produced immediate results. Now I feel like I finally have a handle on the situation and that my oral health is finally improving.
Do any of you who have had success happen to be on prescription medications or smoke?
@@jackiemcdonell1737 Neither.
@@jackiemcdonell1737 neither.
Omg, I need to take better care of my oral teeth, because my mouth is getting sensitive and notice my gum is starting to recede, because i have sweet tooth. I need to learn to restore my receding gums. It’s where I come across your video. Thank you Dr Phillips.
so instead of going and seeing someone you go to youtube that has a fuck ton of misinformation on it. your very smart.
I'm from Germany and currently learning this for my parents. I'm just glad that someone out there put in a lifetime to research all of this, so I get the condensed information to help my folks. :) Thank you
Hello there!! Could you tell me what similar products I can get in Germany?
@@susaninan I wish I knew. It wasn't as easy as I thought because we don't have the same products here. Sorry I can't be of much help. :/
I see Crest toothpaste is available to buy online in Germany.
