  1. When I use it on the gentlest setting, I try to keep the stream of water away from my gums. Same when I use floss. I no longer go up into the gums and wrap the floss around my teeth like my dental professionals instructed. When I followed their directions, my gums looked horrible. I'm very grateful that through Dr Ellie's system they look so much healthier now and have come up nicely around my bottom teeth.

  2. You came to the WRONG place to make this comment. She's trying to help you, Einstein!

  3. My dentist told me to do the same thing. Vigorous flossing is good for gums was the implication. I noticed however that my gums were looking worse. I feel like such a fool for my blind obedience! So grateful (beyond words) to have found Dr Ellie to set things straight. For the first time in 60 years, I feel I am getting the right advice for how to take care of my mouth.

  4. She fully explains her rationale for choosing these products on her website.

  5. She does cover how to do gum massage in her tooth brushing video, but I would love to learn more about it as well.

  6. May I ask what brand of xylitol you purchase that comes from birch? Most that I have found are from corn, probably most genetically modified. I prefer the stuff from birch trees. 🙂

  7.  @pvp6077  I agree. People are free to research further. Plus Dr Ellie has two books and a couple of websites that go into a lot more detail and do site references. How much do people expect from a freakn YouTube video? It's not a dissertation fer heavns sake. 🙄

  8. That's great! 👍 Glad to hear your success story. 🙂

  9. Congrats! I'm about one month in and so looking forward to excellent results like yours. 😊

  10.  @dr.elliephillips  These extra details about xylitol are so interesting and good to know! 👍

  11.  @dr.elliephillips  Just like the history of medicine-- wrong about so many things! And today the field of what's called 'science' is more polluted than ever. Plus social media sound bites can never tell the whole story. That's why your experience, vast expertise, benevolence, and generous sharing as a doctor is so very valued. 🙏😇💕

  12. Always a gracious, kind response from drellie. ❤️

  13. ​ @dr.elliephillips I read lots of comments on your videos of people saying that they pull with Xylitol or swish it around in their mouths with a little water. It would be great if you could do a video on this. Or just on pulling as opposed to rinsing. You may have already done one but it seems this is a subject that could use some clarification.

  14. That's great! I think xylitol has something to do with your sinuses improving.

  15. ​ @chrislastnam6822  Yeah, I'm afraid to deviate myself. There's something about the synergistic way her recommended products work together that bring excellent results.

  16.  @azrainstorm75  Seems like it takes about 4 months or a bit longer on her program to see results. The longer you go, the better it gets. Best wishes to you for strong mouth health.

  17. I use both gum and mints and also Xylitol crystals.
    5
  18. I am interested in that subject too and would love to hear her discuss it. I'm confused about using the Listerine and the risks relates to blood pressure.

  19. I have terrible staining as well. I wish she would address this issue that effects many of us. So now we need to have dental cleanings to remove it? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose and damage the protection were getting?

  20. Well put, and I agree 💯!

  21. ​ @yitzchokpollack152 Dr Ellie says to mix some xylitol in with the toothpaste and scrub those stained areas with it daily. It worked for me. Even on teeth I didn't use that combo on, the staining went away after a few months.. I don't know why but I was super happy about that. Hopefully, that will happen for you too.

  22. She repeatedly says not to substitute products. They are designed to work synergistically.

  23. 3 months, she says.

  24. ​ @dr.elliephillips I just found you the other day and I'm so excited to try your system! Problem is, I have an issue with mint and having strong flavors in my mouth since I regularly take homeopathic remedies. Do you have any suggestions for me on that? Thank you. I appreciate this info so very much! 😊

  25. I suspected these headlines were a sham. Have you noticed lately how many headlines point to this or that thing causing an increase risk of heart attacks and strokes? It's constant and it's a cover for what really caused an increase in heart attacks and strokes. (Hint: it's the thing most people took in 2021.) Take care of yourselves, folks. And many thanks to Dr. Ellie for this comprehensive explanation.

  26. She doesn't agree. It would be great to hear them discuss/ debate these issues. Dr Ellie has a track record these other dentists don't have, so my money's with her.

  27. Thanks for your comment. I just read about cetylpyridinium chloride and how it can create brown stains on teeth. I guess there's no way around it if using the System. Ironically though, it causes you to need a dental cleaning!
    3
  28. Same for me. I really don't like the artificial ingredients and fluoride in the products, but it comes down to results and this system gets them!
    3
  29. Also if you're concerned about your gums, just don't bring the floss all the way up to the gum line and be gentle. I have a couple of spots between my teeth that collect food and always have to floss those areas.

  30. Me too. I hate ingredients like fluoride and artificial colors, but it's important to put it in perspective and keep in mind the overall benefit which is, hopefully, substantial.

  31.  @Maggie-zr2ow  Thank you.👍

  32. Good to hear you comment on that documentary​. So many people quote it as if it's gospel. I think the best bet is to go to a highly qualified advanced endodontist who uses all the latest techniques for a proper root canal. Be prepared to $pend though.
    2
  33. Agree. Please heed these comments and leave it off. It's distracting. Dr. Ellie's voice is enough and what we wanna hear.

  34. I have the same dark staining from the total mouth care system. I think it's an ingredient in the ACT that causes the brown stains- only for some of us. Wish I knew how to remove it rather than having it roughly scraped off during a cleaning... Which from what I understand would be a bad thing for my teeth. It would damage the biofilm.

  35. Ain't that the truth?? Greed is the name of the game. 🤑

  36. I saw where she answered this question and she said it doesn't matter.
    2
  37. I have the brown staining too. It's really gotten bad after about a month and a half on the System. I don't know what's causing it. I hope Dr Ellie discusses it since a good number of us get it.
    2
  38. ​ @lja000 I'm with you. I suspect that my dentist's suggestions are causing me more problems. They are in business and what do they care if you lose your teeth? They just make more money! I'm planning to try her system.
    2
  39. I heard her recommend miswak sticks for people who are dead set against using fluoride products.

  40. ​ @dr.elliephillips Thank you so much for this recommendation!! My cats have had terrible dental problems. I thought that was such an odd question for someone to ask and yet you answered- fabulous! 😸💕

  41.  @dr.elliephillips  For sure.👍

  42. ​ @user-ry1vi1jc7o People need to remember that they profit off your illness. They want you sick and with health problems to make money off your illness to keep them in business. They will go to great lengths to instill fear and try to convince you with their fake 'science.' I wish more people would wake up to the predatory nature of all things conventionally medical.

  43. Xylitol has helped my digestion-- more specifically, my elimination. ​ @v.e.7236

  44. I massage my gums with a xylitol toothpaste when I get up in the morning, before my morning meal, and then do the system after I eat and drink. Hope that is supportive, even though not part of the total mouth care system.

  45. ​ @melmil9836 They don't tell you why you have it because THEY DON'T KNOW, lol. Nor do they know how to fix it. They only know how to do the ineffective procedures they've been taught so that they can make money.

  46. ​ @dr.elliephillips So glad to hear you address this problem! I wondered if brushing the brown areas more vigorously would hurt my teeth. I did do that in some areas and I noticed the staining improved. I'm going to try mixing xylitol with the paste on some of my other teeth but since the browning is close to the gum line I have to be careful not to scrub that delicate area too roughly. I wonder if a smaller brush would be more effective to target the brown stains.

  47.  @SunrayStar  Thanks, but I'm more worried about my gums since some of the discoloration is at the gum line.

  48.  @SunrayStar  I've been brushing the way Dr Ellie suggests, with the xylitol and toothpaste and I notice the brown stains are improving considerably. Very happy about that!

  49. It's terribly sad how we've been brainwashed by the medical indu$trial complex. Thankfully, some of us are a bit smarter and look outside the proverbial box. I'm so grateful for Dr Ellie and to all the smart doctors out there who the medical establishment refers to as 'quacks.' (the irony!) The past few years I've come to learn that most of what the system is selling is a scam.

  50. ​ @jessecortez9449  I take Calc Flour, Calc Phos, and Silica cell salts daily too. They are said to be good for teeth hair nails and bones. I hope they are helping! I do wonder what effect they have on my teeth when I put them under my tongue. I imagine the ones made with sucrose are worse than the lactose based ones.
