Skip Dental Cleanings

[@elmoomle4565]

Floss daily...brush with baking soda...scrap tongue...rinse with diluted hydrogen peroxide. Have been doing the above for some 4 decades...have visited a dentist half a dozen times in that time, for broken tooth/chipped tooth/broken filling...and each time the dentist asked, "so you just had your teeth cleaned?" When I explained my routine...'silence' was the response.

No bacteria can live in bicarbonate of soda. I use bicarb as a mouth wash and to clean my teeth twice a day. Most times I see the dentist is when I break a tooth.

I am a former hygienist and disagreed with the whole concept of 6 month checkups, fluoride application and rootplaning to address minor periodontal pockets. I was disillusioned as a clinician and quickly realized that it was a business first and foremost. From my observations most people just need to practice consistent hygiene. The number 1 preventer of dental problems is the use of a water irrigator. I had patients in their 80s who used them and never had cavities or gum inflammation. Brush your teeth with a dry brush, covering all surfaces...and then go in with toothpaste. It's not the paste that cleans. Minty breath can be mistaken for clean teeth. Don't smoke. You will eventually lose teeth if you do. Don't drink sugary sodas with citric acid. My son went 5 years without a cleaning and had no concerns when he finally did. I think both medicine and dentistry overtreats for $.

I had not done cleanings for 20 years, and on December 6, 2023, I went to a dental cleaning. My blood pressure was extremely high, I hate going to the dentist. They did the cleaning anyway. I wound up that night at the ER, 2:00 a.m. and was diagnosed with COVID.

[@christieheyblom]

I used to go to a mainstream dentist, they told me I had a tonne of problems that needed to be addressed and they’d only be able to do a few at a time etc.. i wasn’t upset with them but changed to a different dentist that my family had recommended.. when I went there I told him “I have a lot of issues that need to be fixed” he did the X-rays and told me there was only one minor issue and that it wasn’t urgent. I was like how can that be? Are you sure? He said “I can do more work if you want me to, but I’m not really in the business of creating problems that aren’t there”…. My eyes were completely opened in that moment

[@laurenfromdownsouth]

Same thing happened to me. I was told that I had 7 cavities after a history of no problems at all! Decided to go to another dentist office that was highly recommended and they told me there were no issues with my teeth, that the former office was known for ripping off their customers!

[@BrockOBauma]

I broke a tooth and had to visit a new dentist that was open on weekends. She told me I had several cavities. When I visited my usual dentist, he said I had no cavities and the other dentist was trying to pay her student loans. That was about 10 years ago and I still don't have cavities.

Some dentists are crooks

[@guillermone1]

@@msanrai -Most of them are crooks. I went to one who told me I needed to urgently have 5 tooths extracted followed by implants. Thank God my insurance did not cover the treatment, so I went to another dentist who said I only needed just one filling. Before that negative experience, I had been to another dentist for a cleaning and check-up who told me I had two old fillings that really needed to be replaced with new ones. I didn't think nothing of it, took his advice I had him take out the old ones which were replaced with new fillings. Unfortunately, 6 months later, not only did the fillings fell out but both of my tooth cracked after biting into something hard when before, never had any problems before with the old ones. Thats when I learn not to fix something that is not broken. I went back and told the dentist the problem, but the dentist suggested instead of fillings, recommended crowns which I later realized was much more profitable. I gave him the okay to go ahead with the procedure. A few days later after he completed the job, and although the crown looked natural, it always felt uncomfortable, like a foreign object was placed inside my mouth. I told the dentist about it, but instead of offering a solution, he got both upset and defensive, perhaps even offended. For that reason, I decided not to get a crown for the other tooth. I found it strange that a professional in the dental industry would react in such a way. I decided never to return and told family and friends about him. Barely a few years later the crown felled off, now need a replacement and have to deal with this issue again. Back then I was very naive and just didn't know, really thought doctors had the patient's best interest at heart but now realized many of them are a bunch of thugs, chasing after money whose main motivation is to squeeze out as much money as they can from the patient's insurance. This type of offenses and unethical behavior needs to be punishable, and have dentist held criminally liable for performing unnecessary procedures. These so-called professionals should never be allowed to take advantage of patients, violating patient trust and should never be allowed to practice, but rather ultimately have their license revoked preventing them from ever practicing again.

[@WeaponizeCelibacy]

I went in for a cleaning about 1.5 year ago. They convinced me I needed a root canal and scheduled me for one within a few days. Mind you - I was experiencing no dental pain whatsoever, but they insisted I must be. My head was spinning over the diagnosis, so I went along with it. I should have stood up for myself and said no thank you, just a cleaning, please. This mistake cost me $1800 even with insurance. They never got around to giving me the cleaning I made the appointment for because the x-rays and root canal prep were so time consuming. I left feeling like I was ripped off and like I never want to visit a dentist again. I have a hard time trusting anyone in any medical field anymore. It's all about $$$.

[@cutepig8078]

I would pick a modest small dental office. They built a bunch of huge dental offices in my city. One has a jumbo screen that is 2 stories high that is turned on all night. That doesn't even include the equipment they had to buy to actually fix your teeth. It is no wonder that if you go there they will "find" something to fix in your mouth. My Dad often sees clients that come from these huge buildings for a second opinion and surprise surprise they don't actually have the cavities they were told they have, or at least not as many.

Some good and some bad information here. Xylitol is a great product and it does work to reduce plaque. Dr Ellie talked about plaque (whiteish build up) as being small substances packed together and because of that it's not hard to get off so you need very little pressure. A good analogy of brushing is it's like dust on a butterflies wing, because it's more about being precise and accuracy than scrubbing the crap out of your teeth with a hard toothbrush (this causes abrasion or wear on the teeth). The reason a soft toothbrush is recommended is because the bristles are more flexible and more likely to find spaces between the teeth/under the gum to actually increase the surface area you are cleaning. I do agree that most people don't need a dental cleaning because they can do a good job keeping it clean themselves but that requires active thought, you cannot just brush your teeth on autopilot and expect everything to be clean. You need to get the bristles down near the gums because the gums act like a ditch and catch bacteria and build up the tooth, and sneak under the gums. Fun fact: dentistry has advanced to the point where more people lose teeth now a days due to gum problems (lack of effort or lack of cleanings) than they do from cavities. You can have the visible teeth be clean and still need a cleaning from bacteria/infection under the gums (bleeding on brushing/flossing is a sign of infection under the gums). However if you floss every day (or realistically every 2nd day because it takes time for the clumps of plaque to build up, once a day is just recommended because it decreases the likelihood you miss spots) then you will keep under the gums healthy as well and realistically don't need cleanings. It takes about 2 weeks of consistency to improve an infection (gingivitis), and you can get gingivitis a million times in your life. It will come back if you don't take care of yourself. Gums are more important than teeth, they're like the ground that holds a fence post up. You could have the most gorgeous fence posts but if there's no ground to hold them then those fence posts are coming out :). Source: Dental hygienist

This is really good information. I am a dentist and the vast majority of my patients do in fact need cleanings because they have calculus; I also see a lot of perio patients. But I always tell them that the prophy is not what keeps their teeth healthy - it’s the home care that matters most, and I do promote xylitol. I like this video and will probably start referring people to it. Thanks!

[@5GreenAcres]

The key is to use a water pic regularly to get rid of the start of calculus. Btw...why do you encourage and use fluoride in peoples mouths? Fluoride is a neurotoxin. Brain toxin. Please read the book The Fluoride Deception and discover how they talked the ADA into using it in peoples mouths and water treatment plants. It is a byproduct of phosphate companies and is a toxic substance. So the phosphate companies discovered that they can sell it vs PAYING for the toxic waste disposal. Sickening.

Are you a cardiologist too? "Xylitol may affect cardiovascular health" per the U.S. NIH.

The results highlight the need for further study of long-term cardiovascular health risks from sugar alcohols, and artificial sweeteners that were thought to be safe"

Dentist in private practice since 1993 here. Cavities are like your health. Some runners in great shape with great diets drop dead at 30. Some overweight terrible eaters live to 100. I have found decay to be genetic. some get none regardless of what they do and others get tons in spite of brushing and flossing. If you are in that first category you can skip years with no issues at all. if you are in the second, youll have a problem every time. Oh and cavities are subjective. if you see an aggressive dentist they may suggest treatment another dentist may not. Do any physicians say "skip routine check ups" probably not the advice dentists give are generalities. people should see a dentist yearly. just like i should change my oil every 5k miles. if i dont my car probably wont explode if im at 20k but its better for the engine. similarly find a CONSERVATIVE dentist, FLOSS every day, brush 2x a day and do what works for you

You have to get the plaque removed every so often or it will build up behind your teeth. It's basically a calcified bone or mineral that hardens over time from the saliva coming from the bottom of the tongue and the other part is on the back of the mouth near the esophagus area.

Dentist here. The main reason for professional cleaning is largely to address periodontal disease, which is a different theme to the strep mutans talked about. Strep mutans is more relevant to dental cavities. I dont think a cleaning is necessary when one only has soft plaque and minimal calculus above the gum line. In that case, it is more about better home care regime consisting of good home cleaning and diet with minimal refined sugars. A professional clean is necessary when one has gum disease consisting of calculus that is affecting gum health, characterised by red, bleeding gums, deep probing depths etc. (Caused by different bacteria such as p. Gingivalis, not s. Mutans). To summarise, dental cleaning is for patients who are at risk of gum disease, not so much dental cavities caused by strep mutans.

I said no and rescheduled to then have the appointment cancelled twice the day before stating the dentist was going in for surgery himself.

I realized decades ago the dentistry is a big scam and a racket. Just hunting for things to do that they can charge you for. He'll do one procedure, then he'll put "a watch" on some other tooth, setting up some future procedure and associated charge. That "watch" was put on my tooth about 30 years ago, I never went back, and nothing happened to my teeth. If I had gone back, he would have drilled the tooth out and filled it for no reason. And his secretary refused to leave me alone about scheduling another appointment.

A dentist told my dad many years ago that the main thing is to do not let food particles sit on your teeth for over 24 hours. He said that is when they start decay process. So if you get it off all before bed you will be fine, unless you are prone to decay or have acidic saliva. But ideally it is best to brush after eating and at bedtime. I have only brushed and floss at bedtime for the past 10 years and have not had any issues at all. I do a very thorough brushing I spend about 5 minutes brushing and I focus on one tooth at a time. Only occasionally will I use baking soda and I only use a very small amount of toothpaste that is ADA approved. Also the high cost of having dental fillings and crowns and other procedures is so much that is big motivation to take care of my teeth.

[@Juohmaru79]

Well said my fellow colleague. In simple terms, it's a game of numbers. When you floss and brush your teeth, you don't actually eliminate the bacteria. You simply reduce the bad ones (s.mutans) to such low numbers that aren't really harmful. After that they begin to slowly reform. It must be said that if you skip your oral hygiene, the bacteria not only begin to increase in numbers (making them more harmful) but also gradually show diversity in plaque composition. New bacteria show up,like porphyromonas gingivalis, that cause serious gum disease. There is also strong correlation between periodontal disease and cardiovascular problems. So it's key to maintain a consistent oral hygiene and cut down on your sucrose intake if possible. Stay healthy!

A friend of mine got a letter card from her dentist to come in and get a checkup and teeth cleaned. After her cleaning for weeks she complained about her teeth hurting a lot. 2 months later she lost all her teeth. Mind you, she had very healthy teeth and never had any major problems with her teeth before. She was always proud of her teeth. And it showed when she smiled. But when she went in for check up and got talked into getting a cleaning, that's when everything fell apart and went down hill for her. She started having her teeth fall out and also break into pieces when eating anything including bread. She eventually went into such a depression that she is no longer with us anymore. Her family believes her dentists ruined her teeth which snowballed down to ruining her life until her demise. I felt so bad for her, because she had great teeth. When she smiled she had a gorgeous big smile with beautiful teeth. Until that day she went into the dentist.

Make sure you start adding xylitol into your routine Just chewing that little bit of xylitol government after you eat makes a huge difference. And I personally still floss but I don't floss until after I've started to brush my teeth so I'm flossing with the fluoride crest paste that she recommends and then I go back and brush again and start the rinse cycle that she recommends with all the various products. Congratulations! The link between bad teeth and heart attacks is astounding and the theory is is that those pieces of plaque are detaching from your teeth it's getting clogged in your arteries about 20 years ago when they did a huge study looking at Widowmaker type heart attacks that's exactly what the consistency was of those clots when they tried to find out what were the consistent factors All these individuals never flossed and that plaque was getting in the arteries clogging up taking men out. When I read the article. It just grossed me out. Started flossing every night no matter what. That was a huge game changer.

Dr. Ellie, your system has helped my gum disease! I had quite a few number 8 and 9 pockets in January. I've been using your system since then. I went to the dentist today (July 31) and had my numbers read and they have improved a lot! I had maybe three fives and one 6. The dental hygienist said not only did the numbers go down but the pockets are healing and not as open as they were! It's not perfect but definitely going in the right direction!! As she was cleaning there wasn't much blood at all! I wanted to let you know how much your system has helped me!! Thank you!

Products are a bit more expensive in Oz as you have to order them on Amazon, eBay, healthy kiwis or iherb but if you stick up when there are specials on it can work out ok.

[@kati3849]

Can you explain how we know if we have deep pockets

[@LisaMatthews-qs7le]

@@kati3849 my understanding is that pockets are different to recession. Your gums can be greatly receding but if your gums are still tight around the tooth you have no pockets. A pocket can often be seen visually as a kind of looser fitting gum around the tooth but dentists / periodontists will often measure them and call out the numbers before cleanings. 3 and below are ok (the lower the better). 4 to 9 are very problematic and probably mean tooth loss down the track unless you get things under control. Her system has helped me in 3 months

[@rainacherienne1010]

@@LisaMatthews-qs7leDo you guys mean the system from this video helps pockets, meaning using xylitol?

[@LisaMatthews-qs7le]

@@rainacherienne1010 yes but using xylitol is only half the system. The other half is using three mouth washes and a specific toothpaste twice a day. It takes 6 months to shrink pockets but my measurements were better at my periodontist appointment 6 months into the protocol. Gum recession and bone regrowth can apparently happen from here but I’m thinking it might take up to two years. But it definitely works and my periodontist said whatever I’d been doing was a game changer and my mouth was the best she’d seen it. Also far less tartar buildup and far less bleeding than usual. Really excellent results and you’ll notice the difference from day one in terms of a cleaner healthier looking mouth

[@kathygirlygirl4109]

AWESOME video Dr. Ellie! Because of you, I am free of dentist cleanings once again. I never use to go get my teeth cleaned. I didn't have plaque on my teeth. People made me feel guilty for not doing it. It's when I started to go that my gums became a receding mess. I was bleaching, deep flossing, getting cleanings 1 time a year but I knew something wasn't right. I came across your Receding Gum video and started the process. I told my dentist about you and he was "Going to look into it". Well, after my year was up, I went in for a check up and told him almost all my black diamonds were gone and the few I had were reducing dramatically in size. When he peeked in, he was blown away! I went home and made a copy of your book and took it back to him with the updated video where you talk about regrowing your gums. He said, "I'm going to have to try this. I haven't heard anything back but he said, You're gonna put me out of business, and we laughed. He is a great and very knowledgeable dentist but can always learn more and he loves that. Thank you. My brother was doing part of your routine and ended up with weird bacterial patterns all over his mouth and his dentist told him not to use Crest toothpaste. I asked if he was using everything you said and of course that was a no. I said, it's not going to work unless you have everything Dr. Ellie talks about in her routine so we will see. I am very happy with what it has done in my mouth. The dentist said I was an anomaly and said I have teeth of a teenager and I am 62!

[@chahahc]

I suspect that in pregnancy, in order to protect the fetus, the body becomes hyper sensitive to any potential pathogens. So the bacteria in the plaque ends up triggering the morning sickness, which goes away when removed through dental cleanings. This is also why cravings for sour fermented things like pickles are common in pregnancy as lactofermented foods have antiseptic properties against pathogenic microbes.

Diet has a lot to do with western dental health. In the west we eat over processed mushy foods that make it easy to consume so our body doesn’t get the msg to our brain that we chewed enough & stop eating as it was designed to do when we eat solid fresh veggies & meats. Chewing harder foods make stronger jaw lines, too. Overcrowded teeth, which causes a lot of cleaning problems, was not a problem for Neanderthals or any society now that still eats a diet with chewy foods. It’s good for every stage of our digestive system, including our mouth. Chewing increases bone strength. Extra saliva needed to process chewy/raw veggies cleans teeth of food particles & keeps overgrowth of bacteria in check. That’s not even going into the sugars (including all the different names used so we don’t see how much they add to everything that we eat when they candy our food). If any of the top 3 ingredients in your food includes sugar- don’t eat it.
