Default Re: My teeth are remineralizing.

Dr. Ellie actually recommends plain crest toothpaste.

our protocol is as follows:

6.5 grams xylitol daily. I actually brush my kids teeth with xylitol and water. We had a lot of carries in my older daughter and this has made her teeth beautiful and white.

We then rinse with listerine.

Then rinse with Bubblegum ACT.

We do not ingest any flouride. I do however believe that flouride rinse is affective.

We do this twice daily.

And, in the beginning when her teeth were really struggling we would rub MI paste on them in the middle of the day.

My daughter had three visible areas of decay. Within eight weeks we saw a noticeable difference. It has been a year now and she has very white bright teeth without cavities.

Now, this is the method we as a family choose.

I know other who have choose to go with Winston Price's view point and have also done well.

It also seems that a lot here like the Welda toothpaste...I have no experience with that.

I will be honest and say that I have three mercury fillings in my mouth from when I was wee and I don't use hydrogen peroxide because I have heard that the peroxide can help to dissolve the fillings. Now, I do not know if this is true or not...but, I'm not going to take that chance. Also, I have heard that it can lead to gum problems by causing recession...again, I don't have any link to this...but, it worries me so I don't do it.

The wonderful thing about all of this is that there is more than one way to heal and you just need to figure out what your method will be.

Dr. Ellie's method takes six weeks to see a difference and six months to one year to heal cavities less than 4mm deep. Anything over 4mm deep is harder to heal and may need a filling.

If I was in need of a filling I would consider HealOzone, especially for the kids. This is a new technique that is pure ozone shot on the tooth that is supposed to kill the bacteria and then allow the tooth to start the process of strenghthening. It is expensive and not covered by insurance and still in the early stages of development in the US.
