My best day as a Dentist was the day I Retired !! I enjoyed helping people and ultimately knowing inside that I would be very happy to have Myself as My Own Dentist ! But dealing with so many lousy patients, employees, other Dentists, Insurance Companies, Government regulations, over the years, just took all joy out of it ! I’ve never looked back and don’t miss it At All ! A few of the people I do, but most of them, and all the Business and Government BS !… Not a Bit !
I was given sweets all through my early childhood, and all my back teeth were filled very early. I made damned sure this wouldn't happen to my daughter and she got her first tiny filling when she was forty. What a difference.
It’s genetic. I’ve had sweets my entire life, no cavities but my gums are a mess. You are either or, I’m so happy for your child though, you are a good parent.
Keep in mind that in our history as Homo Sapiens - but before ~12000 years ago and before the agricultural devolution - when nobody brushed or flossed, let alone visited a dental health practitioner, dental health was much better in that period than nowadays. Earlier man had presumably healthy gums, no caries, straight teeth, no crowding, and wisdom teeth fully erupted without impaction in even the smallest framed specimens. We know this from examination of thousands of skeletal remains. If, as a modern human, you stopped eating carbohydrates but never visited a dentist ever again, your dental health would absolutely remain solid.
But you can't completely cut carbs. Or let's say, humans have always consumed carbs - fruits are carbs for example. However, it was much less for sure.
@@al1976-v7m Only seasonally and ancestral fruits were far less sweet. The purpose of fruit for humans is to fatten up before shortages of real food are anticipated. I eat zero carbs, except for trace glycogen in muscle meat.
Jesse I want to tell you it's been a couple months since I had tuned in to the internet. Today when I clicked on this episode, I was immediately struck by how different you look. Fabulously handsome, whatever you are eating it has transformed your features. Thankyou for this sorely needed interview/lecture. I am a childhood victim of everything addressed here, including 3rd molar removals X4 as a teen. My mom was an RN working for oral surgeon/orthodontists, I was subject to it all.
Thank you very much, Jesse. Through your previous interview with Dr Burhenne, I discovered Ask the dentist and through this website i have found a functional dentist in London, The Health Society. With their help I'm finally getting a grip on my gum disease. They've been of great help. Plus I switched to a very low carb diet, which massively reduced the plaque.
I perform root canals on almost a daily basis for almost 30 years. Also have published research on tx & post op pain. Extreme long term success asymptomatic if done successfully. Most common failure or rct teeth is fracture/cracks in roots. Haven’t placed metal fillings since 1996 and remove 3rd molars when impacted & also remove teeth in front of impacted 3rds occasionally due to damage from the wisdom teeth. Find a good dentist & invest in prevention. Also, don’t eat carbs and most of your dental diseases disappear. 😮
Carbs? So let me ask you. My wife is crazy. She breastfed our kids, feeds them nothing but veggies and fruits and from the moment they have had teeth she has brushed them with that non Floride expensive toothpaste, flossed and scraped their teeth and yet I still have to pay dentist for cavities and caps...it's crazy. No lie....shes crazy....they RARELY get candy and if they do it won't be sticky stuff like caramel.
Simple carbs avoid, but we need whole fruits, veggies, and fiber. There are antioxidant and anti-inflammatory phytochemicals that carnivores miss. Organ meat, red and processed meats have known carcinogens and pro inflammatory agent. Sure, we need to avoid simple sugar.
@lizhall2961 do you have studies to back that organ meats and red meats ate carcinogenic? Humans have been eating these since the beginning of time. Humans also cured meat long before refrigeration was invented.
@@lizhall2961 I believed some of that when I was a vegetarian in the 1980’s & 1990’s then 10 years ago, kidney stones arthritis NAFLD (honey). Keto reversed all of it but after a few years, KetoVore has me at my most optimal training level. You don’t need most vitamins IF you are not eating carbs as there is nothing in plants that is essential that you can’t also get in red fatty meat BUT there are many essential nutrients you CANNOT get in plants that you can only find in red fatty meat. 🥩
Carnivore fixed all my teeth issues. Don't need a dentist anymore. Just wish I wouldn't have all these fillings when I was a teenager. Didn't know any better.
Same here, now I’m stuck with the fillings. Had I been carnivore back then I likely wouldn’t have needed fillings at all. Now I’m stuck with this toxic crap. Thanks Dental industry.
Every time I go online I find another video telling me about another lie we’ve all been told our entire lives so others can make money. And they wonder why so many of us laugh when they say “trust the science”.
The problem about getting second and third opinions is that you will quickly run out of covered oral exams and will have to pay out-of-pocket because everytime you go to a dentist, periodontist, oral surgeon, etc , they will want to do their own exam.
GREAT conversation Jesse and Dr Mark. 😃👏👏👏. I listened to dr Mercola years ago about root calls & fillings. I thenI went to a biological or a biodentical dentist years ago to get silver fillings out. Had the white fillings put in. These were from the five molars that I eventually got pulled (from root canals). No more issues since I stopped going to the dentist about 9 years ago. I only eat real food, prioritizing animal protein and fats with some carbs, no grains or underground veggies. No alcohol,smoking or junk foods.
I found this online. It might be helpful but I’d check it against what Dr. B said and do more research into whether their recommendation is evidenced-based to ensure you aren’t doing more harm than good! Unfortunately you have to fact check everyone these days!!!
My family suffered car salesman dentistry until our teeth were destroyed before we figured out they were unscrupulous thieves. We are still looking for an honest dentist.
I had my one (and only existing) right lower wisdom tooth removed back in 1989 when I was 21 in the Army and had a gold crown on the second molar and didn't have any complications thankfully. Also, my crown is still in place to this day.
This was ah-mazing. Thank you Jesse and Dr. Burhenne. So happy i found Dr. B thru Jesse. His website, Instagram, and podcasts are SO GOOD and helpful! I'm marathoning! And JESSE: You ask THE BEST questions. It's like you're reading my mind! -No matter the guest, you are so insightful. (there were a lot of links mentioned, but none provided that I can see. I found them though. IAOMT, etc) Thank you again!
Correct advice doc i personally attest to the accuracy of what you are saying here, flours white flours are the number 1 worst thing, I intuit that plaque on teeth could mean plaque in arteries too? Flours immediately cause plaque on teeth it’s not nice, whereas a piece of lean chicken with butter or olive oil just feels right to eat, has no fermentable carbohydrates, nothing there really that the bad bacteria can go to town with, and thanks for the reminder about xylitol gum too I am going to order some, important to maintain that optimal PH state in mouth and I think some kefir swishing could help at times too for probiotics God bless
How about brushing teeth with a mix of xylitol and and alkaline mineral powder that is usually taken to balance the body‘s pH (e.g. Dr. Jacob’s Basenpulver - it contains Magnesium citrate, Acacia fibre, Calcium citrate, Potassium citrate, Citrus limon, Stevioside, Zinc citrate, Cholecalciferol, Thiamine hydrochloride). Or is it a matter of the minerals being to abrasive? I just tried it and it seems to work well in terms of cleanliness
This doctor is fascinating and I'm going to re-- listen to it just to try to absorb as much as I can. I can speak to the CRP and it's importance: I wanted that tested to see if my blood vessels were okay because my doctor is trying to force me on to statins because of my LDL which I actually like being high because anyone who lives to be over 100 has high LDL, ie the good type of LDL. In my family we live to be over 100. My CRP was high at 5 1/2 and it should have been under three so immediately I thought my blood vessels might be inflamed. But I've been having gut problems and I realized it had been for more than a year but I didn't know how to address it to my doctor because it basically made only a slight pain in my gut, tho my bowel movements were much different than they'd ever been in my life,-- incorporating occasional diarrhea; loose stools and then a very soft stool which I still have to this day even though we've begun a process to heal the gut, taking metameusel 🤔. Then I went to the dentist and he said I had to have two teeth extracted. ONE had been operated on by way of a root canal and a crown 20 years ago. I've just finished the 2 extractions: He said that the one tooth that looked perfect did have a pretty big infection and he could tell because it began to ooze out as he began to operate on it. THe root canal he said had a small infection but I have a feeling maybe it had no infection despite the X-ray. WHY do I say this? My last encounter with a dentist involved in x-ray that showed the necessity of a root canal and I was sent to a specialist who then said: I want to look at the tooth itself and he took out the filling and he said your tooth is fine! All it needs is another filling. That said, the tooth involved with the root canal had completely disintegrated-- unbeknownst to me because it was covered by a gold crown. I had no pain on either tooth , with only a bit of sensitivity on the tooth where he found an infection. Just for the record, I have been bleeding now for 6 hours and the first 3 hours I had to stay above a small bowl and the blood just dripped into the bowl. Then I took two tea bags and put them in and pressed hard for 45 minutes each time and after the second time, it's lessened, but continues . I must put a Scott towel in my mouth like a stopper on a champagne bottle. I think he should have sutured them. I do wonder if the infection in both teeth could have been healed by antibiotics and the healing of my gut. The dentist gave me antibiotics so I'm using it just in case some infection remains in tooth #15 and also cuz I hope it might kill whatever intestinal bug I picked up 16 months ago. Back to the CRP indicating inflammation: The doctor explained that if there's inflammation in my stomach, it would be everywhere in my body but now I'm thinking that maybe the inflammation began in my teeth and then went to my stomach and would be in my blood vessels unfortunately as well. THAT said, I really don't know where the inflammation from the infection began. I had gotten sick 16: months ago and that's unusual for me and after that was when my bowel movements changed and my stomach no longer had a great feeling. I feel spiritually pretty terrible now because I never had teeth removed and it's extremely upsetting for someone who brushes their teeth everyday and flosses as well, many times a day. I do think that when God planned the universe, humans got the short end of the stick and sharks, with their constant replacement of🦷🦷🦷 teeth, got the better deal. I'm serious😁
The last five years I’ve been on a carnivore diet. The health of my mouth has drastically increased, and I clean it far less. I do clean my teeth, but I don’t use mouthwash, and I don’t use toothpaste since changing my diet. My teeth have actually become harder my gums don’t bleed they’re much stronger than ever before and I brush way less.than I did as a kid
We can regrow real ,natural teeth from 1994 with amelogenin and bioactive film,and from 2009 with stem cell teeth,but thank you to dental lobbies and corrupted pol.,this is only a dream.
Great episode. I tried Ellie Phillips' system for about a month or so but have stopped due to tooth pain. I think the positive takeaways from it were the benefits of xylitol as well as having two separate brushes (I've decided to go back to electric brush but with 2 separate heads for day/night.) I will be looking into that electric flosser as it sounds good, as well as prebiotics.
Yes, and if you were older, you would remember when four-year-olds had their "vestigial organ" appendixes routinely removed. And later developed nonHodgkins lymphoma at 2.5 times the usual rate as a result. But by that time, the physicians had already added the patients' family funds to their estates, and no one could connect the dots any more.
Thermographs literally can show root canals that are draining straight down into the breast. Creating much inflammation within the breast. This over time can create many serious health consequences. And yes, breast cancer. Once the diseased tooth is removed, you can see through thermography, the breast clear up and inflammation disappears.
What an excellent podcast thank you yes dental is important and complicated especially if things so wrong even if you have done the right thing. It is also difficult if you get conflicting advice. Thank you so much for this informative and easy to understand podcast.
It’s important discussion with dentist who is not conservatively boxed within the health authority guidance. Nobody in dental community recommends the oral probiotics taken in different form? Why this is important for our gut, but full silence among dentists?
It’s the Wild Wild West in the probiotic world. No standards or conclusive double blind clinical studies. If you do not eat carbs & focus’s on a whole food diet, most microbiomes will improve & shift appropriately.
I Think the subject is very important but I would love if this kind of mediealderen/ science based info would be presented with 1) the conclusion as a short abstract - 2 ) and then go deeper into the research, methods and results and discussion
Dr. Burheene I had an infection in my gum around felt like an abscess used natural garlic as an alternative to antibiotics with warm salt water wash and the next day my gum and tooth were fine. What are your thoughts about this remedy!
I have two root canal repairs done in Australia, after 5 years both started some discoloration, at 6 years started getting horrible allergies (yes this may be coincidental) sinusitis and endless sneezing, at 10 years both root canal teeth were totally black, then 4 months ago one tooth broke in to pieces and with broken tooth came out some ? Crap - washed out my mouth and after another two days the other root canal tooth that was also black broke with a large price of the visible tooth gone. This was scary for me because I now live in west Africa so good treatment is not easy to find…. Anyway, I am (and again, it might be coincidental) I’m finally allergy free after years of mouth breathing and sneezing / runny noses… I feel good apart from not knowing how I can get the rest of the broken root canal teeth.. 😊
How to stop the recession is to create more jobs. Periodontal disease is a marker for metabolic syndrome, the root cause of which is malnutrition. I'm a carnivore lifestyle advocate and have reversed my type 2 diabetes and periodontitis.
Very Educational discussion, but it would have been even more helpful if you provided all those technical words and products names WRITTEN as well !!! Thanks!
Gosh, I’ve been doing nearly every single thing right for as long as I can remember. It works! I have perfect teeth and because I don’t trust dentists as a general rule (I have my reasons) I only go about once a decade for a cleaning and a check. The dentist is always impressed when I say I haven’t seen a dentist in about 10 years… might be more than that now. I’m overdue… Anyone know a good dentist in NJ?
This is best information Thank You so much for having Dr.Mark, I would love if you can refer me to a good dentist or if i can set an appt with Dr. Mark. 🙏
So Arithritol etc, gave me near heart attacks until I stopped taking it as a regular sweetener in my cofees and other foods. Stay the fuck away from Artithritol/Atrithriols etc. Thought I was going to die until I removed it.
Great conversation. He shouldn't have taken on the question about Dr Ellie, as he apparently has not reviewed her work in depth. He shot from the hip there.
Dr Ellie seems to only care to sell her products, she even suggested we ppl use two different toothbrushes, one for day and one for night, when was asked if disinfecting with hot water or hydrogen peroxide, she got upset and said ‘just follow what I said blah blah’… I don’t trust her, no flossing and use commercial oral rinse (s) always doesn’t make sense… ask question and do NOT blindly follow her
20 year's as an RDH and I mostly disagree with Dr. Ellie Phillips. She is leading a lot of people down the wrong road. She is not currently scientifically evidenced-based in her explanations. I'm not able to follow her "logic" either. 🤔
My husband is 60 and only brushes his teeth once a day in the morning and he has never had a filling or anything done to his teeth in his whole life , the dentist said he has amazing teeth , I wish I had his teeth 😳
The electrolyte brand with citric acid is still on Dr Burhenne’s website… and I’ve just bought in bulk following Dr B listing them. Any ideas on the new brand he is using?
I have a habit of reading ingredients on the food I'm going to Purchase And if there are too many ingredients that I can't pronounce don't know what they are put it back on the shelf and I am finding xylitol in almost all foods now Which makes me not want to trust it Especially if they have a synthetic one I definitely don't want that And how do you know if it's synthetic or the natural in the foods we're eating and if it's deadly to dogs why couldn't it be deadly to us at some point
My understanding about Xylitol, when dogs consume it, it causes them to have a very low blood glucose, and they can die from that. This is not the case for humans.
Will drinking carbonated water (aka sparkling water) have a negative effect on your oral microbiome? I know it's probably not the greatest for your enamel.
Funny he keeps emphasizing no mouth wash, but 'dry mouth' mouthwash uses xylitol to balance ph. I prefer it over xylitol gum cause it costs pennies in comparison. And gum isn't always convenient or socially acceptable.
Do you have a brand you like without alcohol ? I can't chew gum after having my wisdom teeth pulled, my gums in the aren't like they should be there and could cause socket issues.
I want to know why raw eggs have been demonised? I'm carnivore, my teeth are getting harder and no more jaw ache i've had for years after damage to it.
most dentists are crooks . I've been to over 30 different dentists in my life just to test their honesty. I have a close friend who takes care of my oral health and always gives me honest advice but he always insists that i get a second opinion just to see what happens. Only 1 in 30 gave me the correct diagnosis and the rest wanted to perform expensive unnecessary proceedures. Don't trust only one dentist,always get a second and 3rd opinion before you proceed .
I am in my mid seventies, and all my dental restorations are gold. I have a very heavy bite, which caused me to break a couple of teeth. Just had a three unit gold bridge made a the Dental School, to save money it cost $2414.00. Most of my crowns have lasted well over forty years. Will need to sleep with my head in a safe! lol
All very well, but who has the money to pay for all this and who wants to measure ones Ph, to brush and floss every time? To me, a lot of overkill for a not-obsessed non-dentist :-) but instructive tough and linked it to my dentist 😉
