should you use toothpaste? #shorts

More info about anti-cavity toothpaste:

Fluoride is currently the only ingredient approved by the American Dental Association to aid in the prevention of cavities and enamel remineralization. Fluoride is NOT toxic in small amounts and there is no evidence to say otherwise. The toxicity is in the dose. If you were to eat a whole tube of toothpaste in one sitting, then yes, it can hurt your stomach. But using fluoride toothpaste AS DIRECTED poses no threat to your health.

Most of the time toothpaste is needed. There is one reason he doesn’t use toothpaste….he keeps his bad bacteria numbers very low. If you don’t have a bacteria issue (most people do) then plaque doesn’t form. He does not need toothpaste and uses brushing to clean food debris off of his teeth.

Now it might be because of my genetic make up, but I am in my 60s and from my early teens to now I brush after almost every meal floss at least once a day. I even keep a toothbrush, toothpaste and water in car so I can brush on the road. I go to my dentist twice a year for a cleaning and check up and she likes to show off my mouth and teeth to new staff. I've read enough on the subject to know that if you keep your teeth, gums and mouth healthy, a whole Lotta other good health follows

There needs to be some regulation on medical professional or any kind of professional coming online and saying suggestive stuff that can lead people to not take care of their health or safety properly. Just because someone else smokes and hasn't yet been diagnosed with cancer, doesn't mean they aren't at extra risk compared to a non smoker.

I'm not cavity prone, and I rarely use commercial toothpaste. I get painful ulcers in my mouth due to an autoimmune disease, and toothpaste irritates them. I'd prefer toothpaste, but can't find anything that works for me.

I would be in dentures in a year if I didn’t use toothpaste 😂

You should do a video on xylitol and cavity prevention.

Please suggest some toothpaste to remove bad breath

Used this for years. Hydrogen peroxide keeps gums and teeth heathy and all the bad bacteria and cavities away just make sure its mixed with water correctly and not swallowed and a soft toothbrush.

Ive found dentists to be some of the most untrustworthy people.

I went to a dentist to have a filling replaced after it came loose. After he did an exam, he told me I needed 14 fillings and a crown....that would total over $10, 000 in dental work.

I didnt believe him and got a second opinion from a small local dentist and he was appauld. I had ZERO cavities and only needed the filling replaced.

There are many dentists who will use their position of authority to drill into your mouth when you dont need it just to make quick and easy $$ off you.

Worst part is, how would you ever know?

He can get away with/o using toothpaste because he lives in Costa Rica an eats a diet that does not include grains/junk food, as he is heavily influenced by African hunter gathers that he visited. There are pictures of elderly hunter gatherer people that have perfect white teeth, even though they don’t brush their teeth. However, it’s hard for someone living in the US, particularly, to eat like this.

You're too kind towards that man! Being a doctor and saying "I do this, not that", he must understand there will be people who will do that too, he doesn't even need to openly tell them to try it.

This dude loves to engage in clickbait and make stuff controversial

Is it true fluoride affects your pineal glad? And causes neurological symptoms?

[laurenschenck]

Also a doctor has the salary to pay for all that dental care 👀

This guy and his natural fiber brush and plain water. Talking with a smile filled with teeth so white it's professionally done

I'm actually allergic to fluoride (it sucks). Are there any good toothpaste recommendations that still assist with cavity prevention?

[laurenschenck]

I don’t believe that stuff and i don’t trust it neither ❤😊❤❤

[jillroberto]

I disagree on this one. You do not "need" toothpaste. It's the mechanical action of removing biofilm that "helps" prevent decay, along with the acidity of the mouth. If toothpaste with fluoride truly kept cavities from developing, then few would have decay based on this statement. Is there a place for fluoride? Maybe. However there are definitely other options.

There’s loads of new research on dental care. I had a different approach to dentist which was the holistic way. This dentist female just advising to spend your money on treatments stead of healing yourself the natural way. Yes it’s good to get regular check ups but we are humans that can heal things easily. You all should research on flouride toothpaste. You be shocked what you find out!
