Skipping Dental Appointments

Dr. Ellie does not unilaterally advise against going to the dentist. Depending on your specific oral health concern, she recommends getting an evaluation from your dentist to determine if there are any concerns. Also, it can provide a baseline to compare to your next appointment if you choose to return to the dentist. Or if you are comfortable with the status of your oral health, you could postpone your dental appointment and implement Dr. Ellie's strategies before returning for an evaluation.

Also, if you're looking for a preventative-minded dentist, Dr. Ellie recommends finding a dentist that is pro-xylitol for oral health. Dr. Ellie often encourages people to look for a Biomimetic Dentist, which you can search for through the following link: https://www.aobmd.org/dentists/?type=dentists&sort=relevance.
