All protocols

Choose toothpaste that does not foam or burn; avoid sodium lauryl sulfate and similar foaming agents because they can disrupt oral mucosa and contribute to oral ulceration/canker sores.

Avoid toothpastes or products with strong essential oils because they can be highly antimicrobial and may damage beneficial oral bacteria.

Reduce sticky, dried, fermentable starchy foods that adhere to teeth and feed cavity-causing bacteria, such as crackers, toast, chips, and similar snack foods.

Prioritize foods that support healthy oral bacteria over foods that feed pathogenic bacteria; examples given include prebiotic fiber, broccoli, and a varied colorful whole-food diet ('eat the rainbow').

Consume a wide variety of vegetables as part of a clean whole-food diet; cruciferous vegetables were also specifically noted as supporting detox pathways and helping bind some microplastics.

Include foods such as nuts, seeds, olives, and pickles as part of a whole-food diet supportive of oral health.

After antibiotics, take a high-quality probiotic; oral probiotics can also be used specifically to target mouth bacteria. She generally recommends a probiotic pill because it is hard to get enough from foods, especially in kids.

Avoid chronic habitual use of strong mouthwashes, including chlorhexidine, because they can damage nitrate-reducing bacteria important for nitric oxide production and potentially raise blood pressure/cardiovascular risk.

Occasional use is fine, but avoid habitual use of gum, mints, and strong breath products because they may be damaging over time.

Consume a mineral-rich diet and optimize mineral intake to support saliva and oral health; many people are mineral deficient.

Mentioned as a commonly deficient fat-soluble vitamin relevant to oral health; test rather than guess, and supplement if needed.

If possible, test the oral microbiome/saliva to identify pathogens and optimize health; when choosing a test, look for one using shotgun metagenomics rather than only limited PCR panels.

Chew and masticate real foods thoroughly rather than relying on soft, mushy, slurped foods; chewing supports facial development and airway health.

Start functional therapies/retainers as young as 3 or 4 years old to expand the face/palate, improve airway, and allow teeth to come in straight.

If mouth breathing is present, get evaluated by an airway-focused dentist and potentially an ENT/otolaryngologist to identify the cause.

Before mouth taping, first confirm you can breathe through your nose for three minutes without panicking by taping the lips or holding water in the mouth and timing it. If safe, start gradually: 5 minutes while doing a task, then 30 minutes watching a show, then 2 hours for a movie, then overnight. Open-center tape may feel less invasive and still allow off-gassing.

Look up and pucker strongly as if kissing the sky for 15 seconds per side, a couple times per day or whenever remembered, to strengthen internal neck muscles and support nasal breathing.

Use xylitol gum after exposure to snack foods or fermentable carbohydrates; it can inhibit bacterial proliferation, reduce strep mutans, loosen food, and increase salivary flow.

If using gum, chew it for a couple of minutes and throw it out rather than chewing for extended periods; avoid overdoing mastic gum because it can aggravate TMJ/temporomandibular dysfunction and jaw pain.

Breastfeeding may support facial development and airway health. If breastfeeding is not possible, there are other options to address these concerns.

For infants and young children, consider more real foods rather than only blended foods, while preparing foods safely to avoid choking hazards.

Use ozone as an antimicrobial/antiviral/antifungal alternative to antibiotics in dental contexts; she uses gas, water, or ozonated oils in practice.

Use organic raw coconut oil for oil pulling: put a spoonful in the mouth, let it melt, swish, then spit into the trash.

Use caution or avoid nicotine pouches because prolonged contact may contribute to leukoplakia, bone loss, gum recession, and decay; if used, get checked regularly by a dentist.

If using bleaching agents, do not overdo them because excessive bleaching can damage teeth, harm the pulp/nerve, and in extreme cases lead to abscesses or root canals.

Include healthy fats as part of an oral-health-supportive whole-food diet after eliminating processed foods.

If someone wants fluoride, she frames topical fluoride toothpaste as the personal-choice route rather than water fluoridation.

Useful especially with age-related gum pockets, sensory aversion, or as an adjunct/alternative to string floss; she alternates nights between flossing and water flossing.

Recommended especially for flossing children's teeth once molars are touching, and also acceptable for adults; angle the floss pick rather than only moving straight up and down.

Begin flossing as soon as any teeth touch; often by around age 2.5 the molars are touching and should be flossed.
