I bought this product about a month ago when I got my braces. Having braces there are so many places that food can get caught in and I wanted to be absolutely sure that I wasn't missing anything, so I purchased the WaterPik. I am AMAZED at how much food comes out of my mouth. I love it and can not live without. I use this product every day to clean after I eat in the morning and night. I really miss it when I 'm not at home and just brush my teeth. It feels that my teeth are not as clean when I don't use it. I couldn't be happier.
I have been buying Waterpiks for over 30 years (I am a retired orthodontist). This one is by far the best. Others have had shorter lives..broken hoses, some breakage with parts costing more than a replacement..this one is great so far...
