I am meticulous in flossing and brushing and with the water pic flosser I feel even cleaner than normal. I like to put a little mint listerine in the water and it leaves me feeling fresh and clean and I can what it removes when I spit it out in the sink. I had one of these years ago and it got lost in one of my moves and now I realize how much I missed it. I bought this after I broke a tooth on a biscotti and had to have it removed and I wanted to keep it all clean while I am waiting for the bone and gums to heal before having my dentist put in an implant.
I purchased the waterpick for my 13 year old grandson. He just had braces placed and I wanted him to be able to keep his teeth clean. He has done well. Check up revealed that he is doing a good job and i am thankful.
I've used the waterpik about four weeks. Love it! I feel like I've just come from the dentist each morning and evening that I use it. I was never a good flossed. Am buying one for each of my children and their families for Christmas.
