I changed from using string floss to Water Flosser when I've worn braces. It's perfect for braces and easy to use. Also, it removes plaque effectively. Love it when the first time I use and keep using it. Highly recommend!!!
My dental hygienist badgered me into using a waterpik, so I finally relented because I am developing gum disease. I hate regular flossing because my teeth are so close. I discovered that I loved the water flossing and now do it more than once a day. It is so easy and refreshing. My only regret is that I didn't buy the model that also included an electric toothbrush because I have heard they are also good for your gums.
I love it. I've been using it now for a month and I can feel great improvement in my gums. I'm surprised that dental professionals are not recommending this product more.
