With my mouth closed, I still found it messy to use. I only used it 3 times and can’t tell how well it worked.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We are sorry that you find the WP-450 difficult to use. Perhaps viewing our how-to video will help. It does have some great tips on how to prevent a mess. You can view it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOazTcn6uG0
I bought the Waterpik WP-450 water flosser a month ago and I find it works extremely well an is simple to use. Especially like the high an low pressure settings an how easy it is to fill with water.
I’ve tried to use this at the sink, but if you don’t keep you mouth closed, water goes everywhere. Best to use in the shower.

The WP-450 is not completely waterproof. We do not recommended using it in the shower under running water. Perhaps our how-to video would be helpful. Although it is not your exact model, the technique still applies. You can view it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOazTcn6uG0
I bought this a month ago and enjoy using the item. I just wish there were slower speeds. You have the make sure that the tip is in your mouth before turning it on or you will have water all over the place.
Once I learned not to spray the walls, my dentist and I agree that the product is helping me do a fine job of cleaning the extensive implant work I had done.
This has helped me increase my oral hygiene. I hate flossing so this makes it easier to take care of my gums and teeth. With two bridges I'm not as worried about getting up on the gum line because of the added head. I have put a mirror in the Tub/Shower because it's easier to catch all the water and so I can make sure I get all my teeth. I have enjoyed using it ever time.
Dentist recommended - so I got it and use it twice a day. At first I thought it wasn’t doing much because I couldn’t feel it on my gums. Sprayed it on my hands - wow it has force. Easy to fill and light to hold.
