Questions & Answers
Is water flosser good for you?
A water flosser can help remove food particles from your teeth and might help reduce bleeding and gum disease — but it isn’t generally considered a substitute for brushing and flossing. It doesn’t generally remove visible film and plaque on your teeth, but can aid in reduction of bacteria even below the gumline.
What is the benefit of using a Waterpik?
Pros. Using a Waterpik can be especially helpful for getting into hard-to-reach areas of the mouth, tightly spaced teeth, and periodontal pockets that may be caused by early gum disease. They can also help to keep breath fresher, longer, which is an added plus.
Can Water flosser damage your teeth or gums?
No. Water flossers may actually damage your gums less than floss. They do not put as much pressure on the gums as string floss.
Can Water flosser remove tartar?
Water flossers are great for tartar removal, as well as eliminating food particles, plaque, and bacteria stuck in those hard-to-reach areas. By regularly rinsing such often-overlooked spots, you decrease the risk of contracting gingivitis or other gum-related infections.Nov 30, 2020
