Waterpik Cordless Plus Water Flosser (UK 3-Pin Plug) - White Edition

Product Information

During a consultation with a hygienist or your dentist, the most common advice given is to brush twice a day and floss your teeth. This advice has been proven statistically and is why dental professionals reinforce it at every appointment. Bought this and a travel one as have been having problems with my gums. If you are torn between the two I would definitely recommend getting the full size version. The two are not really comparable. Water tank in full size only needs filling once and you can change the pressure from 1 to 10. 5 is enough for me at the moment.” Waterpik is the only brand clinically proven to be more effective than traditional dental floss or air floss for reducing plaque and gingivitis. And the Orthodontic Tip combined with the Water Flosser is clinically proven to be up to 3X as effective as dental floss for removing plaque around braces and other orthodontic appliances. The water tank holds enough water for 60 seconds of flossing and it inverts to sit on top of the unit to save space when travelling or in storage. The Waterpik flosser on this unit has 10 pressure settings delivering 10-100 PSI of pressure, but there is no timer or massage mode. In this sense, it's like the basic Waterpik Ultra WP120 but with a toothbrush included. The toothbrush has three modes: Clean, Whiten and Massage. It delivers up to 31,000 strokes per minute; not that powerful compared to most other sonic toothbrushes which deliver in the range of 40,000 to 60,000.

With a rechargeable battery and compact design, this portable oral irrigator is a great solution if you prefer the convenience of a cordless electric Water Flosser. It cleans deep between teeth and below the gumline where traditional brushing and flossing can't reach, utilising a unique combination of water pressure and pulsations. It also massages and stimulates gums for enhanced circulation.Water flossers can be an additional aid, over and above interdental cleaning, and some patients like using these.' Countertop: A countertop water flosser has a large reservoir base that holds enough water for repeated uses, which means less frequent re-filling. Countertop models may also be more powerful than a cordless water flosser, and you never have to worry about a low battery. Besides a few cosmetic differences, the two are identical. They both hold the same amount of water, they both floss at the same pressure, they both feel the same in the hand. There was a learning curve to overcome and at first we found water running down our arm as we got used to the correct angle to hold the Cordless Plus. But within a week we had perfected our technique and this was no longer a problem.
