WATER FLOSS

 Water Floss

 It is a device which uses a stream of high-pressure pulsating water intended to remove dental plaque and food debris between teeth and below the gum line.The device may also provide easier cleaning for patients with braces and crown.Therefore, water floss became a key part of the required home care aid especially for patients with gum disease.

Other names include Water pick,Dental water jet,Oral irrigator


A water flosser will not replace your tooth brush or traditional flossing. You still need to brush your teeth twice a day, but you can use the water flosser before or after.

Fill your water flosser's reservoir with lukewarm water, then put the flosser tip in your mouth. Lean over the sink to avoid a mess and stand in front of the mirror for initial usage.Turn it on and start to use. Hold the handle at a 90-degree angle to your teeth and spray. Water comes out in steady pulses, cleaning between your teeth. Focus on the top of your teeth, the gum line, spaces between each tooth and back of your tooth too. The process should take about 2 minutes. Empty any extra water from the reservoir to avoid bacterial growth.



How It Works??

Like regular flossing, water flossing removes food stuck between your teeth and the bacteria lingering there before it hardens into plaque. Water floss is very useful in small spaces where your toothbrush cant be used. Water flossing can also help to reduce gum disease and bleeding.
