Oral Irrigators or waterpik just like our Portable waterpik rely on either pressured water or mouthwash to remove plaque from between the teeth and around the gums. They have been proven to reduce the overall amount of bacteria that increases your risk for developing gum disease. Our portable waterpik Removes 99% more plaque than brushing alone, especially when used in conjunction with brushing and flossing. It’s is much less abrasive, meaning that it’s less likely to cause irritation or bleeding. For those who have braces, they are three times more effective than dental floss for cleaning around braces.
