Use the water flosser properly

2024-05-29

1.Selective nozzle

Standard Jet Tip (nothing on it)

(Suitable for people with good gum and periodontal condition)

 

Periodontal tip (silicone on top)

(Soft impact force, suitable for periodontitis patients, can play the role of massage gums)

 

Orthodontic Tip (with small bristles on it)

(There are soft bristles on the nozzle, which is friendly to people with orthodontic braces, and can wash around the bracket while brushing)

 

The nozzle needs to be replaced regularly, at least once every 3 months, and it is easy to accumulate bacteria after a long time of use, which has an impact on our oral health maintenance

 

2. Add warm water to the tank

Water flosser is usually recommended to be filled with warm water

The temperature of the human body is about 37°C, which helps relieve the discomfort of the mouth, can effectively clean up plaque and food debris, and will not stimulate the gums and mouth damage due to excessive or cold water temperature.

Suggestion: Pay attention to waterproof safety when buying a water flosser, there is no waterproof design, optional waterproof grade IPX7 or IPX8 water flosser.

 

3.Choose the model that works for you

Novices, orthodontics, sensitive teeth

Choose the low end? Or gentle mode? (Novice direct high-grade easy gingival bleeding?)

Try it for a week and then slowly increase the gear.

The pulsating water from the water flosser is actually a massage

It promotes blood circulation to the gums

Enhance the resistance of local gums

It also eliminates bad breath in the mouth.

 

4.Master the correct way to rinse teeth

Place the tip in the gum line to be flushed

The tip is perpendicular between the teeth

Gently close your lips, M or W, for 3 seconds at a time

Clean after meals every day for 1-3 minutes each time

 

5.It is recommended that the water tank be cleaned regularly every week

If the water in the tank is not used up, be sure to clear the remaining water in the tank to avoid the formation of scale.

The water tank should be drained and placed in a cool and dry place in time to avoid breeding bacteria and affecting oral health.600x450.png
