I have always used an electric toothbrush, dental floss and mouthwash to clean my teeth until recently when I purchased the Waterpik. I had always heard about Waterpik; however I never thought I needed one until my dentist recommended that I get one. After using the Waterpik, I will never clean my teeth again with only an electric toothbrush and floss. The Waterpik reaches everywhere you want easily; the water pressure is adjustable; it is compact; easily fits in the bathroom; there are many different heads to use for all your dental hygiene needs; and it gets into all the nooks and crannies massaging as it cleans your teeth and gums. It leaves your whole mouth feeling clean, fresh, and really great. As an older woman, I had noticed that my gums had started to recede, and I like that the Waterpik allows me to really clean in between my teeth much better than floss. I liked the product so much; I went out and also bought the travel version so that I can enjoy the same great results that I get at home when I am traveling. I really love this product and highly recommend it to anyone who seriously cares about oral hygiene.
