Bought this after my Dentist recommended it since I have a difficult time flossing between my teeth. Recently got a bridge, the space between the bridge and teeth is so tight the floss shreds. The Waterpik works great and is easy to use. The higher settings are strong. I haven't had any problems with the pause button sticking yet. I wish I bought one years ago.
I have had a couple of problems with the pressure when trying to use one of the attachments which it comes with - I tried cleaning it with hot water and this seemed to work but I don't think I should have had this problem I've only had it around 6 months.
Had a Waterpik in the 60's - was I a pioneer? I can therefore attest that the Waterpik has come a long, long way and I'm still getting "acquainted." I'm just beginning to experience its beneficial possibilities, and I definitely envision a positive Waterpik future! So glad my dentist recommended, as I didn't even know it was still in existence.
Great dental checkup. The hygenist was pleased with my dental health and when she checked my gumline numbers she said they were those of an 18yr old. ( I'm 77). I have used a waterpick for years. This is my second one and the design is better than ever.
