I would not have purchased this product had I known the way it actually operated. I use it (because I paid so much for it) along with traditional string floss. I noticed that the food does not dislodge from the teeth properly. sorry I purchased it. however, I love the sonicare toothbrush.
To really rate this product I will have to see what my oral hygienist thinks when I go for my next appointment. I have two bridges and it is important to keep the space under them clean. I think it takes as much time to use the Airfloss as to use regular floss. I have actually been alternating between the Airfloss and regular flossing. Hard to know if it does a better job or not. I kind of like it - it does feel clean after use, but there is no way that I can know whether it works better than floss. Actually it came with a Sonicare brush I purchased. I don't think I would have paid the regular price for it, at least not without some conclusive data that it is superior to regular flossing.....
I have undergone orthodontic treatment twice and I still have my retainers on, so flossing is difficult and time consuming for me.
The Sonicare device makes it much easier, so I do it every day, sometimes twice a day, just because it's easy. I reccommend the product for people with a similar condition to mine.
There's room for improvement though.
Pros: battery life a charge can last a week, design
Cons: sometimes the operation of the device breaks up, only 1 nozzle inc (at least 2 needed in any home), will cause a mess esp in the beginning
This is my second Sonic Air Flosser. I prefer the first air flosser's "tip", The new tip cannot be directed as well; and sometimes requires 2 or 3 attempts to dislodge a piece of food. The earlier, more focused tip seemed to do a better job of dislodging small food particles!
I like the product but the 1st one stopped working after 2 months. Phillips was not able to replace it because the exact item was out of stock. Luckily the store I purchased it from exchanged the broken item with one they had on their shelf
Easy to use Airflosser which makes flossing a breeze! Leaves my teeth feeling great! I use some mouthwash in my Airflosser and it really helps my mouth feel clean!
