For patients who find traditional flossing difficult or lack the manual dexterity required, the Waterpik® Water Flosser provides the solution.

The Cordless Advanced removes up to 99.9% of plaque from treated areas and is up to 50% more effective for improving gum health compared to string floss.[i] This model comes with four tips, three pressure settings, 360otip rotation, a travel bag, global voltage and a 2-year warranty.

The Cordless Advanced also features a magnetic four-hour rapid charging system, ultra-quiet operation and waterproof design.

Studies support their efficacy over traditional methods of interdental cleaning: one study found that cleaning interproximal regions with a Water Flosser ‘achieved more effective removal of interproximal biofilm’ compared to a sonic toothbrush.[ii] The Waterpik® Water Flosser is also twice as effective as strong floss for reducing gingival bleeding.[iii] To discover more about the Waterpik range visit the website today!
