How to Water Floss / Pick
Setup
- warm water
- lean over the sink and keep your lips mostly closed to reduce splashing
- its ok for it to be a bit messy
Start
- use it before brushing if you want to flush debris out first
- start with lower pressure and gradually increase the pressure until comfortable
Technique
- aim at the gum line
- go tooth to tooth and pause briefly instead of sweeping too fast
- slow down more for the back teeth
Aftercare
- if gums bleed at first, keep the pressure gentle and see if it improves over several days
- clean the device regularly, especially the tip and reservoir
