Fantastic Product! Works great! February 27, 2005 donny (Maryland United States) 97 out of 105 found this review helpful
For me this was exactly what I was looking for. Dentist says I need to use a waterpik, and I hated having the bulky unit with the water well on my countertop. This is a little bigger than my rechargable toothbrush. Definitely enough power, and enough water to do the job. I can do my entire mouth on one fill-up of water. I have had it for over two weeks now, and only recharged once.
Dental Hygienist February 3, 2008 A. Roberts 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
As a dental Hygienist I highly recommend this product and have seen some amazing reductions in patient's bleeding gums (bleeding=disease/infection). It is great for people with periodontal disease and gingivitis (over 90% of us have some-even professionals), as well as people who have large hands and people who have braces. I have even sold the product out of several offices because I love it so much. Here are some things to note.
1) It will take a little bit to get used to. I warn my patient's that they may get water in their eyes the first few times. The resevoir is smaller and will need to be refilled.
2) It is very convenient. When you see this in your shower you are more likely to use it daily and make it a habit. You may have to recharge it every week or so when it runs down. Also, before you use it the first time fully charge it overnight.
3) You should keep the unit away from the running water when not in use. I have had two units and never had one corrode. You need to make sure the flap where you charge it is closed fully. Just use common sense...turn the charging portal away from the water when you refill, etc. I refill right in my shower.
4) The first one I had lasted a year and a half. These things do not last forever, but for the price they are so worth it. Most people pay more for coffee a month. Is your health worth that? Also Waterpik invented the machines and are very good about replacing any defective item. Every once in awhile you get a dud battery, I don't care what kind of product it is. Call them and they will replace it.
For all of you who don't know it.....we have a saying in dentistry that you only have to floss the ones you want to keep. Brushing alone will not cut it. If you do not clean under your gums you will have infection (bleeding) and bone loss around your teeth. The infection gets worse and deeper and will travel into your bloodstream. If the infection gets into your bloodstream it effects your whole body.
If you have deeper pockets (probing depths) that measure 4 and above, even if you are flossing you may not be cleaning to the base of the pocket where the really nasty bacteria is hiding out. This will get where your floss will not. It does not replace floss and I tell my patient's to use them together. If you don't know what your readings are ask your Dental Hygienist. They should be checking your pockets every visit and recording them once a year. You should see your hygienist 2-4 times a year.
Periodontal disease has been linked to Heart disease, Stroke, Diabetes, Alzheimer's, Pre-term low birthweight babies, Prostate Cancer....the list goes on. If your body is constantly fighting an infection in your mouth your immune system cannot do it's job if you get a cold, a cut....you name it.
I am getting off my soap box. I love this product. I was skeptical at first but got deperate with a few hopeless patient's and saw amazing results...and started using it myself. Also, it will not remove hard deposits if you haven't been cleaned recently, you have to have a clean mouth to begin with.
It is like anything else....you have to use it daily to see results. I use it (even before I got braces). I have my parent's using one because I believe in the product. My dad has the big countertop model and loves it...though it costs more. I have been using my second unit for over a year now. I buy them for my friends and they love them. I would not spend money on them if they didn't work.
Good luck and good health! Hope this info helped some people.
Finnally a Waterpik that I actually use! February 24, 2004 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
I have been needing to use a Waterpik, but do not like things on my counter, and am always in a hurry. With this new rechargeable, I can keep it in my shower (it is waterproof) and use it when I shower, adding almost no time to my daily routine. It cleans just as well as the larger Waterpiks, and fits into your hand like a power toothbrush. I just need to fill it from the showerhead twice to get a complete cleaning. This is a great product, and a great step forward for a Waterpik. I only need to recharge it about once a month.
battery holds up fine September 18, 2005 J. Rogers (Ohio) 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
I have had no problem with the battery and I have had the unit for well over a year. In fact I am surprised sometimes that the battery lasts as long as it does between having to be recharged. It is very easy to fill up the unit, and it sits on my counter always ready to go. I feel no need to have to hide it anywhere. The only problem is that there is no adjustment for the pressure. Sometimes it will fluctuate a little due to the angle of the unit. But that does not present to much of a problem and I am well pleased with my water jet.
Nice strong jet action June 26, 2007 Frank Petro (Cleveland, OH) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Dependable machine - great for cleaning food between teeth and into pockets of gum line. This is my second one. First one lasted about 4 years before it suddenly gave out.
