Does a waterpik work better than flossing? They claim to be 93% more effective than flossing, what do you think?
 
Years ago I used a waterpik. My gums started to have problems. When I visited the dentist, the dentist told me that a waterpik does ok in massaging your gums but didn't do the job between the gums nearly as well as flossing.

Once I gave up the waterpik and just flossed, my gum problems went away.

I would write the problem that I had with my gums but it is the type of thing that my cause a custom title.:biggrin:
 
I had one a few years ago and really liked it. It really got rid of things that flossing didn't and the whole benefit to your gums thing.

I got lazy and it was taking up too much room on my bathroom sink, so I ditched it. Might bring it back now that I stumbled upon this thread.
