Something between my teeth – Waterpik Water Flosser

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Waterpik.

Confession: I got my first cavity this past year. Beyond being disappointed at the end of a good run, I was especially dismayed to learn it was decay I might have prevented.

If only I had FLOSSED!

Everyone’s big on brushing, and that is a good habit. But flossing is the best way to get plaque out from between your teeth. Which is exactly where my cavity was – between two teeth. And I’d kind of slacked off on my flossing routines in the past few years.

The truth is, flossing with thread is kind of a pain. I do it, but I also put it off. I’m seriously still kicking myself about this.
 But the past few weeks, I’ve had the Waterpik Aquarious Professional Water Flosser! Using the Waterpik water flosser made me feel a little bit like I was at the dentist (which I love) getting a professional cleaning (which I love!).

The Waterpik was easy to setup and use, although I had a few days learning curve figuring out how to keep water from going all over (tip: close your mouth mostly around the pik head! And remember to turn the water OFF before removing from your mouth! haha!).

My favorite feature is how you can adjust the pressure to get the ultimate clean. I also like that there’s no tangled string to throw out when you’re done.

After using the Waterpik, my teeth had that super-clean fresh feeling just like when I leave the dentist – I love that! The Waterpik Aquarious is clinically proven to remove 99.9% of plaque in 3 seconds, which is 50% better than string floss!

Get the whole family healthier with the Waterpik water flosser

The Waterpik is fun to use, and I’m starting to show the kids how to clean their teeth with it too, so they can learn the importance of daily flossing for their dental health – gotta start them early if they are going to beat their mama out in the “longest run without a cavity” department!

Because the Waterpik Aquarious Professional comes with 7 pik heads, three of which are the classic Jet, you can use the same machine for different family members (just remember which color pik base each one has!).
So, my question is – are you and your family flossing enough? Could the Waterpik make flossing more of a regular routine for your family?
