Although your dentist may advise you to regularly use an electric toothbrush and a water flosser for your daily oral sanitation, you should stay away from them for a few days after getting dental implants because they can easily damage the surgical site.
Hello there. No, waterpick water floss does not damage the implant. It is actually indicated to clean it. Doing what is right, it is always the right thing to do.
If your implant is fully healed and the water flosser is used at an appropriate setting, it should be fine. Ask your dentist. Zygomatic implants should not be flossed
