Is water-flossing as effective as regular flossing?
Yes if not more effective. We now know through clinical studies that using a waterpik water flosser is at least as effective as flossing if not more so. In my own practice we have been recommending the Aquarious Waterpik water flosser for the last several years. My hygienist and I personally have seen remarkable results from using it, especially in conjunction with an electric toothbrush, like Oral B. We also have seen much better compliance from our patients, than regular flossing. READ MORE
