Waterpik Ultra Professional Water Flosser, 5 Tips, Advanced Pressure Control System, 10 Settings, Dental Plaque Removal Tool, Black, WP-662UK, 2pin UK Bathroom Plug

Good quality, use it everyday. Great for getting under crowns and round implants.

Tricky at first but worth the time, effort and money as seeing is believing! Was very sceptical at first but even one use seems to prove this is worth using. You need enough space in your bathroom or you will not be able to use it and it works very well at also delivering mouthwash if you add this to the water tank before beginning your clean. My dentist has since said the results are amazing.

Apart from annoying price fluctuations, this is an excellent product that is exactly as described and super easy to use. It's worth the £69 paid. Don't expect to view your teeth in the mirror DURING the water flossing - you can enjoy the view AFTER using the water floss. Keep your mouth mostly closed to prevent water from spraying all over and look downwards slightly so that the water can trickle from your mouth into the sink/basin. While using the water floss, you can watch the food bits ejected and watch the water level in the reservoir to estimate how much time you have left before the water runs out to finish your dental cleaning. It can be shared at home (within & with hygiene limits), making it highly economical. Water floss cannot replace string floss but this is an excellent addition to one's daily dental routine: Electric Toothbrush + String Floss + Water Floss + Mouthwash You can skip some string floss sessions when you use the water floss at higher water speeds of 8-10, but should still floss at least once every 2 days for optimal dental hygiene. It's great using the water floss after every meal and before you head out of the house and have to wear a face mask (so you don't have to inhale the consequences of a dirty mouth). Start at the LOWEST setting. Gradually increase the speed and get accustomed to it, before finding the highest water speed setting that you can comfortably handle. Lower speeds below 5 are suited for massage and rinsing rather than proper cleaning. Water speed 8-9 seems like the best compromise between effectiveness and comfort. At maximum speed 10, there is quite a bit of spraying on your face and the surroundings and it's a bit overwhelming and slightly painful for some. If you have enough bathroom space & seek to purchase just 1 water flosser (for the time being at least) - I suggest purchasing this counter-top model rather than the portable/travel type which is generally less effective despite being quite bulky for a handheld device and costs around the same or more. If you don't have enough bathroom space - consider using this at your kitchen sink instead.

Ok, so this is my second Waterpik, the first was recommended to me by my dentist because I suffered from bleeding gums and regular, expensive and painful trips to the hygienist. After a few tries and getting used to the water pressure, no more issues with my gums. You notice straight away how effective it is, your mouth feels really clean and you can't help running your tongue around the edges as though you have just been to the dentist feeling! My old one packed in and I bought this because it had great reviews. With this being my 2nd Waterpick I immediately noticed some improvements:- 1. The lid is now hinged and no longer falls off when you are trying to refill the reservoir. 2. There is an on/off switch on the implement which is brilliant because that means you can stop the water flow which helps when you need to take a breather. 3. It is not as bulky as my last one and sits nicely in my bathroom unit. 4. The cord is slightly longer so no issues on it coming out, see pics above. This is much more effective than manual flossing because it reaches all the nooks and crannies that you cannot see. I have also introduced it to my 9yr old son who thinks this is a great water machine for now but please ensure the setting is very low at first because the water jet is very strong. As soon as you get used to it you can up the setting as you prefer. Unfortunately my Waterpik developed a fault after a few days and keeps switching itself off. I have contacted the seller and they are sending my a replacement which is great. Don't let this put you off buying a Waterpik, otherwise I wouldn't have asked for a replacement. I just wanted to give you an honest review.

Excellent quality. Adjustable water pressure. Really flosses teeth well.

Works well

Bought following hygienist recommendation but this product shows extremely bad quality of materials and underwhelming performance of functionality. Very noisy and way overpriced, this product as it is should not cost more than 20 pounds (at max!). There is no fancy or cutting edge technology in it that justifies the price label; a little motor and a piece of cheap plastic, that’s what it is. Even the design is outdated but Waterpik somehow keeps monetising with it. Returning it.

Only had this a few days (as a Deal of the Day) and I'm impressed by how much "stuff" it blasts out of the gaps in my ageing maw. The build quality feels cheap to me, very cheap. Creaking plastic, rattling motor and an unnecessarily stiff tube from main unit to flosser, the latter making things a bit more awkward to move around your mouth than necessary. The plastic feel and rattling doesn't inspire hope for its longevity, but if it last a year, I'll be both surprised and I'll update this brief review with positivity. In terms of usage, I find the default "middle" power setting to be best. I'd really avoid sandblasting on the highest setting! :-) So: 5 stars for doing the job it was intended to do; 3 stars for apparent build quality (although I may be maligning it unfairly). Edit: 5th May, 2020: It lasted more than a year, in fact it lasted 16 months. However it "died" last night. You plug it into the shaver socket and the two lights flicker like they are shorting out and that's it, it won't turn on. I stand by every point of my review above: it's great at removing stuff, but it is a cheap and nasty build quality. I've ordered another because I can't see myself without it now as part of my teeth cleaning regimen. Let's see how long the new one will last.
