How to use a Water Flosser? #dentistexplains

Save for later ✅ Simple steps to use a water flosser (Without making a mess):

1️⃣ Fill the reservoir with warm water

2️⃣Select the right tip. 🔹Choose the tip that works best for you

3️⃣ Lean over the sink and place the tip in your mouth 👄
(Leaning will prevent water splash 💦 on your countertop)

4️⃣ Turn on the water flosser
🔹Close your lips to prevent splashing➡️ Let the water flow from your mouth to your sink

5️⃣ Aim the tip at your gum line.
🔹Go tooth by tooth to ensure you get everything. Pause between teeth 🦷 for a second or two

6️⃣ Empty the reservoir once you’re done.

👩🏻‍⚕️Extra tips:

1️⃣ Start with a low pressure setting ( Otherwise, it might hurt!) Slowly you can increase the pressure depending on your preference

2️⃣ Don’t look up in the mirror🪞
🔹Water flossing is all depending on what it feels like, not what you see in the mirror.
(otherwise you’ll be cleaning up a huge mess later!)

3️⃣ Before you start, place the tip in your mouth.
🔹You don’t want the water, to poke your eye or hurt you.

Would definitely recommend you to use a water flosser to up your oral hygiene routine🦷👍🏼
