We all brush our teeth, but very few of us clean between our teeth. If you don’t like to floss, you’re not alone. Statistics show that only about 12 percent of us floss daily.

If you struggle with flossing, there is a high-tech solution: An oral irrigator — a device that flushes away food particles between your teeth with a jet stream of pulsating water.

Top 4 reasons you should use an Oral Irrigator every day

BLAST AWAY PLAQUE
The spaces between our teeth are the perfect place for plaque accumulation—especially toward the back of our mouths between molars and premolars–where it’s more difficult to reach with a toothbrush. Irrigating is the most effective way to seek out and blast away hidden bacteria.

HEALING YOUR BODY FROM THE INSIDE OUT
An estimated 75 percent of adults have some degree of gum disease, which may actually raise the risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes. While the pulsating stream of water shooting from the irrigator tip is washing away debris, it is also massaging your gums, which makes them more robust and healthy.

PROMOTES FRESH BREATH
Cosmetic dental work looks fantastic but crowns, bridges and braces often harbor debris that is inaccessible to even the finest toothbrush or floss. This debris causes bad breath as pockets of bacteria form. Because irrigators reach
areas a toothbrush can’t, they are ideal for cleaning around crowns, bridgework, implants and braces.

MAKE YOUR HYGIENIST HAPPY
Nobody likes to sit in a dental chair with their mouth wide open. Daily irrigation is can definitely cut back the length of time you’re stuck in the hygienist’s chair!

IN CLOSING
Adding Oral Irrigation to your dental routine ensures you are optimizing your
dental home care routine. The key word here is “routine.” Following an office visit and
a lecture from your dental professional, chances are you’ll floss and irrigate — for
a day or two. But most of us soon fall into the same old old habits. Make irrigating a
routine. You’ll love the way it makes your mouth feel.

*NOTE: Oral irrigation is only one component of a complete dental home care program. Patients are also recommended to perform a thorough tooth brushing, tongue scraping, and rinse with Oxyfresh Antimicrobial Mouthrinse, along with maintaining regular dental check-ups.
