Momma Told Me: Make sure you floss!
Flossing. Studies show less than 2 out of 5 Americans floss once a week,
let alone the orthodontist recommended 3-4. And with technology inching
it's way into every aspect of the American consumer's life it's no
wonder we consider traditional floss archaic and tedious. The truth of
the matter is, so few people even know how to floss correctly that when
they do they are often left with sore, bleeding, gums. Not a very big
motivation to pick up the task regularly, right? Personally, I've always
had teeth that were grouped very close together towards the bottom, but
gaped near the gums. I can't eat any form of protein without having to
pick leftovers from between them, and this is typically quite painful. I
cringe whenever a toothpick is required, and begrudgingly pick up the
floss.

If you're one of the millions of US Adults who are convinced you'll be
fine 'just brushing' for the rest of you're life, you're likely in for a
harsh wake up call. Studies show those who don't care for their gums
regularly are up to 10 times more likely to develop serious gum diseases
such as gingivitis and even the decay of critical tooth roots (we're
talking about your teeth falling out!) And while, by now, you're likely
starting to panic, or pointing to a disclaimer on your usual mouthwash
bottle- don't. While rinses and washes are great for killing bacteria,
they do not remove the particles stuck deep between teeth and at the
gums. These hidden particles can breed new bacteria, cause discomfort,
and even migrate beneath gums. But all hope is not lost because the
ingenious people at
Toilet Tree have, yet again, found a way to make your daily routine easier and more enjoyable.
As someone who was recently 'caught' not flossing at her yearly dental checkup, Toilet Tree's
Oral Irrigator
system is the latest product to innovate my healthcare at home. With a retail value just under $40, this all in one
system is almost everything you need to keep your gums sparkling, er,
squeaking? It's entirely rechargeable and even comes with two heads for multiple users. This bad boy
delivers 1700 pulses per minute, near 40-80 psi. This extremely powerful
stream of constant water helps blast away the plaque and debris which
collects between teeth and at the gums. Included with 2 easy to change
heads, for varied pressure/flow, the Oral Irrigator is easy to operate
with a two button system that offers three levels of intensity. The
removable water reservoir slides off simply for a detailed pour and fill
(or cleaning), or the user may quickly add water via the pour spout at
the top of the unit.


Set up is a breeze, with a waterproof build that houses a long capacity charge that often lasts 4-5 days of shared use before requiring a new charge. I must say the device is a little intimidating at first, and very
reminiscent of my last dental visit, but is nothing to be afraid of.
Like a dummy, I had a space cadet moment initially and, I pressed the
start button expecting a lackluster jet of water. Not only is the stream
powerful, but it is constant in the initial mode! In fact, I learned a very efficient way
to discipline the cat, as the jet will reach over 5 feet when
unobstructed. (Joking, Joking) The unit's instructions advise to keep one's lips somewhat
closed around the spray for this precise reason. (Just try doing this 1
foot from your mirror with your mouth wide open and see what
happens...)

I must admit that both Jay (who has rarely flossed in his life) and I have taken to the Oral Irrigator quite well. I prefer to
use chilled water from the unit sitting overnight, but the other half's gums are
too sensitive, so he uses water direct from the tap. I also prefer, and
suggest, doing this in the shower....with a lovely Toilet Tree fogless mirror.
Even after several uses I still manage to forget now and then and spray
my surroundings! The feeling is very intense, but never painful, and
the effects are quite refreshing. My mouth feels much cleaner, and even
healthier, and my smile is noticeably sharper. The Oral Irrigator is
also especially useful for those with mouth appliances (such as braces),
and priceless when part of a regular oral care routine.


Toilet Tree now has an oral care line that includes a brand new power toothbrush, I hope to experience soon- The duo, together is quite affordable and would make a great gift for anyone dreading their next dental checkup. Daily oral care can be quite tedious, but having precision devices, like the Oral Irrigator make them just a little less of a pain. As the second generation irrigator released by the company, you can rest assured that this device has been fine tuned for battery life and convenience, making it an even better deal than ever before. (Water) floss away, my friends!
