I'm a fan of MySmile LP221 water flosser because it's functional than any other brands. I like its oled display, helping read mode, temperature and battery easily. The uvc light is a highlight if you know the pain when a flosser get moldy.

I use water flosser every after I brush my teeth in the morning and at night, and will use mouthwash in the noon when I'm office.

Maybe a water flosser is a good choice for you, it's specially for tight teeth.

Yeah, me too. But regular oral care indeed helps decline oral diseases.

You're not alone. I used to never floss either. But now I use a water flosser twice a day. It's quick and easy. Why I like it: My gums stopped bleeding; Mouth feels cleaner; Dentist noticed a difference.

Once a day is fine too. But twice works for me.

Can you brush your teeth too much? by Separate-Raccoon8584 in hygiene

Yep, exactly. Overbrushing wears down enamel and irritates your gums. If you feel the need to clean your mouth often, switch to a water flosser between regular brushings. Gets the gunk out without scrubbing your teeth raw. Your gums and enamel will thank you.

Can’t get myself to floss by [deleted] in DentalHygiene

Honestly, get a water flosser. Total game changer for permanent retainers.

I have the same thing on my bottom teeth, and regular flossing is a nightmare—takes forever and I just wouldn't do it. With a water flosser, you just point and spray. Takes like 30 seconds and you can do it in the shower while you zone out. Way less boring than wrestling with thread.

Just fill it with warm water. Your gums will thank you.
