- Let’s talk about Waterpik. If you see your dentist and hygienist regularly, I am sure you have heard of Waterpik before. It’s a device that shoots a stream of water and helps removing bacterial plaque around and in between teeth.
If you are skeptical like I was, watch the full video too see why I fell in love with Waterpik.
How can Waterpik help?
According to their studies, Waterpik can remove more than 90% of plaque biofilm, which is collection of bacteria stuck to teeth.
This will help with inflamed and bleeding gum (gingivitis).
This will help cleaning places that’s hard to reach with a floss like cleaning under dental bridge, implant, and more. It also can help those of you who have problems with manual dexterity and have difficult time flossing. The water stream is so effective. It can clean gum pockets as deep as 9 mm.

Water pick is great, but the faucet would have cleaned the corn cob just as well
Maybe when done right after the cinnamon was put in there, but stuff that sits on the teeth bonds because things get sticky in there, so you need more pressure to get it off. Its a very good device. I recommend mixing in peroxide to really kill germs down under the gumline. My teeth and gums are much healthier and the cleanings take a fraction of the time than then did before I started using it regularly. I also recommend keeping brushpicks on hand when you want to clean between teeth and can't brush at that time after a meal.
but you can't put a tap in your mouth with the comfort of an oral irrigator
Two dental hygienists told me you CAN damage your gums if you use too much water pressure. Good to use but be careful.
Yes, it can detach gums from teeth or prevent the gums from reattaching. Something similar can happen with aggressive flossing.
But you rinse your mouth while brushing which is not used in this demonstration.
I think that's a horrible experiment. I feel like if you were to put corn under a running tap the cinnamon would still come off and that's not the same for plaque on teeth.
I dusted off the water pick ,,wish she was my Dentist😁
Good example. Mine works great. I also floss, use an electric brush and my own DIY toothpaste. No cavities in years.
@D G
Can you share Diy paste ingredients?
@@tishavstisha Happy to share. It's very simple. I mix EV + Organic Coconut Oil (solid below 76F type) with a small amount of Xylitol and an even smaller amount of pink sea salt.
I bought a silicone tube to dispense it. Tip- if you put that mixture briefly in warm water (above 76F) it becomes a liquid that can easily be poured into the tube- it firms up again very quickly- e.g., 5 minutes in the fridge. Tip 2. If you go camping and it's in your bag- it can quickly become liquid too (don't ask!) (; I do not add any mint as you should not ingest essential oils.
All of my ingredients are FOOD GRADE and Organic. I would have no issues if I ingested this mixture. Because there are no preservatives of any kind in my recipe, I make a fresh batch about every 2 weeks. Using ingredients that do not contain water is generally safer- less risk of bacteria. Also, never cross contaminate- dip brush into a glass jar. If you use an air tight glass jar (very good), use a fresh dispenser like a spoon every time.
Another key is to use a quality electric tooth brush (correctly) and use a Water Flosser/pik. I still floss as well. The mechanical action of brushing is key- even if I did not use any paste. You also want to rinse after eating or drinking if possible. I bought a pH kit and surprisingly, nearly everything is acidic- some things are very acidic. I also do not use a rinse- many are actually acidic and most contain harmful preservatives and other unhealthy ingredients as well as alcohol.
@@MOAB-UT Thank you so much. 💝
@@tishavstisha You may wanna try “hello” brand of activated charcoal toothpaste. You can purchase it @ Dollar General actually, I was surprised. Tastes great & leaves your mouth minty fresh. Has coconut oil & fresh mint in it. Vegan also, but does have small percentage of flouride in it. Plus it’s fun brushing with black toothpaste & scaring your kids with a gray smile when brushing lol. It’s made my teeth whiter than anyother I’ve used.
@@MOAB-UT what is EV?
I just bought the whitening waterpik! It arrives sunday. I hate the feeling of flossing so I barely do it. luckily I never had a cavity but i can see the effects of not flossing catching up. This machine makes me motivated to do it though!!
Nice vid that explains how effective a water flosser is. My OOLLDD Water Pik died and I've ordered the new Water Pik 9.0 Complete Care to replace it and my aging electric brush. Love the clean feeling I get from the full cleansing.
This comparison is completely flawed. If she had used a brush and rinsed with water she would probably have had the same outcome as with the waterpik. This is an example of a misleading comparison without controlling for variables. As a dentist she should have known better.
I bought the travel size and feel the pressure is too high for me, I keep bleeding everytime I use it
I think your experiment is incomplete, obviously after brushing one would rinse their mouth, it would hv been nice to see what the cobb looks like after brushing n rinsing rather than just brushing…
Here in the US most dentists don't recommend rinsing because it washes away fluoride.
I use a combo of regular floss and waterpix flosser.....works for me.
This is a darn cinnamon not hard plaque that is sticking to your teeth and gum like a Krazy glue!!
Just floss and brush and take your time while doing it without rushing, don't use monthwash and rinse with warm water, do this daily " if you skipped a day it's not a big deal ". Pay a visit to the dentist every year to 18 months for checking and regular cleaning, be gentle on your teeth, avoid eating a lot of candies and you'll be fine. Most of the time, teeth issues are cause by health problems and very bad diet.
After my next cleaning, I'm going to pick up one cuz I have pockets on the bottom and even with brushing & flossing, the tartar keeps coming back.
How long should I wait after a deep cleaning to water floss?
Should I floss as well if I'm using a waterpik
Yes, for better results you should also floss
Why don't you try something like peanut butter on there just having cinnamon is a joke you could put that under a faucet and I will rinse away
Amazing , I love mine and worth every penny.
Fantasy’s history always started with “according to the studies “ .. in the 70s was “the was a time “ .. so sell it properly
how many times you have to do it daily? is it harmful if you use waterpic after each meal or snacks?
Once or twice a day is sufficient. Floss as well, though, since the contacts between your teeth need a bit of floss love.
It's not suitable for people with sensitive teeth.
It is. Use warm water. Also, for many it takes time to work up to the ideal pressure. Start at the lowest and go from there. I have a ton of fillings and bone loss from taking horrible care of my teeth when I was younger. Just ease into it. If you're having pain using warm water, you either have cavities that aren't properly filled or you have a gum issue.
@@stuff8605 You're right.
Check Revelation 14:12 and 18:23, Please beware of the PCR test is alarming what people have shown.
Use it instead of flossing myself
How much did you get paid by Waterpik? Floss it best.
corn example is a bad example
Literally could have just rinsed under water and would have gotten the same results…
That may be so, but no one is putting their head under a faucet. The point is the water and force do more than brushing alone, not what's the most efficient way to remove cinnamon from corn. Trying to be so smart kind of backfired.
@@shedenge1 nothing backfired for me because what I said is true. It’s corn and rinsing with water would have got you the same results.
Who eats corn with cinnamon
😆
That's the idea. If you ever find yourself with a bowl of corn covered in cinnamon, you can use a waterpik to remove the cinnamon. That way you still get to eat the corn.
Did you seriously just SPRINKLE CINNAMON on a corn cob and push it around with a toothbrush as an example? CORN, which is SOFT & DRY, and CINNAMON-- a DUST? What are you- a TikTok dentist? This is an insult to people's intelligence.
this experiment is terrible. cinnamon doesnt stick to the corn. she could've just rinsed it under running water and it'd be the same thing. hows that any different than swishing water in your mouth? the fact that this woman made this ridiculous video makes me question her abilities as a doctor. seriously.
