NEW BATTERY-POWERED WATER FLOSSER WATERPIK® WP-02 CORDLESS EXPRESS
10 Jul 2017
Waterpik® continues to expand its range of water flossers, to offer the best solutions in water flossing.
For thorough dental hygiene, water flossers are a good choice, as they facilitate interproximal cleaning and allow access to deep subgingival and hard-to-access areas like implants, crowns and orthodontic appliances.
In combination with daily brushing, water flossing gives a supremely fresh feeling of cleanliness, and makes removal of dental biofilm easy, enhancing gum health. In order to adapt to different users’ needs, as the official Waterpik® distributor in Spain and Andorra, DENTAID is launching the new Waterpik® WP-02 Cordless water flosser as of May 2017.
BACKED BY SCIENCE
All Waterpik® products are endorsed by over 60 scientific studies proving the effectiveness of water flossing in reducing oral biofilm and improving gum health, by reducing bleeding and reversing gingival inflammation. These clinical studies confirm that Waterpik® flossers: • eliminate 99.9% of dental biofilm in treated areas(1).
• are twice as effective as regular dental floss in reducing bleeding of gums(2).
• are 93% more effective than regular dental floss in improving gum health(3).
• are 3 times more effective than regular floss in cleaning around orthodontic appliances, thanks to the orthodontic tip(4).
• provide adequate gum care by maintaining implants with the Pik Pocket® tip(5).
