We are self employed and so our Dental comes straight out of our pocket because it is too costly as a small business to have Dental Insurance. This means that we have to be very careful with our teeth. Not so advantageous when you hate to floss! I was also really lucky to have inherited my mom's bad teeth so I wanted something that would improve my odds. I have been looking at sonic toothbrushes which are 159 times more effective than regular tooth brushes.
My Mom is like me, and likes to share things she knows or has recently heard, when I got my new water flosser I remembered her telling me that her dentist recommended she use 1/2 water and 1/2 mouth wash in it. So I gave it a try. It was amazing after just a few days how much better my mouth felt. I did not get bad breath as quickly and my mouth felt much cleaner. The real test came when I ate popcorn and saw the kernals come out from between my teeth after I had already brushed. I am now totally sold and am so glad I have an alternative to regular dental floss.
Now the fun part was the water flosser we got for the boys.
It looks like this with cute decals they can decorate with.
I did have to inform Matthew that he still had to brush his teeth as he was ready to just use the water flosser. It's up to 1000 times better than flossing and a lot more fun! It was easier for him to use a cup and just fill the reservoir instead of pulling the cup off. Matthew just turned 4 so I was hesitant that my bathroom would not be the same however after just a few tries he totally go the hang of it and now is a pro.
