Be it waterpik, floss, or proxabrush, you’ve got to clean interproximally daily! Well now you have a new choice: Sonicare’s AirFloss. It has its own charger base and unique tip for application. And oh this baby works! It spurts out a quick and powerful burst of air with microdroplets of water or Listerine or whatever liquid you want to put in it. I expectorated, looked in the sink, and Bam! There were all these food particles that were in between my teeth! WOW! It really works! It feels clean! Great for those who cannot reach the posteriors with their big hands, or just cannot master the hand-floss coordination thing. Of course its a bit messy so make sure you are over the sink. My only issue is that it is for interproximal spaces so if you recommend this for someone with pockets on the direct buccal then a waterpik would be a better choice. I do not recommend it for major perio patients, just for those with early perio/gingivitis. Go to the website to get a free professional trial and also see a cool video of the AirFloss in action.
