In 1962 the Aqua Tee corporation later to be known as Waterpik came into being. Since then Waterpik has become one of the premier producers of not only water jet based dental flossing tools, but also other personal care and oral health products.
One of the most effective water flossing tools is the Waterpik Wp-100. There are many reasons why the WP-100 functions so well.
Facts and Tips
The WP-100 is the Ultra Water Flosser. It is highly effective for cleaning and flossing many types of dental conditions. People with braces, dentures, crowns and other types of dental fixtures can benefit greatly by using a Waterpik.
When you compare the difference between the use of traditional string style floss and using the Waterpik Wp-100, studies show that water flossing is far more effective. Often cleaning difficult to reach spots around your teeth can be very hard with string floss and tooth picks or other common cleaning tools. This is where the Waterpik comes in. A jet of water with the right tip can really make a difference in removing food particles and maintaining the health of your teeth and gums.

Fewer Trips to the Dentist
Not many people are excited about going to a dentist, myself included. I don’t even like going to the dental hygienist for teeth cleaning. I will do what it takes to avoid going to the dentist. If there is a tool I can use to keep my teeth extra clean and healthy I will usually try it. I have found combining the Waterpik together with a good natural, chemical and sugarless tooth paste on my toothbrush and a traditional string floss as a backup that I can minimize the amount of trips to the dentist.
Clinical Studies
There are some very informative studies that have been completed by different laboratories that show a 50% improvement in oral health between regular flossing and flossing with a Waterpik. An even higher effective rate is found for combating gingivitis, bleeding gums and for removing plaque. When dental health professional are asked which water flosser they would recommend it is usually the Ultra Flosser Waterpik WP-100.
You can buy portable cordless style water flossers as well as water flossers designed specifically for kids. There is even a travel version.
When you take into account all the oral health benefits for a wide variety of users, the WP-100 Ultra Flosser is a great choice when you want to make a big difference in the health of your teeth and gums.
