Plaque is a sticky film of bacteria that constantly forms on your teeth. It can cause cavities, gum disease, and bad breath if you don’t remove it regularly. Brushing your teeth twice a day is a good start, but it’s not enough to get rid of all the plaque. You also need to floss your teeth at least once a day to clean the spaces between your teeth and along your gumline.

But flossing with a string can be tricky, messy, and uncomfortable. It can also damage your gums if you use too much force or the wrong technique. That’s why many people skip flossing or don’t do it properly.

If you’re looking for a better way to floss your teeth, you should consider using a water flosser. A water flosser is a device that uses a stream of water to clean your teeth and gums. It’s easy, effective, and gentle on your oral health.

And when it comes to water flossers, there’s no better choice than Perfora’s Smart Dental Flosser. Perfora is an oral care brand that offers innovative and effective products for your oral health. Their Smart Dental Flosser is a portable and travel-friendly device that removes up to 99.9% of plaque from your teeth and gums. It’s 50% more effective than traditional string floss and reduces the risk of dental problems such as cavities and gum disease

Water Flosser vs. Traditional Flossing: Which One is Better for You?

You may be wondering how Water Flossing compares to traditional flossing with a string. Which one is more effective at removing plaque and improving your oral health? Which one is more convenient and comfortable to use? Which one is more suitable for your specific needs and preferences?

Effectiveness

Both water flossing and traditional flossing are proven methods to clean between your teeth and prevent dental problems. However, water flossing has some advantages over traditional flossing in terms of effectiveness.

According to a study by the Mayo Clinic1, water flossing can remove up to 99.9% of plaque from treated areas, while traditional flossing can remove up to 81%. Water flossing can also reduce gingival bleeding by 93%, while traditional flossing can reduce it by 81%. Water flossing can also reduce gingivitis by 52%, while traditional flossing can reduce it by 33%.

Perfora’s Smart Dental Flosser is even more effective than other water flossers because it has a pulsating feature that compresses and decompresses the gum tissue, allowing for deeper cleaning and better removal of plaque and bacteria. It also has five different modes and nozzles that you can customize according to your needs and preferences.

Convenience

Another factor to consider when choosing between water flossing and traditional flossing is convenience. How easy and comfortable is it to use each method? How much time and effort does it take to floss your teeth?

Water flossing is generally more convenient than traditional flossing for several reasons. First, water flossing is faster and easier than traditional flossing. It takes only one minute to floss your entire mouth with a water flosser, while it takes about two minutes to floss with a string. Water flossing is also easier to maneuver and control than string floss, especially if you have braces, implants, or other dental work.

Second, water flossing is more comfortable than traditional flossing. Water flossing does not cause any pain, irritation, or bleeding of the gums, unlike string floss, which can sometimes cut or injure the gums if used incorrectly or too forcefully. Water flossing is also more gentle on the enamel and does not cause any abrasion or sensitivity of the teeth.

Third, water flossing is more hygienic than traditional flossing. Water flossing does not require you to touch your mouth or teeth with your fingers, unlike string floss, which can transfer bacteria and germs from your hands to your mouth. Water flossing also does not leave any residue or waste behind, unlike string floss, which can leave bits of floss or plaque on your teeth or in your sink.

Perfora’s Smart Dental Flosser is even more convenient than other water flossers because it has a portable and travel-friendly design that you can take anywhere with you. It has a 220 ml water tank capacity that allows you to floss without interruption. It has a long battery life that lasts for 30 days after a single 4-hour charge. It has a smart memory function that remembers your preferred mode and pressure. It has an IPX7 waterproof exterior that enables you to use it in the shower and clean it easily.

Suitability

The final factor to consider when choosing between water flossing and traditional flossing is suitability. Which method is more suitable for your specific needs and preferences? Which method is more compatible with your lifestyle and habits?

Water flossing is generally more suitable for people who have difficulty or dislike using string floss. This includes people who have braces, implants, bridges, crowns, or other dental work that makes it hard to use string floss. This also includes people who have arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other conditions that affect their hand mobility or dexterity. This also includes people who have sensitive teeth, gums, or enamel that are prone to pain, irritation, or bleeding from string floss.

Water flossing is also more suitable for people who want to improve their oral health and hygiene. This includes people who have plaque, tartar, cavities, or gum disease that need to be treated or prevented. This also includes people who have bad breath, stains, or discoloration that need to be freshened or whitened. This also includes people who want to enhance their smile and confidence by having a clean and healthy mouth.

Perfora’s Smart Dental Flosser is even more suitable than other water flossers because it caters to different needs and preferences of different users. It has five different modes and nozzles that you can choose from according to your oral condition and desired outcome.

• Attach one of the five nozzles to the handle. Each nozzle has a different shape for different purposes. You can use the standard nozzle for general cleaning, the periodontal nozzle for deep cleaning, or the tongue cleaner for tongue scraping.
• Turn on the device and point the nozzle at your teeth. Hold the device at a 90-degree angle to your gumline and move it along your teeth. Make sure to floss both the front and back of each tooth and gently massage your gums.
