My wife bought a Waterpick Waterflosser on Amazon after getting a cavity in her rear molar. As the name implies, this handheld water pump sprays a high-pressure stream of water to flush out food particles stuck between your teeth and below your gum line. It functions like flossing with water.
We chose the Waterflosser to save space in our tiny bathroom. I once owned a full-sized Waterpik which has a larger water reservoir and plugs in. But it does take up room on a sink top which can be in a short supply when you add an electric toothbrush charger, electric razor, and all the other bathroom supplies.
The battery powered Waterflosser is less than a third of the size of the plug-in Waterpik. The package comes with three AA disposable batteires but it can work with rechargeable NiMH. Waterpik also makes more expensive version with an internal rechargeable lithium battery.
The Waterflosser’s only shortcoming is its smaller water reservoir. Yes, you can refill it. But I quickly learned to be more efficient when cleaning my teeth. I can clean both my upper and lower teeth before fully emptying the Waterflosser.
Despite its smaller size and being battery powered, its water jets feel just as strong as a plug-in Waterpik. While it won’t compete with a Super Soaker in my non-scientific testing, my unit was able to shoot a stream out to 23ft away. There aren’t many other bathroom hygiene gadgets that make that claim.
