Waterpik - Complete Care 5.0 Water Flosser and Triple Sonic Toothbrush - Black

This is probably the best personal health purchase I have ever made. The toothbrush has three settings: clean, whiten, and massage. The clean setting will have your teeth feeling like you just went to the dentist. The first time I used it I was completely amazed. I was honestly grossed out by the difference because I'm pretty serious about teeth brushing and even still they never felt as clean as they did after using this brush. The whiten setting is perfect for if you use a whitening paste after brushing (such as a baking soda mixture, etc.). I've only been using the brush for a week and can already tell the difference from when I used a whitening paste with a regular toothbrush. Again, so awesome but also made me feel kind of gross I live without it for so long. The massage setting...I suppose this is for massaging your gums or something. I've never used it. The water flosser is equally fantastic. Made the mistake of turning the pressure up too high right out of the gate and got shockingly strong pelt of water to the back of my throat that was exceedingly unpleasant. Once I played around with the various pressure settings, I was very impressed with it. It comes with several different tips including ones for use with braces or "pockets." it is also a very compact system. It fits onto my sink top to the side of the faucet with room to spare. Do yourself a favor. Get this device. Clean the f*ck out of your mouth. Watch your dentist's mouth drop and finally have the satisfaction of saying "Yes! I DO floss daily!"

My family has used Oral B electric brushes for over 15 years, but with our 11 year-old needing braces, we looked for a better way he could floss than with the string flossers. After a day of research, reading reviews, watching videos, and basically using Amazon's customers to provide background for my decision, I purchased 3 of these - one for my husband, one for the 11 year-old, and one for myself!! I am flabbergasted that I didn't know about something like this before now. I have struggled with string flossing for years, and was never told by any dentist that I was doing a good job, though I really put a lot of effort into being sure to do as thorough a cleaning as I could. After the first use of the Water Pik 5.0 (Model 861WW) followed by a brushing with the WaterPik toothbrush, my mouth and teeth felt better than when I leave the dentist office after a 6-month cleaning. I will be buying more of this model for gifts to my older children this Christmas, as I want everyone in my family to have one. The footprint of this model is so small that it fits on the edge of our double bathroom sinks in nearly the same space that the Oral B electric brushes alone fit. What a great designed compact product that does a wonderful job,. You won't be sorry if you give this a try, believe me.

I'm 61 yrs. This was a birthday gift to myself. I love my new Waterpic combo triple sonic toothbrush unit. I've had it about 2 months. Obviously it is convenient to have both items together on my counter top. I don't use one without the other. Truth told - I was shocked after brushing my teeth as usual with manual large head toothbrush, at how much debris still flushes away from gums and between teeth when I use the Waterpic. Usually after going to the dentist for a cleaning my teeth feel perfectly polished for about a week. But two months out.... I still feel like I just went to the dentist ! As far as the smaller brush head on the electric sonic toothbrush - it actually gets into the in-between spaces of your teeth at gum level better than the long strands of large toothbrush with less irritation on my gums. The three speeds actually massage the gums quite comfortably while breaking the small stuck particles away. I can't wait to go for my 6 month check up again. ( Can't believe I said that as I hate going to the dentist having plaque cleaned away) But I know my gums line is cleaner than it ever has been since I started daily use of my waterpic. If i know the difference, I can't wait to get my official report back from my dentist. I should have bought a waterpic years ago !!! For best possible teeth and gum hygiene -EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE ONE!

I had a Waterpik unit that we used faithfully until it broke. The dentist is a like car mechanic, you cannot tell what they are doing "under the hood". I respect both professions BTW. Every-time, I go the dentist, its the same old story...not flossing enough, cavity here, and need a filling there. I started using dental floss picks here and there, although I do brush regularly. This Waterpik with electric toothbrush is amazing so far! We will see how long the toothbrush lasts. However, the important thing is the actual ability to floss. The appliance comes with 5 attachments and two brush heads: 2 - JT-100E - Waterpik® Classic Jet Tip 1 - OD-100E - Waterpik® Orthodontic Tip 1 - PS-100E - Waterpik® Plaque Seeker® Tip 1 - PP-100E - Waterpik® Pik Pocket™ Tip 2 - STRB-3WB - Waterpik Triple Sonic®/Complete Care 5.0 Replacement Brush Heads - Black You can control the pressure using the convenient knob. There is a main power switch and the actual handle has an on/off switch. The older model had a rocker type of switch that was not friendly. It would squirt at the wrong time! Hopefully the Waterpik will keep the dentist at bay, my wallet happier, and my teeth clean!

This unit is pretty well built, but it seems like Waterpik made some compromises to meet a price point. The most obvious one is that the water pump for the flossing device is pretty noisy. It also sounds very rough and "sloppy", like it is not a good quality pump. Otherwise the unit is convenient. It is nice to have both functions combined in one unit. I read a few revieves online before I purchased it. One author said that his dentist was much happier with the condition of his gums after he started using the water flossing on this unit in addition to a sonic brush. Waterpik suggests filling the water tank with warm water. That has been necessary for comfort here in Michigan during cooler weather, so there is an extra bit of fuss when using the flosser. They also indicate that the water tank holds about 90 seconds worth of water. I can use the flosser twice without refilling if I'm not concerned with the water temperature. This is a good investment at the price point. If I continue to use the flossing device I may try to upgrade to something that is quieter, but that may also be much more expensive.

After some very expensive dental work (Implants) and spending $6,000 of my own before insurance, and based on the recommendation of my dentist office on more than one occasion, I decided to invest in a waterpik system. I always hated flossing.. valuable yes, but too time consuming so I still would rarely do it. While the goal was to get the water flosser, I was not sure I wanted an electric toothbrush too. My considerations included wanting less on my bathroom counter, so I decided to "go big or stay home' in order to condense what I was using. OMG.. From the very first time my teeth and mouth felt amazing; like just leaving the dentist office!! I actually now (waterpik) floss twice a day and love it. My husband is being told he is experiencing bone loss and they also recommended this for him. I told him how much I love mine and so I'm shopping for a whole second unit for another bathroom. Worth every penny and it's only been a week...

I have sat tight for a little while before composing this review since I needed to perceive what sort of progress it makes inside its use. What's more, now I am prepared to expound on it. The item was less costly due to a direct result of offer advancement and the expanded two years warranty was a take. Charge stay right.The toothbrush has a few components, for example, cleaning, massage, and whitening. The bundle accompanies a few different picks to assemble on the water gadget of extra dental care. I can put hot or cold temperature water to use. Flossing with water weight is compelling, pleasant and fun. I have seen a great deal of positive changes on my teeth as far as color, plaque and overall condition. I prescribe keeping the original package to convey the gadget for travel times. The main con I would state is that occasionally it makes lots of water mess amid flossing.

I finally broke down and got a Waterpik when my dentist told me I had periodontal pockets and would need a deep cleaning. I read somewhere that with regular use of a Waterpik, I might just be able to reverse those pockets and eliminate that need for an uncomfortable deep cleaning. I gave it a three-month try and it worked! No deep cleaning needed! Also, I spoke with my primary care physician about plaque, and learned that there are two more (one of them could save your life) benefits to Waterpiking regularly. See my UPDATE at the end of this review. I have noticed that others have asked a lot of the questions that I had early on inside of their reviews and in the customer questions section. So I thought I would gather up all of the answers and put them in one review. I hope this will be your Guide to Using Your New Aquarius Waterpik.
