How do water picks work?

Published in Oral Hygiene 1 min read

Water picks work by using a focused stream of water to clean between your teeth. The device is designed to dislodge food particles and debris that brushing alone might miss.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

  • Targeted Water Jet: Water picks concentrate a jet of water between your teeth. This forceful stream helps to remove plaque and food particles. (According to reference from 19-Feb-2019)
  • Adjustable Intensity: Many water pick models come with varying intensity settings. This allows you to customize the water pressure based on your sensitivity levels, especially if you have sensitive teeth and gums.

In short, water picks provide a targeted and adjustable stream of water to improve oral hygiene by removing debris from hard-to-reach areas.
