Flossing is the most important part of my oral healthcare routine, but guess what? I really can't stand using dental floss. My teeth don't have a lot of room between them for the floss to fit through, so I always end up making my gums bleed. So whats a girl to do? Skip an important part of my daily dental healthcare routine? Considering that I am firmly attached to all of my teeth, that isn't an option. Thankfully there is a product that can help me: the Waterpik Aquarius Professional Water Flosser - it offers the ultimate cleaning experience without dental floss!
Clinically proven to improve gum health versus regular dental floss, the Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser leaves my mouth feeling fresh and clean, and it even looks pretty sitting on my bathroom counter! I was a little nervous that this wouldn't work for me, as my teeth are spaced very close together, but with 10% more water pressure than other water flossers, it actually did a great job of getting between my teeth!
I have been using the water flosser for a few weeks now, and it has been much easier to practice a better oral hygiene routine knowing that I can use the water flosser instead of dental floss. The Waterpik water flosser was clinically proven to be 50% more effective for improving gum health compared to regular dental floss, and proven to remove up to 99.9% of plaque from treated areas in 3 seconds. So not only did I find a way to floss without making my gums bleed, but I am actually practicing better oral hygiene now! The pulse moderation system offers Cleaning and Gum Massage modes and there are 10 pressure settings to meet your water flossing needs. That means that my entire family can use the Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser, which is extremely important because Chris suffers from periodontal issues, and Angeline has to pay extra special attention to her oral care routine now that she wears Invisalign aligners.
Angeline was actually the first one to use our new water flosser when it arrived; I came home from running errands to find this on the bathroom counter...
I guess she couldn't wait for me to get home! Ordinarily I wouldn't include a photo that was so messy in a blog post, but I thought this was a great way to show you just how easy it was to figure out how to work it - Angeline didn't even need to read the instruction manual, she just followed the directions on the back of the box!
The Waterpik Aquarius Professional Water Flosser features an On/Off water control on handle to make it even easier to use; two Water Flossing Modes and includes 7 Water Flosser Tips. There is even a one-minute timer with a 30-second pacer, so there's no guesswork involved and you know exactly how long you need to water floss of all areas of your teeth.
How do you feel about flossing? Do you think you would floss more often if you had an awesome Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser?

I've wanted a waterpik for awhile. Now I really want one. Thanks for the info.
Tammi
We gave a waterpik to my MIL and she said it's the best thing ever. I think i need to get myself one!
Liz Mays
I floss every day, but this would be so much less hassle if it can do it without fighting with floss!
Daisy
I floss twice a day, but my hubby only does it a few times a week. I think that the Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser may be especially good for my husband since I think that he would like it and it would be on the counter reminding him to use it!
Kelsey Apley
This sounds neat! I always wondered about this and if it would work good! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it!
Angela
I can honestly say that would probably floss a whole lot more with one of these. I'll have to check into getting one.
Ellen Christian
I really hate flossing. I would definitely do it more often with this.
Melanie Roberts
Awesome review..thanks for sharing, Sooo glad I found it, I was just asking hubby what he thinks of the new waterpik and that I had plans to grab one for the family, now I will soooo get one, that's for sure..thank you
Candace
When my nine year old got braces this year I knew flossing was going to be a nightmare so I invested in a Waterpik. Best thing we ever did. Her teeth are amazing.
Mindy Grant
This looks like a much gentler way to floss! I really hate to floss. My gums always end up a bloody mess. This I could definitely do!
Pam
My son's dentist suggested one of these when he got braces. It really helped keep his teeth clean!
Tammilee
I am not a fan of flossing. I need to check out the waterpik and see what i think of it.
brett
i'm quite enamored with this as well. I hate flossing. HAAAAAAAAAATE it.
Clair Boone
AWESOME! I hate flossing too and this would rally help!
Mama to 5 BLessings
I so need to get one of these for my kids!
Nicole B
I have always wondered how these were different from flaw. They sound a lot better. I will have to look into these. I losflosst every day, but think this would do better.
Jennifer Soltys
I saw this and was wondering about the space issue. So glad you mentioned that your teeth are close together. I definitely will get one now!
Heather
We just got one too and my daughter that has braces totally took it! I want one of my own now too!
kristin
I honestly want one of these so bad. I have permanent retainers so flossing is hard in those tight spots.
Robin (Masshole Mommy)
Ugh, I am SO bad about flossing. I have to listen to my dentist yell at me about it every 6 months. Maybe this is the answer for me?
kita
I am not going to lie I was bad with flossing on a daily so this tool may help me do a better job of keeping up with it plus it won't be so boring lol
Dina
We have an older one of these and still use it daily. They are so awesome at helping the little ones who don't floss so well!!
Nancy Lustri
This looks so much easier and comfortable than flossing with string! Not a fan of flossing! I will definitely have to give this a try! 🙂
Brandy at MVL
I love WaterPik, we have a kids model for my daughter and she uses it often. I love this new style they have for the adult version, it looks slicker and slimmer than the older style. Perfect!
Whispered Inspirations
This looks awesome, flossing is a challenge for me because it often leaves my gums irritated. I would love to try this. Seems like it's gentle and effective.
Hanan
I hate flossing, because of the floss. I'd much rather use one of these instead!
Krissy
I just got one of these myself - they are AWESOME! My daughter has used it a lot since she just got braces, and it's helped her keep her mouth clean and healthy more then I know she'd be able to do on her own.
I love they are offering free shipping - I am thinking of purchasing one for my best friend who just got braces!
Jennifer Bullock {MommyBKnowsBest}
I actually don't mind flossing. Having the time to do it is another thing. With Invisalign though it keeps me on top of cleaning my teeth.
Kristen
I really hate flossing. Like, REALLY hate it. I didn't know that their isa product like this on the market. I will have to check it out!
Tracey
I HATE flossing! I need this!
Demetra
LOL, your counter is not too messy, much neater than mine. I've never used a Waterpik before but it looks like a good addition to my dental routine. Good dental hygiene is so important to good health.
Rachael
I hate flossing for the same reason you have. I really need one of these. I'll check them and compare on Amazon Prime.
Meagan Ivie
Sad to say, I'm not very good at flossing. However, I think I would actually want to floss if I had this!
Terin Garrett
I just went to the dentist yesterday and they told me I needed to start flossing more. My mom has one of these and swears by it! I need to invest in one!
Triplezmom
I really want one of these. I'm terrible about flossing.
Mandy
I had a waterpick when I was a teenager to help clean out my braces. It worked perfectly and I can remember my teeth feeling so clean. I wouldn't mind having one now as an adult.
April
Waterpiks are so cool! I really like the inter-changeable heads so that everyone in the family can use it.
Wendy
I've been using a waterpik for over 25 years....love it!
Janeane Davis
It is nice to see how easy to use the WaterPik device is to set up and use. It seems that it will make good dental health just a little easier.
Chrysa
I hate flossing! I use the little plastic pics, which makes it easier, but still not fun. I wonder if the Waterpik would make me like it more???
Paige
I've thought about buying one of these so many times! I hate flossing!
Jenni E.
I actually love to floss. I keep those little floss picks everywhere...in the car, in my purse. Love them. However, I would love to own a Waterpik. I know that one of these babies could really get my teeth nice and clean!
Cassie
While I floss everyday I hate it because it's just so scary. I've seen these and have been wanting to try one 🙂
Rosey
I'd love to have this in place of traditional floss. It'd be interesting to try it out, for sure!
Toni
I hate flossing, I do it, but begrudginglyy LOL. I need to try one of these!
Debra
I'll admit, I'm not a great flosser. I would hope a WaterPik like this would get me into the habit more to do.
Onica {MommyFactor}
I haven't tried using a water pik before but if they're easier to use then flossing, then maybe I should try. i'm always interested in simple ways to keep teeth healthy.
Debi
I have never used a water pik before. I never really gave it much thought but that is great that it works better than floss.
Kecia
I must admit that I am not a big fan of flossing either. My gums are sensitive, and no matter how well I care for them, they almost always bleed during flossing. I wonder if this is a better option for me too!
Eliz Frank
These must be coming back in droves... I like that they are pushing us to floss.
Ashley M
This is great. I also have problems with my gums bleeding 🙁 It's painful.
Jenn
I know, I hate when my gums bleed! And using mouthwash after your gums are bleeding really hurts!
Jenn
I has no clue that water flossers had been around for so long! I guess the technology must be a lot better than it was years ago - more people seem to be using them now 🙂
Jenn
I think you should give it a try! My gums almost always bled when flossing and the water flosser doesn't affect them at all!
Janel
I used to use a water pik when I had braces. I really liked it!
Michelle Cantu
I've always wondered how these work. I love that the entire family could use it, making it a better investment.
Emily
I love my WaterPik! I am a horrible string flosser, but the WaterPik has changed my life. I'm using it daily - my dental hygienist is going to be so proud!
Chrysa
I hate flossing - it is always such a chore! Maybe the Waterpik would make things easier for me!
Jenn
That looks amazing!! I love the feeling of flossed teeth, but hate the actual flossing. I have permanent retainer on my bottom teeth which makes it hard to get the string through! This looks like the tool I've been searching for!
allyson becker
I have always wanted one, but wow, this one is really cool!
RICHARD HICKS
I used to use one of these when growing up and somewhere along the line I stopped. They are really great and clean your teeth well
