Review on ๐Ÿšฟ VTOOTH Portable Water Flosser - Powerful Cordless Electric Dental Oral Irrigator with 2 Modes - College Essentials Travel, IPX7 Waterproof Teeth Cleaner for Braces and Bridges Care by Lori Marquez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Decent if impractical aerator

Firstly I worked for a large dental equipment manufacturer so I have to start by saying THIS IS NOT A FLOSSIER. This device does not replace normal dental floss. Think of it like a mighty toothpick. It's great for washing away residue left over from regular flossing. It will make your teeth feel better, but it won't shorten your next dentist appointment if you don't take good care of your teeth. WELL? Good. Now back to your regular review. This image differs from most portable devices in that it doesn't have a water tank, just a hose that you put in a glass of water. This means you can choose the size of your "tank", but it makes it a little awkward to use if your bathroom isn't organized in a certain way. I like to use the irrigator in the shower as the water runs all over my face. That meant I had to hold a glass in one hand and a pike in the other. I'm not going to deduct stars for the issue I'm having, but it's worth considering. The setting wasn't perfect either. You need to prepare it before setting it up by immersing the bare pen in water and turning it on. But then the handle was wet, making it difficult to put the tip on because you had to twist it into the "lock" position while it and your hand were wet and slippery. Some sort of rubberized piece at the top would help with that. It took me several tries before I actually thought something might break before the tip finally snapped into place. One star off for this experience. At the lowest level, it's like shooting a kitchen sink sprayer in your mouth (I guess you don't read too much about it). It's a comfortable, comfortable flow of water. On a higher setting, there's real cleaning action, with a strong but not uncomfortable burst of water that really feels like washing something between your teeth. Despite the strength, a regular 6-8 ounce glass of water was enough to wipe the entire mouth on both sides of the teeth and there was still some left over. And that's why I'm deducting the second star from this review. Most water pickers have no problem holding enough water to get the job done, so what's the benefit of this device? This is a solution that pretends that there is a problem that needs to be fixed. He does what he says and does it well, but what do we care?

Pros
  • 1 push button controls and protection with automatic timer
Cons
  • Some bugs
