Review on Enhanced Dental Care: Philips 🦷 Sonicare Airfloss Ultra, HX8432/13, Black Edition by Hayden Wang ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Think carefully before you buy this product

We have been using irrigators for many years with the whole family. All previous irrigators were stationary, there was also a model from Philips. All, regardless of the price category, performed their functions well, for us it was cleaning the interdental spaces and the surface of the teeth, strengthening the gums. I wanted to buy a portable irrigator without extra cords and hoses. We chose the Sonicare AirFloss Ultra HX8438. The general opinion of our family is that this is a very beautiful rinse aid dispenser, nothing more. On the maximum mode "3" the jet is weak, no cleansing of the interdental space is felt. The surface of the teeth is also not completely washed, as in stationary irrigators. Strengthening of the gums does not occur, the jet simply does not hit them, and 20 ml is not enough for a full treatment of the oral cavity. Of course, I fell for the many positive reviews. Now, after re-reading them, I understand that 80% are reviews “from the manufacturer”: “the irrigator was recommended to me by a dentist”, then a list of functions from the description and five stars. I tried to write a review on the website of the official Philips store, it was a quest. Firstly, the number of reviews for this model has not changed for many months - 18 reviews, strictly five stars. The ability to add your own review was disabled on the site (the button simply did not work), after several of my requests, writing a review became available. But my review was not published for several days, until I again contacted the chat with a request to publish a review for a real purchase in this store. Even for trips, I do not recommend this model, there are cheaper and better ones. With all due respect to the manufacturer, this purchase is money thrown away.

Cons
  • does not function as an irrigator, many custom reviews (details below)

Does not completely replace dental floss, only in addition after a complete oral hygiene.
