Everything for cleaning the oral cavity (irrigators, brushes, pastes and dental centers)

I want to intercede for AquaJet a little, because I have just such a model and I am satisfied with the operation of the device. Maybe our teeth are sensitive, but our family has enough pressure so far, even at level 3, to process the teeth. Did you add power on the handle of the device itself, where the nozzle is inserted? Or was the power set only on the device? Since this is exactly how we first, without reading the instructions, rated the device as weak. But it turned out that he still had a regulator on the handle, which greatly affects the operation of the device. When the power on the handle was added, everything fell into place, the power became absolutely normal. Or maybe you came across a defective copy, after all, really, well, how to determine when buying right away. You can only connect and check at home. I also bought at the pharmacy.

Anastasia, where is the regulator on the handle ?! There is such a blue runner, it either turns on or off the jet. I understand / that this is so that the "on-off" button is not to be pulled and not drenched while you transfer from one position to another ... Damn, here I am "a disco in the village", eh! Tell me how ... chicken ... I'll go back to unpack ... I'm getting old .. ... before, only a computer was smarter than me in the house, but by the age of forty, there was also an irrigator
Anastasia. I'm waiting for help. Desirable step by step photos

Anastasia, where is the regulator on the handle ?! There is such a blue runner, it either turns on or off the jet. I understand / that this is in order not to pull the "on-off" button

Cake, at first I generally took this lever for a nozzle ejector from the nest, since there is an inscription OPEN above it. And I was very upset that the irrigator was weak. Then I went to read the instructions, and it turned out that the lever is responsible for the jet - now there is simply no instruction at hand to quote the text verbatim. As a result, my lever is in the highest position and the jet has become noticeably stronger than without this lever. Maybe it will help you too? I am very worried, because I know how the mood falls when you buy a thing and then you realize that you made the wrong choice. This is how it looks to me, in this position the jet is the strongest. And the regulator on the device itself is at 3.

[Cakes]

Girls, tell me, can only one family member use the irrigator or change the nozzles and let them go around?

And really looking forward to impressions Cakeswho figured out the blue button on the Aquadget. Here, as I understand it, you can only get him and Brown.

Girls, tell me, can only one family member use the irrigator or change the nozzles and let them go around?

We change the nozzles and start them in a circle. IMHO. I have two absolutely identical nozzles, only the rings are multi-colored. If it was a spare, why distinguish it by color?

I am very worried, because I know how the mood falls when you buy a thing and then you realize that you made the wrong choice.

Anastasia, today I didn’t get to the Aquadget hidden in the mezzanine. I'll postor tomorrow ...
Today I was busy with a new "toy" - I bought a Titanium noodle cutter at METRO at a discount. In KhP I kneaded the dough, and in the noodle cutter, the children came to a fight - who will turn the handle, cut the noodles into thin-thick-narrow wide ...
OFF. In the magazine "Gastronom" I read that real noodles are cooked ONLY on eggs, WITHOUT adding liquid. Otherwise, it becomes thick during cooking and spreads quickly. How! Therefore, absolutely egg noodles navarganila full table!

Girls, tell me, can only one family member use the irrigator or do we change the nozzles and let them go around?

Can be used by 4 people, because there are 4 attachments included. I'm talking about AquaJet. Brown also has 4 nozzles for four
man.

My Panasonic has two nozzles. This I mean, if someone is going to buy like mine did not expect four.

My irrigator (WaterPik WP-100) has three types of nozzles. The usual one, which I always use, and for cleaning the tongue, is presented in triplicate of different colors so that three family members have their own.
There are also special attachments: for cleaning braces and for cleaning periodontal pockets. They are in one copy.
I quote from the seller's website:
The Irrigator WaterPik WP-100 includes 8 nozzles: 3 standard irrigator nozzles, 3 tongue cleaning nozzles, 1 periodontal nozzle and 1 orthodontic nozzle.

[Cake,]

Cake, I'm really looking forward to the result of your showdown with the blue button. Waterpeak is not available to Ukrainian consumers. The choice is between Brown and Aquajet.

Well, I came to you with a report.
I pulled the Aquajet back. For the purity of the experiment, I brought a transformer from work - what if it was these days that there was a reduced voltage that prevents the device from working with full efficiency? I plugged it in, poked the button with the blue ... nope ...
I collected Aquajet and dragged it to the clinic to the orthodontist (I took WaterPick -70 from a friend in this clinic for a test) I sat down in a chair and asked the doctor to prototype the device.
Doctor's resume: The Aquadget device is more likely for prevention. He's too weak for any kind of treatment. If there are no problems with the gums and only daily care is required, then Aquadget will do. If crowns, braces, bridges, implants in the mouth or the diagnosis of "periodontal disease" or "gingivitis" - then Aquadget is no longer an assistant. This is indirectly confirmed by the fact that in Aquadget all attachments are the same, and in Water Peak - 3 are different. For different purposes. Right there, in the clinic, I was turned on a demo disc, in which they told me about WaterPick. It can wash gingival pockets up to 6mm deep with a paradontological attachment. In Aquadget, not a word about it at all ...
My subjective feelings. Imagine being stroked vigorously on the back. And then they had a good massage. And after the massage the skin .. no, it doesn’t hurt ... well, I don’t know how to say .... So, while working with Aquadget, I felt that the gums were simply stroked thoroughly. And with WaterPick, I got a very sensitive massage.
By the way, the doctor said that to irrigate the mouth with water is to use 50% of the device's capabilities. It is advisable to buy herbs in bags and brew. Or buy ready-made mouth rinses (Stomatofit, FluorDent, Lakolyut, etc.). They include the same components.
As for OralBi ... I don't even know ... the situation is facilitated by that. that it is sold in the store. rather than at the pharmacy, it's easier to return. Although who knows ... Well, at least you can insist in the store to be checked with water ...
She told her friend that in Ukraine there is a problem to buy WaterPick, she replied that there probably are dental exhibitions or seminars, in large dental clinics it is possible to agree to bring them from the base. She bought her WaterPick at the exhibition. In April he will buy it for me. Aquajet is still written off "as a gift".
This is my opinion, please do not be offended by the owners of Aquadgets. And they will be offended. I know, I myself am wildly annoyed. when someone speaks against my "Delongy 125S" !!!!

My sister came here.I showed her the irrigator, they say I have two pockets in my gums ... She already jumped up. He says you need to tighten your pockets. That she also had and she pulled them up. Then the conversation was in a commanding tone:
- You go to the pharmacy. You buy propolis tincture. Dilute with water and get a white emulsion. You wet a cotton swab and make a type of pad in your pockets. In three weeks, the pockets will tighten. Just don't stretch your pockets with this cotton wool.

I bought a tincture of propolis. I read the instructions. No dilution with water is mentioned. It is written that in case of periodontal diseases, rinse after cleaning ...
I poured the entu tincture into the irrigator ... Have you ever tried to rinse your mouth with pure alcohol? Me not. But after this experiment with propolis tincture poured into an irrigator, I imagine it. And it seemed to me that the tincture can easily clog the nozzle of the irrigator. I washed the irrigator.

She took out a cotton swab. She took dental floss. I don't know how anyone has it, but my cotton wool with propolis tincture is not attached to the dental floss. No way.

In short, there are pockets in the gums, there is a tincture of propolis. But how to shove the second into the first ...

Hello! Did anyone compare two irrigators: the Waterpik WP-100 and the Braun Oral-B ProfessionalCare OxyJet? The price is about the same, but in terms of the quality of cleaning the gums, which is better?

[Natulchik]

I have been using an irrigator (WaterPik WP-100) for a week.
I am writing a report:
In addition to the cleanliness of the mouth, there were noticeable improvements in gum health. The bleeding has practically stopped. If in the first days of use the irrigator turned on only 4 power (there are 10 in total), now it has switched to 10.
And all this in such a short time.
For washing, I use a weak sea salt solution with the addition of a few drops of hydrogen peroxide.

Natulchik
Hardly anyone has used two devices. So choose for yourself.

OralBi claims some kind of "turboflow with microbubbles" and even puts up a picture showing this "turbo nozzle" and microbubble technology. Maybe a publicity stunt, or maybe a breakthrough in technology.But this irrigator is sold in household appliances stores, not in pharmacies ... it makes me think ... But the nozzles are also different from them ... fig knows it ...
No, tuned in for WaterPeak! The design is luxurious and the possibilities are "with a margin" - we are not getting younger, sores are only growing, and crowns and bridges are full of mouths: (Thanks to the Soviet clinic with cement unpolished fillings

OralBi claims some kind of "turboflow with microbubbles" and even puts up a picture showing this "turbo nozzle" and microbubble technology.

My irrigator has two bubble modes (micro or not micro, I don't know). That is, I can only supply water, but I can supply water with air ... And my flow is not turbo (turbulent), but lami (laminar). Anyway, in order for the flow from the irrigator to come out turbulent ... it should not have such a long nose ...
I am translating. If you release a stream from the irrigator onto the bathroom wall opposite and it (the stream) is thin and long - the movement is close to laminar. And if not even close to a jet, it is turbulent. So why is there a turbulent flow in the irrigator?

It seems that I have a question with Waterpick. 1025 hryvnia is worth. My husband, strange to say, got carried away by this ... For better or for better? ...

[LenaV07]

LenaV07 , while no attendance.

They got me dumbfounded today. Hopefully not final. They offered to bring an irrigator to a personal meeting in the evening, and to meet on the street. This all very confused me, although the seller, in principle, should be quite reliable, recommended by dentists. What about the guarantee? And you also need to try how the irrigator works? The questions are not rhetorical. Owners of Waterpeaks, Cake, Nadezhda, respond!

[Freken Bock]

Freken Bock , you infected me with this Waterpeak.
I called my dentist, she turns out to be using it. And VERY happy, she said that she did not see an alternative to him. Before the price jump, I bought it for UAH 300. I want to "fall on her tail."

[Freken Bock]

Freken Bock
Qween
Girls, let's each look for opportunities in their city, and then help each other to buy. A?
I have a question here. I have been looking closely at the OralBi station for a long time. Toothbrush and irrigator, 2 in 1. If I understood correctly, then the Waterpeak is only an irrigator and a nozzle with bristles is not a brush?

[LenaV07]

LenaV07, there is as if the brush is in 100 models.
And in my city, Waterpeak is missing 100%. I want to go the other way.

[Qween]

Girls, I will give out passwords and attendances, just let everything work out for me, so as not to whistle in vain. Qween, there are no brushes in the 100 Waterpeak 100%: three replaceable nozzles for ordinary ones, 3 for cleaning the tongue, one for braces and one for gingival pockets. Price $ 90 - $ 100. I solemnly swear to tell you everything in detail. Hope tomorrow.

[Freken Bock]

Mine will crack. Now she's just still at work.

But, tomorrow he will bring to work a very informative German book on this topic, so that I prepare mentally and in general. Then - discussion.

And then the purchase is not far off. This is my dream for now.

Freken Bock , really looking forward to it.

[Freken Bock]

Qween
If I understand correctly, then the Waterpeak is just an irrigator and a nozzle with bristles is not a brush?

Bristle brush - for cleaning braces. OralBi 2 in 1 is, in principle, a very nice thing. but the question is "what is the pressure of the jet?" And this is the cornerstone of the choice! I liked everything about Aquadget, but the trickle is weak and there is little sense. And in Waterpeak-70 it was impossible to endure the strongest jet in general - as if they were poking an awl into the gums. On the penultimate-krovischscha in different directions In short. all week smoothly passed from the first to the second speed. They didn't even aim further ... Then they had to give it back ...
Freken Bock. I don’t know how to check the irrigator when we meet it on the street, it cannot be turned on without water. Yes, and in the bottom of the tank there is a small rubber plug, you need to remove it carefully and not lose it later. You can only check the completeness and NOTHING more ...
About OralBi. This "professional center" is sold at a hardware store. I think. you can buy a bottle of mineral water without gas in advance and insist that it be poured and started with you. If the water pressure suits you, take it. But until you put it in your mouth, how do you know? At least on hand then direct, if the maximum pressure hits "almost painful" then you can buy.

My irrigator has two bubble modes (micro or not micro, I don't know). That is, I can only supply water, but I can supply water with air ... And my flow is not turbo (turbulent), but lami (laminar). Anyway, in order for the flow from the irrigator to come out turbulent ... it should not have such a long nose ...
I am translating. If you release a stream from the irrigator onto the bathroom wall opposite and it (the stream) is thin and long - the movement is close to laminar. And if not even close to a jet, it is turbulent. So why is there a turbulent flow in the irrigator?

My Brown (the one with the "center") has a long nose, which delivers a thin powerful stream to clean the space between the teeth, is recessed, and then the second mode is activated, from several streams - to massage the gums.

[dopleta]

dopleta , I would very much like to hear your subjective opinion about Brown. Is it with an electric brush or just an irrigator? have you been using it for a long time? How many stages of water pressure are there? Are there results of using the device? How often are other tips used?

Cake, I wrote about it in the 2nd, 32nd and 45th posts, but I will repeat it with pleasure. This is the Oral-B Braun Professional Care Dental Center. In prefabricated form, this is an electric brush, an irrigator and a container for rinsing liquid for 600 ml. The kit includes additional brush heads (I can't say exactly how many of them were originally, because.for 2 years of use, of course, I already bought new ones), 2 additional nozzles for the irrigator (2-functional - for cleaning between teeth and massaging the gums), a nozzle with plastic needles inserted into it (10 pcs) - "like" a toothpick, a nozzle on a brush with bristles gathered in a sharp cone for thorough cleaning between teeth, a nozzle for cleaning the tongue and several multi-colored rings so that each member of the family can quickly distinguish their brush. It seems that I have not forgotten anything. Yes, in the very center there are storage compartments for all this. The irrigator has 5 degrees of water pressure. It's more than enough for me, 3rd. They bought it on the advice of a dentist to combat periodontal disease - unfortunately, in St. Petersburg this is almost a universal problem due to unimportant water. At first, the gums began to vomit even more, but we were warned that it should be so. But very quickly we completely forgot about it. Of the nozzles I use: an irrigator - all the time, a tongue brush - often, a tapered one - rarely (but it is necessary for people with crowns, bridges and implants), a toothpick nozzle - never. Seems to have answered in full detail? I repeat - I don't understand how I lived without him before.

In general, they brought me WaterPick.
Impressions from the purchase are twofold On the one hand - I received the item I wanted, quickly and with home delivery, and on the other ... - the feeling of some kind of understatement does not leave. In short, the device seems to be under warranty for 1 year, but at the same time there is no warranty card, the only piece of paper (you cannot name it otherwise) is an invoice, which indicates the name and price, and not a single name of the seller, seal or stamp, only scrawl (signature ). I have a lot of all kinds of equipment bought in Internet stores, but Schaub is ... I ask what to do if (t-t-t) breaks down, the answer (attention) "call Zhenya, you are in the database, he will fix everything"
It turns out that I bought it at my own peril and risk. It remains to be hoped that he will plow for a long time and without breakdowns.
Among the shortcomings (at my first and inexperienced glance): it is not mounted on the wall (and I hoped, where could he get a separate shelf?), There are attachments for 3 family members, but only 2 sets fit into the top box ( and where to put the 3rd).

And now, attention, a question for experienced "irrigators": how often do you need to use this miracle, every day? AND together or instead toothbrush? Well, can you tell me something else clever?

[Rusya]

Rusya, well, finish me off, a control shot - IS IT WORTH?

Seriously, with the purchase of you! Does not replace the toothbrush. I have another "run" - looking after an electric brush. Guard Toothbrush for a consultation.

[Hope]

and this miracle, in fact, how often should you use it, every day? AND together or instead toothbrush? Well, can you tell me something else clever?

IMHO
1. Every day;
2. In front of the toothbrush (that is, together);
3. You can do not just water. Hope wrote about saline solution with peroxide. I also add ... when that ...

And I - after the toothbrush. And I am convinced that after it, oh, how much "garbage" remains. And I also like to add some elixir to the water.

[Rusya]

Rusya
Well, you give, I thought that you had already studied everything and therefore quickly bought ...
The irrigator is used in addition to the brush. It's like flossing, like ... First brushing your teeth, and then an irrigator. Ideally, use after meals. Well, that's ideal. And so, twice a day if there is time, and if there is no time in the morning, then it is necessary in the evening. You can use healing solutions, just be careful not to clog. This is if herbal tinctures. Be careful with the pressure, start with the smallest one, do not damage the gums. Look, above I gave a link to the site of the Waterpeaks themselves, there is a video ... for general development you can take a look. In general, there is quite a lot of information on the internet on irrigators and how to use them.
I also asked a question about warranty repairs. I was told that they are repairing themselves, if anything, since in Ukraine only they are the office. Waterpeak representatives. Maybe you will have time to go to the exhibition at ExpoPlaza (14.04-17.04)? I think that there it will be possible to obtain useful information on all questions of interest to you. And tell us

[dopleta]

Silly question, probably, but still. dopletahow to use an electric brush correctly? Do we bring it and lightly press it to the teeth or do you still need to move it?

[Freken Bock]

Freken Bock
It seems to me that email. you need to take the brush Brown. While I was "digging" the Internet on irrigators, I also read reviews on brushes. People seem to agree that the Browns are better. I wanted to buy a Brown Center, and then I decided to split and take the irrigator and brush separately. Brown has such fancy ones, but they don't cost 3 kopecks ...

[Freken Bock]

Thanks everyone! I thought that along with the brush ...

Freken Bock, 775 UAH (just don't get upset, okay?)

LenaV07, no, well, I read something, of course, but it is always more useful to ask the direct users, in fact, I realized that very few people sell them in Ukraine, therefore they did not arise under the guarantee, otherwise I would not take them at all. I hope for the decency of the seller and the uninterrupted operation of the device And I would love to go to the exhibition, but I can't get to Levoberezhka with my child

[dopleta]

Silly question, probably, but still. dopletahow to use an electric brush correctly? Do we bring it and lightly press it to the teeth or do you still need to move it?

Freken Bock, I'm moving. IMHO, this turns out to be more effective - it seems that she spins herself, and I also stimulate her.

[LenaV07]

LenaV07, I'm just looking at Brown. Most advanced, with a 3D effect, almost at the price of an irrigator.

Rusya, I'm not upset! I'm waiting for your feedback.

dopleta, understandably.

[Rusya]

Rusya
Well, in the same place, it is designed for a family, and then, a loving wife must conduct tests on herself, and then competently hand them over. To return the original view and "so that no one would guess ..." I drive my husband to dentistry, and he says: "First you ..."
Is it metro station "Nivki" this is the Left Bank? Here is the location of Exoplaz 🔗

I look at all the irrigators. I choose between Water-Pik WP-70 and WATERPIK WP-100
Since there are four of us, 70 is more suitable, but doubts are plaguing ... maybe 100 is still better, more powerful. Help me decide.

[Boo Boo]

Boo Boo, both models have the same technical characteristics, the difference is obviously in design and some details. That. that the "seventieth" will not seem weak to you, I promise! I used it. At the highest pressure, he simply knocks out the crowns into the sink! A real jackhammer! The only thing that I didn’t like there was the pressure regulator on the handle. And in the "hundredth" - on the building. But, on the other hand, the "seventieth" has a capacity of 1000 ml, and in a hundredth - 600 ml.

[Cake, BooBu]

Cake, BooBumaybe the initial pressure is lower in the hundredth? And the attachments are separately available, you can buy it if necessary (this is me about the number of users in the family)

By the way, I already have an electric toothbrush Not for $ 100, of course. I am delighted, walking by character I am more prone to disappointment.

[Freken Bock]

70 is cheaper and 100 is prettier. Straight from the choice, my head is bursting.
Freken Bock Congratulations on your purchase.

[Freken Bock]

Freken Bockwhich brush did you buy? With a whitening attachment, or for prof. cleaning?

[Qween]

Qween, included a whitening brush. But I will definitely buy another one of these days.

Boo Boo, Thank you for your congratulations.

[Freken Bock]

Freken Bock , can you imagine, after a thorough consultation with my dentist, I decided not to buy an irrigator.
And email I want to look after the toothbrush. If it's not a secret, how much did you buy yours for?

[Qween]

Qween, 240 hryvnia. Although on the same showcase was exactly the same for 330. Only mine is in a box, and that one is in a blister. No differences were found, it is evident that the purchase price is different and the sellers are more or less decent. You know, after cleaning with this brush, I also think, what else is there for the irrigator to do? And there are also brushes with a 3D effect, as if moving in one direction, they soften the plaque, and in the other - they clean it off. But the irrigator was bought with thoughts of periodontitis and her husband.

How were you discouraged?

[Freken Bock]

Freken Bock , can you imagine, after a thorough consultation with my dentist, I decided not to buy an irrigator.

I would like to know the details, maybe we don't need it either.

But in a Brown's dental center, like Dopleta, in my opinion, just such a super-duper toothbrush is.

My dentist gave me a book to read, from one very famous bourgeois guy. In this book it is very clear that the irrigator (specifically, we are talking about Waterpeak) is intended for people with certain problems - gingivitis, periodontitis, etc. And in between stomatitis. procedures, these categories of citizens are strongly recommended to use an irrigator.
After I thoughtfully read this, then my dentist and I talked about this topic.

Now I think about the brush. In particular, I'm considering the Brown Center.

I also read that the electric brush is a temporary care product. Since it cleans and erases the enamel too intensively.
