There are many different types of water flossers, and each one has its own specific uses. Before we get into how to use a water flosser, it’s important to understand exactly what type you have. There are 2 main types of water flossers: manual and motorized. A manual water flosser is the most common type and is connected to a pipe and pressure tank. This type of flosser is by far the easiest to use. You just need to fill the tank up with water, connect the flosser to the outlet, and turn it on. Most water flossers have an automatic shutoff feature that automatically vomits the water back into the tank when you’re done flossing. If you choose to use a manual water flosser, you’ll need to use a soft flossing technique to prevent hurting your teeth. If you have sensitive teeth, harder floss may be better for you.
