Support Safety And Efficacy Of The Waterpik™ Water Flosser

Did you know there are more than eighty research studies that support the safety and efficacy of the Waterpik™ water flosser? These studies have been conducted at university- and research-based facilities by experienced investigators and published in peer-reviewed journals. Backed by more than six decades of scientific evidence, the Waterpik™ water flosser is the first in its class to have been awarded the prestigious American Dental Association (ADA) Seal of Acceptance. 

A recent clinical study compared the efficacy of water flossing versus string flossing.  Lyle et al. found water flossing to be up to twice as effective for reduction of whole mouth bleeding and removing plaque. When comparing the efficacy of water flossing versus string flossing in the proximal region water flossing was up to seven times as effective for removing plaque, up to twice as effective at reducing bleeding and 90% more effective at reducing gingivitis. This study concluded that water flossing is more effective than string flossing for improving gingival health over a four-week period.
