Why Waterflossing

Dental work, orthodontic braces, certain medical conditions, and other factors can make maintaining good dental care challenging.

It may be a surprising fact, but almost all dental disease is preventable. Even if you have a family history of cavities and gum disease, you can take steps to prevent and end the cycle. Most of us can avoid cavities and gum disease with the right habits.

Dental floss. Is there any stronger love/hate relationship? Dental professionals love it – patients hate it. As a dental hygienist and life-long flosser, I’ve lived this relationship. I thought flossing was easy because it was easy for me. But it isn’t easy for most people.
