How To Get The Most Out Of Your Hydro Floss

by

I just wrote a longer post about how to get the most out of your hydrofloss  here:

https://blog.toothygrinsstore.com/2013/01/how-to-get-most-out-of-your-hydro-floss.html

hydro-floss-oral-irrigatorThe hydrofloss is, in my opinion, one of the most powerful tools for home dental care that you can find.

Dental professionals will tell you that what you do at home is crucial.

If regular brushing and flossing were all that was needed, perhaps people wouldn’t have so many dental problems that they need treatment for?   Therefore, I think we can safely conclude that  brushing and flossing, while very important, may not be enough.

Therefore, I wrote this post about the Hydro Floss to help people figure out not only how to get the most out of their Hydro Floss but also how to measure their results – with the help of a hygienist or dentist.

I’ts a good read.

This really comes as NO surprise given the fact that I already have known for a long time that the Hydro Floss is a very special tool for home dental use.

Used correctly, often times it can help people prevent very expensive dental treatments.

I have my own experience and I hear from my customers about theirs frequently.

I am delighted that we have the Hydro Floss and I’m basically on a mission to make sure more people hear about it.

Why The Hydro Floss Is The Best Oral Irrigator

by

hydrofloss oral irrigatorI put a post up at the Toothy Grins Store blog about the Hydro Floss and I thought I would share it with you.

This really is the most powerful, in my opinion, irrigator.  Power doesn’t necessarily mean pressure.   In this case, power has to do with effectiveness.

How do you measure effectiveness?   In this case, I measure it as the machines ability to save you money, pain and expense.  This could apply to right now, in the future or both.

You owe it to yourself and your family to learn all that you can about this Machine:

How The Hydro Floss Is Different Than A Water Pik

by

hydrofloss oral irrigatorAt the ToothyGrinsStore  blog,  I wrote a very nice post that explains why the Hydro Floss is different than other oral irrigators.

You can find that information here:   https://blog.toothygrinsstore.com/2012/12/hydrofloss-is-different-than-water-pik.html

Speaking as the author of the book:  What You Should Know About Gum Disease  I can only tell you that this is an exceptional tool that I think every family should have.

If you have or want to prevent periodontal issues, this tool is perhaps one of the most helpful I have come across.   It has helped a tremendous amount of people over the last 20 years or so.

It is not like other irrigators.   I am on a kind of personal mission to help people understand what this tool is and what it can do for you.

Gum Disease Solution

Gum disease is a serious problem.  It afflicts far more people than you might imagine.   Perhaps you or your closest loved one are afflicted and do not yet know it.

Considering that gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss, it is a great idea to find out what your situation is.

Unfortunately,  many dentists do not focus on this area.

If your dentist or hygienist does not regularly (every appointment) measure your periodontal pocket depths and tell you what they are,  you may want to go to a periodonist.

A periodontist is s specialist who focuses on gum health and gum disease.

There is no cure.  There is only control of the problem.

However, the right kind of control can result in your gum tissue being considered healthy.

The risk is always present and one must remain diligent with one’s home care, but you can aim to get ALL of those periodontal pockets to 3 mm and below.

This is the ‘solution’.

 

Can You Just Kill The Bacteria?

Sure, you can.  But, they come right back.

Our constant exposure to the exterior environment makes this impossible to prevent.

Healthy colonies of bacteria should be the goal then.   Eating yogurt appears to help according to many Japanese researchers.

The  mouth is actually considered part of the ‘alimentary canal’.   The part of your body that is responsible for digesting food, eliminating waste and absorbing nutrients.

As such, it is completely colonized by bacteria.

When plaque forms on the teeth and gums,  it forms a shield against oxygen.  This provides a ‘ripe’ environment for the ‘wrong kind’ of bacteria to grow.  They will grow very fast under such a condition.

When the numbers get too large,  they will begin to secrete acidic toxins that can harm both your teeth and your gum tissue.

The daily disruption of plaque becomes necessary in order to eliminate the environment that gives these little creatures life.

Brushing, dental floss and hydroflossing  are methods that all break up plaque.  Again, daily disruption of plaque is an important part of preventing dental health problems!

The Book How To Stop Gum Disease In 4 Easy Steps

This isn’t really a book, it is more like a report and it discusses the most effective way that seems to produce results for a lot of people, to use your Hydro Floss

What You Should Know About Gum Disease

This is a much larger book available in both paperback and e-book form.   It discusses gum disease in very easy to understand, layman’s terms and decodes all of the dental jargon that has little to no value to non-dental professionals.

It removes the barrier to understanding and makes you a co-creator of your own dental health.   Without this information, it seems to me that, it would be difficult for any lay person to have an understanding of this problem.

This understanding gives you a better chance to protect your dental health, and should help you to prevent expensive and potentially painful dental procedures.   It should also help you to reduce the chances of having to get troublesome and expensive dental implants or dentures.

 

I wish you the best of luck in your journey (and that of your family) to obtain much better dental health, save a ton of money and have a happier and healthier mouth and body!

Here Is My Personal Story About Using The Hydro Floss

I had always been a little annoyed that my gums would bleed during dental cleanings. But, I thought it was normal and no one told me otherwise for years!

Then one day the hygienist and dentist decided that I would need what was called a SRP treatment or Scaling And Root Planing.

This was a shocker for me because no one explained that I was in any real danger. Nor had that dental office spent any time educating me about gum disease, which I finally figured out was the problem.

No previous diagnosis of this from my dentist.  I wasn’t given information at all in the past, except that I should think about ‘using mouthwash’ in addition to regular brushing.

The worst part of all, they wanted to do the SRP that day! Right away, I didn’t have time to think it over.

I don’t like being pushed, which is what it felt like.

I decided to say: “No”.  After all, I could always have it done later if it was necessary.

I started doing my research and I began to understand a lot more about  gum disease.  Did you know that about 75% of people have some right now?  As in my experience, most people have no clue that they have this problem.

They won’t know until it is time for expensive dental work to be performed.  Or, when they lose a tooth.

I have talked to enough people over the last few years to know that my story is NOT  at all  unique. Many people have similar or even worse ‘wake-up calls.’

Searching For The ‘Right’ Answers

I continued looking for solutions and tried some things like essential oils, oil pulling, Vitamin C and Co-Enzyme Q-10, but nothing was really having an impact.  In fact, it seemd that some things may have made it worse.

Then one day I read about the Hydro Floss with its magnetic technology. It frankly sounded a bit strange to me at the time.

But, I figured I needed to do something, because that Scaling and Root Planing is nothing that I wanted to experience.

I used the Hydro Floss ‘religiously’ (more than I actually needed to as  I later found out) for five months!

When I went back to the same dentist she looked at my mouth and I could see the look of amazement on her face as well as that of the hygienist.

Finally, the dentist said after several minutes of staring into my mouth, “Whatever you are doing, keep it up. You don’t need that treatment anymore.”

 

The Journal of Clinical Periodontology published two studies on the Hydro Floss

The first was in May of 1993 and the second was in April of 1998. The second researcher, I have been told, intended to prove the first set of results wrong.

To her surprise, she actually obtained slightly better results than the first study.

What were those results? Simple, they showed that the Hydro Floss was about (not exactly) 50% better at reducing tartar and plaque build up between office visits than irrigators tested without the magnetic technology.

Tartar and plaque are where gum disease really gets its strength.

In scientific research a figure like 45 or 50% is considered “statistically significant”. That basically means it is outside the range where you might suspect the results were ‘accidental’ or perhaps ‘not meaningful’.

These two studies were both published in the professional journal of periodontists mentioned above.
