Taking Your Pick - Your Guide to Choosing a Water Pick

A water pick is a dental cleaning device that is used to penetrate deep into crevices in the teeth and gums. It deep-cleans teeth and gums by using pressurized water, mouthwashes or antibacterial oral solutions emitted through a number of tips (standard, rubber, and cannula) with holes. These tips are then focused over teeth and gums to remove any food debris lodged, making water picks ideal for those wearing crowns, braces, and other dental fittings. But besides general cleaning, it is also used to massage gums and prevent gingivitis as well as the build-up of plaque and other periodontal diseases.

Free Sports Picks

There are generally two types of water picks to choose from: portable and home-use. Ideal for people who are on-the-go, a portable water pick runs on several batteries and doesn't use water tanks and long cords. It can produce up to 1, 600 pulses in one minute and may be used for cleaning teeth instantly after meals or before important meetings, for example. Home-use water picks, on the other hand, are fairly large devices that produce as many as 1,200 water jets per minute. Great for massaging the gums and removing debris extensively, they have control buttons that pause functions and regulate water pressure to your liking.

Buying tips

When you're in the market for a water pick, look for one that comes with additional features such as a built-in tongue cleaner to provide you better overall oral cleaning. In addition, make sure that it may be used with other solutions aside from water, like mouthwashes. These two things will ensure that you are able to more thoroughly clean your teeth and gums. Also, look for water picks that come with variable settings for water pressure. It is possible that default settings may be too strong or too weak for your liking so it is important that you be given the option to change it.
