to deliver water or anti-
bacterial solutions deep
into periodontal pockets.

Pocket™tip, set
the unit to the
lowest pressure
setting only. Place the soft tip against a tooth at
a 45-degree angle and gently place the tip under
the gumline, into the pocket. Turn the unit on and
continue tracing along the gumline.
Tongue Cleaner Tip
To use the tongue cleaner tip, set
to lowest pressure setting, place tip
in the center/middle of your tongue
about half way back and start the
Water Flosser. Pull forward with light
pressure. Increase pressure as you prefer.
Prime Unit (First Time Use Only)
Set pressure control dial on base to high (pressure
setting No. 10), point the handle and tip into sink.

dial on the base of the
unit to the lowest setting
(pressure setting No.
1) for first-time use.
Gradually increase
pressure over time to the setting you prefer – or as
instructed by your dental professional.
Recommended Technique
For best results, start with
the back teeth and work
toward the front teeth.
Glide tip along gumline and pause briefly between
teeth. Continue until you have cleaned the inside and
outside of both the upper and lower teeth.
Lean over sink. Direct the stream
at a 90-degree angle to your
gumline with tip in mouth.
Slightly close lips to avoid
splashing, but allow water to
flow freely from mouth. Set

and turn water
ON (I). Begin

to a full reservoir of warm water. Point the handle
and tip into sink. Turn unit ON and run until reservoir
is empty. Rinse by repeating with a full reservoir of
clean warm water.
This process should be done every 1 to 3 months to
ensure optimal performance.

hoses and handles can be purchased from your
local distributor, which can be found at
www.waterpik.co.uk.

tip, gently glide tip along
gumline, pausing briefly
to lightly brush area
between teeth and all around orthodontic bracket,
before proceeding to the next tooth.
Plaque Seeker®Tip
To use the Plaque
Seeker®tip, place
the tip close to the
teeth so that the
bristles are gently touching the teeth. Gently glide
tip along gumline, pausing briefly between teeth to
gently brush and allow the water to flow between
the teeth.
Using Mouthwash and
Other Solutions
Your Waterpik
®
Water
Flosser can be used to
deliver mouthwash and
antibacterial solutions. After
