Toothbrush Tip

Place the toothbrush tip in mouth with the brush head on the tooth at the gum line. The toothbrush tip can be used with or without toothpaste. Turn the Water Flosser on so water flows through the tip. Using a light pressure (bristles should not bend) vibrate the brush back and forth with very short strokes – much like you would with a manual toothbrush. Repeat on adjacent teeth. Water will flow through the brush, to help simultaneously clean and rinse the tooth surface.

Plaque SeekerTM Tip

Direct the jet stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline. Close lips slightly to avoid splashing but allow water to flow freely from mouth into sink. Start in the molar (back teeth) area working toward the front teeth. 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. Continue until all areas around and between the teeth both inside and outside, top and bottom have been cleaned.

Sonic Tip

Direct the stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline. Slightly close lips to avoid splashing but allow water to flow freely from mouth into the sink. For best results, start in the molar area (back teeth) working toward the front teeth. Glide tip along gumline and pause briefly between teeth for gentle gum massage. Continue until all areas around and between the teeth have been cleaned.

Using Mouthwash and

Other Solutions

Your Waterpik® Water Flosser can be used to deliver mouthwash and antibacterial solutions. Ask your dental professional to recommend the appropriate solution for you. Note: use of some antibacterial solutions could shorten the life of your Waterpik® Water Flosser.

After using any special solution in the reservoir, take a moment after every use to rinse the unit. Partially fill the reservoir with warm tap water. Aim the jet tip into your sink. Turn on the unit and let it run until empty. This will help keep the tip from clogging and help your unit to last longer.

Clean the product when necessary by using a soft cloth and mild non-abrasive cleanser.

The Waterpik Technologies WP-100 is a popular water flosser designed to improve oral hygiene by effectively removing plaque and debris between teeth and along the gum line. This device is particularly favored for its efficiency and ease of use, making it an excellent addition to any dental care routine.

One of the standout features of the WP-100 is its powerful water pulsation system. This system generates a pulsating stream of water at a customizable pressure, allowing users to adjust it according to their comfort levels. With a pressure range that typically spans from 10 to 100 PSI, users can find the perfect setting for their unique dental needs, making it gentle enough for sensitive gums while still providing a thorough clean.

The WP-100 is equipped with multiple tips designed for various cleaning purposes. These include a classic jet tip for general use, a toothbrush tip that combines water flossing with brushing, a plaque seeker tip designed for those with braces or implants, and a perio tip for periodontal pockets. This versatility makes the WP-100 suitable for a wide range of users, from those with braces to individuals looking for enhanced plaque removal.

Another important characteristic of the WP-100 is its reservoir capacity. The device features a large 22-ounce water tank that provides up to 90 seconds of continuous flossing. This extended use means users can clean multiple areas of their mouth without needing to refill the reservoir, enhancing convenience during use.

In terms of design, the WP-100 boasts a compact and sleek profile that can easily fit into most bathroom spaces. Its on/off switch on the handle allows for convenient control, enabling users to easily pause water flow as needed during flossing. Additionally, the unit comes with a rotating tip that can pivot 360 degrees, ensuring users can reach every corner of their mouth without straining.

The WP-100 also adheres to Waterpik's commitment to quality and durability. It is designed for long-lasting use, with a built-in transformer that ensures safe operation, reducing the risk of electrical complications.

Overall, the Waterpik Technologies WP-100 stands out for its effective cleaning capabilities, customizable settings, and user-friendly design, making it a valuable tool for anyone looking to achieve optimal oral health.
