Special Tips

Pik Pocket® Tip

The Pik Pocket® Tip delivers water or anti-bacterial solutions deep into periodontal pockets.

To use the Pik Pocket® Tip, lean low over your sink and 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 to the lowest pressure setting and clean by gently following gumline, inserting tip in between teeth. Continue tracing along the gumline until the reservoir is empty.

Tongue Cleaner Tip

Place the tongue cleaner on your tongue and start the Dental Water Jet – use the lowest pressure setting, increase as comfortable. Gently place the tongue cleaner in the center/midline of your tongue about half way back and with light pressure pull forward.

Orthodontic Tip

Start on the last molar (back tooth). Aim tip at a 90 degree angle to the tooth at the gumline. Gently glide tip along gumline, pausing briefly to lightly brush area between teeth and all around orthodontic bracket, before proceeding to the next tooth. Continue process until you have cleaned and irrigated the inside and outside of both the upper and lower teeth.

For optimal results it is recommended that orthodontic tips are replaced after 6 months of use.
