"My Dentist Recommended the Hydro Floss"


I hear this on a regular basis.  Someone calls to order a HydroFloss because their dentist or hygienist told them to get a Hydro Floss and start using it.

Sidenote: [ If you are a dental office that wants your patients to have the Hydro Floss - consider sending them to ToothyGrinsStore.com ]

Why do they recommend this particular tool?  Why not recommend just any irrigator,  like the ones you can buy at the local drugstore? 

The reason they do recommend the HF is  because they know that it works particularly well.   Of course, there is no one thing the works 100% of the time  - that would not be very likely.   But for many people the Hydro Floss has worked.

What Do You Mean By "Worked"?  

 Many dentist and hygienists have seen that their patients end up with a reduction in periodontal pocket depths.   3mm and below is generally speaking, considered 'normal' and 'healthy'.   While above 3mm, again, generally speaking is considered 'not normal' or 'unhealthy'.

Many people have deeper than 3mm pocketing and this is, generally speaking, indicative of gum disease.

With these deeper than 3mm pockets it is possible for the bacteria to achieve a high enough presence that they  begin to erode the periodontal (gum) tissue that surrounds a tooth.  This can ultimately lead to loose and lost teeth.

So, having deeper than 3mm pockets is basically the problem that you would like to prevent or fix.

Again, nothing works 100% of the time for everyone.  Your situation should always be monitored by our dentist.  They should be measuring these pocket depths on every visit and telling you what those numbers are.   Follow your dentists advice.

The problem is that 'most' people have gum disease, they just haven't been told yet.   Often times, they are told when it is time for an expensive treatment.  Now that you know about periodontal pocket depths, perhaps you will be better equipped to prevent the problem or deal with it when it occurs.
