Repeat: Please Do Not Put Baking Soda Into Your Hydro Floss
I know that there are more than a few good healers and doctors out there who tell people about the power of the Hydro Floss. Some are very public about it and have a large audience.
I commend them greatly for that because it is truly a service to public health when more people understand what the HydroFloss oral irrigator is and what it can do for them. I also know that many people, after discovering the results they obtain, want to tell others about this wonderful tool.
When their dentist or hygienist tells them how much healthier their gums are looking, it is exciting. To know that you will avoid expensive treatments and possibly avoid the loss of teeth as well is not just a relief, it is a victory!
I agree that the Hydro Floss is exactly what nearly every family needs. I do NOT agree when well meaning people tell people to put baking soda into their Hydro Floss.
The Reasons
First of all, it is not necessary to do that. The Hydro Floss is a powerful tool that works well on tap water alone. You do not have to put anything extra into it. You can read my guide to more fully understand the reasons why.
Second, it can damage the machine. Without the Hydro Floss working, the person who own's it loses all of the benefits.
If you Must Use Baking Soda
If you must use baking soda, why not just simply put a teaspoon in a full cup of water and make a mouthwash out of it?
You can use it separately from your Hydro Floss. Just do not put it IN your Hydro Floss it can destroy the machine.
I also feel compelled to say that you should not brush your teeth with baking soda, I will explain why in a separate post sometime.
In any case, you definitely should not put baking soda in your Hydro Floss.
Thanks again to those people with a large audience who are telling people about the Hydro Floss.
I hope that I adequately explained why you should NOT use or tell people to put baking soda in their Hydro Floss machines.
In actuality, you don't need to. You can read how to get the most out of your Hydro Floss AND measure your results objectively with this guide that I personally wrote.
