My HydroFloss Is Slow, What Should I Do?

What To Do.  

Did your HydroFloss slow down overnight or was it gradual, over time?  

If it was overnight,  it may be just a matter of cleaning the area between the reservoir and the base.  I would definitely try that first.  Reseating the reservoir may make a big difference. 

If the slowness happened over time, and got progressively worse over time,  you might want to try a new pump.   (video instruction on installation on that page) 

Preventive

Be sure to run 1/4 cup of white vinegar through your HydroFloss once-per-month  and twice if you have 'hard water'.   This will help to keep the machine clean over time.  

When to get a new machine

As a general rule of thumb, if your machine is over 3 years old and needs a part, I suggest considering a new HydroFloss.  

If you insist on getting parts, you can find all the parts we have here.    (be aware, there is a page 2 on the parts, many people miss that second page). 

I hope that helps.

Do You Have That Plastic White Piece For The Hydro Floss?

Answer: 

Yes,  here is picture of it: 

If that is the piece you are looking for, you can find it here.

Some people will call it the plastic white piece, the plug, the prong, the valve.  Many people will refer to it differently.   That is why I put the picture here.  You can see it for yourself.

Will This Fit My HydroFloss

If you have a genuine Hydro Floss it will fit it.  The model has not changed much over the years.  So, if you have a real HydroFloss, this part will fit it.

What If I Need The Whole Tank? 

You can buy the entire hydrofloss reservoir here if you would like to.   Here is a picture of it.   You will see that it comes with both the plastic white piece as well as a rubber o-ring for the bottom and a lid for the top:

You can see that the reservoir comes complete with the parts mentioned above.    Will it fit your Hydro Floss?    Yes, if you have a real Hydro Floss this part will fit it.

If you need the reservoir, you can get it here. 

What If I Just Need That Rubber O-ring?  

No problem,  here is a pictture so that you can be sure it is what you want:

 

If this is the part you are looking for, you can get it here. 

 Would It Be Better If I Just Get A New Hydro Floss?

If your Hydro Floss is under 3 years old, you can go for the part.   If it is between 3-5 years old, it's a dice roll.   You are probably safer to go with a brand new Hydro Floss.

If it is over 5 years old.  No question for me,  get a new one. 

You can see a picture of a Hydro Floss here.

Do You Have More Parts?    

Yes, we do.  You can check them out here. 

What About The Hose? 

Yes, we have that too.   The handle and the hose come together as one piece.  You cannot get them separately.  Here is a picture:

If this is the part you are looking for, you can get it here

This will fit a genuine hydro floss regardless of how old it is. 

Jet Tips?  

Yes,  there are regular jet tips

Pocket pal jet tips

Sulcus Jet Tips

Cannula Jet Tips

You can click on each link above to see pictures of each item.  Again, if you have a genuine Hydro Floss Oral Irrigator, these parts will fit it.  

We have lids for the reservoir and Hydro Floss tongue scrapers too!   

A Powerful Device

I personally think of the Hydro Floss as a powerful device that can help one to gain and maintain periodontal health (gum health) 

Because gum disease is something that about 75% of people have some of (probably more)  then it would be a good idea for every family to become educated on this issue. 

I believe the Hydro Floss when used properly could really give you better chances of improving your gum health and preventing expensive treatments in the future. 

If you have questions, you can call us and ask at the number on the top of your screen.

How Do I Fix My Hydro Floss?

Answer:  You can find parts here.  

Hint:  You CAN scroll below the top picture and there IS more than one page of parts available.

I've received calls from people who couldn't find a part,  they did not realize there was another page. 

This is for do-it-your-self types who are interested in either saving money or in the thrill of completing a project.

In either case you can get your genuine Hydro Floss Parts here.   

Repair kits can be found here.  

These parts are not copies or replicas, they are genuine parts for a genuine Hydro Floss. 

If you are not that keen on taking one apart, there is always the option of getting a brand new Hydro Floss. 

For the benefits derived for dental health.  The cost is nothing compared to the potential savings in hefty dental bills over the years.

The cost of an implant is usually over $2000 in the US.   A gum graft can be five or eight hundred dollars.   

Scaling and root planing treatment?  About $1500 for the whole mouth in the US. 


Of course, no one can guarantee results for 100% of the people, that would be impossible.

But you CAN measure these results according to the periodontal pocket depths taken from your dentist.   Read about properly using a Hydro Floss here.  

Need a power converter for your Hydro Floss?  I suggest this one when traveling to 220V countries.

Hydro Floss Hose Assembly

This is the Hydro Floss hose assembly.   I typically caution people to not try to install this unless they have some degree of mechanical ability.    For example, car mechanics and engineers seem to do well with this part. 

I have personally tried to replace it and I was unable to without causing further damage to the HF.  So, I really want people who have confidence in their skill to install this part to be the only people who will purchase it.  

We say that up front and we don't take returns on this.   Therefore,  if you want to take a chance at repairing your HydroFloss with this part, the risk is on you.

We also do not provide any instructions whatsoever.   However, there was one man who wrote about how he repaired his in the customer reviews for this part.    This part can be found here.

If you are not sure or do not want to risk a self-repair I do suggest that you consider getting a new Hydro Floss which will come with a one year warranty.   You can find one here.

The cost of the Hydro Floss is such that it usually pays for itself extremely quickly.   When you consider the cost of an implant or dental surgery, prevention becomes very cost effective.   Perhaps you can spend thousands on implants, crowns and other repairs!  

Common Reasons For The Hose To Break

It may sound strange but perhaps the most common reason for the hose to be damaged is due to someone setting a curling iron near it.  

Another relatively common one is a cat's claw.  They can pierce the hose leaving it with a leak.

We offer this part for those who would like to make the repair and are capable of doing so.

If you have any questions, as always you can call Toothy Grins Store at 1-888-586-6849.
