F.A.Q

What is a Water Flosser?

Water Flossers create a stream of pressurized water that is directed into the mouth. The stream of water is used to effectively remove food particles, plaque, and bacteria from between teeth and gumline.

Incorporating a Water Flosser into your routine can ultimately lead to healthier teeth and gums!

Are Electric Toothbrushes better than manual toothbrushes?

Electric Toothbrushes can be more effective than manual toothbrushes! Electric Toothbrushes are effective at removing plaque and reducing the risk of gum disease. They can also be helpful for people with mobility issues or orthodontic appliances, such as braces!

I don't like flossing with normal floss. How can I take care of my gums?

Our Floss Picks are the perfect answer!

Floss picks are an alternative to traditional floss for those looking to incorporate flossing in their routine! They’re disposable and convenient for on-the-go oral hygiene.

It is important to floss and Floss Picks can be the solution to get healthier gums!

Why should I use a Tongue Scraper?

Tongue Scrapers remove bacteria and debris from the deeper crevices of the tongue.

In addition to other Hygiene Essentials, using a Tongue Scraper will work to eliminate bacteria in your mouth. They will leave you feeling fresh & clean!
