Flush pockets clean

  Posted by: manpreet.boora      24th October 2017

The latest figures show that over 80 per cent of adults in England displayed some signs of periodontal disease, including deep pocketing of 4mm or more.
These deep pockets cannot be assessed by a toothbrush or most ‘standard’ cleaning aids, yet they provide the ideal environment for bacteria to grow and thrive.
The Water Flosser from Waterpik International, Inc. is ideal for patients with periodontal pockets. The pockets will be flushed clean, quickly and efficiently, providing a comfortable experience for the patient. Research showed the Waterpik Water Flosser to reduce bleeding by up to 81 per cent in periodontal patients.
Various different tips are available to suit the individual needs of the patients. For example, the Pik Pocket Tip is designed specifically to clean periodontal pockets and furcations. The soft rubber tip delivers a gentle, low-pressure rinse below the gumline, clinically proven to access up to 90 per cent of a 6mm periodontal pocket.
