Hydro Floss: How It Saved a Pregnant Woman with Braces

A Testimonial from a Pregnant Woman with Braces

“I discovered Hydro Floss at a very interesting time in my life: I was pregnant, and I had braces too. Hot, I know! You may not know that pregnancy can cause a myriad of oral health challenges, sensitive gums being just one of them.

I complained to my dental hygienist that the taste of my ordinarily healthy mouth chemistry was making me sick to my stomach each day, and I had to do something. And the braces! Well, they are just a cleaning nightmare on their own - weaving floss under each wire and between each bracket – ugh! “

I was literally hooked the first day I used it

“I have a busy career and didn’t have 20 minutes to floss my teeth each day! So my wonderful hygienist recommended I start using Hydro Floss. I was literally hooked the first day I used it. Because it gently rinses away the bacteria in my mouth, I was no longer disgusted by my own mouth chemistry.

Plus, it was gentle on my sensitive pregnancy gums, since I could control the strength of the water flow and didn't use any harsh chemicals like some oral rinses contain.Even after I gave birth, I’ve continued to use my Hydro Floss daily, making my oral health easier to maintain during these last months of my braces. And it doesn’t take 20 minutes to floss each day, which was great for me as a working mom with a hectic schedule. I know it’s working well too – the staff at my orthodontist’s office tell me what great care I take of my mouth. Sweet”
