Oral irrigation device or oral irrigator (as what they are commonly called) are used to effectively clean gums and teeth. It is used to clean off plaque and other food pieces especially in between teeth which are hard to reach when brushing. Oral irrigator is proven to effectively clean the teeth and mouth rather than using dental floss. It is also proven to cause less bleeding than the risk of bleeding from using dental floss.

An oral irrigator is like a power washer for your mouth. It cleans between your teeth and gums 93% better than flossing, and prevents bleeding gums.
