Toothbrush Tip
Place the toothbrush tip in
mouth with the brush head
on the tooth at the gumline.
The toothbrush tip can be
used with or without toothpaste. Turn the Water Flosser on so the water
flows through the tip. Using a light pressure (bristles should not bend)
vibrate the brush back and forth with very short strokes-much like you would
with a manual toothbrush. Repeat on adjacent teeth. Water will flow through
the brush, to help simultaneously clean and rinse the tooth surface.

Plaque Seeker

Tip

Direct the jet stream at a
90-degree angle to your
gumline. Close lips slightly to
avoid splashing but allow water
to flow freely from mouth into sink. Start in the molar (back teeth) area
working toward the front teeth. Place the tip close to the teeth so that the
bristles are gently touching the teeth. Gently glide tip along gumline, pausing
briefly between teeth to gently brush and allow the water to flow between the
teeth. Continue until all areas around and between the teeth both inside and
outside, top and bottom have been cleaned.
