Review by M. Moore for Waterpik WP-70/WP-70W Family Dental Water Jet

My dentist warned me that if I didn’t start using a WaterPik, especially around my bridges and crowns, I was going to have trouble. Brushing just wasn’t effective enough between teeth and around the base of the crowns. I didn’t listen and paid the price – money and discomfort from a root canal plus a lot of “I told you so”s from him and my wife.

Not wanting to help my dentist pay for yet another Lexus, I caved and bought the WaterPik. I have to admit that it is really effective. A little messy and noisy but it sure does get stuff out that brushing couldn’t remove. Has more power than I can use. Seems to make my gums feel better also.

Wish I didn’t have to use it, but wish more that I would have started long ago.

The only reason I’m downgrading it to 4 stars is because the handle leaks a little and the whole device seem just a wee bit cheesy. Wish I there was a lid for the reservoir so I wouldn’t have to leave it open or take it apart after use.

Tomorrow I have to return this item because after less than 3 weeks of use the pump has malfunctioned. I did enjoy the clean mouth I had after using it but another drawback was that it was unbelievably noisey. Before buying this I spoke with an acquaintance who mentioned that he had bought one and in less than two years (which is the lenght of the warranty, his model also had suddenly died) But I didn’t expect this item-which was recommeded by my dentist , to be such a disappointment.

I got about 6 months of light (single person-once-a-day) use before it quit. Now it just emits a steady hum. This is intended for family use? That is laughable. You should get the extended warrantee if you buy this turkey.

I LOVE THE WATER PICK!!!Out of all the Water Pick’s out there, I’m inclined to say that this is the best one!The water basin is HUGE, allowing most people to clean their entire set of teeth, without having to refill (which is truly a painful interruption, once when is within the ZONE of Water-Picking)The jet streams also very greatly in intensity, allowing one to tone done water streams that are too uncomfortableCleaning and traveling is also a cinch! I wish it came with a travel bag, but no worries — excellent product all around!I recommend it highly over dental floss, as wellThank you for reading and thank you for your time

I must say that it is impressive, and gratifying, to give your teeth the best brushing you know how, then turn on the water jet and watch all the hidden bits of detritus get chased out of their hiding places. It really does clean in places the brush can’t reach, and if your teeth are tightly packed (like mine), it is much easier than flossing. The basic idea of cleaning with a pulsed water jet seems sound to me.

That said, I really think there’s room left in the market (the aging-boomer-healthcare market that is) for a quality, well-made dental irrigator. My Water Pik sounds like a little jackhammer running, the tubing to the handpiece is stiff and tangles easily, and… mine sprang a leak where the tubing enters the handpiece after about four months. A leak that sprays water all the way across the room, mind you. The handpiece is cheaply molded onto the tubing and can’t be disassembled for repair, and the parts don’t seem to be available.

I’m here on Amazon shopping for an alternate brand, but it seems that they have similar shortcomings — short life heading the list. So I repeat my remark, and hope that someone from Bosch or Panasonic or somewhere were they value quality stuff is reading… what this country (USA) needs is an irrigator that works well, stays together, and doesn’t wake up the house!
