A member asked:
What do you advise if i was wondering if you should use a waterpik before or after flossing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Before: The best way to keep immaculate oral hygiene is to brush immediately after every meal, rinse your mouth after brushing, use the waterpik tip that allows you to flush between teeth &gums, &then floss your teeth &lastly rinse your mouth once again.
