That said, it didnt create any discomfort for us.

We wish the water reservoir were bigger.

Thats why we recommend the Burst Water Flosser for its effective yet gentle clean.

With its unique quad stream nozzle, it made our mouth and gums feel so much cleaner.

For those with sensitive gums, theBurst Water Flossergave us a gentle yet effective clean.

We also cycled through the various pressures to get a sense of the range.

Also, not every area of the mouth may require the same pressure setting.

Also, if you travel often, a cordless model will be easier to take with you.

These include different nozzles like plaque brush tips, tongue cleaners, and ouroverall bestsquad stream nozzle.

According to Williams-Brown, replacement heads are the most important accessory to look for.
