Tip 3: use mouthwash
Some water flossers or electric flossers can work with water and mouthwash. If you floss with mouthwash, you can enjoy an extra clean feeling after you floss. Before you fill the water tank of your flosser with mouthwash, check if your electric flosser is suitable for that. You can check that in the manual of your device.
Tip 4: replace the attachment in time
The more often you clean your teeth, the sooner you need to replace the attachment of your electric flosser. After some time, bacteria can build up in the floss attachment, so the result won't be as clean. We recommend to replace your attachment after about 3 months for the best flossing performance.
