This Waterpik Water Flosser Is Hugely Discounted at Amazon’s Presidents’ Day Sale

Let's get one thing straight: Flossing is a chore. Don't pretend you're not guilty of going weeks—months!—without doing it. I know I am. So, you better believe my ears perked up when I first learned about the viral Waterpik water flosser, which promised to make the dreaded chore novel and even fun. If you're also trying to improve your flossing game, you're in luck. During Amazon's Presidents' Day sale, you can score the internet-loved flosser for nearly 30 percent off—now from $70, down from $100.

Still on the fence? All you really need to know is that more than 45,000 buyers say it does a fantastic job at removing plaque from your teeth (up to 99.9 percent of it, y'all). In other words, it's a total game-changer for improving your oral health. Not to mention the fact that PureWow's own Kate Kesselman put it to the test after noshing on a chia açaí bowl.

In the video, Kesselman pits the Waterpik against good old fashioned dental floss to see which will leave her teeth squeaky clean and chia seed-free.

"It sprays the food away easily, making me feel like I'm at the dentist. After using it, you can see that there's much less food particles than there was with the floss. On that note, I will be changing my floss out for a Waterpik."

Other buyers have also raved about the flosser's efficacy, with one reporting: "My gums were red, swollen and inflamed because I was in the early stages of periodontal disease...After using [the Waterpik] consecutively each night for only five days, my gums were noticeably better."

Another added: "WOW!! I could not be more happy with this waterpick and flosser. It [leaves] my mouth feeling really clean and refreshed even with my implants on my front teeth."

The Waterpik basically replaces string floss by using a combination of water and pressure to gently remove plaque and debris, which can contribute to bad breath, gum disease and tooth decay. What we love about this specific model is that it's portable, cordless and comes with four tips for the whole family. Plus, it has three pressure settings for your most comfortable clean. More importantly, it's simple to use. All you do is fill up the reservoir with warm water, pick a setting and proceed to glide the flosser along your gumline and between your teeth. Just make sure you do it over the sink to avoid a mess.

The Amazon Presidents' Day Sale is making it possible to snag the popular device for about two-thirds the cost. Take this as a sign and now...get to flossing!
