Experts agree that Plaque buildup is considered to be the leading cause of gum disease of which there are various stages; the two most common forms being gingivitis and adult periodontitis. It is estimated that 1 in 4 people are affected by advanced gum disease, with about 75 percent of adults experiencing some type of gum problem for most of their adult life.
Plaque builds up in areas where brushing and flossing don’t reach; below the gum line, on the inside of the lower front teeth and the outside of the upper molars, near the saliva ducts. This plaque buildup creates a wealth of bacteria which “enters the bloodstream, causing a breakdown of the body’s immune system which in turn affects its ability to fight a whole range of apparently unrelated diseases.” Dr. Jim Harrison
The Hydrofloss Kitty Waterjet oral irrigator cleans between teeth and deep into gum pockets, removing debris, plaque and other unwanted material which contribute to tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath.
The Hydrofloss Oral Irrigator features a patented hydro-magnetic technology, which inhibits bacteria from adhering to the tooth surface, reducing tartar and bacterial buildup up to 44% better than other brands!
That’s why the Hydrofloss oral irrigator is the #1 choice for dentistry professionals. It is particularly effective at removing bacteria which cannot be cleaned by brushing and flossing. This aids in controlling the formation of plaque and calculus and will remove deposits at and slightly below the gum line.
Plaque that is not removed can harden and form bacteria-harbouring "tartar" that brushing doesn't clean.
According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology (May 1993; 20: 314-317) titled 'The effect of oral irrigation with a magnetic treatment device on plaque and calculus', the group using an irrigator with a magnetic device showed a 44% greater reduction in calculus volume (p<0.0005) and a 42% greater reduction in area (p<0.0001) over the group using an unmagnetised irrigator. This means that the Hydrofloss Kitty Waterjet is almost TWICE as effective as an unmagnetised irrigator.
According to the Journal of Clinical Periodontology, “It's not just water pressure like the leading oral irrigator. The Hydrofloss Kitty Waterjet uses magnetic technology to "pull" plaque, tartar, and bacterial debris off enamel and out from below the gum line. No other instrument can do this!
By treating the water magnetically, the ionization process is enhanced. By reversing the Polarity of the ions at the molecular level, it reduces surface tension and inhibits the ability of the bacteria to attach to the tooth surface thereby preventing the formation of calculus tartar.
Each Hydrofloss Kitty Waterjet oral irrigator includes
- a large 825ml metered reservoir
- reservoir lid
- 4 color-coded jets tips
- a wall-mounting jet tip holder
For the ultimate oral care solution for gum & periodontal disease, gingivitis, halitosis and for the prevention of tooth decay and plaque buildup, we recommend adding the Perioscript Solution by BioPro to the HydroFloss Kitty Waterjet before each use.
