What is a hydropulper and how does it work?

The hydropulseur, also known as a dental jet or oral irrigator, is a device designed to improve oral hygiene. Using a pulsating jet of water, it effectively cleans interdental spaces and areas that are difficult to reach with a traditional toothbrush. The hydropulseur works by applying adjustable water pressure, which dislodges and removes food residues and plaque.

What are the benefits of using a hydropulper?

Using a hydropulper offers several significant benefits for dental health:

  1. Improved gum health: By removing plaque from areas inaccessible to a toothbrush, the hydropulper helps prevent gingivitis and other gum diseases.
  2. Prevents plaque formation: the pulsating water jet helps reduce plaque formation, which in turn reduces the risk of cavities.
  3. Effective on bra ces: For people with braces, the hydropulper is particularly effective for cleaning around brackets and wires where traditional brushes can't reach.

How to choose the best hydropulper?

To choose the best hydropulper, it's important to consider several criteria:

  • Water pressure: Choose a model with adjustable pressure levels to suit your gum sensitivity.
  • Included accessories: Some models offer a variety of tips for specific uses, such as cleaning implants, crowns or orthodontic appliances.
  • Ease of use and maintenance: Choose a hydropulper that's easy to clean and maintain.

How often should I use a hydropulper?

We recommend that you use a handspray at least once a day, ideally after brushing your teeth in the evening, to effectively remove food residues and plaque accumulated during the day.

Can the Hydropulseur replace tooth brushing?

No, the hydropulper cannot replace tooth brushing. It is designed to complement brushing by cleaning areas that toothbrushes cannot reach effectively. The combined use of a toothbrush and hydropulper ensures optimal oral hygiene.

How do I use a hydropulper to maximize its effectiveness?

To use a hydropulper effectively, follow these steps:

  1. Fill the reservoir: Use lukewarm water to fill the reservoir, which can help reduce tooth sensitivity.
  2. Select the appropriate tip: Choose the tip that best suits your specific needs (standard, orthodontic, for periodontal pockets, etc.).
  3. Adjust the pressure: Start with a low pressure, especially if you're new to using the hydropulper, and gradually increase as you feel comfortable.
  4. Position the tip: Place the tip vertically, close to the gum line, and point it between the teeth.
  5. Activate the device: pause briefly to spit out accumulated water, and continue until you've cleaned all areas of the mouth.

What's the difference between a portable and a countertop hydropump?

Handheld units are compact and often battery-powered, making them ideal for travel or small bathrooms. In contrast, countertop units require an electrical connection and generally have larger tanks and more pressure settings, offering more powerful performance and extended autonomy for family use.

Are hand sprayers safe for children?

Yes, hydropumps can be safe for children, provided they are used under adult supervision and the child is able to manage the intensity of the water. There are models designed specifically for children, with attractive colors and gentler pressure settings, making them more suitable and enjoyable for young users.

Can I add mouthwash to the hydropulper?

Yes, you can add mouthwash to the water in the reservoir of your hydropulper for an extra cooling sensation and to enjoy the antiseptic or fluoride benefits of mouthwash. However, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding recommended proportions, and to rinse the device with clear water after use to avoid residual deposits.

How do I maintain my hydropulper to ensure its longevity?

To keep your hydropulper in good condition, follow these maintenance tips:

  • Empty and dry the reservoir after each use: This prevents the growth of bacteria and mould.
  • Clean nozzles regularly: Soak nozzles in a disinfectant solution or diluted vinegar to remove deposits and bacteria.
  • Change mouthpieces every 3 to 6 months: Replace mouthpieces regularly to maintain optimum efficiency and hygiene.
  • Follow the manufacturer's instructions for descaling: If your water is very hard, periodic descaling may be necessary to maintain the unit's performance.
