Congratulations! By selecting the Waterpik

®

Water Flosser you are now

on your way to better gum health, and a healthier smile!

With a clinically proven combination of water pressure and pulsations, the

Waterpik

®

Water Flosser removes harmful bacteria deep between teeth

and below the gumline – where brushing alone won’t reach.

We are so convinced that you will be happy with your new Waterpik

®

Water

Flosser, that we back it up with a 14-day guarantee. If you aren’t satisﬁed

that your gums are healthier after using the Waterpik

®

Water Flosser for 14

consecutive days, feel free to return it to us for a full refund.

Thank you for choosing the Waterpik

®

Water Flosser.
