I used to say cleaning my teeth felt better than an orgasm......it really does make them shine......I use a Sonicare and have for 30 some years.....have also used the WaterPik for about five years in concert with the Sonicare. Love them both and what they do for my mouth. I use a bit of a Listermint or Scope or whatever is on sale in the WaterPik. Just tastes good!
