TIP USAGE
Pik Pocket TM Tip
The Pik Pocket TM Tip is specifically designed to deliver
water or anti-bacterial solutions deep into periodontal
pockets. It is not intended for general use.
To use the Pik Pocket Tip, lean low over your
TM
sink and place the soft tip against a tooth at a
45-degree angle and gently place the tip under
the gumline, into the pocket. Turn the unit on and clean
by gently following gumline, inserting tip in between
teeth. Continue tracing along the gumline until all areas
of the mouth are clean.
NOTE: This tip must be used only with the Pressure
Control set to low. Use on a higher setting will shorten
life of tip and power handle.
Tongue Cleaner Tip
Place the tongue cleaner on your tongue and start
the Water Flosser – use the lowest pressure setting,
increase as comfortable. Gently place the tongue
cleaner in the center/midline of your tongue about half
way back and with light pressure pull forward.
Orthodontic Tip
The special Orthodontic Tip is uniquely designed to
simultaneously brush and rinse hard-to-reach areas around
braces and other dental work. Start on the last molar (back
tooth). Aim tip at 90 degree angle to the tooth at the gumline.
Gently glide tip along gumline, pausing briefly to lightly brush
area between teeth and all around orthodontic bracket, before
proceeding to the next tooth. Continue process until you have
cleaned the inside and outside of both the upper and lower
teeth.
