Recommended Technique
For best results, start with the back teeth and work toward the front teeth. Direct
the stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline with tip in mouth. Glide tip along
gumline and pause briefy between teeth. Continue until you have cleaned the inside
and outside of both the upper and lower teeth.
