Oral Irrigator ShowerBreeze
By K kevin Hyland (Sausalito, Ca. USA)

This is a fantastic product! You should Google the link between gum disease, heart disease, and diabetes and you will find a mind blowing link. Bacteria enter your body from under your gums and travel through the rest of your system doing all variety of bad things to your internal organs. Who knew!
This product installs easily right at your shower head and serves as a really great way to blast away the plack...much more powerful than an ordinary water pick because you are dealing with water at house pressure.
It tickles a bit at first but you will get used to in in a couple of months. I was able to reduce my 5 millimeter pockets in the back of my mouth to zero in six months.
If you are really tricky and breath through your nose as you clean your gums you can sometimes smell the bacteria being flushed away...yuck.

Truly Clean Teeth!
By Celtfire (Irvine, CA United States)

Trying to maintain dental prophylaxis preventing disease by keeping the teeth and mouth free of food particles and plaque becomes more difficult the older we get. Brushing and flossing doesn't quite get all of the particles so water jets seem to be a better method.

The sink top water pik versions are problematic; the self contained handheld ones don't have the jet power needed and the tiny reservoir needs to be constantly refilled; the large ones tethered to a tank are bulky and require care to not spray the pik's stream all over the bathroom.

The ShowerPik is ideal. You use it while you shower. Connected to the house water supply, the ShowerPik has all the pressure one needs to really clean teeth. The variable valve is easily installed between the water supply and the shower head letting the user (1)keep showering while diverting water to the Pik, (2)use only the Pik or, (3)turn it off to complete showering. Some experimentation with the valve is needed to find the right pressure for your needs. Warning! Make sure you turn the ShowerPik valve off when you finish the shower.

The ShowerPik is not safe for little children because of the power of the stream and amount of water released.

I highly recommend the ShowerPik for its great utility and very affordable price.

Less mess, no moving parts to break.
By Jerad Gardner (Houston,TX)

Searched for a water pik for some time before deciding on this. Many reviews stated problems with pump failure in water pik and similar products. No pump or other moving parts in the shower pik (except the valve to adjust water pressure). Easy, 5 minute installation. Teeth feel very clean after using shower pik. PLENTY of available water pressure (I use at less than 50% pressure!), but easily adjustable with a valve. No mess, because it is in the shower! The only con is that it tickles my lips (really, it's a bit uncomfortable) when I use it (but I have never used a water pik or similar device previously). Instructions say your mouth will get accustomed to it soon (I've only had this a few days). Overall, highly pleased with it, and the seller was great as well.

Excellent product
By anynoumous (USA)

I absolutely love this thing. I have a receding gumline, and the dentist said the only thing I could do is try to prevent it from getting any worse by using a water pick. I had tried one that hooked up to the sink in the past, and I hated it, because it was so messy. When I saw this, I figured it was worth giving it a try. It works wonderfully, and I can tell a big difference in the health of my gums and teeth. They don't hurt as often, and they even feel cleaner, and I feel like I am doing what the dentist told me to do (for once).

Finally, A Good Habit I Can Easily Form

By Paul Matthews (Ballinafad, Ontario Canada)

Like many people, I find it hard to break bad habits and even harder to form good ones. Oral irrigation in the shower with ShowerPik is so easy. I like how it feels and since I'm in the shower anyway, it's so easy to use my ShowerPik regularly. I have been using ShowerPik for 5 months and it is just part of my life now. Recently, my dentist commented on the health of my gums. Finally, a good habit formed.

HARD NOT TO KEEP GOOD HABITS!!!
By Joe (Kokomo)

I usually brush my teeth in the shower, so this is a perfect complement. Makes my teeth and mouth feel clean, and the benefits to the gums will be of long-term benefit. Looking forward to my next dentist visit; curious to see how much less plaque I'm going to have and the healthier gums.

Most of all though, using this in the shower makes it really easy to WANT to clean your teeth. I'm not a teeth-cleaning nut, but this thing makes me want to use it -- I can't take a shower w/o using it.

An extra little benefit is that the unit can come in handy as a pressure washer. Good for cleaning the shower and especially in grout areas. I'd recommend getting the 6' unit if you want this capability; also, if your shower is next to the sink, the longer hose can allow you to use the unit there.

Great!
By K. Stalica "Kellz" (Florida)

I would reccomend this product to everyone. Unlike the traditional waterpiks it doesn't take up counter space, and water doesn't get sprayed all over your bathroom, and since it is in shower I use it everyday. I also have braces and it works very well at cleaning them. I would reccomend to get the 6ft hose though, I purchased the 3ft and it gives just enough room to face the shower head and work around your mouth. This is a great product!

Convenient
By Kimberly R. Pedersen "Kim" (Charlotte NC USA)

We really like the convenience of the waterpic being so handy in the shower. I believe that this is one of the reasons we fail to do things that we sometimes need is from the lack of convenience.
I would highly recommend getting one.

Beats the Water Pik
By P. Castronovo (Pottersville, NJ)

This is an Oral Breeze "oral irrigator." It is not the plug-in Water Pik brand. The Oral Breeze is far better than the Water Pik because it attaches to your shower head. As such, it provides as much pressure as you like (more than the plug-in type) and it won't leak all over your sink like the Water Pik plug-in. My only criticism is that sometimes the hose is hard to maneuver in the shower so you must turn your head to use it properly rather than just maneuvering the pik. This beats flossing. All in, highly recommended.

ShowerBreeze
By Carrie Gilmore (oregon)

I love this product! It is so much easier to use than a stand alone water pick, and it does a great job!

ShowerBreeze
A. Bressler (St.ClairShores)

I Added the ShowerPik to our shower head and everyone in the family uses it daily . Even the seven year old loves it. There is no mess because it's in the shower, thus no major clean-up. Makes my teeth feel clean even before I brush.

It really is a breeze!!
By The Travel Queen (New Egypt NJ)

What a great product! I love that you can use it in the shower because now I use it every day. No more wet messes all over the sink and no back breaking bending over like you get using a waterpik. I feel a definite improvement, and my husband got complimented by his dentist. I do regret cheaping out and not getting the 6' hose because 3' really isn't long enough when you are a short person. It also works well to rinse the shower walls once I've scrubbed them! Thanks, Oral Breeze!!!

Good for Braces
By Maggie (Mass)

I am glad I read reviews for the sink irrigators. I know my son would have trashed the sink with one. This works great in the shower.

Huge Improvement

By G.L., MA

"After years of bad reports from my oral hygienist...'your gums are bleeding, you have 6 mm gaps, there is heavy plaque buildup under your gums, etc.'...I decided to try the Shower Pik. After only a few months of use my gums went from a D- to a B+....no more bleeding, smaller gaps, much less plaque.' My hygienist was very impressed!"

It Really Works

I bought a ShowerPik from you several weeks ago and wanted to tell you about my experience. I've enjoyed using it in the shower, it's convenient and takes only a few moments to clean my teeth. Two weeks ago I was at the dentist and the assistant commented on how nice and healthy my gums looked. That's when I knew it was really working!

Regards, Mike

More Improvements

With my multiple bridgework, guaranteed cleaning. Truly the best accessory for a toothbrush. My Dentist is impressed with my "work" to keep my teeth clean/healthy. Thanks for a great product. I like it!!!

My dentist highly recommended using a water pik to prevent any further determination of my gums. I have several "food traps" and hope to avoid loosing the teeth that are affected by the pockets. I hate bathroom clutter, so QuickPik and ShowerPik are the answer for me.

About six months ago I had a deep cleaning of my gums and teeth. My dentist was concerned about how I was caring for my teeth (not doing the best job). Since using the ShowerPik, we are both very pleased with the health of my mouth.

I emailed you before and now I have to thank you for selling a very, very. very, very. good water pick. I always had a problem with my gums, but now with your water pick and going to the dentist to take care of my teeth, they are in very good condition. Every time I go there he calls every one over to see my teeth and tells everyone that I had pockets from13mm to 8mm and now they are down to 3mm and 5mm. He doesn't know what I did to get these results so fast but he is very proud of me, and him self. It is funny to see everyone's looks when I tell them about the new water cleaner that did this for me.

Thank you again Jeff (Fl).

Dental Check-Up Report

I just wanted to let you know how my dental check-up went today. (I know you've sitting on the edge of your seat.) As you may remember, I have had some serious concerns about the health of my gums. Every time I go for a check-up, my hygienist and Dr. Takeda give me a little lecture about flossing and gum disease. They have even had me come back every three months instead of the usual six months for additional cleanings. Try as I do, I have not been able to form the habit of flossing, and usually am only successful for a few weeks of regular flossing after one of these lectures before sliding back into old habits with intermittent revivals. After having undergone two very painful root canals in the last few years, I have been trying especially hard to take better care of my mouth. However, until this time, the best I had been able to do was to slow down the rate of deterioration. Today when I went in, not only had my gums not receded, they had actually reversed their deterioration! There was little or no bleeding during the cleaning, and my teeth were not as sensitive to the instruments as they had been! The only thing I am doing differently is using the ShowerPik ?! I have been noticing that my teeth were not so sensitive, and had even stopped using the expensive Sensodyne toothpaste that I've been buying for the last 10 years! I can't thank you enough for introducing me to the ShowerPik ?!! It is so easy to use, and so convenient! It is right there ready to go whenever I step into the shower! Thanks to you and this amazing little gadget, I can look forward to improved dental health and more comfort than I have had in many years. Can you feel the warmth from my California smile all the way to Florida?!!

Love, Yvonne

Great Value

The ShowerPik is working out great. Connecting it was a snap. It is readily available, and so convenient to use - no wasted time setting it up. Complete control over water flow pressure -to all comfort levels -is a feature you won't find in most retail models - even at twice the cost.

More Orthodontic Success

I just wanted to let you know I bought this in April, it has been wonderful!!! My son had just had braces put on, and the dentist said he had never seen someone at this age keep his teeth so clean!!!!

Thank you!!! Vickie

Very Happy With This Prodcut

By S. Soule (Riverside, CT United States)
After two waterpiks died, we tried this and are happy we did. Works really well, and since there's no battery, we expect it to last a long time. The only downside is that you have to remember to move the lever back to the regular faucet position or the spray goes everywhere when you turn on the water.

QuickBreeze

By Jodie Coia (ohio)
My daughter has braces and is one that is not big on brushing. The dentist suggest (strongly) getting a waterpik. We didn't care for the ones that sit on the counter taking up space. When I show this, figured I would get it and have her try it. She loves it, using it 3 or 4 times a day. It nice in that it screws into the faucet but you can release it to use as a regular faucet and you get fresh water every time plus are able to adjust the pressure. I would recommend it to anyone.

I just love it!

By K.R. (Portland, OR)

I never owned a water pik before... wasnt sure if after I got it I would continue to use it. But it's so easy and I like the way it makes my mouth feel after I use it. I've been very good at using it every night before bed. Well worth the price. Fast shipping. Couldn't ask for more.

QuickBreeze Convenience

"I really used to hate to use floss, I always forgot about it until it was time to see the dentist. My QuickPik is always there at my sink and it's easier to use"

QuickBreeze
By L. Yeaton

I wish I had found this years ago. If it should ever break (I don't see that happening soon, it is very well made) I would buy another to replace it.

QuickBreeze
By Marke R. Weeks "Marke" (Idaho)

My 30 year old water pik died and while this doesn't Pulse, it's
by far the best and simplest way to rinse your mouth. I love it !

One Wasn't Enough

I recently ordered both the ShowerBreeze and the one for the faucet. I have nothing but praises for both of them. I couldn't believe how much junk came from my teeth in the basin. Everybody that I have told about it wants one of their own and some have insisted on trying mine, afterwards saying "I can't wait to get one of these!"

Thanks for a wonderful product!

Last Resort

I purchased the QuickBreeze as a last resort because of my problem. I have caps and extensive dental work and could never remove all the food particles with brushing and flossing. The QuickBreeze has solved my problem. I am able to remove all the food particles, it makes my mouth feel clean and it is so easy to use. Great product and service. Thanks, B Stap

RediBreeze bests Water Pik

By V. Ritchard (San Antonio TX USA)
I bought an Oral Breeze RedBreeze oral irrigator a year ago. Previously, I had used Water Pik products for more than 20 years. The failure component in the Water Piks was always the hose, which would become brittle and fatigued and would break, thus rendering the appliance unusable, even though every other component was still fully functional. Replacement hoses were not available to consumers for do-it-yourself repair, leaving replacement of the entire unit or sending it to an authorized repair facility as the only options. When yet another Water Pik hose broke last year, I decided to try a different product.

What do I like about the RediBreeze oral irrigator?
1. It isn't noisy (as Water Piks are).
2. It requires no electricity (as Water Piks do).
3. It doesn't take up space on the bathroom countertop (as Water Piks do).
4. It's easy to install on the bathroom faucet.
5. The pressure of the water stream is quickly and easily adjusted. Only the two lowest settings on my old Water Pik were usable; the higher settings cut my gums.

Although the RediBreeze is somewhat less portable than a Water Pik, so far its advantages have more than made up for that. The price is comparable to that of the Water Pik unit I used to use. I don't know yet how long the RediBreeze hose will last, nor do I know whether Oral Breeze sells replacement hoses. (If they don't, that would be a downer because there doesn't seem to be much else to go wrong with the product.) The only change I would like to see is a somewhat more flexible hose (note: the Water Pik hoses are also too stiff for my taste).

Performance results: my dentist has noticed no difference in how clean my teeth are at the two checkups I've had since switching to the oral irrigator. The proof is in the pudding.

Simplicity without Power, Pumps etc.
By David A. Goucher (Scottsdale, AZ United States)

I have never owned a WaterPik Device so direct comparison cannot be made. I am a believer in the "Keep it Simple" mantra. The RediBreeze is simply an adjustable valve to redirect faucet water to an attached hose and high pressure nozzle. Pressure (with a little practice) is adjusted by your faucet flow and the lever on the units adjustable valve. Temperature can be adjusted with your faucet. The valve unit seems pretty heavy duty and durably made. Two provided nozzles attach to the hose with foolproof twist-n-lock seals. Perhaps it is a bit of a water waster because when adjusted some water still flows down your drain from the faucet. Its simplicity and effectiveness in doing what it is supposed to sold me. 4 stars because price is little high but it is well-made.

My mouth never felt better
By Kesa (Illinois)

At my last dental cleaning I was told that I had the start of gum disease. I was told using a water pic would help so I went to (the internet) to shop for one, and Oral Breeze RediBreeze came up in my search results. I absolutely love it! It attaches right to the facet so requires no counter space and doesn't clutter up my bathroom surfaces. There is no reservoir tank to limit how much water can be used, I can control the water pressure with the lever, and there is no noisy machine to listen to. The best thing is how good my mouth feels after I use the RediBreeze and my gums don't hurt and get swollen and red the way they used to. I have only been using the product before bed but I just found out that it is okay to use it several times a day. From now on I will use it in the AM and PM. Sure wish my job would install one (smile). Another nice benefit is that once I clean my teeth after dinner my mouth feels so nice and fresh that I don't want to mess it up by snacking all evening like I used to do, and I have actually lost a little weight!

Great Irrigator
By Maryann "MK" (East Greenwich, RI USA)

Bought a cordless WaterPik in the drugstore, and started using it, and found it a hassle. Tried this one from Oral Breeze, and found it excellent. Easy installation, so much easier to use. The only comment I have on installation, is that I did have to use the thin rubber washer from inside my faucet thingy (aerator I think it is called) to get the adapter not to leak out of the side of the faucet...no biggy, but might help someone solve a problem..just the design of the faucet, not the fault of the irrigator adapter. Just be sure the pik is in your mouth or pointed down at the drain, when you turn on the water, just to save yourself some clean up.

RediBreeze Oral Irrigators

By Gene L. Smith
I've have had two of the motorized irrigators and have been impressed with the cleaning results. The problem is that they don't last. The RediBreeze has no motor to wear out and provides the same results so will be with me for a long while.

Fresh
By Kimbot (Seattle, WA USA)

1st water pick I've bought. I like it a lot. Makes my mouth feel clean fresh. I like that it doesn't take up a lot of room and I can adjust the power. Be careful because you can generate a lot of pressure with this thing! I plan on making this a part of my daily dental routine.

RediBreeze Oral Irrigators

By K. Grant (Atlanta, Ga)
This is a great product. Very efficient and simplistic, yet does a great job of removing "debris" from the choppers. I'm glad I read the other reviews on the WaterPik brand. I highly recommend the RediBreeze.

redibreeze water irrigator
By Susan S. Wrye (Nashville, TN)

I have been thrilled about my new redibreeze water irrigator. It really does the job.....and is so easy to use!!! I would recommend everyone get one of these - IT IS GREAT!!!!

A Clean Mouth Feels Great!

So, this is my plan...,
By A. Camp
I have just had a crappy experience at my new dentist. I had an exam by the dentist and was told that I should probably think about replacing 2 old fillings and that all I needed was a prophylaxis. I wait 6 weeks to get in to see the hygienist and she tells me that I need all 4 quadrants of my mouth root planed and scaled. Oh, yeah and this is going to cost 900 dollars. So, here's my plan. Use the irrigator religiously for a few weeks and then get a 2nd opinion(will follow up on how that goes) Anyhow, I don't know oral irrigators so I read a lot of reviews. The portable ones don't have enough power, don't hold enough fluid. The tank style just seemed to bulky and too much of a hassle to keep clean. I decided on the RediBreeze and can tell you-THIS THING ROCKS! It works so well, and leaves your teeth feeling really clean. It's a BREEZE to use! Get in the habit of putting the pik in your mouth then flipping the switch on and flipping the switch off before you take the pik out of your mouth. So, I am using Johnson & Johnson Gentle Gum Care floss, Arm & Hammer peroxide/baking soda tooth paste, the Breeze and mouthwash from the dollar store. Will report back after that 2nd opinion!

Dentist & Hygienist Testimonials

I have found that water irrigation as an adjunct to routine brushing and flossing can be a significant factor in maintaining periodontal health. For many, flossing is problematic, and for patients with periodontal compromises, flossing subgingivally has its limitations. The Oral Breeze oral irrigation products are some of the most economical and practical ways to use water irrigation as a way to enhance dental and periodontal health.
