Water flossers?

Hmmm... Could well be. She just calls it the jet washer...

Drive down to the car wash, stick her head out of the window and say open wide. She'll love it.

Brushing your teeth with an abrasive (toothpaste) also erodes your teeth.

Well, it abrades them, rather than erodes them

No one is going to have a pop at Corsodyl, no? Did they fix that minor problem with their oral wash which stained teeth?

There are a few flossils around these parts.

Missed a trick there

Never even knew it did. I've been using it a while and have no issues.

I don't have a car...

I think I'd find flossing normally more satisfying rather than ANOTHER gadget to plug in. Floss isn't exactly expensive, and it's pretty effective.

They can't fix it, the active ingrdient breaks diwn into tannins, like in tea coffe and red wine, and thus can adhere to the surfaces of teeth.
It affects some more than others, timing of the mouthwash is important.
Their daily version claims not to stain, but it just stains less.

Corsodyl shouldn't be used every day - once a week is plenty. Do that and you'll avoid the stains.

It's the chlorhexidin that stains your teeth, they do a cordosyl without it I believe for daily use.

Still, flossing is the most effective thing to do.

water erodes mountains so will it erode your teeth

If only "it" and "will" were in fact the other way round as I read it at first, this would be signature material.

It still has it, just at a lower conc.
Wouldn't be corsodyl without chx.

Ah fair enough - I don't use it, just saw it advertised as a "daily". My dentist suggests just good brushing and flossing is all you need. But I guess every little helps

If you are brushing and flossing accurately and correctly, using a fluroide toothpaste, then that is certainly sufficient.
Often people do not floss correctly, so the likes of TePe brushes can be ideal for most.

Indeed - that's why regular check ups are good to make sure you're doing the right thing
