Gadget of The Day…
At The Digitante HQ, we recently had a new addition to our ranks. No, its not a new little baby. It isn’t a car. Regardless, it has changed my life. I look back and think, ‘How did I ever live without it.’
A waterpik.
A little back story may be in order here. The reason we got the waterpik is because Mrs. Digitante recently got braces. In order to keep her breath nice and fresh and keep her teeth cavity free, we decided to get a waterpik. When purchasing a waterpik, you basically have two options: the one pictured above (which we got) or one that hooks directly up to the sink using an attachment to the faucet.
While that one would have been less expensive and perhaps more economical, we decided to go with the version that could easily be packed up and tossed in the cupboard or a suitcase.
Now I’ll tell you a few things about the waterpik:
- It has a stop button so you can pause your teeth cleansing at any moment to listen to your daughters screaming “DADADADA” at the top of their lungs.
- The sharp jets of water go up under the gums and get the stuff that toothbrushing doesn’t get. Warning: Your gums will bleed the first couple of times you use it, but on the upside, I found that I didn’t have nearly the morning breath that I usually do. And usually it is BAD.
- It comes with multiple attachments including the orthodontic attachment for cleaning around braces, a sharp attachment called the pocketpik for between teeth, and a tongue scraper that looks like a spoon with a hole in it that squirts away the gunk while you scrape, scrape, scrape away.
- Mrs. Digitante’s favorite thing is to blast chunks of dinner out of her braces. If that sounds gross, just imagine if she left them in there for a day or two.
Mrs. Digitante has also decided everyone is getting Waterpiks for birthdays, wedding, child births, bar mitzvahs, confirmations, coronations, anniversaries (4th anniversary is water, right?), Christmas, Thanksgiving, and bachelor/bachelorette parties.
