The Aqua Flosser by Aquasonic reportedly offers a more efficient alternative to traditional flossing. Its 360-degree rotary tip can reach areas that regular floss can't, providing a deeper clean in half the time. Clinically proven to be up to 5 times more effective than traditional floss, it also massages gums to boost circulation, according to Aquasonic. This cordless, rechargeable device uses a lithium-ion battery to produce water jets that gently remove food and plaque, cutting flossing time by 90%. It comes with 3 usage modes and various attachments, including standard tips, a periodontal tip, an orthodontic tip, and a tongue scraper.
