The WaterPik PP-100 Periodontal Tip is designed for gentle cleaning and rinsing of periodontal (gum) pockets. These pockets form when inflamed gums pull away from the teeth, creating a space where plaque and food particles can accumulate. If not removed, these deposits can worsen inflammation and potentially lead to tooth loss.
Use the tip with WaterPik irigators models WP-100; 112; 160; 450; 462; 560; 562; 563; 660; 672; 662; 1. Avoid using the irrigator at full power, as high pressure can damage the rubber tip or irritate the gum pockets.
