Floss fest: This cordless Waterpik is $48, over 30% off: 'My teeth feel extra clean'

If you don't like flossing, you are not alone. But no one wants the shame of a dentist seeing just how long it's been since you've given your interdental area the attention it needs. Well, fret no more: Amazon is having a sale on several Waterpiks that is sure to make you and your dentist smile. Ahead of Black Friday, the top-rated Waterpik Pearl Cordless Water Flosser is down to just $48 — that's over 30% off.

Ergonomically designed, the hand grip on this flosser has a built-in reservoir with a 360° rotation for easy maneuverability. It also features a rechargeable battery and comes with four tips.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

$48 is a comparatively small price to pay to avoid having to go to the dentist for a non-routine deep cleaning — and peanuts compared to what you could have to fork over if your teeth are really suffering from a lack of flossing. At over 30% off right now, you're also scoring the best price on the Waterpik Pearl since August.

Why do I need this? 🤔

No matter whether you're already a Waterpik enthusiast or you're a first-timer, you'll enjoy this model's most unique feature — it's completely portable. That means that this rechargeable flosser is travel-ready, so you can refresh your smile everywhere you go. Unlike the countertop version, it has a tank built into the grip. It holds enough water for a 45-second floss session. That also makes it space-saving — if you have a small bathroom, this Waterpik will fit right in! It also comes with four tips.

In addition to its streamlined design, it has all of the features shoppers love about standard Waterpiks. It has two pressure settings and promises to remove up to 99.9% of plaque. According to the manufacturer, it is clinically proven to be up to 50% more effective on gum health than traditional floss. It's also great for people with specific dental issues, crowns, implants and veneers.

What reviewers say 💬

More than 10,500 users have given the Waterpik Pearl a shiny five-star rating on Amazon.

Pros 👍

"My dentist recommended this one as I didn't want the bulky water pick the spews all over," raved one of the water flosser's five-star fans. "It is perfect for home and travel. The charge lasts through several sessions, so you don't need to keep it plugged in. It takes up a small area of the counter and will fit easily if you wish to store it while not in use."

"I love this thing," shared another happy flosser. "My gum is loose around one of my wisdom teeth and food gets caught in there sometimes, but my Waterpik keeps it clean and pain-free."

"I love the device," agreed a rave reviewer. "My teeth feel extra clean after using it! I recently broke my wrist and it’s a big help to have it in place of floss. I intend to keep using it even after my wrist is healed."

"Makes flossing fun!" shared another user. "This version of the Waterpik is easy to use and helps keep the spaces around dental crowns and implants squeaky clean."

Cons 👎

One shopper gave some thoughtful critiques for the flosser: "It’s not as powerful as the AC unit, and the battery unit seems to have more power. However, it is enough power to give a good flossing. The other thing that’s a negative is the capacity of the tank — it would be nice to have a little more. I always seem to run out of water just before I’m completely done. Maybe with practice, I can learn to do it completely in one tank."

For a couple dollars more, you can grab this snazzy water scrubber in black.
