Got my all-on-4 implants a few months back, and one thing that's really helped me is using a water flosser every night. Regular flossing was kinda tricky at first, you know, but the water flosser makes it way easier to keep things clean without irritating my gums. Curious if anyone else has found other handy tricks or gadgets that make daily care simpler or quicker?
Water flossers are great, but man, they're pricey. I picked up one of those cheap interdental brushes onlineβtiny little things, kinda like pipe cleaners for your teeth. Sounds weird, but they're surprisingly effective at getting into tight spots without hurting my gums. Plus, they're dirt cheap, so losing one down the sink drain doesn't feel like a tragedy...ask me how I know, lol.
Those little brushes are underrated, aren't they? Ever tried bending the tip slightly to reach tricky spots behind implants...works wonders. And yeah, losing one down the drain is practically a rite of passage, haha.
