Water pik

Options
Has anyone used one of these before? Just wondering if there any good. my front teeth are really crowded making flossing near enough impossible I thought a water pik would help.
I'm trying so hard to be thrifty, but it doesn't come naturally. You lot are an inspiration!

    They can be good in the right circumstances, and used correctly.

    Best to ask your dentist, or dental hygienist if they think one might be suitable for you. (Very few dentists sell them, so you'll probably get an unbiased opinion!)
    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.
