Hello, i would like to ask if it is ok to use oral water irrigator right after meal? Since we cant brush right after food, but having the food debris stuck between my teeth is annoying. I heard you mentioning that we can floss, but im not really used to flossing, so is using oral irrigator ok? Will it wear off the enamel like toothbrush does? Thank you.

I assume the Water irrigator you are talking about is like a water pik equivalent of water flosser. Yes this is a great choice after meal :) . It doesn’t strip away enamel as easily as toothbrushes. Usually low power is sufficient.
Thanks Dr Teresa to remind abt rinsing to let fluoride stay in mouth. I had periodontal problem 3 years back but miracle happened as I discovered a china made toothpaste called probiotic toothpadte which is the only one in the market. My dentist does not stress importance of toothpaste except asking me to have deep cleaning regularly which is painful. It was me to think logically that periodontis happened because of bacterial, if I use probiotic toothpaste to create a good environment in my mouth, my teeth will not be harmed by bad bacterial. This method works, my periodontis is cured surprisingly. My other dentist said my periodontis is well controlled and does not need deep planning anymore. Is this correct assumption? Pls guide me.

I can’t comment on individual person’s oral health without a proper exam But I am glad that your gum problem is under control. As long as you are not replacing regular professional cleaning with toothpaste use, there is no issue here. Happy to hear that your gum is healthy again !
