Why Dentists Say “DON’T FLOSS! Switch to PuurSmile Instead”
Breaking down the results, safety, and convenience of PuurSmile vs. traditional flossing
"I used to dread flossing because it made my gums bleed every single time. With PuurSmile, I actually look forward to it—and my gums stopped bleeding after just one week."
— Jessica T., Verified Buyer
What Is a Puur Smile Water Flosser?
Puur Smile Water Flosser uses pulsating water pressure to blast away plaque, bacteria, and food debris from between teeth and below the gumline—without the pain, bleeding, or difficulty of traditional string floss.
Unlike string floss that can cut gums, shred between tight teeth, and miss deep gum pockets, water flossers like PuurSmile deliver 140 PSI of professional-grade pressure that removes up to 2X more plaque than string floss while being gentle enough for sensitive gums.
The result? 99.9% plaque removal in 3 seconds—eliminating bad breath at the source, stopping gum bleeding in 3-7 days, removing hardened plaque before it becomes tartar, and halting gum recession by removing inflammatory bacteria.

Why Dentists Recommend Puur Smile
"There's a reason we use high-pressure water irrigation in every dental office—it's the most effective way to remove plaque and bacteria from areas brushing and flossing simply can't reach. PuurSmile brings that same professional-grade technology home. With 140 PSI of pressure, it matches the cleaning power of our in-office tools. I recommend it to every patient who struggles with bleeding gums, bad breath, or plaque buildup."
Why PuurSmile Outperforms String Floss
Effectiveness: 2X More Plaque Removal
Here's what your dentist might not tell you:
String floss only removes plaque from the sides of your teeth.
It can't reach:
X Deep gum pockets (where bacteria causes gum disease)
X Behind back molars easily
X Around bridgework or implants
X Tonsil crypts (where bad breath bacteria hides)
PuurSmile changes everything.
With 140 PSI of water pressure, PuurSmile removes 99.9% of plaque biofilm in just 3 seconds—including hardened deposits that string floss can't touch.
"When a patient tells me they don't floss with string but use a water flosser instead, that's the only time I'm genuinely relieved. Water flossers aren't just a substitute—they're twice as effective at removing plaque between teeth."
— Dr. Sarah Martinez, Periodontist
Clinical studies prove it:
2X more effective at plaque removal vs. string floss
93% more effective at reducing gum inflammation
50% more effective at reducing bleeding gums
No More Bleeding Gums
If you've ever finished flossing with blood on your hands, you're not alone.
Here's the problem with string floss:
X It cuts into gums, creating tiny openings for bacteria
X It requires awkward hand positions that cause wrist and finger pain
X It shreds between tight teeth or catches on dental work
X It pushes bacteria deeper into gum pockets instead of removing it
PuurSmile solves every single problem:
✓ Gentle water pressure massages gums instead of cutting them
✓ 5 customizable modes let you start gentle and increase as gums heal
✓ One-handed use - no awkward finger-wrapping required
✓ Safe for all dental work - braces, implants, crowns, bridges, veneers
Dentists Recommend for at Home Use
"Every dental office uses water irrigation during cleanings— Why? Because it's the only method powerful enough to blast away hardened plaque and flush bacteria from deep gum pockets. PuurSmile delivers that same 140 PSI professional pressure at home.
From Bleeding to Healthy in 14 Days
BEFORE: Swollen, bleeding gums caused by bacteria buildup in deep pockets that brushing and floss can't reach.
AFTER: Healthy, pink gums after just 14 days of daily water flossing with PuurSmile's 140 PSI pressure—flushing out bacteria and reducing inflammation at the source.

Bad Breath: Eliminates Odor at the Source
String floss only removes visible food particles.
It doesn't kill the bacteria causing bad breath.
The science of bad breath:
Odor comes from volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) produced by bacteria
These bacteria hide in places string floss can't reach:
X Tonsil crypts
X Deep gum pockets
X Back of tongue
X Behind molars
PuurSmile's dual-action approach:
140 PSI water pressure flushes bacteria from hiding spots
FlossDrop antibacterial serum (included free) kills odor-causing bacteria on contact
The result? All-day fresh breath that mouthwash can't match.
"I've dealt with chronic bad breath for years despite brushing and flossing twice a day. PuurSmile with the FlossDrop serum is the only thing that's actually worked. My confidence has completely changed."
— Amanda R., Verified Buyer

"My gums have bled every time I flossed for the past 15 years. My dentist wanted to do an $800 deep cleaning. I tried PuurSmile first—the bleeding stopped after 5 days. After 3 weeks, my dentist said my gums looked so healthy I didn't need the procedure. Saved me $800 and probably saved my teeth."

Verified Review
"I used to get that rough, fuzzy plaque buildup on my teeth by evening. With PuurSmile, my teeth stay smooth and clean all day. My last dental cleaning took 10 minutes instead of the usual 45—the hygienist said there was barely any buildup to remove."

All Your Questions Answered:
Is water flossing really as effective as string floss?
Yes—it's actually 2X more effective. Clinical studies show water flossers remove twice as much plaque and are 93% more effective at reducing gum inflammation compared to string floss. The American Dental Association recognizes water flossers as an effective alternative. PuurSmile's 140 PSI reaches deep gum pockets and between tight teeth that string floss can't access—without the pain, bleeding, or cuts.
Will it hurt my sensitive or bleeding gums?
No—it actually heals them. PuurSmile has 5 pressure settings specifically for sensitive gums. Start on Mode 1 (gentle) and increase gradually. Most users report bleeding STOPS within 3-7 days because you're finally removing the bacteria causing inflammation—not cutting tissue like string floss does. If your gums bleed now, it's because they're infected. PuurSmile removes the infection.
How is this different from cheaper water flossers like Waterpik?
Most water flossers have only 60-80 PSI—too weak to break up hardened plaque or reach deep gum pockets. PuurSmile delivers 140 PSI (professional dental-office strength). Plus, competitors don't include: FlossDrop antibacterial serum (kills bad breath bacteria), 6 specialized tips including the 2-in-1 Flosser Brush Head, whitening strips, or cleaning tablets. You'd spend $300+ buying everything separately—if you could even find equivalents.
Will this really eliminate my bad breath?
Yes—if bacteria is the cause (which it is 90% of the time). Bad breath comes from bacteria in tonsil crypts, gum pockets, and tongue coating—areas brushing and mouthwash can't reach. PuurSmile's 140 PSI flushes these bacteria out, and the FlossDrop serum kills them on contact. If mouthwash only works for an hour, this is your solution. Thousands of users report bad breath eliminated within 7-10 days.
Can I use it with braces, implants, crowns, or bridges?
Absolutely—it's actually recommended for dental work. The Orthodontic tip is specifically designed for braces (no painful wire-catching like string floss). The gentle water pressure is safe for implants, crowns, bridges, and veneers—it won't damage dental work like aggressive brushing can. Many orthodontists and periodontists recommend water flossers over string floss for patients with dental work.
How long until I see results?
Most users see results within the first week:
Day 1-3: Mouth feels cleaner, fresher breath immediately after use
Day 3-7: Gum bleeding stops, less tenderness
Week 2: Teeth feel smooth all day, noticeable plaque reduction
Week 3-4: Gums look pink and healthy, bad breath completely gone
Week 6-8: Visibly whiter teeth (from plaque removal), dentist notices improvement
