• Regular bleeding of the gums of medium and intense type;
• If a person just a few days ago had implants, prostheses or braces installed - they need to be given some time so that the oral cavity can get used to them;
• If the human body experienced a surgical intervention some time ago, then it should be given time to recover;
• The presence of ulcerative formations in the oral cavity is also a serious contraindication for the use of an irrigator;
• Diagnosed suspicion or already defined diagnosis of cancer in the mouth, throat or esophagus of a person.

Since the irrigator is a medical device, we recommend that you consult a specialist before purchasing it. Doctor to determine if there are any contraindications.

How to care for the device?

According to the manufacturer, this product is designed for a fairly long service life. In order for the irrigator to serve as long as possible, you need to follow simple rules:

• It is strictly forbidden to immerse the main unit in water so that a short circuit does not occur. After each use, it is recommended to dry the product, wipe it with a soft dry cloth;
• If various kinds of medicinal compounds are used instead of water, the device should be thoroughly rinsed. To do this, fill the tank with warm water and turn on the irrigator until the water runs out;
• The maximum temperature of the liquid that can be poured into the tank is 50 degrees;
• It is advisable to rinse the nozzles after each use, and sometimes to disinfect them in a chlorhexidine solution or in hydrogen peroxide at room temperature;
• Store the device in a dry place.

Only purified water should be poured into the tank, in order to avoid clogging of nozzle nozzles with particles of dirt or salts. Compositions containing infusions of herbs or oily substances are strictly prohibited. It is permissible to fill the tank only with special fluids that are previously approved by the manufacturer.

Features of use and instructions for use

In principle, working with the WI-912 irrigator is not difficult. However, there are a number of important rules. First of all, the manufacturer does not recommend turning on the device if a nozzle is not inserted in the socket, as this can cause overheating of the electric motor and soon disable it. In addition, the irrigator should not be started if the water tank is not filled with liquid.

The new device comes with a discharged battery, so it should be recharged first. When this is done, they start refueling the tank, this can be done in two ways: through the upper hole by removing the tank itself, and through the external hole by folding the protective cover. The irrigator is filled with either water or a special liquid.

Pick and place a suitable nozzle, install it close to the handle. Before using the irrigator, select the pressure intensity - this is done using the special button. It is advisable to keep the jet at right angles to the gums and teeth.

When the nozzle is in the mouth, it is better to close your lips to prevent splashing. Move the nozzle according to the sensations from one tooth to another, trying to stay in between the teeth themselves. The degree of cleaning can be seen in the mirror. Excessive use should not be feared, since the stream is distributed quite softly along the enamel surface. This allows you to remove plaque and plaque, and save your teeth.

If the device is not used for a long time, it is advisable to rinse it thoroughly. After use, all remaining water should be poured.

User reviews about B.Well WI-912

Maxim, 35 years old, Moscow

• A decent amount of nozzles, well cleans of impurities. Perfectly kneads the gums, although at first there was a slight bleeding. She disappeared literally after three or four applications. The teeth became noticeably whiter. I use ordinary filtered water, I did not fill in specialized formulations, but I assume that the effect of them will be even better. High power level, and if necessary, you can adjust the intensity of the jet.

Vera, 26 years old, Yegoryevsk

• It cleans teeth very effectively and even effectively, it is a good prevention of bleeding gums. Power can be adjusted directly during use or from time to time, gradually bringing it to the maximum level of work. The kit comes with a fairly large set of nozzles that can rotate, which allows you to brush your teeth and massage your gums from almost any angle and in the most inaccessible places. The case for the device and nozzles is very convenient - it is convenient to take on the road. For such a functional device and a wide configuration, the cost is quite acceptable. In terms of shortcomings, I want to note a not-too-convenient system for adding water.

Alexey, 43 years old, Shatura

• A periodontist advised me on these products. Personally, in my opinion, the device is characterized by a completely optimal ratio of price and quality. There are many nozzles, but I do not use all of them. However, those that are designed for direct massage of the gums, I was optimally suited. The design of the device is attractive, the model does not need a lot of free space, if necessary, you can take it with you on the road. The tank capacity is enough to work with the entire oral cavity. The assembly is of high quality - even after several months of daily use, I did not find any creaks or other manufacturing defects, although the case is made exclusively of plastic. I did not notice any very ill-conceived moments.
