Waterpik is not used to floss.

I would suggest try different brands of floss. Some are shit, some too slippery etc etc.

Idk what you mean by this but both Waterpik and floss are interdental cleaners performing the same job. They have very subtle differences but ADA says either is fine as long as you’re doing one of them.

Yeah, I’d say not cheaping out on floss is one of the more important things. I bought some cheap floss while on a trip since I forgot mine and it absolutely destroyed my gums even though I’ve been flossing for years without any issues.

Yeah, I’ve been buying more expensive floss (Cocofloss) and it’s awesome. God I’m old.
