Irrigators Aquajet LD A8 and A7: characteristics, differences between models – Setafi

Good oral hygiene involves more than just brushing or flossing, as most people think. These methods are really good, but do not give a 100% result. For this, such a dental device as an irrigator was invented. In this article, we'll take a look at Aquajet's reference irrigators for home use, analyze the differences between the LD A8 and A7 models, and discuss why they are really worth the money.

How an irrigator works

The device performs the function of additional cleaning of the oral cavity, namely, it penetrates into the space between the teeth, comfortably cleans dentures and braces. The principle of operation is that water or a treatment solution is supplied through a device under controlled pressure. This method is especially effective for densely standing teeth - with a regular brush we clean only the open parts of the enamel, and we don’t reach between the teeth.

Important! The irrigator will give a full-fledged result only in combination with traditional methods of brushing your teeth.

Fluid can be supplied in various modes:

• continuous;
• micropulsation;
• bubbles.

The hydraulic pump pumps the liquid into the device and transfers it to the surface to be cleaned. You will not feel any pain, because the pressure is minimal and it can be adjusted with regulators.
