- We flag Bacterial growth in water reservoir and seals and Acrylic reservoir clarity degradation on the Waterpik and not on the Floss & Ploss.
- The Floss & Ploss is Dental floss (plant-based or silk) and glass case where the Waterpik is Plastic (ABS/acrylic), stainless steel, rubber seals, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
