I started using this oral device 2 weeks ago but every time I use it i got all wet, i.e. my face gets wet. Does this normal?

Perfectly normal if you're using it from a range greater than the size of the inside of your mouth. As others have suggested, perhaps you've missed the concept. Maybe using it in the shower would help to contain the spillage.

You could always use it in the shower. That's what my son did when he had braces.

No. It's not normal. Put the Jet Tip (the part that squirts) into your mouth before you turn on the Irrigator. And turn the Irrigator off before you take out the Jet Tip. Bend over the sink and let your mouth hang open as you work the Jet Tip from tooth to tooth. You can watch the yukky stuff that was stuck between your teeth and under your gums falling out as you use the Irrigator this way to clean your mouth. It's nice knowing that stuff isn't there any more -- and you'll find you still get stuff out of your mouth with the Irrigator even after brushing and flossing.

I have just had mine for two days. I am having headaches for at least 4 hours after using it for 30 minutes. I think I will start using it for a shorter time in the beginning.

No. I did not use for a couple of months and found my lips started decreasing back to their initial size. I just popped them back in daily and continue to use.

I use it in the shower and just wet my face first. But, unfortunately, mine did not last long. I thought maybe it was because it got wet in the shower, but other people have said they keep theirs in the shower. Mine quit working just after the warranty was up. Isn't that always the case??? Now I just use the brush to scrub without the machine.

You have to rinse the filter out thoroughly for at least 2 minutes, did you d that? If you used the same cup all the time which I do without rinsing it out (I'm bad) you may see a very little whitish grit. I had dry mouth for years after using this and drinking about 4-6 glasses a day, my dry mouth is gone. I could not believe it.

I did not experience any soreness, did you adjust it to fit as snugly as possible? Mine fits on the teeth but not low enough to reach my bottom gums. I am continually surprised it's still in my mouth in the morning.

I've experienced the same thing, I think it just evaporates after a while. I suppose you don't notice it if you're using it every day versus every now and then.

The water pik has different levels of water pressure one of them is fairly soft on the gums , i would take the unit to a nose doctor and show him to get his opinion if it does not harm you and you have aproblem with your nose it will be great for you. as in all matters of life get the right help.

I've been using it for a while now and I do think it works well. They recommend just water but every once in a while you can put mouthwash in it and it does a little better job of getting things clean. It is much easier than brushing your mouthguard or dentures everyday. Just place them in the container, fill with water or mouthwash and push the button. It runs for about five minutes. Remove container, rinse and you're done. I would definitely buy another if this one would break. Good luck.

mine is the same, watery. Only time will tell if it is a good part of our face regimen daily, it can only help. I'm going to just continue to use it daily and hope for the best. I also use vitamin C crème so and many other things for my face. I guess you could say that I have a face fetish when it comes to anti aging and moisturizer products. They feel great they smell great and I'm sure they work over time as any other skin product. I just make it a life long daily commitment to care for my skin.

Neither my husband or I have had this problem. You may be putting too much pressure on your nerves when using it. Or... If you've never had a massage your muscles may have built up toxin. When you get a professional massage they tell you to drink a lot of water and expect a headache. If it keeps happening I would defiantly discontinue use and ask your dr. But I'm not sure it's caused by the product.

Mine doesn't work. Power is not sufficient to water pick your mouth. Try smelling water from shower in a glass. If it is the device, I would return it. Mine doesn't smell. Melissa

I used it for a week, just rinsing it mostly, paying special attention to the mouth part. When I got home from the cruise, I was so disgusted with it because it leaked, that I thoroughly washed it (taking it apart) and let it dry. It now sits in the cabinet. Have you had a problem with leaking when it is on its side ?

I bought mine as a gift and I do not know how it is working. I'll try to find out for you but I don't know if this person uses it very much. Sorry I couldn't be more help. snorkie

I have never had that much pain from using it. Maybe you're applying too much pressure or using it too long. You don't want to go too deep nor use it for a long time. It only takes a few gentle sweeps across your face.

I really don't know. My Oral B is Oral B white. The problem I have with it is that after a month or so of using it it starts to (somehow)scratch up my tongue & lips then I change it. I seem to have to change it more often than the Oral B brand heads.
