Re: beyondhom periodontal

You could use it at the kitchen sink?  Yeah yuk, but if that's the  
only choice, I would.  (Or, I'd just use it in the bathroom  
anyway...)  I used to use a cordless WaterPik and liked it very well,  
but they have this really stupid design, that you can't replace the  
battery.  So when the battery (started getting weaker and weaker and  
then) burnt out after six months and I realized it was dead, I was too  
disgusted to get another.  (It does come with I think a two-year  
warranty, but of course by then I had lost all the documentation.)

My mother's bathroom was a sort of graveyard of cordless dental  
irrigators, and I guess now I know why!
