Oral Breeze ShowerBreeze | Oral Irrigator & Water Pick Teeth Cleaner for Braces, Gums, Implants | Shower-Powered, No Batteries, No Mess | Adjustable Pressure & Unlimited Warm Water

I've owned many water flossers and thought having a unit insalled in my shower "how convenient", so I made the purchase. Nice quality, easy to install, no problems. But, I was having a problems getting used to the tip, so I made a few modifications. I added a traditional flosser handheld wand, by removing what came with the unit and inserting the new wand tube into the larger tube, added a few drops of super glue to cement in place. I'm good with the results! I've added a few photos which I rarely include in my reviews, but I did this time!

I do not normally write these so that alone should tell you I’m satisfied. This thing is amazing. An oral care game changer. My teeth feel immaculately clean and it is very easy to use. I’ve used waterpicks in the past but they always annoyed me with how loud they were, dribbling all over the bathroom aiming for the sink, and how often I had to refill them. This is quiet because it just uses water, you can adjust the water temp, and you are in the shower so a mess isn’t a problem. Be careful with managing the water flow and make sure you use enough teflon tape when installing.

Well-made and solid. Attached fairly quickly to my shower head, but had to use some of the tape that came with it, to wrap the threads to stop the water from spraying out the sides. (Once installed, hasn't leaked a bit). It also comes with a second nozzle (both are removable) so two can use this. The ShowerBreeze is a great way to irrigate teeth and the gum massage feels awesome. I don't have to worry about water getting everywhere as with gadgets attached to a sink, and it's hassle-free in terms of the kind of maintenance needed for stand alone units with water reservoirs -- which need regular cleaning to keep from getting gross. Also - you can use this at a pretty good pressure without reducing shower pressure - meaning I can use it and take a good shower at the same time. I love that! Some reviewers have commented that it tickles too much and is therefore not comfortable -- but with regular use over 2 or 3 weeks, I've really been jonesing to increase pressure in a way which DOES severely decrease or even eliminate the shower stream - which is why I gave it four instead of five stars. Still, it works great, I've simply reached the stage where I can tolerate far more pressure but I don't want my shower to shut off while I do it! Beware of one thing when getting started: AIM the nozzle so it doesn't accidentally spray right down your throat and choke you out! Sounds elementary, but I did that the first time I used it - which was also the last time! All in all, I am really glad I got this and I use pretty much every day. It will not eliminate the need for flossing, but in tandem with flossing, brushing, and regular cleanings, this is a wonderful little tool as an adjunct to a regular oral hygiene program that's easy and pleasant to implement. I recommend it!

I believe the product is great when it's working correctly. I haven't really noticed any issues as other have had with reduced shower pressure. Obviously it will reduce when using the pik but otherwise no issues. Unfortunately my problem is the hose keeps coming off the the pik. It's not held on very strongly, just pushed over a feathered coupling. With the water pressure low it will stay on, but that seems to do nothing for my teeth. When it's high enough to effectively work, it keeps blowing the hose off. I've spent the last 30 min relentlessly trying to find a way to contact the seller and have them possibly offer a fix for this, but there's literally no links on both my order history or sellers page I can find to contact them, so no luck there. I would easily rate this 5 starts if I was able to contact the seller and they were able to offer me a fix. --[EDIT/UPDATE]-- Shortly after my writing my review and also contacting the company about the hose issue mentioned above, I received an email reply saying they're shipping me a new product. I actually didn't request a replacement thinking I'd have the same issue, but they sent one none-the-less. A few days later I then received a call from the owner himself wanting to know how the replacement was working out. I was thoroughly impressed with this and we had a great conversation. After reading my review and support call he knew exactly what the issue was and said that it was corrected with the new product shipped to me. I told him that I'd found an inexpensive fix already though by using a small 5/32" hose clamp which seemed to fix the problem. I told him that I was satisfied with the fix and would actually send him back the unopened replacement. To my surprise, he wouldn't have it; He said no customer of his was going to use his product with a workaround hose clamp fix! But he also wanted me to test the new product to see that the error was corrected, which I agreed with him. I've had the new unit installed for several days now and to my surprise it seems to be working just fine. So as promised in my initial review, they get 5 stars :) Great product and exceptional customer support. I was thoroughly impressed! Thanks Tom! --[1 Year Later]-- Before I begin, let me give a brief back story. About 5 years ago my dentist advised me to have a scaling and root plaining procedure done due to concerns of early periodontal disease (I was ~30 at the time). This is where they take a mini-ruler-type device and measure how far down it can go between your teeth and gums. At the time, most of my teeth had less than good measurements, with ~3 being high concern, so I took his advice and paid for the ~$350 procedure. About 2 years later I switched dentists, and he also noted concerns about my gums. I told him I had the procedure done a few years ago; however, he was convinced it either didn't work, the previous dentist didn't do it correctly, or I was just mistaken about what procedure I had. I have a history of sticking money into dental work that's went bad, so I wasn't interested in paying for the procedure again and declined his advice. I bought the ShowerBreeze in Dec, 2011 as a X-mas gift for my wife and I, but mostly in preparation for braces I was having installed Jan, 2012. I had a few initial issues with the product (detailed above), but received a replacement product and have not had any issues since. Fast forward 1 year: I've used the ShowerBreesze [almost] every day since and had my 6 mo. checkup about a month ago. Both the dentist and dental hygienist were simply blown away at how amazing my teeth and gums were, even more so given I have braces (apparently people with braces are highly problematic). They literally told me I had the cleanest teeth & braces they'd seen in years! The BEST part though, is ALL signs of periodontal disease were gone!!! Not only gone, but my gums actually grew back to above normal standards. I'll admit I have become obsessive with cleaning my teeth since I had braces put in, but brushing and flossing alone will not prevent or cure periodontal disease. Otherwise, the only change in my cleaning habit was using the ShowerBreeze. I've never used other water pick type cleaners before, and I'm sure other products can and do produce similar results, but I will attest that the ShowerBreeze does for sure. $30 and a year of use was more successful than all my professional periodontal work! I actually look forward to using this every day! The level/feeling of clean my teeth get from this is something you just have to try for yourself. When my wife first opened this on X-mas, she gave me kind of a look that said she'll never use it. A few weeks later she told me she tried it out, but it tickled her mouth/tongue too much and quit using it. I don't know if this is common, but it did this to me too at first. However, if you use it daily, it goes away after about 2 weeks (believe me, it's worth sticking it out!). Once that was over though, she said she too can't believe how much cleaner her mouth feels. The only drawback so far is that the only time I can really use it is in the shower. I know they make sink versions of this, but when using in the shower there's a lot of spray! A lot! Using something like this over the bathroom sink would cause almost the entire mirror and counter to become soaked in water. There's also likely to be far less pressure from a sink version too. When using the ShowerBreeze, I have the shower turned full on and the bypass valve at about 90%, so the water pressure is pretty intense. Though it works well for cleaning out all the small bits and pieces of crud that get stuck in my braces. tl;dr - Pretty sure ShowerBreeze cured my periodontal disease issues and recently gave me the best dental exam ever!

This is a wonderful product. Now that I have attached it correctly to my shower head and presenting no leaks, I have unlimited water supply when water flossing. My portable waterpik I now use when I travel. I do not have to use my waterpik on the sink and have water splashing all over the mirror, faucet, etc. This product was easy to install. Highly recommended if you want healthy teeth and gums. After each use, I just leave it dangling straight down so all the water will drain out of the hose. I wish they have a version where the hose is coiled (like the cord of a landline telephone).

Original Review: I give this product a 5 for the clever idea but a 3 for implementation. Although generally of high quality (brass diverter and the new-style coiled 6' tubing), the handle and tips are problematic. I ordered two extra tips and of the four one shoots out water at the joint, two dribble, and one seems OK. Each of the four tips have wildly differing spray patterns. The cleverness of the design outweighs the quality shortcomings, though, especially since it is a shower unit so who cares if the water goes all over the place. The low pressure high volume approach takes a little getting used to if you are used to the low volume high pressure approach of a Water Pik. The overspray on to the roof of the mouth is indeed maddeningly ticklish but I imagine that will become bearable after a few weeks of adaptation. The massaging effect of a pulsating Water Pik is definitely more pleasurable and arguably more thorough, but again, the simple shower convenience still wins out with a "good enough". Having it handy means it will be used everyday. I wish they had not used a flow restricting valve for the diverter. Everyone already is going to have a flow restrictor in their shower head except those that don't want a flow restrictor. My guess is that it was the only kind they could source. Fortunately, the valve is easily disassembled and not so easily modified (drill out the valve vane). I don't imagine this being much of a problem if you are already using a flow restricted shower head and are used to it. It probably won't make any difference then. Also, as already mentioned by others, use a washer when installing if you have one handy or at least put many layers of the teflon tape or it will probably leak if only hand tightening. I got the combined shower/sink kit but after seeing the mess it makes I am not even going to open the sink version. The shower one is the way to go and definitely get the 6 foot version especially now that they are using a nicely compact coiled tubing. The added length opens many imaginative use possibilities. Edit: After a month of use I have become very fond of the 6' Shower Breeze. I also want to temper some of my criticisms. The leaky tips would all be fixed free under their warranty (I had some better o-rings so I fixed them myself) so that should not put anyone off. The spray style used is pretty much a safety requirement for a device which will have variability in the source pressure of different users. You can't really hurt yourself like you could if the spray was more needle-like and you had a very high water pressure source. It is definitely adequate in pressure in normal use and moving it rapidly back and forth during use does simulate pulsating. Also, most importantly, the tickling does go away after using it a while (or at least I don't pay attention to it anymore). This is a very good and effective product. I do wish the Oral Breeze owner who monitors the reviews here would stop clicking on the unhelpful button whenever he sees a negative review (in an attempt to drop them to the back of the default review queue). Work on fixing the minor problems reported instead. It only needs a few improvements. Edit: Not a problem just an observation. In normal use the spray openings in the tips will gradually wear out (6-8 months in my case) so it is a good idea to include a spare set when you order. Edit: It looks like they did fix the tip o-ring problem as of Jan 2013 according to the new product description. And a new valve is mentioned and the picture does look like it could be flow through rather than restricted. If so, then great and this is truly a 5 star product. It only took 2 years... Edit: Also they have discontinued the nice coiled plastic tubing in favor of straight tubing. Should still work fine just not as good looking and now gets in the way of squeegeeing the shower wall. Finally, I installed another one and I can say the valve is now non-restrictive and much better quality. At this point I would raise the rating to 5-stars.

I purchased this product because I have used a Waterpik flosser before but didnt like the fact that nearly every Waterpik had a water supply that had to be refilled. If you like to take your time to make sure to get each tooth on both sides, the Waterpik would require refilling during one cleaning. In an effort to find an unlimited water source water flosser I came across this product, the ShowerBreeze Water Jet. Seemed promising with nearly 600 reviews and 4.5 stars some companies pay to have that type of rating. For $35 including shipping I figured, why not try it. Shipping was prompt. The box in which the Water Jet came in advertised a 30-day money-back no-hassle guarantee which was comforting. Installation was a breeze, a little plumbers tape goes a long way in preventing leaks. The Water Jet works by providing a valve (metal) to place in between the showerhead and the spigot of your shower. You can position the valve to use the Water Jet only, Showerhead only, or in between but the pressure of both will obviously be lowered. There doesnt appear to be any pressure regulating component to the Water Jet which means whatever your water pressure is, is the pressure youre going to get whether it is high or low. The unit came with a little sticky tape wall mount for the tips they provide which allows the unit to stay out of the way when not in use. The Water Jets plastic tube has a rubbery type of feel to it and is quite flexible without kinking. +++++++++++++ Main review +++++++++++++ The tips are plastic and are the main subject of this review. ShowerBreeze advises this: " Tips are designed to give a fan spray, not a needle spray, which could damage delicate gum tissue. " Being used to the "needle spray" of the Waterpik, I was fully expecting this would be different but maybe even more enjoyable to use. After flipping the valve I was put in a bit of shock. I tried to wield the thing in my mouth but this "fan" was spraying everywhere. No matter what position I put the unit in to clean my teeth I received an endless spray that was tickling the roof of my mouth. This was not the more enjoyable experience I expected. Needless to say I tried it out over a weeks time forcing myself to be nearly tickled to death in an effort to 'get used to it' to no avail. I ordered extra tips when ordering the unit and got my wife to try it. Telling her it worked wonderfully and without any other hints of how poorly this worked she used it and had the same reaction. I tried testing different tips and low and behold EVERY single one of them had a "fan spray" that was different than the other one spraying in jets in one area in front of it and not the other. This simply comes down to cheap and poor manufacturing practices and/or little to no quality checks in this product before being shipped to customers. The reason ShowerBreeze has this "fan spray" disclaimer is because of these horrible tolerances to their product. Did it clean my teeth? Hell, I dont know. As inconsistent as the sprays were coming out of tips, I would say it cleaned some areas better than others. This was definately not the 4.5 out of 5 stars product I was expecting. That 30-day guarantee came in handy and while they do say their guarantee is "no questions asked" and they did ask me why I was returning it. They had no problem taking it back and giving me my refund. I'll try to look for my unlimited water, water flosser somewhere else.

Had a few different Shower Flossers in the past, and this one definitely has a high quality look and feel to it. The water control valve itself is well made, unlike a few other ones I had previously. Extra long hose makes using it easy and convenient. It comes with a small roll of teflon tape for installation, and a storage bar that uses suction cups to attach to the shower wall to hold the flosser when not in use. In the picture you will see another valve that I installed, to turn off the shower stream while flossing. It saves alot of water that way. Simple install, just unscrew your existing shower handle, clean the threads, wrap a few turns of the teflon tape, and hand tighten the unit on. Then reattach your shower hose. No tools needed! It works great, easily adjust the water flow to your liking, and enjoy clean teeth! My dentist could actually tell that I was using some kind of flossing device! It does the job well!
