Costco Haul - Philips Sonicare AirFloss

On December 22, my husband and I went to Costco to have my tires rotated. That's why we walked in Costco and unexpectedly found that Sonicare AirFloss was on sale there. We didn't know that they sell Sonicare AirFloss. We were going to buy two Airfloss at Target that day! We were lucky because Costco was obviously selling ones much cheaper. Target was selling one for $79.99 ($159.98 for two) , and Costco was selling two pack AirFloss with two extra nozzles and two tongue cleaners for $99.99 with a $20 instant saving!

I hadn't been interested in Sonicare Airfloss at all before or had never heard of it, but we decided to try it because his colleague who has been keeping his oral health in good nick for decades told him that using Sonicare AirFloss was the most effective way to keep his good oral health.

However, Airfloss is not reasonable comparing to normal dental floss because its nozzle needs to be replaced every six months. In addition, I read some reviews that it's more likely to break in a few months or years. However, Sonicare is offering their two and half year warranty, so I don't have to be worried about it too much. :) Unlike Japan, dental treatment cost is way too expensive in the U.S., so I think that investing money for oral hygiene products ends up actually being saving a huge amount of medical fee.

We use AirFloss with only mouthwash, so we began to run out of mouthwash more quickly than ever before. Many people have left reviews that normal dental floss is more effective than AirFloss, but it is perfect for people who don't like flossing, and their oral hygiene has really improved. We noticed that using AirFloss is more fun than using ordinary floss, so we began to use it once or twice a day even though I didn't use to like flossing before. (Unlike me, he never skipped flossing though.) By using it for a week now, my husband has told me that his gingival bleeding has stopped. Apparently, his gums are getting healthier and healthier by using it. We are looking forward to our next dental checkup.
