Phillips Sonicare Cordless Power Flosser 3000

Price: $79.95

With how important it is to keep our oral hygiene in check by brushing our teeth, there is a possible chance we often forget to floss or find it quite annoying. To make flossing much easier, we recommend the Phillips Sonicare Cordless Power Flosser 3000 to give your dad on Father’s Day or a graduated student to help bring ease into their life after working hard on their projects. 

The Phillips Sonicare Cordless Power Flosser 3000 reinvented the concept of flossing thanks to their QuadStream technology. The QuadStream technology allows for faster and more effective flossing, as the tip is a unique x-shape that separates the flow into 4 water jets to cover more area between teeth and along the gum line and get a deeper clean without having to use string floss. Other features owners can expect are the Pulse Wave technology for an easy guide from tooth to tooth, modes and intensity to select for comfort, an easy-to-fill 250ml reservoir for a 60-second clean, and many more. Your dads & grads will thank you for an easy, life-changing flossing technique!
