Waterpik's Extremely Portable Water Flosser Is At Its Lowest Price Of The Year

Get the travel-friendly Pearl water flosser for less than $50 right now.

Water flossers are a popular dental hygiene tool for many — and Waterpik is one of the most recognizable names in the game. The brand’s American Dental Association–approved tools are beloved by reviewers for their powerful plaque-busting abilities, but some of the more heavy-duty models can occupy more real estate, making them inconvenient for smaller bathrooms and unfeasible for traveling.

Luckily, there’s a streamlined option available at Amazon right now — Waterpik’s cordless “Pearl” model — for less than $50, which is almost 30% off its typical price of $69.99. It has a 4.4-star rating on Amazon and 8,751 reviewers have given the device five stars.

While most of Waterpik’s cordless water flosser are created fairly equal, this pared-down option makes a really smart buy for anyone who wants Waterpik’s powerful pressurized cleaning stream but doesn’t need a lot of bells and whistles. Based on the comparison chart on Waterpik’s website, the Pearl’s main difference from the brand’s normally twice-as-expensive “Advanced” model is that it lacks an LED charging light and isn’t safe for use in the shower, which don’t feel like dealbreakers to us. The Advanced offers three setting as opposed to the Pearl’s dual settings, but the Pearl pumps out 1,450 pulses per minute, which is more than the Advanced. (If any of these are dealbreakers, know that the Advanced model is priced at about $80 on Amazon right now.)

What the Pearl does offer is a promise to banish 99.99% percent of plaque bacteria from your — ahem — pearly whites with an effectiveness rate double that of dental floss. It comes with four interchangeable tips and a 7-ounce water reservoir for up to 45 seconds of continuous cleaning, and the higher-capacity battery life will power the device for a maximum of 36 minutes. It also has global voltage compatibility and a compact 3-inch footprint, so you can whisk it into your suitcase on your next trip without a second thought (as many of the reviewers below have done).

“My dentist recommended this product, and I’m glad I purchased it. Works well, easy to use, and doesn’t take up too much room in my suitcase when I travel.” —Amazon Customer

“I have braces, and at times, even with orthodontic flossers, it is hard to get in between my teeth or the brackets. This water flosser does the trick. The lowest setting is perfect for cleaning all of the small seeds or other food debris that gets caught in my brackets or between my teeth. It’s portable and cordless, and the charge lasts a long time. I just fill it with warm water, and it does a great job. One cycle will usually get all the debris loose, but on occasion, I fill the reservoir again and give my mouth a second cleaning before brushing. Highly recommend.” —Patti Mcclure

“My teeth are very close together, which makes standard flossing difficult. I love this water pick as it is easy to use and does a good job.” —Clarence Thistle

“This waterpik is made for travel. It only holds 45 seconds of flossing water. You have to refill the water chamber if you need more flossing. It's easy to hold and use. There are two power levels for the water floss. Effective.” —Rachel

“Having owned three previous non-Waterpik dental water cleaners that ultimately failed, I can highly recommend the genuine Waterpik as the best and most durable, and the highest quality.” — natca1

“My wife and I are dependent on the Waterpik in our bathroom. We are pleased to be able to use a travel version. We are very happy with this product.” —Peter Keim
