ISTANBUL (TR) - Personal hygiene continues to be of vital importance in the coronavirus pandemic, which spread rapidly all over the world after its emergence in the first months of 2019. Oral hygiene comes first. A recent study conducted in England on the relationship between oral health and coronavirus revealed that oral hygiene is effective in preventing airway infections, especially in patients over the age of 70. According to the research, oral diseases increase the risk of heart disease, which is among the high risk factors of Covid-19, by 25 percent, the risk of blood pressure disease by 20 percent, and the risk of diabetes 3 times. This table seems to make the public more conscious about oral hygiene. According to the data shared by Aquapick Turkey, the demand for mouth showers increased by 35% during the pandemic.

Evaluating the table, Aquapick Turkey CEO Dr. Mehmet Fırat Doğan said: “This year, the whole world started to pay more attention to personal hygiene due to the rapidly spreading coronavirus. During this period, our mouth shower sales increased by 35 percent. As experts say, oral hygiene is also very important to protect against the virus. At this point, mouth showers, which are scientifically proven to clean the teeth deeply by giving pressurized water to the mouth and provide 100 percent oral hygiene, provide many benefits from preventing airway infections to stopping gum bleeding, implant losses and plaque and tartar formation.”

2400 water shots per minute

Scientific studies have shown that oral shower provides serious protection for people at high risk of exposure to oral and respiratory pathogens (disease-causing viruses), Dr. Mehmet Fırat Doğan said, “The mouth showers we developed as Aquapick support the protection of oral health by shooting 2400 water per minute. With the highest pressure mouth shower in the world, its patented tip structure and many proven scientific features, it provides 100 percent hygiene in the mouth by entering every point that the toothbrush cannot reach. It has been proven in the doctoral dissertations and scientific publications that the mouth shower provides a much higher effect in a short time compared to the interface brush and floss and saves the users from these difficulties. It has also been proven that it increases blood circulation by 150 percent thanks to its massage effect in the mouth, and stops gum bleeding and recession by 98 percent at the end of the 3rd day. Therefore, the use of mouth shower is one of the most effective methods in preventing the formation of bacteria, dental calculus, tooth loss, gingivitis and many infections that occur with increased gum diseases due to the strengthening of the immune system, preventing bacteria harmful to the mouth through breathing, and insufficient oral hygiene.”

Also effective in implants and prostheses

Noting that oral douche is also effective in preventing the infection called periimplantitis that can occur in the tissues around the implant after dental implant applications, Doğan said, “Periimplantitis is one of the biggest problems of the dentistry industry. The most common reason for this is that post-implant hygiene is not maintained sufficiently. It has been proven that especially the floss used in the cleaning of the implant base leaves residue and causes periimplantitis, and with the interface brush used under the prosthesis, the dental floss does not provide enough hygiene and also causes tissue deformation. However, low pressure to the bottom of the implant and prosthetic lower in Turkey, ineffective throwing technique and structure due to improper ends of the patients after the use of ineffective oral hygiene shower still seems unable to provide enough. In the presentations made in international prestigious journals and world dentistry congresses, it is seen that the use of Aquapick Oral Shower ensures a perfect hygiene in the cleaning of the implant periphery and prosthesis and protects patients' implants and prostheses in a healthy way.”

No need to change parts lifelong

Doğan pointed out that their focus is on customer satisfaction and said, “We have been observing consumer rights, which constitute a major problem in our country, with the Aquapick Consumer Rights Laws that we have created in our country since 2017, with the principle of immediate service, without leaving any of our customers unpaid. In this context, Aquapick products, which we have developed for lifelong use without the need for any part replacement, provide the necessary support without destroying the errors caused by solution, etc. to the customer, and we provide excellent technical support with a service speed that is solved in just one hour at a rate of 98 percent. In cases such as breakage of the device, instead of directing it to buy new products, we provide our customers with the opportunity to use them for a lifetime with small prices with the spare parts stock we keep. We respond to even the smallest questions 24/7, in cases where we do not have an office in the province where our customer is located, we take the product with cargo and intervene on the same day and deliver it to their homes free of charge. We give confidence to our customers, where the number of users of the product is more than one, with many support such as additional accessory support, explaining how to use the product according to each mouth structure by our oral and dental health experts.”

Investments continue

Finally, announcing their plans for 2021, Aquapick Turkey CEO Dr. Mehmet Fırat Doğan stated that R&D investments will continue. Doğan said, "As Aquapick, we continue to work continuously for the development and more effective use of the mouth shower with the intense investments we have made. In 2020, we further developed the AQ-300 model, the world's most scientifically proven mouth shower, and the world's smartest mouth shower, fully equipped with sensors. We have launched AQ-350, thus demonstrating the use of new generation sensor technologies in the mouth shower. We will continue to increase our investments and employment in 2021, which is predicted to be a year of economic shrinkage in the world. By increasing our customer service, sales network and accessibility within the framework of our completely customer-oriented service approach. We would like to further reinforce the trust in us. Many more scientific publications we will carry out together with prestigious universities will be brought to our country, and Aquapick's incision in all areas of oral and dental health, from gum diseases, orthodontic treatment, use of implants and prostheses, to general oral hygiene. We want to show that it offers n solutions.”
