Not if you follow the directions to the letter. It would be very rare for that to happen and it would only involve some sort of abuse of the device. We always recommend them for our ortho patients. They are a valuable asset to cleaning when you have braces. Dr. Conrad
Not really
no you should use it
Waterflossers are great for braces! No risk of damage, the brackets or buttons will be plenty strong enough to withstand the highest level of jetstream.
