Waterpik inventor for president?

#1 piece of advice I've taken from blogs so far: get a Waterpik. I had never heard of them before I started reading, and I went out and bought one a few days ago. It. Is. Amazing. They should give you one free with every set of braces (they cost enough to cover the price of the waterpik, for sure...) Seriously. Best investment you'll make in this whole process. (well, besides the process itself, I guess) And they have them at Bed Bath and Beyond, where you can use one of those million or so 20% off coupons they send out every week. Then not only do you have the most helpful braces-related gadget ever, you also have a good deal. :)
