Waterpik vs Flossing with Braces?

I have just acquired braces and my mother bought me a waterpik. My orthodontist quickly remarked that it wouldn't be enough, and that I should floss. My question is, how often should I floss instead of using the pik? Thank you.

    I'd assume every night. You wouldn't want stuff sitting between your teeth for days.
