I got myself a waterpik (water flosser) and got a sore throat for a few days after I first started using it. I'm going to assume this was due to the crud moving out from between my teeth. Recommend water flossers, I much prefer it to using conventional floss.
A warning though, water won't 100% wash away any scum. I recall reading an article somewhere saying that dentists still recommends conventional floss once in a while to remove any stubborn scum if you're using Waterpik. (That dentist doesn't say you should stop using Waterpik, though.)
