The value of a good oral irrigator is unquestionable.  It helps you to clean your mouth and keep you teeth and gums free of debris that can aid in bacterial reproduction.  So you need one.  They work wonders for the health of your teeth and gums. 

However, they alone may not be enough. You will probably need additional information and that is where a very good book called, What You Should Know about Gum Disease comes in.  Get it, read it and love it. 

Ok, anyway, get a good oral irrigator, it will help.  There are big problems out there.  Two of the biggest are gum disease and problems with your teeth breaking / cracking due to poor nutrition.
