摘要： A water flosser is provided that may include a base, a reservoir positioned above the base, a lid, and a handle in fluid communication with the reservoir such as by a hose. The reservoir of the water flosser may include a recess formed in a reservoir wall for receipt of a hose support structure. An input device (e.g., a power button) may be positioned adjacent an upper portion of the water flosser, such as in or adjacent the lid. Actuation of the input device may include application of a force downward toward the base. The water flosser may include a motor having a dual output shaft, with one end of the shaft being associated with a rotary encoder or other sensing device to determine an operational characteristic of the motor. The motor may be driven by a power source such as a rechargeable battery.

摘要： An oral irrigation device including a reservoir, a tip, and a pump. The pump is operative to draw fluid from the reservoir and propel the fluid to the tip. The pump includes a pump body fluidly connected to the reservoir and the tip, the pump body having an interior wall defining a pump chamber, the pump chamber terminating in an open end and a force exerting assembly that is receive within the pump chamber. The force exerting assembly is movable between a first position and a second position and includes a force exerting member and a compressible sealing member received around the force exerting member. The sealing member engages the interior wall of the pump body during movement from the first position to the second position and movement from the second position to the first position to prevent fluids from escaping the open end of the pump body.

摘要： An apparatus for providing a pressurized water stream for cleaning gums and teeth. The embodiment includes a base unit defining a cavity. The cavity contains a pump, which may move pressurized water from a reservoir to a tip in fluid communication with the pump. The pump may be secured within the cavity by at least one vibration reduction mount. Fluid may flow from the reservoir and ultimately into the tip to provide oral irrigation and/or cleaning of the teeth, gums, and tongue. The base may include a plurality of footings that elevate the base unit above a surface supporting the base unit. Also, the base may include a basin for receiving a reservoir. The basin may include a reservoir valve initially biased to a closed position and operationally attached to the reservoir, and a tube projection connected to the base unit and opening the valve when the reservoir is received within the basin. The basin and the reservoir are configured to guide the reservoir valve adjacent to the tube projection.

摘要： A therapeutic gum irrigator is provided for subgingival periodontal irrigation with a chemotherapeutic fluid. The irrigator includes a housing surrounding at least a portion of the irrigator, a reservoir connected to the housing to retain the fluid, and a cannula configured for subgingival periodontic insertion in fluid communication with the reservoir. The irrigator further includes a neck connected to the housing and separating the reservoir from the cannula. A pump in fluid communication with the reservoir and the cannula includes a displacing element movable between first and second positions and a biasing element that biases the displacing element to the first position. A lever connected to the housing can mechanically move the displacing element to the second position, expelling a predefined volume of the fluid through the cannula. The biasing element causes the displacing element to return to the first position upon release of the thumb lever by the user.

摘要： A method and apparatus for oral hygiene, in particular having an oral hygiene device similar to a WATER PIK® brand device which has a pump with an inlet port and an outlet nozzle. A reservoir is placed in a sink above a drain and below a faucet and water from the faucet is adjusted for temperature and flows into the reservoir and over and into the drain of the sink. A conduit is provided between the inlet of the pump and the outlet of the reservoir so that, in use, a person can first adjust the temperature of the water in the reservoir and then turn on the pump and use the oral hygiene device as with any other oral hygiene apparatus while either allowing the water to continue to flow from the faucet at the desired temperature; or, if desired, to stop the flow and put medication into the container before use so that the water and medication solution is used rather than just water.

摘要： An apparatus for providing a pressurized water stream for cleaning gums and teeth. The embodiment includes a base unit defining a cavity. The cavity contains a pump, which may move pressurized water from a reservoir to a tip in fluid communication with the pump. A flow control knob may be turned to selectively adjust the water pressure supplied by the tip between a minimum and a maximum value. The reservoir may be removed from the base unit so that it may be filled with the fluid. The reservoir may support a container for storing tips or other items. Fluid may flow from the reservoir and ultimately into the tip to provide oral irrigation and/or cleaning of the teeth, gums, and tongue.

摘要： A device for dislodging and removing matter from between and around teeth and gums through direct application of a high velocity jet of water and includes a quick disconnect coupling fitting (hereafter referred to as the "QD"), a sliding aerator, a quick disconnect plug fitting (hereafter referred to as the "plug"), a small diameter flexible tubing and a jet tip assembly. The QD replaces the standard lavatory faucet aerator. The lower end of the QD is shaped, slotted and grooved for connection to a mating plug. The plug is designed to insert and lock into the lower open end of the QD. A flexible tubing provides flow through capability and connects the plug to a jet tip assembly comprised of a handle and nozzle (jet tip). The plug, flexible tubing and jet tip assembly provide a temporary installation while the device is in use. When the device is not in use, a sliding aerator is restrained inside the QD at a lower position and functions as a normal aerator. Insertion and twisting of the plug into the bottom of the QD pushes the aerator upwards, and locks the plug into the QD. Manipulation of the hot and cold water taps controls water temperature and pressure. Removal of the plug allows the aerator to slide back down to the lower position and once again function as a normal aerator.
