Oral irrigator

（重定向自Water pick）

An oral irrigator (also called a dental water jet) is a home care device that uses a stream of pulsating water to remove plaque and food debris between teeth and below the gumline, and improve gingival health.

The first oral irrigator was developed in Fort Collins, Colorado in 1962, by dentist Dr. Gerald Moyer and engineer John Mattingly. Moyer and Mattingly went on to found Aqua Tec, the predecessor of Water Pik, Inc. Since that time, oral irrigators have been evaluated in more than 50 scientific studies. They have been tested and shown effective on people in periodontal maintenance, and those with gingivitis, diabetes, orthodontic appliances, crowns, and implants. A 2008 meta-analysis of whether or not oral irrigation is beneficial as an adjunct to tooth brushing concluded that "the oral irrigator does not have a beneficial effect in reducing visible plaque" but suggests it may be beneficial to gingival health in addition to regular oral hygiene measures. A study at the University of Southern California found that a 3 second treatment of pulsating water (1,200 pulses per minute) at medium pressure (70 psi) removed 99.9% of plaque biofilm from treated areas.
