In general, the oral cavity provides suitable conditions for various harmful bacteria to inhabit due to moisture, temperature, food residues, saliva, etc. In order to prevent disease, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the oral cavity and maintain good hygiene.

The most common examples of oral cleaning means are toothpaste and toothbrushes, and dental floss is also used as an auxiliary tool. In addition, in recent years, a liquid-type detergent for washing the oral cavity by putting it in the oral cavity has been widely used. Mouthwash can be put in the mouth and rinsed by gargling directly, or water or detergent can be sprayed into the mouth and teeth using a separate mouthwash to achieve a more effective cleaning effect than a toothbrush or dental floss.

Oral irrigators are generally of a water jet type, a pump type, a water gun type, etc. by spraying water or a cleaning agent into the oral cavity at a certain pressure to physically remove foreign substances and act on the interdental and the like with the cleaning agent.
