[0002] Oral care is the cleaning and protection of teeth, tongue, palate, cheeks and other parts in the oral cavity. A water flosser is an auxiliary tool for oral care, which is a tool that uses the impact of pulsed water flow to clean teeth and dental floss spaces. It mainly includes portable and desktop types. The water flosser uses a water pump to generate high pressure and pulsed water flow to flush the oral cavity, so as to achieve the purpose of removing fine food residues and harmful bacteria adhering to teeth or gums. At present, the water used by users for flossing is mostly natural water. If used in a cold state, it may cause problems such as gum allergy and inflammation. Moreover, the bacteria contained in cold water will cause secondary pollution and harm to teeth, and it is not convenient to use in winter. Based on this, adjusting the water temperature of the water flosser to a temperature (38 - 0 °C) that feels comfortable in the oral cavity will greatly improve the user's water flosser experience.
