[0022] More specifically, the flow guiding valve 304 is further provided with a first through-hole 3041 and a second through-hole 3042, providing a gap between the outer wall of the gas inlet pipe 303 and the inner wall of the flow guiding valve 304.

Water enters the guiding valve 304 through the water pipe joint 312, flows through the first through-hole 3041 between the guiding valve 304 and the gas inlet pipe 303, then flows through the second through-hole 3042 into the intermediate assembly annular groove 261 and into the water pipe 25, then flows out of the water pipe 25 and into the handpiece connecting member 21, flows out of the water outlet hole 211 of the handpiece connecting member 21 and enters the gap between the nozzle head gas pipe 13 and the nozzle head connecting member 15 via the water inlet hole 151 of the nozzle head connecting member 15 (the annular sealing member 17 ensures that the water enters the gap from the water outlet hole 211 via the water inlet hole 151), and then flows out of the second nozzle hole 112 of the core member 11 to mix with the mixture from the nozzle head gas pipe 13, the mixing position being 3 to 5 mm away from the front end of the first nozzle hole 111. The light beam from the light-emitting element 308 in the terminal assembly 3 is transmitted from the terminal optical fiber 307 via the intermediate optical fiber 22 of the intermediate assembly 2 to the nozzle head optical fiber 14 in the nozzle head assembly 1 and emitted from the nozzle head optical fiber 14, thereby providing the dental sandblasting handpiece with an illumination function.
