Abstract
An oral irrigator system having an ergonomic casing with a pliable nozzle assembly, and coupled to a detachable and refillable fluid reservoir. The ergonomic casing contains a power source and a pump mechanism. The detachable nozzle head delivers a pulsating jet of fluid with adjustable speed into the oropharyngeal cavity. When the system is turned on, the rechargeable battery activates the diaphragm pump to draw fluid from the reservoir using a fluid pipe and delivers the fluid to the tip of the nozzle head.
