Microbubble irrigators

Microbubble irrigators are auxiliary devices recommended for use by people with problematic elements of the dentition: crowns, bridges, veneers and braces, implants, chronic inflammatory diseases. The therapeutic and prophylactic effect of modern hygiene devices allows you to remove dirt that the most advanced toothbrush cannot handle. The technology in demand prevents the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria, the formation of dental calculus, and the potential loss of teeth.

Using the appliance to cleanse the oral cavity is a common practice and has resulted in many variations. There is no single classification to reflect all the features of a modern rinse aid. Differentiation by type of work divides them into three types.

• Microbubble irrigator - the undisputed leader in consumer demand. Innovative technology, without additional risks of damaging problem areas, helps to gently and accurately clean any segments. It is especially relevant for patients who suffer from acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. The medicinal formulations are not supplied under pressure, and this excludes invasions. Therefore, it is considered that it is better than impulse, and more optimal than the already outdated monojet.

• Pulse can be used for teeth and mucous membranes in a healthy state. A stream of water for additional cleaning is directed into the oral cavity by impulses, under pressure.But the efficiency of cleaning from bacteria and food debris inherent in this type, according to practicing dentists, does not compensate for potential damage to the enamel, destruction of the protective layer of the mucous membrane.

• Monojet, previously very common, now find fewer and fewer recommendations. It is an outdated technology that is less effective than the methods that have replaced it, and the likely risks may outweigh the expected benefits.

Distinguish between models by field of application and size. Portable advise for travel, commuting, business trip. The compact device does not take up much space, but will be required if treatment or prevention is needed. It is not recommended as a permanent one, since it has insufficient functionality and power. Stationary ones are equipped with a volumetric reservoir and can be used at home for the whole family, provided that there are necessary attachments for everyone. There are easy-to-use devices that work from the pressure of water in the water supply system. Their inherent efficiency does not mean the absence of disadvantages, given that the quality of the liquid in the tap does not always correspond to sanitary standards.

The features of the device may depend on the use of directional attachments, the number of family members or the need for constant travel, the presence of problems with teeth or mucous membranes.

The action of an irrigator with microbubble technology is recognized by dentists as the most gentle and most effective, since the microbubble is the result of mixing water and air. This leads to the formation of bubbles with a negative charge invisible to the eye (less than 1 mm in a thousand times). Bursting, each of them creates a micro-hydraulic shock, splitting the particles to be removed. Their energy is minimal and, unlike the pressure of an impulse irrigator, is absolutely safe.

The variety of already created models with microbubble technology allows for a kind of top list of winners for consumers in each category of differentiation by size and application.

The best method is to listen to the opinions of experts. After all, it is the dentist who decides on the use of additional dental hygiene products. Of the types proposed by manufacturers, you must first choose the optimal one for urgent needs, and then - the one that suits the rest of the indicators. This is selection based on individual criteria.

In addition to individual criteria, there are general points to pay attention to:

• maximum completeness and functionality - different nozzles and operating modes, special devices;
• additional functions - UV cleaning, adjustment during operation, case for nozzles, mono- and pulsating jet, capacity of the liquid reservoir;
• instructions and guarantees from the manufacturer;
• charging method and duration battery (portable);
• design and colors (if there are options).

The buyer can be offered tempting options such as the parallel prevention of ENT diseases, with rinsing the nose or with a beautiful stand for the device. But the main criterion when buying an irrigator is its focus and suitability for oral hygiene of the entire family, child or user who needs it by the nature of their activity.

The variability of the devices may imply some differences in the manufacturer's guidelines for use. The type of nozzle is selected depending on age, diseases, as well as the optimal operating mode. There is a convenient large lever on the children's irrigator; an adult can be started by a switch or a button. Water, medicinal liquid, herbal infusion or composition from the manufacturer is poured into the reservoir. The main goal set for the person who turns on the irrigator is additional high-quality cleaning of the oral cavity.
