In the U.S., people search for "Waterpik" twice as many times as many times as "water flosser" on the Internet, and Jiebi, which has a 96% market share, has almost become synonymous with oral irrigators. For the Chinese market, Jiebi plays the role of consumer education in the field of oral irrigators and has an absolute leading position.
As the inventor of the oral irrigator, the world's first desktop oral irrigator launched by Jiebi in 1967 is still the reference model of the emerging oral irrigator brand, and the first high-pressure pulse technology is the mainstream cleaning technology in the field of oral irrigators, that is, the use of air piston pump to continuously pressurize the water, the faster the frequency, the stronger the cleaning ability. Since its birth, Jiebi has obtained more than 60 patents, which is unmatched in the field of oral irrigators, and it is currently the only oral irrigator brand certified by the American Dental Association (ADA).
With a frequency of 1200 times/minute, which balances cleaning efficiency and safety, it is the signature high-voltage pulse frequency of Jiebi, which is superior to non-pulsed technologies such as Panasonic and Philips in terms of cleaning effect. As the ace product of Jiebi, the Aquarius Designer Series (WP-660EC/WP-670EC), which tops the list of Best Reviews and other recommended products, is the representative of desktop oral irrigators, with a high-value streamlined body, and its technology and nozzle are also a model for most pulse oral irrigators to follow. The 600ml water tank is placed on the upper part of the main unit, and there is a nozzle storage area on the side, which is very simple and compact. It is equipped with a number of functional nozzles such as plaque, periodontal bags and tongues to achieve all-round oral cleaning, and the orthodontic nozzle is especially suitable for cleaning the residue in the braces.
The WP-660EC has 10 levels of water pressure adjustment, which is recommended for novice users to start from a lower gear and gradually adapt to avoid discomfort caused by overstimulation of the gums. The high and low orderly imitation manual massage function, similar to spa for the gums, can effectively relieve the pain of orthodontic people after braces reinforcement. The water pause button on the WP-660EC handle prevents powerful water from splashing around when switching from one side to the other. As an upgraded version, WP-670EC has no obvious improvement in function, but the metal knob is more textured, and there is no gear to adjust at will, and WP-660EC is about 1200 yuan, and there are more colors to choose from.
Due to the great influence of misaligned dentition on the development of facial features, the trend of orthodontic infancy is becoming more and more obvious. The WP-250EC is easy to operate, with a medium water tank capacity and three levels of water pressure adjustment, making it ideal for children during orthodontics. If you often shop overseas, you will find that the green and white color scheme of the overseas version (WP-260EC) is more vibrant, and the accompanying dress up stickers will make the tooth flushing process full of childlike fun, and the price is within 500 yuan.
In addition to the desktop oral irrigator, the world's first portable oral irrigator was also pioneered by Jiebi. Since the portable oral irrigator needs to hold both the main unit and the water tank in the hand, in order to be lightweight, Jiebi controls the water tank capacity of the portable oral irrigator at 150ml-200ml, and the pulse gear and water pressure range are significantly reduced compared with the desktop oral irrigator. At present, among the portable oral irrigators on sale, the WP-450EC with more than 500 yuan is the most cost-effective, with two adjustable water pressures and a water tank capacity of 200ml, which can basically meet a simple oral irrigation.
If you pursue a lighter portable oral irrigator, you might as well try the WP-560EC priced at about 1000 yuan, although the capacity of the 180ml water tank is slightly smaller than that of WP-450EC, but the weight is half lighter, and there are three levels of water pressure adjustment, pulse and water pressure are more stable, and the patented appearance is easier to grasp and not slippery. Both the WP-450EC and WP-560EC are equipped with a dock charger, which can last one to two weeks on a single charge, but the charging efficiency is not very high. If you need to travel on business, it's best to fully charge the battery a day in advance.
At present, most of Jiebi's oral irrigator products can reach the waterproof level of IPX7, which is guaranteed in safety. However, for the desktop oral irrigator that has been used for many years, it will be more likely to have the problem of damage to the accessories, in addition to the problem of the inner core of the machine that needs to be repaired, the basic accessories can be purchased and assembled by the consumers themselves, and the maintenance in place can reach a long life of more than five years, which is quite durable.
It should be noted that there is a large price difference between various e-commerce platforms, and you should compare them more when buying, and overseas shopping is also a good choice. However, most of the Jiebi products returned from overseas shopping are 110V/60Hz, and they must be equipped with transformers for domestic use. The power of the oral irrigator is generally within 20W, and the transformer above 30W can easily be competent.
