1. A teeth cleaning apparatus, comprising:
a first liquid reservoir, used for storing a teeth cleaning liquid;
a teeth cleaner, including a teeth cleaner body and a second liquid reservoir fixedly connected to the teeth cleaner body, the second liquid reservoir transmitting the teeth cleaning liquid to the teeth cleaner body during teeth cleaning, and the second liquid reservoir being further provided with a check valve that is opened when the teeth cleaning liquid is injected into the second liquid reservoir;
a connector, which is separated from the teeth cleaner during teeth cleaning, and allows the teeth cleaner to be connected thereon after teeth cleaning, the connector being provided with a liquid feeding nozzle, and the liquid feeding nozzle being in communication with the second liquid reservoir through the check valve when the connector is connected to the teeth cleaner; and
a liquid conveyer, used for transmitting the teeth cleaning liquid in the first liquid reservoir to the second liquid reservoir through the liquid feeding nozzle,
wherein the connector includes a connecting seat that allows the teeth cleaner to be placed thereon, and the teeth cleaning apparatus further comprises a controller configured to control the liquid conveyer to be turned on and turned off, wherein the controller includes a pressure sensing module and a control module; the pressure sensing module is disposed on the connecting seat, to detect a pressure exerted by the teeth cleaner on the connecting seat and send the pressure to the control module; and the control module determines, according to the pressure exerted by the teeth cleaner on the connecting seat, whether the second liquid reservoir is fully filled with the teeth cleaning liquid, so as to control the liquid conveyer to be turned off.
 
15. A teeth cleaning apparatus, comprising:
a first liquid reservoir, used for storing a teeth cleaning liquid;
a teeth cleaner, including a teeth cleaner body and a second liquid reservoir fixedly connected to the teeth cleaner body, the second liquid reservoir transmitting the teeth cleaning liquid to the teeth cleaner body during teeth cleaning, and the second liquid reservoir being further provided with a check valve that is opened when the teeth cleaning liquid is injected into the second liquid reservoir;
a connector, which is separated from the teeth cleaner during teeth cleaning, and allows the teeth cleaner to be connected thereon after teeth cleaning, the connector being provided with a liquid feeding nozzle, and the liquid feeding nozzle being in communication with the second liquid reservoir through the check valve when the connector is connected to the teeth cleaner; and
a liquid conveyer, used for transmitting the teeth cleaning liquid in the first liquid reservoir to the second liquid reservoir through the liquid feeding nozzle,
wherein the connector includes a connecting seat that allows the teeth cleaner to be placed thereon, and the second liquid reservoir is further provided with an exhaust structure at an upper portion thereof; the connector is further provided with a sidewall, and the sidewall is further provided with an exhaust driving structure; and when the teeth cleaner is placed on the connecting seat, the exhaust driving structure on the sidewall of the connector drives the exhaust structure to be opened, so that an interior of the second liquid reservoir is in communication with an atmosphere.
