ABSTRACT:
Apparatus including an oral syringe for attachment to a shower head for cleaning the teeth and gums while showering. The oral syringe is connected to water flowing under pressure to the shower head through a unique valving assembly which diverts a manually adjustable portion of the water flowing to the shower head into a passageway lying at right angles to the direction of the flow of the water into the shower head. A manually adjustable valve stem including an O-ring valve is located in the passageway and controls the flow of water through an axial passageway in the valve stem. A flexible hose connected to the rear end of the valve stem conveys the water to the oral syringe. The valve stem also controls a diverter valve which can be adjusted to cut off the flow of water to the shower head in the event of low water line pressure to insure sufficient water pressure to the oral syringe for proper cleaning of the teeth and gums.
