ABSTRACT:
A device for dislodging and removing matter from between and around teeth and gums through direct application of a high velocity jet of water and includes a quick disconnect coupling fitting (hereafter referred to as the "QD"), a sliding aerator, a quick disconnect plug fitting (hereafter referred to as the "plug"), a small diameter flexible tubing and a jet tip assembly. The QD replaces the standard lavatory faucet aerator. The lower end of the QD is shaped, slotted and grooved for connection to a mating plug. The plug is designed to insert and lock into the lower open end of the QD. A flexible tubing provides flow through capability and connects the plug to a jet tip assembly comprised of a handle and nozzle (jet tip). The plug, flexible tubing and jet tip assembly provide a temporary installation while the device is in use. When the device is not in use, a sliding aerator is restrained inside the QD at a lower position and functions as a normal aerator. Insertion and twisting of the plug into the bottom of the QD pushes the aerator upwards, and locks the plug into the QD. Manipulation of the hot and cold water taps controls water temperature and pressure. Removal of the plug allows the aerator to slide back down to the lower position and once again function as a normal aerator.
