Abstract: ABSTRACT iI A gingival massage tip for a mechanical water flosser is disclosed. The tip comprises an elongated rigid tubular body having an ergonomically angled configuration and a bulb-shaped distal head provided with a plurality of micro-perforations. The perforated bulb head distributes pressurized fluid into multiple low- velocity microjets, producing a gentle, diffused spray suitable for gingival massage and stimulation. A proximal coupling portion enables detachable attachment to a water flosser body while maintaining fluid sealing during operation. The gingival massage tip is particularly suited for improving gingival circulation, reducing inflammation, and enhancing comfort during oral hygiene routines. The invention provides a therapeutic alternative to conventional single-stream flosser tips and expands the functionality of mechanical water flossers for preventive and periodontal care.
