Classic Tip
The Classic Jet Tip is designed for regular use. It provides deep cleaning between teeth and below the gum line, which helps to maintain good oral health and ward off gum disease.
Best for: Daily Use
Replacement frequency: 6 months
Suggested gear of pressure: the mode depends entirely on your comfort
How to use: After putting the tip in your mouth, begin the unit routine by targeting the back teeth and tracing along the gumline. Pause between each tooth to allow for sufficient cleansing power – angle tip towards gums at 90 degrees while keeping a short distance from them so that debris is effectively removed and flows out of the mouth with water.

Orthodontic Tip
The orthodontic tip features a conical brush designed at the end to remove the edges and corners of the braces and is particularly effective at removing plaque from teeth with braces.
Best for: Daily Use by people with braces and orthodontics
Replacement frequency: 3 months
Suggested gear of pressure: Soft mode
How to use: After putting the tip in your mouth, begin the unit routine by targeting the back teeth and tracing along the gumline. Use the brush head to gently brush around the orthodontic brackets or aligners to remove food debris, being careful not to let the brush touch the gums to avoid injury and bleeding. When cleaning the gum crevices, you can let the jet of water rinse and clean along the gum line, pausing slightly between each tooth to get enough cleaning power – the tip is at a 90-degree angle to the gums while keeping a short distance from the gums so that debris is effectively removed and flows out of the mouth with the water.

Periodontal Tip
The periodontal tip features a special tapered soft silicone design at the tip, which makes the water flow more concentrated and facilitates the spraying of water and antibacterial solution deep into the periodontal pocket, while the structure also slows down the water pressure, making it friendly for people with sensitive gums and novices.
Best for: Daily Use by people with sensitive gums or periodontal pockets
Replacement frequency: 3 months
Suggested gear of pressure: Soft mode
How to use: First, adjust the gear to the lowest pressure, as soft mode. For novice or sensitive gum use, refer to the use of the standard nozzle. For uses that need to clean or medicate the inside of the gums to reduce inflammation, gently place the top silicone tip at a 45-degree angle under the gum line and then start the device to work.
