A jet water teeth cleaning apparatus comprises a shower head for releasably attaching the apparatus to the inlet pipe of a shower. A valve coupled to the shower head selectably diverts water through a flexible tube to a handheld unit. The hand unit includes a housing with a nozzle and a pistol-grip style handle. The handle includes a trigger for regulating the velocity of water allowed to flow through the housing and for actuating a battery powered vibration unit. The vibration unit includes a reciprocating piston which maintains optimal water pressure by stirring the water flow to reduce friction between the water and the channel. The housing further includes a refillable reservoir of dentifrice which communicates a quantity of dentifrice into the water stream channel according to a siphoning or Venturi effect. The water stream with dentifrice is expelled through the nozzle for cleaning or flossing a user's teeth while showering.
