A tooth cleaning apparatus for an incapacitated patient which utilizes pressurized liquid to dislodge debris from a tooth area and a suction pump to remove the debris and spent liquid from the incapacitated patient. A handle portion has a first channel which delivers the pressurized liquid and a second channel for the suction function. These channels communicate with a head portion which is configured to be placed over a tooth of the incapacitated patient to simultaneously both rinse and suction the debris and liquid. In this manner, excess water and debris is prevented from collecting in the mouth of the incapacitated patient.
