Liquid processing nozzle for purifying liquid piping of dental device

Abstract

A formation of a biofilm is suppressed in piping having a relatively small liquid flow rate. A liquid processing nozzle connected to a liquid piping between a handpiece and a water supply source piping includes a nozzle body in which a liquid inlet, a liquid outlet, and a liquid flow path communicating the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet are formed, and a plurality of protrusions protruding from an inner surface of the liquid flow path into the liquid flow path. The protrusions are arranged so that protrusion amounts from the inner surface of the liquid flow path into the liquid flow path gradually increase as they go from an upstream side to a downstream side of the liquid flow path in a liquid flow direction from the liquid inlet to the liquid outlet.
