Hi,
I have removed a jet from my shower system to clean out some debris. Now I have a hard time putting it back on. The reason is that the jet has "female threads" while the male threads on the pipe are so deeply recessed into the tile that it is impossible to wrap teflon tape around it. How would one solve a problem like that? Is there a "brush- on" teflon tape alternative?
Many thanks in advance!

Sure...pipe "dope" compound. What was used long before there was such a thing as teflon.

Teflon tape _is_ the alternative. The original, and many still think best, is the brushable pipe dope.

"Pipe dope" and there's also "Rectorseal T plus 2"
