The dentsivka (Ukrainian: Денцівка) is a woodwind musical instrument with a fipple (mouthpiece). In traditional instruments, the tuning varies with the length of the tube. It is made in a variety of different sizes: the piccolo (tuned in F), prima (in C), alto (in G), tenor (in F), and bass (in C).

Two varieties of the instrument are the dvodentsivka and the pivtoradentsivka.
