Just using a cleaning tablet is like brushing your teeth with toothpaste but no toothbrush. Tablets will kill some of the bacteria on your appliance but the chemicals won’t penetrate any deeper than the very surface level. Deep bacteria and plaque will remain causing harm to your physical and dental health as well as keeping your appliance cloudy and dirty.

Cleaning your appliance with a toothbrush is very detrimental. While this method will remove some bacteria and plaque it comes at the cost of damaging your appliance. Toothbrushes cause abrasive damage to dental appliances resulting in scratches, discomfort and a cloudy look. Further to this a toothbrush will not clean into every crevice leaving some pathogens on your dental appliance.

Not at all, the ultrasonic cleaning method is completely non-abrasive. It creates millions of micro bubbles which softly but throughly clean the entire surface of the appliance causing no damage at all. The Dental pod is designed to safely clean all kinds of materials from metal to aligner plastic.
