Only using a cleaning tablet is like cleaning 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.

Toothbrushes cause abrasive damage to dental appliances resulting in scratches, discomfort and a cloudy look. Additionally, a toothbrush will not clean into every crevice leaving bacteria, plaque and grime on your oral appliance.

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

No, other sterilizing tablets have been found to damage and sometimes break the Dental pod. In addition our tablets have been specifically designed to not interfere with the ultrasonic cavitation cleaning effect. Our tablets have been specifically engineered for use in the Dental pod, using premium, cohesive and non-corrosive ingredients.

The recommended cleaning schedule will vary with each oral appliance. We encourage you to check the instructions provided by your dentist or orthodontist. The Dental pod is able to accommodate any recommended cleaning schedule.

Not at all, when operating the Dental pods's electricity usage is equivalent to a table light and it only needs 5 minutes to operate per day.

The Dental pod tank is made from Stainless Steel so it is very easy to clean. This can be achieved daily with a quick rinse. Sometimes a light brush or wipe may be required.

In certain situations, UV light can effectively sterilize objects. However, we decided not to include UV in the Dental pod for three reasons. Firstly, chemical sterilization with our tablets is significantly more effective than UV sterilization for oral appliances. Secondly, UV requires specific design considerations to be effective, which would weaken the more important ultrasonic effect. Finally, our sterilizing tablet formulation offers additional advantages against UV such as being able to sterilize both sides of your appliance, removing odor and leaving your appliance with a fresh taste and smell. If you are interested in reading more about this topic, please click this link to read our blog article.

The Dental pod can act as a great storage solution for your appliance, but we recommend pouring away the solution before doing this to keep your appliance hygienic.

Yes, you can share your Dental pod. However, please note that this can increase the risk of infection. To reduce this risk, change the water and clean the Dental pod between uses. We also strongly recommend using our sterilizing tablets to prevent the transfer of bacteria and other pathogens between users.
