Keeping your dental appliances clean isn't just about looking good — it's about protecting your health. Whether you wear retainers, aligners, whitening trays or dentures, regular cleaning is essential to prevent harmful bacteria buildup. But traditional methods can be time-consuming, inconsistent, or even damaging to your appliances.
That’s where UV and ultrasonic cleaning step in.
🦷 What Is Ultrasonic Cleaning?
Ultrasonic cleaning uses high-frequency sound waves (measured in Hz) to create microscopic bubbles in water. These bubbles implode with enough force to dislodge stubborn particles — even from tiny crevices that manual brushing or tablets can’t reach.
-
Breaks down plaque and debris at a microscopic level
-
Reaches areas that manual cleaning can miss
-
Gentle on delicate materials like retainers and aligners
💡 What About UV-C Sterilisation?
UV-C light has been scientifically proven to destroy up to 99.9% of bacteria and viruses by breaking down their DNA. This kind of sterilisation is chemical-free and safe for daily use on dental appliances.
-
Kills harmful bacteria, viruses and pathogens
-
No chemicals, no residue
-
Helps prevent bad odours and infections
⚖️ How It Compares to Traditional Methods
| Method | Effectiveness | Time Needed | Risk of Damage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manual brushing | Low | Moderate | High (scratches plastic) |
| Soaking in tablets | Moderate | Long | Varies (harsh on some materials) |
| Boiling water | High | Long | Very High (warps appliances) |
| UV + Ultrasonic | Very High | Short | Low (non-abrasive, gentle) |
