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.

No, the ultrasonic cleaning method is completely non-abrasive. It creates millions of microscopic bubbles which gently but thoroughly clean the entire surface of the appliance causing no damage. The Dental pod is designed to safely clean all kinds of materials ranging from metal to aligner plastic.

Yes, the Dental pod can effectively clean clear Aligners and Invisalign. All types of clear aligners have been thoroughly tested in the Dental pod with excellent and safe results.

Yes, the Dental pod is designed to effectively clean a pair of appliances at the same time. We do not recommend cleaning appliances from multiple patients at the same time as this can increase the risk of infection.

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.

Yes, the cleaning cycle will automatically stop after 5 minutes. One click is all that is needed for a short, thorough and worry-free deep clean of your oral appliance.

Always use cold tap water in your Dental pod. Using hot water when you start a cleaning cycle means there is a risk that the water temperature can rise above the recommended safe level for some oral appliance manufacturers. Please note that the Dental pod has an active heat regulation system to mitigate this risk.

Yes, you can run up to two consecutive cycles, ensuring that you have used cold water. If you’d like to run additional cycles, you must replace the water and wait at least 5 minutes to ensure the longevity of your appliance and your dental pod.

Yes, daily cleaning of your oral appliance with the Dental pod is recommended to ensure oral hygiene. Its ultrasonic method is safe for all appliance types and can be used regularly without causing any damage.

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.

This is not what the Dental pod was designed, engineered and tested to clean. However, many customers have let us know that they have had success cleaning jewelry. The underlying cleaning method of ultrasonic cavitation is something that has been used to clean jewellery by professionals for decades. We successfully tested cleaning precious metals in the Dental pod to ensure customers with grills could clean their appliances safely and effectively.

Clean the Dental pod's stainless steel tank daily with a quick rinse with water and weekly using a soap and a damp soft cloth before rinsing. It's designed for easy and swift cleaning

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.

Yes! And this has been proven scientifically. A study comparing the Dental pod to other cleaning methods (including brushing, rinsing, and soaking in a sterilising tablet solution) found that cleaning clear aligners with a Dental pod removed significantly more fungus than all other cleaning methods tested.

The Zima Go utilizes a dual-action system, combining both UVC and UVA light, ensuring an exceptionally thorough and effective sterilization process.
UVC light, with its shorter, more energetic wavelength, is renowned for its germicidal properties. It works by penetrating the cell walls of bacteria and viruses, destroying their genetic material and effectively neutralizing them.
Following the UVC sterilization, the device employs UVA light, which has a longer wavelength. This second stage of the process not only ensures any potential surviving microorganisms are effectively dealt with but also assists in removing stains and odors from the dental appliances. This helps maintain not just the hygiene but also the aesthetics of your oral appliances.
Through extensive testing and development, we've ensured that this dual-action system works optimally within a short duration, providing you with a thoroughly sanitized dental appliance quickly and conveniently. We've optimized the intensity and exposure time to each type of UV light, ensuring maximum efficacy without causing any damage to your appliances. It's a robust system that provides confidence in the cleanliness of your dental appliance every time you use it.

Zima Go's sliding lid is easy to use and very secure. With a gentle push, you can slide the lid open to put your dental appliance inside. Once you're done, just slide it back. A built-in magnet makes sure the lid snaps shut and stays that way, keeping the UV lights sealed inside for safe and effective cleaning. Plus, this smart design lets you open and close the lid with just one hand. It's simple, safe, and straightforward - that's Zima Go.

Absolutely! Zima Go's durable metal exterior and secure magnetic lid make it perfect for travel. The sturdy finish resists scratches and damage, while the compact design fits easily into any luggage. With Zima Go, you can ensure your dental appliances stay sanitized, no matter where your journey takes you.

Zima Go's increased size and unique crescent interior shape make it an ideal fit for a range of oral appliances, including aligners, retainers, mouthguard, biteguards, nightguards, partials and even toothbrush heads. It can hold appliances that are under 85mm wide, 64mm long, and 19mm tall. Its smart design comfortably accommodates different sizes, ensuring thorough and efficient sterilisation every time. With Zima Go, all your oral hygiene items are always clean and ready to use.

Yes, despite Zima Go's compact size (Φ90mm 28.5mm), the design is highly space-efficient. Its internal space (Φ84.5mm 20.2mm) can accommodate more than one item, allowing you to transport and sterilize multiple items simultaneously. The case is 19mm deep, which is typically enough space to stack two sets of clear retainers/aligners, or one large mouth guard. However, to ensure effective sterilisation, we advise not to overcrowd the case and to arrange items in a way that encourages the UV light to reach all surfaces.

The case of the Zima Go is constructed from a robust aluminum alloy (Al-Alloy). This material was chosen due to its exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion, ensuring the device can withstand daily use and travel without compromising its performance or aesthetics. Inside, the case is made from a combination of ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) and PC (Polycarbonate), both of which are resilient, long-lasting, and safe materials for use in sterilization devices. They also have a reflective quality which helps to spread the UV light.

Zima Go is powered by an efficient, built-in 300mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery. With an incredibly efficient power draw of just 0.2W, this battery allows you to use the sterilizer for months between charges. Charging is easy and convenient, made possible via the modern USB Type-C port. Simply connect the device to a power source using the provided USB-C cable. The device features an indicator light that lets you know when it's charging and when the battery is fully charged.

For a comprehensive 360-degree hygiene approach, we recommend using both the Dental Pod and the Zima Go.The Dental Pod provides a thorough ultrasonic clean, dislodging particles and removing stains from your oral appliances, as well as a full saturation sterilisation. But remember, bacteria can recolonize quickly once the appliance is exposed to the environment.That's where the Zima Go comes into play. It serves not only as a steriliser but also as a protective storage case when your appliance is not being cleaned or worn. By housing your dental appliances in the Zima Go, you're keeping them in a consistently sterilised environment. This reduces the potential for bacterial and viral contamination between cleanings and wears, providing continuous protection for your oral health.

No, the Zima Go should not be filled with water at any time, as this can cause it to break. The Zima Go has a different cleaning mechanism to the Dental pod: instead of using ultrasonic cavitation in water, it uses Ultra-Violet light to kill bacteria, and therefore does not require any water. This results in a less comprehensive clean than the Dental pod, but it importantly kills bacteria that cause oral hygiene issues such as bad breath and infections, whilst on the go. Small amounts of moisture that may be on your appliance when you place it in the Zima Go should not cause any damage to your device.
