We found a product that’ll make your dentist proud — at least, that’s what dozens of reviewers claim about this ultrasonic cleaner. The compact device uses vibrations, water and four UV lights to kill the gunk and bacteria from your retainer, mouth guard, toothbrush heads and dentures. “My orthodontist recommended this and she was so right,” says one reviewer. “The first time I used it, I saw how clean and crystal clear my retainer was. No spots.” Just place those small objects inside its tank (or stick your toothbrush heads in the designated slots), fill with water and tap a button — it’s as easy as that.
Debuting on Amazon at $59.99, this little cleaner has since dropped to $49.99 (17% off), and the extra on-page coupon drops its price down to just $42.99 — totaling a 28% discount! That’s way cheaper than spending money on a replacement retainer or visiting your local jeweler.
The ultrasonic cleaner is extremely easy to use and only requires water and an object small enough to fit inside of its tank. You simply load it in and tap a button to turn on one of its four cleaning modes to shake up your precious items for up to 10 minutes. It has four UV lights that kill off bacteria, plus it has two slots in its lid so you can stick a toothbrush head or makeup brush in it. (You can read more about how UV light destroys yucky stuff on the United States Environmental Protection Agency website but here’s the short story: It works and in some cases, is proven to be more effective than liquid cleaning agents.)
It’s also ultra-quiet and several users can attest to that. “This unit is fairly quiet and sits compactly on the counter,” says one. “I use it to clean my retainer every morning. Definitely worth the investment and so easy and more effective than manual brushing.”
