Any dental appliance that is not cleaned properly can become a breeding ground for bacteria, plaque and other pathogens posing a serious risk to those wearing it, as well as looking cloudy and dull.

  • Designed to eliminate bacteria, viruses and pathogens
  • Keep your appliance looking clean and clear
  • Remove harmful plaque build up
  • Save time and effort

The Dental Pod uses high-frequency 42,000 Hz ultrasonic waves to vibrate the solution and produce millions of nano-scale bubbles. These bubbles rapidly collapse, releasing a large amount of energy, breaking down bacteria and plaque while being non abrasive to your dental appliance.


Ultrasonic cleaning technology is safe and reliable and has been widely used in laboratory, commercial, industrial and other fields for decades.

The Dental Pod has been specifically designed by our UK scientists to clean a wide range of oral appliances including all types of clear aligners, retainers (including those with metal), mouth guards, dentures, bite guards (night guards), sleep devices, toothbrush heads and more.

Read our blog here to learn more about what the Dental Pod can clean. If you are still unsure, contact support to check if your specific appliance can be cleaned.

UV light isn’t effective when the appliance is sitting in dirty or cloudy water. The light can’t reach all surfaces because even very small amounts of debris in the water blocks it. Instead, the Dental Pod uses best-in-class ultrasonic cleaning technology, which physically removes buildup and works reliably across the whole surface, even in hard to reach areas.

Got questions? We've got answers

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 throughly 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.

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. The Dental Pod will also be great for cleaning your retainer after aligner treatment.

Yes, the Dental Pod can effectively clean oral retainers. The Dental Pod was specifically designed and tested to clean both modern clear retainers and more traditional retainers with metal.

Yes, the Dental Pod can effectively clean both night guards and bite guards. The Dental Pod has been specifically engineered and tested to clean more than 14 types of guards.

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.

Clean your Dental Pod's stainless steel tank with a Zima Protective Cleaning Wipe. Use one wipe to remove debris and loose plaque build up after a cleaning cycle finishes. Make sure to spread the wipe's antimicrobial protective film across the whole surface area to protect against airborne bacteria between cycles.

Definitely, the Dental Pod is designed to effectively clean two appliances at the same time.

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 jewellery. 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.

This Dental Pod makes cleaning my vivera retainer trays so easy. I used to scrub them with a toothbrush, but they never looked completely clean. Big difference with the dental pod and adding the cleaning tablet. They feel so clean and fresh after.

Customer photo review of Ultrasonic Boosting Tablets

It is a great product but the advertising is misleading. The video show the unit as it is working with charged batteries as you don’t see the electrical cord. It doesn’t mention that you should use tablets . We purchased it because we are travelling and obviously having to plus it in is note the best approach. We are leaving for Europe and we did ask it was safe to use it with an adaptor but we were told that they didn’t know!! Let’s hope it will not blow up .

I’ve had the Dental Pod for about a year and found it really convenient for cleaning my retainers. It’s compact, easy to use, and definitely made cleaning them feel much easier than doing it manually. Overall, I’ve been super happy with it!

The hygienest at my dental practice mentioned about the pod to me and after years of having cleaned my Invisalign aligners and then retainers with a toothbrush and toothpaste I am so pleased I now have a pod. It makes cleaning my aligners a joy as I simply drop them in and they come out looking so very clean. The pod itself is so funky and sits on my bedside locker. Very easy to clean out after too. I have since recommended to family and friends.

It’s super easy in the morning while I drink my coffee I pop my Invisalign in my Zima with a cleaning tab and it’s super fresh for the day I’ll do it before bed too! Super easy to use and it does make a difference my first Invisalign I didn’t use the Zima and it had a yellowish tint and my second one did not and I did use the Zima

So easy to use, and I love the extra layer of protection! I also use the pod, but this UV case is perfect for traveling and makes cleaning my retainers so much easier. After 1.5 years of use, even my dentist was surprised by how clean they are. I absolutely love it!

This is my second ultrasonic cleaner for my retainers. The first was an inexpensive model. It lasted about a year and was a little bulkier and made more noise. I love the Zina I bought. Takes up less space and I like that lid comes off for drying purposes. Worth the money.

Je l’adore. J’ai une plaque occlusale depuis des années qui s’était vraiment encrassée avec le temps à seulement utiliser une pastille pour la nettoyer, mais maintenant que j’utilise également le dental pod pro, elle est redevenue propre et comme neuve!

My orthodontist recommended this to get the weird white residue and horrifying smell off my retainers. I brush them every day, so I was surprised at the state of them. I used the pod and the tablets (and left them in the cleaning solution for an entire day on accident) and they are SO CLEAN NOW! And they don’t smell like anything!

Customer photo review of Dental Pod Pro

So far so great! I've had it for just over 2 weeks and it has significantly improved the clarity of my retainer. Very grateful for a device (zima) that helps prevent the erosion of the enamel due to bacteria, from a device (retainer) meant to protect from the erosion of enamel from grinding. I feel as though this device should be sold with a night guard/retainer/etc., or it renders them counterintuitive if they're not being cleaned. Thank you for this product!

Customer photo review of Dental Pod

I recently heard about the Dental Pod after complaining to a friend that no matter WHAT I did, my retainer always seemed to have an odor and never looked truly crystal clear. I was desperate for a solution, so the second she told me about the Dental Pod, I looked it up and ordered one! When it arrived, the setup was ridiculously easy, and of course I immediately threw my retainer in to see if it actually lived up to the hype. Spoiler: IT DID. 😍 That was only a few weeks ago, and I have genuinely fallen IN LOVE with this thing. My retainer comes out looking so clean and clear, and most importantly—the smell that I could never seem to get rid of is GONE. I seriously wish I had bought one sooner! And can we talk about the cleaning tablets?! ZimaDental included a few with my Dental Pod, and I was so impressed because they leave absolutely no chemical smell or taste behind like so many other cleaning tablets I’ve tried. When I started running low, I searched Amazon for the exact tablets and couldn’t find them. I liked them so much that I literally did a quick ChatGPT search, found ZimaDental’s website, and ordered a 6-month supply because apparently I refuse to ever run out now. 😂 I can confidently say this is one of those purchases where I thought, “Where has this been my entire life?!” If you wear a retainer, aligners, or anything similar, I 1000% recommend it. The Dental Pod has officially become part of my routine, and I’m so thankful for the friend who put me onto ZimaDental! 🤩🦷✨ Consider me officially converted. I LOVE my Dental Pod!

Zima dental pod pro was recommended to me by my dentist to keep my overnight mandibular splint clean. It's fantastic. Cleans my splint, I mostly use the long clean setting, while I get ready in the morning. I also use it with the cleaning tablets once every 2 or 3 days to ensure it's pristine and clean the pod with the pod wipes. I couldn't be happier.

This dental pod has changed my retainer’s cleanliness. For years I’ve had my retainer degrade, weaken, and crack on me. After using this machine, it has freshened my retainer and no longer wake up to bad breath to enjoy my aligned teeth in full form. Easy to use, love to use the max time setting to clean those stubborn grits on my retainer. Glad to have purchased this.

Love, love Zina Dental Pod! My retainers are lare shiny and clean. Was amazed at all of the gunk that came off them as they are relatively new, but they smelled bad and were already collecting plaque. Easy as can be to use. Expensive but worth it to me. Retainers feel very fresh in my mouth!

After using this for a month, i’m beyond pleased! before the zima pod, i was using a cleaning tablet in a cup of water. not nearly as effective. even with just water, this ultrasonic cleaner gets my invisalign trays really really clean. it’s satisfying seeing what it picked up off of my trays when i open the lid after the cycle is over! i recommend this to everyone now. seriously worth the money.
