Meet the range of specialised Zima accessories designed to pair with the Dental Pod for a deeper, more complete clean.     

We’re thrilled to announce that the Dental Pod, our premium ultrasonic cleaner specially designed for retainers, aligners, dentures and mouth guards, is now available in Boots stores across the UK.

The Dental Pod has been awarded Product of the Year at the 2025 British Dental Industry Awards, for the second consecutive year. 

If you wear a retainer or any other oral appliance, you’ve likely used a basic plastic storage case. However, these cases can compromise both the condition of your appliance and your overall oral hygiene. This is why we set ourselves the challenge of engineering a safe way to store your retainers, protecting them from breakage and loss.

Retainers can quickly develop cloudy buildup, stains, and bad odour. In this article, we explain the most effective way to clean retainers at home with the dentist-approved Dental Pod -  keeping them fresh, clear, and hygienic.

Dental hygienist Catherine Staffeldt (@honesthygienist) shares her go-to method for keeping retainers clean, fresh, and bacteria-free. She explains why traditional cleaning methods like brushing and tablets fall short, and why she recommends the Dental Pod Pro to all her patients. 

Did you know that poorly cleaned retainers can lead to unpleasant odours, discomfort, and buildup over time? The Dental Pod helps maintain a clean appliance as part of your daily routine.

Did you know a harmful fungus that causes oral thrush could be thriving on your retainer? Candida Albicans is linked to oral health issues, including oral thrush.
