What are the ingredients in Zima Dental's tablets? (2026)

The Truth About Tablets 

Cleaning tablets help remove stains and plaque buildup, supporting the cleaning process as part of a regular oral appliance care routine, while leaving your appliance feeling fresh after use.

Despite their widespread use, some oral appliance cleaning tablets contain stronger chemical agents that may not be suitable for all materials or user preferences. Ingredients such as potassium persulfate are commonly found in some formulations.

Used as oxidising agents in a number of cosmetic and industrial applications, persulfates have been associated in some reports with irritation or sensitivity in certain individuals. Denture tablets containing persulfates were the subject of an FDA public health alert in 2008. When these compounds react in water, they undergo chemical reactions that may not be suitable for all users.

In contrast, Zima’s Ultrasonic Boosting Tablets are formulated with carefully selected ingredients, designed to support a consistent and reliable cleaning routine. The persulfate-free formulation is intended for regular use as part of oral appliance care. They are designed to be used alongside the Dental Pod to support the ultrasonic cleaning process.

The result is an oral appliance that feels clean and refreshed after each use, as part of a consistent care routine.
