2024 Dental Industry Product of the Year
We are thrilled to announce that the Dental Pod has been named Product of the Year at the 2024 Dentistry Industry Awards, in collaboration with the British Dental Industry Association!
This prestigious recognition celebrates the groundbreaking innovation and engineering excellence that brought the Dental Pod to life.
Our journey began with a simple realisation: finding a safe and effective way to clean oral appliances was a challenge for many.
Motivated to make a difference, we designed the Dental Pod—the world’s first ultrasonic cleaner tailored specifically for oral appliances, crafted with precision and cutting-edge technology.
Today, the Dental Pod has revolutionised oral care globally, empowering people to feel confident in their smiles and comfortable wearing their aligners, retainers, and guards.
We owe this achievement to the trust and support of dental professionals, our customers, and our incredible community.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
Don’t take our word for it. Dentists trust us.
Having something that you can use every night to clean retainers has been life changing. We love Zima Dental!

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 expand and collapse, releasing a large amount of energy, continuously scouring and smashing the grime, bacteria and plaque while being non abrasive to your dental appliance. This action, called ‘cavitation’ occurs on average 4000 times per second, so all surfaces and gaps are continuously cleaned leading to a short but thorough cleaning cycle.
The precise frequency required to produce the optimal level of cavitation depends on the amount of water in the device and the size/material of the oral appliance. Fortunately the Dental pod has a built in dynamic feedback feature that will analyse the contents and adjust to the optimal frequency for ultrasonic cavitation cleaning.
Ultrasonic cleaning technology is safe and reliable and has been widely used in laboratory, commercial, industrial and other fields for decades.

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 thoroughly 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.

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.

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.
