Frequently asked questions - Sonic One

The Sonic One is suitable for cleaning clear aligners, dental trays, bite splints, dentures, mouthguards, braces (both metal and plastic), and toothbrush heads.

A cleaning tablet alone is like brushing your teeth with toothpaste without a toothbrush. It does remove some bacteria, but it does not penetrate deeply enough to eliminate all residue. For a thorough cleaning, additional methods are necessary to remove even deep-seated bacteria and plaque that could otherwise impair your dental health and keep your aligners cloudy and dirty.

The reason for this is simple. Toothbrushes cause abrasive damage to dental appliances such as aligners or mouthguards. More specifically, with frequent use, this leads to scratches, a cloudy appearance, and discomfort when wearing them. Furthermore, they do not reach into all crevices and leave bacteria, plaque, and dirt on your dental prosthesis.

Cleaning with the Sonic One takes just 5 minutes and stops automatically.

Quite the contrary. Ultrasonic cleaning is completely gentle and causes no abrasion. Why?
It generates millions of tiny bubbles that gently yet thoroughly clean the entire surface of the dental splint without damaging it. Furthermore, our ultrasonic cleaner is designed to safely clean materials like metal and aligner plastic.

Our ultrasonic cleaning technology uses high-frequency sound waves at 45,000 Hz to generate millions of tiny bubbles in the cleaning solution. These bubbles are created by rapid vibrations, expand, and collapse, gently removing dirt, bacteria, and plaque from your dental products. This process, known as "cavitation," ensures that all surfaces and hard-to-reach places are thoroughly cleaned. For an even deeper explanation, please feel free to read our blog post.

The UV light in the Sonic One provides an additional level of disinfection that goes beyond ultrasonic cleaning. It helps reduce bacteria and germs on the surface of the dental splints, providing extra sterilization. While the ultrasonic cleaner removes dirt and impurities, the UV light helps create a more hygienic environment by killing potential germs that may still be present. Combined with our sterilizing tablets, this technology ensures comprehensive cleaning and disinfection of your dental splints.

The tank of the Sonic One is made of highly polished stainless steel and is therefore easy to clean. As a rule, simply rinsing it out is sufficient. If necessary, a light brush or paintbrush can be used to remove stubborn residue.

The sterilising tablets ensure your aligners are not just clean, but also hygienically pure. Combined with the ultrasonic cleaner, they remove stubborn deposits, bacteria, and odors by 99.9% — residues that are hard to eliminate through cleaning alone. This keeps your aligner or dental retainer fresh and comfortable to wear at all times.

Other cleaning tablets can damage the Sonic One over time and wear down the stainless steel basin. Our specially developed sterilising tablets, however, are precisely tailored to the needs of the cleaner. They contain high-quality, non-corrosive ingredients that ensure your Sonic One stays in perfect condition long-term.
