Deep Clean your Night Guard Monthly
Make a habit of deep cleaning your night guard as least once a month. This can be done several ways.
The first is by using an over-the-counter nonabrasive denture cleaner. Simply place your night guard in a glass or bowl with water and allow the cleaner to dissolve completely into the water.
The second way to deep clean your night guard is by using a mixture of vinegar and hydrogen peroxide. Soak the night guard in distilled white vinegar for at least 30 minutes. After soaking, rinse the night guard and the bowl with water. Then soak the night guard in hydrogen peroxide for at least 30 more minutes. Once finished, rinse with water and allow the night guard to dry completely.
If your Nightguard is in need of a more extensive cleaning, we provide this service for a small fee.
Pro Tip: Don't ever leave your night guard soaking in anything for longer than one hour. Extended time in liquid can damage the material your night guard is made out of.
Also, don' t soak in any liquid containing alcohol - that includes Listerine.
