How does it work?
The Alivio Ultrasonic Dental Cleaning Pod uses 43,000 Hz ultrasonic vibrations to remove plaque and buildup from your appliance. It also features built-in UV light that eliminates 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens — all in just 3 minutes, without any scrubbing or harsh chemicals.
Is it safe to use every day?
Yes! Our device is designed for daily use and is completely safe for your dental appliances. It’s a gentle yet highly effective way to maintain oral hygiene.
Do I need to use cleaning tablets?
You can use the Alivio Ultrasonic Dental Cleaning Pod with just water, but for optimal results, especially with tougher stains or odours, we recommend using it with Dental Cleaning Tablets. These are included in our Bundle Plus package. Cleaning tablets are not required to clean and sterilize - the device will do this with just water.
Is the Sonic Pro more effective than a toothbrush?
Brushing can miss the mark — and even cause damage.Toothbrushes leave behind buildup and can scratch your trays, making them cloudy, irritating, and unhygienic.
