Best Way To Clean Mouth Guard
 
On a daily basis, the best way to clean your mouth guard is to rinse it in cool water and use a soft bristle toothbrush to gently brush away any debris. There’s no need to use toothpaste for this process, since the harsh abrasives can actually damage your mouth guard. After rinsing and gently brushing, make sure to allow your night guard to dry completely before storing it. Making sure it is dry will effectively keep bacteria growth at bay and keep your mouth guard bacteria free.
