The Best (and Easiest) Way to Clean Your Mouth Guard

Keeping your night guard clean may not be on the top of your priority list, but what if I told you that it would take less than a minute a day? Not only is cleaning your mouth guard quick and easy, but it will also go a long way toward keeping it bacteria free, stain free, and longer lasting so that you don’t need to buy replacements as often.

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.

For the deepest clean, the best way to clean your night guard on a weekly basis is to use a cleaning tablet meant to be used with night guards, mouth guards, retainers, and other mouth wearable products. Simply drop a tablet in a cup of water, add in your night guard, then let the fizzy bubbles work their magic as it soaks. Your night guard will be left squeaky clean and minty fresh. Chomper Labs’ custom formulated cleaning tablets are 99% anti-microbial, remove stains, and prevent discoloration of your night guard to keep it longer-lasting, and fresh for wear every night.

When it comes to caring for your night guard, just a few minutes is all you need. Keeping your mouth guard clean will keep it bacteria free and lasting longer so you don’t have to worry about replacing it as frequently. The best part is, it couldn’t be easier! With just cool water, a toothbrush, and some cleaning tablets, you have all you need to keep your night guard ready to protect your teeth night after night.
