Zima Dental introduces the key features of the Dental Pod Pro, an advanced and easy-to-use oral appliance cleaner.
Since 2019, Zima Dental has been at the forefront of innovation in oral appliance care and now launches the Dental Pod Pro, an advanced and user-friendly ultrasonic appliance cleaner. After pioneering the award-winning Dental Pod as the world’s first personal ultrasonic cleaning machine for retainers, aligners and guards, this upgraded model represents the next generation of oral appliance care.
The evolution of oral appliance care
Zima Dental is on a mission to provide innovative solutions to the problems faced by users of oral appliances. Although widely recommended, dentists report that patients found brushing with their appliance time-consuming, laborious and ineffective, and the cleaning tablets left an unpleasant taste and contained dangerous chemicals patients felt were unsafe to use.
Coupled with research suggesting that wearers of oral appliances have a higher risk of developing tooth decay and gum disease and that aligner patients are more prone to oral health problems such as white spot lesions than previously realized, patients needed a answer that takes care of both their appliance and their oral health.
Utilizing market-leading ultrasonic cleaning technology, Zima Dental products provide oral appliance users with solutions to their problems. The launch of the original Dental Pod in 2019 changed the way patients cared for their dental appliances. The product quickly gained recognition for its ability to provide deep ultrasonic cleaning that was gentle on appliances while effectively eliminating harmful bacteria and plaque.
Now, with the launch of the Dental Pod Pro, Zima Dental has raised the bar again, offering an appliance cleaner that is poised to revolutionize oral appliance care for millions of users around the world.
Backed by two years of research, development and feedback from customers and dental professionals, the Dental Pod Pro redefines the industry standard for performance, usability and safety. This innovative device has been improved in four key ways: advanced technology, patient-centered design, antimicrobial materials and improved safety features.
A closer look at the advanced features of the Dental Pod Pro
Following the launch of the original Dental Pod, the feedback, advice and collaboration received from dental professionals helped inspire the development of several new distinctive features:
- Dental Pod Pro’s patent-pending ultrasonic technology delivers unmatched cleaning power. Based on the success of the Dental Pod, Zima Dental has introduced an additional cleaning function for the Pro. “Max Clean mode” is a dual-action cleaning system that alternates between high-intensity 45,000 Hz ultrasonic bursts and constant vibrations. This advanced function is highly effective at breaking down tough stains, plaque and bacterial biofilms that form during periods of long-term build-up
- Dental Pod Pro also introduces several user-friendly upgrades designed to make oral appliance care more efficient and convenient. A key improvement is the hinged tank and base, which simplifies the maintenance process. With the tank and power base now separate components, users can fill and clean the tank without having to disconnect it from the power source
- The increased reservoir capacity is particularly beneficial for patients with larger appliances such as dentures, or for those who need to clean multiple appliances at once. This makes the technology accessible to more patients, with a wider range of device types
- Dental Pod Pro materials and surfaces have been enhanced with antimicrobial and bacterial resistant properties. Its tank is made of antibacterial stainless steel, reinforced with elements such as chromium, manganese and nickel, which actively reduce the growth of bacteria on the surface. The cap rubber has been cross stitched to improve resistance to bacterial growth during use.
Continuous commitment to innovation and quality
The Dental Pod Pro is a collaboration between engineers, dentists, patients and is a testament to Zima Dental’s commitment to innovation and quality. From its functional yet modern design to its advanced cleaning technology, this device embodies the company’s dedication to providing oral appliance users with the best care solutions possible.
With Dental Pod already the recommended cleaning method by 1000s of dentists, the launch of Dental Pod Pro provides patients with an upgraded option and an even easier, safer and more effective way to care for their appliances. It will be available for purchase on October 13 at www.zimadental.co.uk.
