As long as we all want to believe we are above the Instagram algorithm, sometimes – sometimes – it serves an advertisement for a product that is just that is too good to resist.
Zima Dental must have passed a small fortune in advertising based on Instagram this year, because my feed is dominated by two very different healthcare ads: one for an overpriced hair pomade (I see your lies, your influencers) world.
It is needed as “revolutionary product that cleanses alignrs, holders, Invisalign and other oral appliances”, the dental POD is essentially a water-powered cup that has been intended to weaken your high-frequency nightlife-using ultrasonic waves. Just throw your device on the POD and a bubble of the bubbles will get to work in any bacteria and plaque hidden away in the various places that are difficult to attract. At least, this is the promise of marketing.
I am a long -term restraint carrier and I have broken at least two of my previous devices with their manual rubbing with a toothbrush (what can I say, I’m thorough!) But it’s the zima pod actually good?
In an effort to answer this question and at the same time add some commercial variety to my Instagram account, I arrived at Zima for a sample unit and the company forced my request by sending the Arctic White model to Techradar Towers (POD is also available on Sky Blue, Rose Pink and Jet Black). I got it home and immediately put it on the bench of my bathroom, next to my rubber and Braun Series 9 Pro Shaver (funny … for shaver).
As for what you get in the box, the Zima Dental Pod comes with a small package of cleaning tablets – the type you are already using to clean your detainees – as well as an AC adapter and a simple instruction manual. At 310g, the pod is a nice size and weight, and its cute design makes it suitable for a bedside table or kitchen counter if you do not have space in your bathroom.

The stainless steel stainless steel lining has a useful level to tell you how much water to put it on it, and once you finish it, just pour a cleaning tablet into the water and let it climb for two minutes.
Then throw your detainees on the pod and pop the lid. Make sure it is connected, then press the illuminated power button to start the cleaning process. The pod will make a buzzing noise – like an electric razor – for exactly five minutes, then automatically stops, so you don’t have to worry about taking over your device.
The results? From my experience, the Dental Pod has returned a cleaner set of restraints more often than not. Not to make my own horn, but I have always kept my devices clean enough, and even I was impressed with the ability of the POD to uproot deeply rooted dirt.
Of course, there will always be permanent discoloration that will not get rid of any bubbles, but as an alternative without risk to clean your toothbrush device, the Zima Dental Pod is a fairly smart piece of kit.
You only take six cleaning tablets in the box, but if you are a long-term retention carrier like me, you probably have orthodontic-publishers cleaning reserves that will work just as well as Zima’s branded product. To be honest, the pod works well without tablets – I have cleaned my device every day, but I only use one or two tablets a week.
The only real disadvantage in Zima Dental Pod is its price. Cost $ 99.99 in the US and £ 79.99 in the UKAnd the sale of Zima Christmas has hit only 10% of the price in both areas. But hey, you can’t put a price on a lovely smile.
