Mouth Guard Care And Cleaning Instructions - Brux Night Guard

  • Rinse the mouth guard in water after each use.

  • Use a cleaner to remove bacteria or plaque that can cause tooth decay or bad breath.

    Hydrogen Peroxide is easy to find in pharmacies and most grocery stores and it's inexpensive. It can also be used for a variety of household uses, making it a great choice. The simplest way to clean is to place the mouth guard in a cup or glass and fill with enough hydrogen peroxide to completely cover it. Let the mouth guard soak for at least a few minutes, then remove and rinse with water.Denture Cleaning Tablets, such as Polident or Efferdent, also work well at removing bacteria and give the mouth guard a clean, fresh taste. Most of these types of effervescent soaks only take a few minutes but can also be used all day.If you're in a pinch or out of hydrogen peroxide or dental tablets, a good anti-bacterial mouthwash can also be used for soaking your mouth guard. Allow it to soak for a few minutes in a glass just like the other methods.If you're really stuck and out of all of these options, a mild dish cleaning liquid and water can be used, although it might not taste as good and should be rinsed well.

  • After cleaning in a cup of peroxide or dental cleaner, rinse the mouth guard thoroughly in water to remove any cleaning residue.

  • Shake or pat dry with a clean cloth or towel.

  • Place the mouth guard back in the hard case and store in a medicine cabinet or near your bed. The Brux Night Guard comes in a ventilated case with holes in the top and bottom to ensure it air dries when not in use. It also protects the mouth guard from pets who might chew it up. Don't laugh, it happens.
