    Just wondering what's the best way to clean it. I've been using my tootbrush so far and it seems alright.

    I would reccomend two products that are more convenient than a toothbrush. Depends on which type of system you want.

    SonicBrite is a retainer cleaner in a powder form. You add it to a special sonic cleaning bath (small battery powered) and it takes away all the smells and slime.

    Retainer Brite is a tablet that you drop into a cup of water and it also takes away all of the smells and slime. The Retainer Brite cleaning tablets also come with a small sonic cleaner, but you can use the tablets without that because they fizz up.

    I guess if all else fails you could still just use your toothbrush.

    You can get these products around on the web, but I found www.dentakit.com to be the most convenient place because they are both there and you can get free shipping if you buy both.

    Can I just ask if anyone has ever used those denture tablets that dissolve in water to clean their retainer?? Usually I just use toothbrush, but wonder if the tablets would be better?? Thanks!
