The acrylic plate and steel wire handle lukewarm ultrasonic cleaning.
How to do it
- Time
- 6 min
- Water
- Lukewarm, 35 °C at most – never hot
Rinse, run 6 minutes and brush lightly afterwards.
With these answers we do not recommend the ultrasonic cleaner, so there is no how-to.
Pick your cleaner to see if it fits, which setting to use and what its manual says.
Why
Hawley retainers are made of hard acrylic and stainless steel wire, and manuals list braces and retainers as suitable. Hot water can deform the acrylic.
Watch out for
- Never hot water
- Do not run them together with jewelry
