Take the head off. Rinse the tank after jewelry beforehand. Air-dry.

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

Manuals list toothbrushes as suitable. Ultrasound loosens toothpaste residue at the base of the bristles, but it does not sterilise.

Watch out for

  • Never the toothbrush itself with the motor
  • Do not run them together with jewelry
