How effective is the UV light we use?Updated 3 months ago

The Zima Go utilises a dual-action system, combining both UVC and UVA light, ensuring an exceptionally thorough and effective sterilisation process.

UVC light, with its shorter, more energetic wavelength, is renowned for its germicidal properties. It works by penetrating the cell walls of bacteria and viruses, destroying their genetic material and effectively neutralising them.

Following the UVC sterilisation, the device employs UVA light, which has a longer wavelength. This second stage of the process not only ensures any potential surviving microorganisms are effectively dealt with but also assists in removing stains and odors from the dental appliances. This helps maintain not just the hygiene but also the aesthetics of your oral appliances.

Through extensive testing and development, we've ensured that this dual-action system works optimally within a short duration, providing you with a thoroughly sanitised dental appliance quickly and conveniently. We've optimised the intensity and exposure time to each type of UV light, ensuring maximum efficacy without causing any damage to your appliances. It's a robust system that provides confidence in the cleanliness of your dental appliance every time you use it.
