The present invention discloses a system and method related to the field of dentistry, specifically dental appliances such as retainers, dentures, grills and athletic mouth-wear and is proposed to provide advanced assembly in providing assistance in cleaning the appliances through improved measures. Currently, there are cleaning methods for retainers and dentures, however they only include liquid solution methods without automatic moving bristles. As per the present art, users soak their retainers or dentures in the solution and then are required to use a toothbrush to scrub off excess liquid solution or built-up plaque that was not dissolved by the solution, making the process too repetitive and time consuming. Additionally, the toothbrush does not provide automatic circular motion, which is preferred in order to produce retainers or dentures that are plaque-free and completely transparent. Finally, appliances can be damaged and break when using a handheld technique with a toothbrush due to lack of support and stability for the appliance. This cleaning device takes into consideration these deficiencies and corrects them to make the process more effective and convenient for all users in any environment.
