Frequently Asked Questions
Is Lume safe for Invisalign and clear aligners?
Yes. Lume’s 45kHz ultrasonic frequency is gentle on aligner plastic, it cleans through millions of micro-bubbles, not abrasion.
There’s no scrubbing, no scratching, and no heat damage. It’s safe for clear aligners, retainers (including those with metal wires), nightguards, sports mouthguards, dentures, and bridges.
How is Lume different from other ultrasonic cleaners?
Three things.
First, Lume has 5-point UVC sterilization built in — many popular cleaners have no UV at all, or sell it as a separate accessory.
Second, Lume’s 230ml tank is removable, so refilling and rinsing takes seconds (and it’s larger than the 150–200ml fixed tanks on most devices).
Third, Lume offers 2 cycle modes: 3-minute express, 5-minute deep clean, instead of a single fixed setting.
Can I use Lume with Renewa Day-to-Day Cleanser?
That’s exactly how it’s designed to work. Add a dose of Renewa Day-to-Day Cleanser to the tank before running your cycle, the ultrasonic waves drive the enzyme formula into micro-gaps for a deeper clean than water alone.
We call it the Renewa 3-Step Ritual:
Fill + Add Renewa → Run Your Lume Cycle → Rinse + Wear.
Daily, ideally. A 3-minute express cycle each morning or evening keeps biofilm from building up. Use the full 5 minute ultrasonic + UV cycle once a week, or whenever your appliance needs a reset — after illness, travel, or a tough game.
How often should I use Lume?
Does Lume work on jewelry?
Yes, just add water — rings, earrings, chains, and other fine jewelry come out noticeably brighter after an ultrasonic cycle.
One device, your whole hygiene routine.
What’s in the box?
The Lume device, a cleaning basket, a power cable, and an instruction guide. Lume runs on plug-in power and is water resistant.
