Cleaning snore device (possibly similar to dentures)

Options
Should I use nitradine or steradent or baby sterilising tablets to clean this snore device (s4sdental) I havent used for two years (its' been in its case)  but want to give another go.   What volume of water per tablet?   Pharmacist didnt really know

    It depends on which s4s device you have as some have soft elastic parts or metal parts which can be damaged by denture cleaner. 
    S4s themselves recommend https://www.s4sdental.com/puradent.
    I would sk the dentist who fitted it and also ask them to check it over before you start wearing it again as it may not fit properly and if it's one of the adjustable snore guards may need adjusting back again before you start using it,

    I called and they said fairy liquid and scrub with tootbrush.   Ive had this device seven years or more and not really had a good go with it- thought Id swallow it or didnt have confidence with using it correctly.  Im going to a dentist (not s4s one) but snore guy for him to look at it

    Ok, I saw a dentist who recommended building up the bottom part of the device (think he said it would support the device or my mouth or something -£350   he wasn't a S4S dentist (from website) but snore specialist.  He did say it fitted fine and I should use at the minimum setting.  I called S4S and they didn't know exactly what he meant.   Considering dentists rip people off. S4S recommended downloading a snore app on phone and recording my sleep without device then doing one week with device without adjusting it for a week then one complete turn of key and one more week.  Using snore app and compare.   I'll do this first.   I do suffer from blocked nose so don't know how effective this be but give it a go.   The dentist I saw also recommended to stop using a steroid nose spray as it effects your gland which filters out bad chemicals from food and recommended his therapist who prescribes-  X clear.   I googled it and it's available on Amazon so dunno what he's on about.
