What is the best way to keep splints clean, mine have been getting this odor to them esp in the morning?

For daily cleaning, I like to brush mine with mouthwash (rinsing very well with water afterwards, because prolonged exposure to some mouthwashes can damage the splint.) To give it a good cleaning, I periodically soak it in denture cleaner. For a really good cleaning, the next time you go to the dentist, ask if someone can put it in their ultrasonic cleaner for you.

I have a sonic cleaner that shakes the splint in water with denture cleaner in it. Works great! My dentist that made the splint gave it to me.

I wear my splint 24/7 I just brush it with toothpaste and that works good for me.
