    Soak it in a mild bleach solution. Make sure you rinse it before you use it.

    Okay I will try that, with bleach & some water, or just bleach to try that with?
    Or any other liquid stuff to use with bleach too?
    Then I will make sure to rinse it off thoroughly before I will put it in my mouth(rinse it off with water for a while?)

    Bleach and water. Rinse with water. Never mix bleach with any other chemical.

    Why not?  How else am I supposed to make chloroform?

    Maybe mix just half water & half bleach-whatever the amount of water & bleach I will mix with it?

    Pretty sure a half bleach and half water would be way to strong and probably not healthy. Anyway I was thinking that maybe a Polident Denture Cleanser tablet would clean up that dark spot. Cheers!

    I had tried Effordent, is it almost like Polident of what substance in it?
    And that wouldn't get (any) dark stuff off of my night guard-probably don't know what any of other solution to make & try to see what other solution would work tor that-is it?

    Well I tried the other stuff (& steps) & at a dentist place, then none of that can seem to get any of that off, then I went & post it here-

    Actually it got all rinsed off, it's just dark stain on it.

    Yeah, I guess I may get a new one after the next dentist-even that the (plastic) night guard is really quite expensive!

    Vinegar and bicarb. If that doesn't work, invest in a new one.
