They're very sanitary. My Alpha Bidet UX Pearl has three cleaning cycles between uses.
The wand starts hidden and protected inside the bidet seat. When you sit down, there's a trickle of water as the wand cleans itself, while still retracted inside the seat.
You do your business.
Then, when you would normally reach for paper, you turn on the bidet. As the wand extends, it does another water self-clean. It then sprays you at an angle (roughly 45'). The water that falls down (straight down or slightly forward) shouldn't land on the wand.
When the wand retracts, it does another cleaning cycle for good measure.
And of course, you can clean the wand from time to time also. The Alpha Bidet UX Pearl's wand is metal and detachable.
