"Traditional dental practices generate a significant amount of waste and consume a lot of resources," said Greener Dentistry founder Davinder Raju. "We wanted to create a toolkit that breaks down sustainability into manageable steps, so dental professionals can positively impact the environment without sacrificing the quality of care they provide to their patients."
The toolkit includes a range of eco-initiatives, from reducing water and energy consumption to minimizing waste and using environmentally-friendly products. Best of all, the entire toolkit is free for all dental professionals. For those who want to take their commitment to sustainability a step further, membership is available for only £12 per month.
Members who achieve a certain level of sustainability will be eligible for an accreditation award and a license to use the Greener Dentistry certification mark. This mark demonstrates a commitment to sustainable practices and can help dental professionals attract environmentally conscious patients.
"We believe that sustainability should be accessible to everyone, which is why we've made our toolkit free to use," added Davinder Raju. "We're excited to see how the dental profession will embrace these eco-initiatives and work towards achieving our accreditation award."
Greener Dentistry is committed to helping dental professionals make sustainable changes to their practices. Our comprehensive toolkit is the first step towards a greener future for the dental profession.
