Why Choose and Eco-Friendly Dental Practice (Video)
Hi, friends. Today I want to speak to you about how important it is to be with an eco-friendly dental practice.
Now, especially with climate change, there are so many things that are changing. We are finding microplastics in children because our environment has become so toxic.
Now, it’s important to seek a green dentist. The reason for a green dentist is we’re obviously looking at your whole body health. That’s a given. But beyond that, we’re also making sure we’re being environmentally conscious. And by that, we’re making sure that we’re not wasting water. We’re not using toxic chemicals on you. Even the way we sterilize, it’s using steam versus chemicals. Even the stuff we use to wipe down the rooms with. We have ionic filtration. So we’re creating a safe green space for you as well.
Now, why does that matter? Because you’re breathing it all in, right? For the hour or two hours you’re at a dental visit, you’re making sure that you’re getting clean air. You’re also making sure you’re getting clean products that are not going to cause cancer or any other concerns, and that’s the reason why it’s important to see a green dentist.
