Dentists are challenged to differentiate themselves in the marketplace and to attract quality new patients. Meanwhile, a growing consumer base seeks out wellness and eco-friendly businesses, but struggle to find dental offices that share their values. While the typical dental office contributes significantly to waste and pollution, there is something we can do about our profession’s contribution to environmental degradation – and many practices are already greener than they think they are!

The Case for Green Dentistry introduces practitioners to the basics of eco-friendly dental practice. By incorporating greener methods in the areas of administration and marketing, office design and construction, and dental processes and procedures, dental practitioners can differentiate themselves and serve a growing population of patients who seek out green products and services. Learn how eco-friendly dentistry benefits the planet, patient, and the bottom line.
