Conserve, recycle, reuse; the essence of a “green” lifestyle. A new article featured on Consumer Guide to Dentistry discusses the practice of “green dentistry,” a sect of dental care focused on the delivery of treatment in an eco-friendly manner. The philosophy of green dental practices is outlined in the article; to increase efficiency while reducing their impact on the environment. Green innovations include the use of digital radiography, biodegradable disinfectants and steam sterilization and metal-free restorations (like Lumineers and dental crowns). The eco-friendly article compliments more than 100 pages of consumer-friendly dental information covering all aspects of care, including dental plaque, tooth decay, xylitol, dentures and more.
