PROTECTING OUR PLANET
'Best care' includes caring for our environment. Here are some of the ways we practice eco-friendly dentistry…
Recycling
We are part of the Oral Care Recycling Programme, run by Terracycle in partnership with Colgate. We can recycle:
- toothbrushes
- toothpaste tubes
- toothpaste caps
- floss containers
- outer packaging materials
Simply give your Colgate product recycling to the reception team and we'll take it from there.
Technology
Digital x-ray technology means no dark rooms equipped with tanks of fixer and developer solutions. This removes the need to use these toxic chemicals and manage their disposal.
Our suction system includes a Cattani Hydrocyclone amalgam separator. This uses centrifugal force and filters to remove amalgam particles from wastewater before it enters the city sewage.
