Sustainable Dentistry: Eco-Friendly Products for Dental Offices

May 5, 2023

Sustainable Dental Products for Dentists and Dental Hygienists

One of the greatest aspects of life on earth today is the freedom of ideas and the worldwide distribution of goods at fast speeds and low rates. However, so many cheaply manufactured products have caused us to become somewhat of a “throwaway society”, where we throw things away frequently and would rather trash something and buy a new one than try to fix it.

Chances are, you have heard the word sustainability before, but you may not be entirely sure what it means. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA), sustainability is the principle that we depend on the natural environment for every aspect of our survival. They elaborate, saying:

“To pursue sustainability is to create and maintain the conditions under which humans and nature can exist in productive harmony to support present and future generations.”

What is Sustainable Dentistry?

Part of the solution involves people from every industry to be more active in their efforts to use eco-friendly products, to produce eco-friendly with natural source materials, and to reduce, reuse, and recycle whenever possible. Sustainable dentistry is the practice of dental offices utilizing sustainable products. We are Hager Worldwide, a company providing specialty products to dentistry, and today we would like to discuss three of our best sustainable products for dentists.

Our Sustainable Dental Products

If you are a dentist or dental hygienist, then you know firsthand just how many products your practice uses monthly. Now, imagine what a difference it would make for the environment if all the products you used on your patients were green, eco-friendly products. Then, imagine if every dental practice in the country made these changes, and across the world, and across every other industry out there? Your local dental office might feel small, but it is part of a much bigger picture. Here are three products to get you started on your sustainable dentistry journey!

Happy Morning “Bio”

  • The Happy Morning “Bio” is an eco-friendly disposable toothbrush that’s made from sugarcane and is completely biodegradable.

Bio Vacuum Tip

  • The “Bio” Vacuum Tip is a fossil-free, bio-based high volume aspiration tip made from sugarcane. This is an eco-friendly option that doesn’t cost more than traditional vacuum tips.

BioGuard – Biological Vacuum Cleaning System

  • The BioGuard Biological Vacuum Cleaning System is an effective way to clean vacuum systems at a dental office.
  • It attacks, dissolves, and consumes organic waste to reduce them to harmless natural elements.

Why Make the Change to Sustainable Dentistry?

Becoming a sustainable business can open many doors for your business. The government offers a variety of green initiatives to encourage sustainable practices, as well as green certifications that help legitimize your business as officially sustainable. Plus, there’s the added benefit of knowing that you are doing the right thing and having a positive impact on the world and the environment. If you have questions for us about any of our sustainable dentistry products, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Sustainable products for your dentist office are only a click away!
