Summary: | This paper forms part of a series of papers, seven in total, which have been requested by colleagues to help them as clinicians understand sustainability as it relates to dentistry. This paper focuses on waste and how the dental team can influence how waste is processed and disposed of. It is the authors' hope that this series of papers stimulates interest, debate and discussion and, as well as being economically responsible, ultimately motivates and inspires the dental team to be more socially and environmentally sustainable which in turn will help promote health and illness prevention. |
