Abstract

Proper handling of biomedical and dental waste management is an essential responsibility for the dental profession. This can be achieved by reducing waste, improving efficiency and lowering pollution. A green dental office can use reusable towels, biodegradable cleaners and high efficiency machines. The office should have an environmentally sustainable method of disposing of toxic waste. It can also use papaerless records to lower its paper consumption. All of these steps will make the overall impact of the dentist office less damaging to the environment.
