We could all do better. In this episode we talk about sustainability which. for some, is just a buzz word but for many its a conscious action to help our planet. We have so much waste in dentistry and there are several little things we can do to contribute to sustainability and Brittany Cox is our expert in this. Many thanks to Tim and Trisha at O'Hehir University for the connection. They are doing amazing things to meaningfully contribute to oral health behavior change and our next two episodes are a testament of that.
