Aurora Dental & Implant Clinic
At Aurora Dental, we believe in the power of a healthy smile and a healthier planet.
Our dedication to sustainability goes beyond dentistry, to include green practices that have a beneficial effect on the environment. Here’s how we’re working towards a greener future.
Paperless Offices:
As we embrace the digital age, our office has shifted to a paperless environment. Electronic health records and digital patient forms have replaced traditional paperwork, effectively cutting down on our paper consumption and environmental footprint. You can now conveniently access your medical records, treatment plans, and invoices online, ensuring both ease of access and sustainability.
Community Support in Wiltshire
Recycling:
Recognising that some may not be ready to embrace eco-friendly dental care. We actively participate in recycling programs such as PodBack for coffee pods and Cartridge People for ink cartridges.
Our commitment to incorporating these initiatives into our daily operations reflects our dedication to minimising environmental impact. Thank you for joining us in building a greener, more sustainable future.
Fairtrade:
We’re thrilled to announce our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices by transitioning to Fairtrade products in the clinic. Whether it’s refreshments or office supplies, our selections now actively contribute to global communities. By embracing Fairtrade, we guarantee fair wages and enhanced working conditions for producers, perfectly in line with our principles of social responsibility and environmental consciousness.
Carbon Footprint:
Every six months, we actively assess and mitigate our carbon footprint, showcasing our steadfast dedication to environmental responsibility. Operating as a mercury-free and mercury-safe facility, we employ state-of-the-art equipment for responsible dental waste management.
This shows how committed we are to following strict rules to protect the environment. Our aim is to deliver eco-conscious dental care while prioritising the safety of our patients and community.
Energy-Efficient Practices:
In addition to sustainable products, we’ve integrated energy-efficient measures in our clinics. Transitioning to LED lighting, upgrading appliances and enhancing insulation and ventilation systems are among our initiatives. These steps not only cut operational expenses but also reduce our carbon footprint significantly.
Waste Management:
At Aurora Dental & Implant Clinic, our commitment to responsible waste management is evident through our Waste Consumption Monitoring initiative. By regularly recording and reviewing our waste consumption, we track our environmental impact, identify improvement areas, and minimise landfill waste. This ongoing commitment to assessment shows our dedication to a sustainable future and aligns our operations with eco-friendly practices.
Furthermore, to ensure the economical disposal of clinical waste, we partner with PHS Group for collection. This strategic collaboration not only upholds responsible waste management but also contributes to renewable energy initiatives. By handling clinical waste responsibly, we emphasise our commitment to environmental stewardship in every aspect of our operations.
