H. Peter Ku, D.D.S., PA Offers 'Going Green' Dental Advice

Fort Worth, Texas- March 27, 2020-Being eco-conscious is perhaps the best thing we, as a whole, can do for our environment. While dental hygiene seems like an unlikely place to include eco-friendly practices, it is another excellent area to focus on. H. Peter Ku, D.D.S., PA, is proud to offer a few tips to ensure not only good oral care habits but also lessening the impact on the environment.

One of the easiest changes a person can make is switching their choice in toothbrushes. While plastic is undeniably the most commonly found, bamboo is the eco-friendly choice. Plastic toothbrushes aren't biodegradable. They will sit in the landfill for over 400 years, versus all-natural bamboo.

Most floss and those floss products with plastic handles aren't biodegradable. The best option here is to pick up a reusable floss handle to limit the amount of waste and solve the problem of plastic handles. The more a person can do to stop unnecessary items from going to the landfill, especially plastics that are unable to break down.

Water conservation is essential to our planet too. For those that leave the water on while brushing their teeth, simply turn off the tap. This can save hundreds of gallons of water annually per person. This practice is something everyone can be doing and requires no additional purchases to reduce the carbon footprint.

H. Peter Ku, D.D.S., PA, is a number one rated dental office located at 3045 Hamilton Ave, Fort Worth, TX 76107. The practice believes in doing whatever possible to minimize their carbon footprint. The dental office has made considerable strides in using eco-friendly products to help reduce waste in the landfill and provide safe dental care to patients.

When choosing an eco-friendly dental office, look for items like Zero-VOC paints used in the office, dry vacuum pump,chlorine-free recycled paper, and reusable autoclave wraps. These are all excellent alternatives that reduce energy usage and waste.
