ECO-DENTISTRY UNPLUGGED: Cutting Waste and Water for a Greener Practice Healthcare is entrusted with protecting human health, yet paradoxically it is also a significant contributor to environmental pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, excessive water consumption, and the generation of hazardous waste. Dentistry, while representing a relatively small component of the healthcare sector, consumes enormous quantities of disposable plastics, chemicals, paper products, electricity, and water every day. From sterilization procedures and radiographic processing to dental impressions, suction systems, restorative materials, and personal protective equipment, modern dental practices generate environmental footprints that are rarely measured and even less frequently addressed. Eco-Dentistry Unplugged: Cutting Waste and Water for a Greener Practice offers a timely, practical, and evidence-based roadmap for transforming dental practices into environmentally responsible healthcare facilities without compromising patient safety, clinical excellence, or financial sustainability. This comprehensive volume bridges the gap between environmental science and clinical dentistry by translating global sustainability goals into practical actions that every dental professional can implement. Unlike books that merely discuss climate change or environmental awareness, Eco-Dentistry Unplugged focuses on actionable strategies that reduce waste, conserve water, improve energy efficiency, and promote sustainable clinical decision-making. The book demonstrates that eco-friendly dentistry is not simply an ethical obligation but also an economically sound and professionally rewarding approach that aligns with modern standards of healthcare quality. Beginning with an exploration of the environmental challenges facing global healthcare, the book examines how dental practices contribute to carbon emissions, biomedical waste generation, water depletion, and plastic pollution.
