Yesterday marked the 41st anniversary of Earth Day, and our team at Pearland Pediatric Dentistry realize we are living in an age with a renewed commitment to conservation, and are frequently reminded to recycle, reduce and reuse. Today, we thought it would be a great time to discuss everything that we do at our Pearland office to conserve our natural resources and the environment.
In order not to use potentially toxic chemicals and to conserve developing paper, we use digital radiographs, and have been since we opened in 2005. We also recycle in our office and the company we use for shredding recycles all of the paper they shred!
In addition, did you know that we offer patients account access 24 hours a day, seven days a week? We offer convenient and secure online services with our patient login system. You can view all of your account information, and even receive appointment reminders through email or text messages. Since this information is submitted electronically, we eliminate the use of large amounts of paper and printing materials.
What about you? How did you spend Earth Day? What are you doing to "go green" or reduce your ecological footprint this year? We invite you to post here or on our Facebook page!
