Berkeley, CA (September 24, 2012) The Eco-Dentistry Association will offer a free webinar on the benefits of running a state-of-the-art dental practice and demonstrate how implementing the latest technology can help reduce overhead costs, increase efficiencies, attract new patients and reduce the industry’s environmental impact as a whole. The webinar will take place on Thursday, October 11, 2012, from 5:30-6:00 PM PST, 8:30-9 PM EST, and is available for registration through the EDA website at: http://www.ecodentistry.org/?page=HighTimeWebinar.
The free webinar, titled “High-Time for High-Tech”, is part of the EDA’s first educational campaign focusing on how technology helps dental offices reduce waste and pollution and save energy, water and money. According to the EDA, many dental practitioners already take advantage of digital dentistry and may not realize that their office is greener than they think. “There’s a 1:1 correlation between the high-tech choice and the eco-friendly choice,” says EDA Co-Founder Ina Pockrass. “Our ‘High-Time for High-Tech’ webinar will help dentists, students, practice managers and other industry professionals get the most out of the investments in technology they’ve made and learn more about new innovations that can make their practice even more profitable and more environmentally sound.”
The EDA encourages individuals in all areas of dentistry to attend the webinar and learn about the staggering environmental impact dentistry has on our planet and how we can all make a difference. “It’s important to understand the relationship between dentistry and our environment,” says Pockrass. “After all, can you imagine practicing modern dentistry without reliable access to clean water?”
