Having just returned from my dentist - who surprised me by asking for tips on greening their practice - I came across some excellent ideas from Treehugger.
Suggestions include buying green power to run surgery, using 'composite resin' as an alternative to mercury-based amalgam fillings and digital imaging instead of traditional x-rays (which means 75 to 90% less radiation).
North of the border, here's a Toronto-based practice that promotes eco-friendly dentistry - Front Street Dental. And a shout out to 720 King West Dental - just because they're great.
