We care about the environment and our community.
We have made better choices throughout our design and our practices to ensure that sustainability and green dentistry is at the heart of everything we do.
We like to ensure our dental treatments are as planet-friendly as possible, and our mission is to promote awareness and education of sustainability within dentistry.
The X-rays we use are digital rather than traditional. Not only is this the most advanced technology, meaning less radiation, it also ensures no toxic chemicals are being used to process the imagery.
We do not place any mercury fillings at Treehouse Dental and we have amalgam filters and separators installed, which ensures no mercury ever enters our water systems.
We encourage our patients to use plastic-free floss and toothbrushes and we are an official partner of PARLA toothpaste – the most ethical and sustainable toothpaste on the market.
We have joined a movement called Green Dentistry that helps us to make better choices for our planet. This is an online app that breaks sustainability down into bite-sized chunks and helps us to develop a greener practice.
At Treehouse Dental, we designed our practice from scratch.
Not only did this mean we could create a purpose-built site that is the perfect environment to provide the best dental care in Crouch End, it also meant that we could build it to a sustainable specification.
Here are some of the aspects we have incorporated:
We have used natural products for our flooring, which are organic rather than the traditional rubber used in most dental practices
Rather than plaster and other potentially toxic materials, we have used natural products in more than 90% of the build, including clay and limestone
Rather than paint, our walls have been covered with organic and chemical-free materials. They are absolutely beautiful too!
All lighting in the practice is efficient LED lighting
We use motion sensors in areas that are used less frequently in order to save energy
The heating in the practice is provided by very efficient systems, including heat pumps
All windows have been fitted to be as energy efficient as possible
We have installed energy-efficient hand dryers to all bathrooms reducing our need for hand towels and paper
Our clinical waste is collected by a waste contractor who also generates electricity during the disposal process.
We are proud of the space that we have created and we believe you will love it too. Why not join the green dental revolution and book your appointment with us today?
At Treehouse Dental, we know that using paper is a huge drain on our planet’s resources.
We only use recycled paper for our stationary and appointment cards, and these are used only when absolutely necessary.
We encourage all of our patients to be paper-free too. We can email treatment plans and information rather than providing printed material. We can also provide appointment reminders via email and text message too – we try to make everything as digital as possible.
Of course, all paper and plastic packaging used in our practice is recycled, and we do not use single-use plastics!
