Are you conscious of the environmental impact of your dental hygiene routine?

Packed with fascinating insights about the waste problem in the dental industry, this episode may leave you with a new perspective on the seemingly harmless items we use everyday from toothbrushes to dental floss. In the second part of the dialogue, we dive into Lynda's innovative idea – a dental subscription box with a twist. Her eco-friendly box not only aims to promote better dental health, but also to reduce the environmental impact that standard dental supplies have been contributing to for years. A reflection of her own journey with recycling and reusing, this service is a radiant demonstration of how each one of us can make a difference.
