Sustainability in practice: A dental case study – Incredible Smiles

This case study was prepared by Rawtec and 2XE for the Australian Dental Association, South Australia, with support from Green Industries SA through the Lead-Educate-Assist-Promote grant program.

It is one of 3 case studies developed to inspire dental practices to strengthen their sustainability and realise the potential cost, efficiency, and environmental benefits.

Incredible Smiles is a large dental practice with 18 dental chairs across 5 sites in South Australia, treating more than 700 patients each week. The practice is committed to delivering high quality patient care while making sustainability a core business priority.

This case study highlights 3 of the many sustainable initiatives implemented by Incredible Smiles.
