Sustainability in practice: A dental case study – Rose Park Dental

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.

Rose Park Dental, located in Rose Park, South Australia, is a medium-sized practice with 7 dental chairs and treats between 25 and 80 patients a day. The practice delivers a wide range of both traditional and innovative dental services.

This case study highlights 3 of the many sustainability initiatives Rose Park Dental has implemented, demonstrating their commitment to reducing their environmental impact while maintaining high quality patient care.
