SERVING THE ENVIRONMENT

ezgif.com-optimize.gif

At Rooted Dental Wellness, we serve our community with top quality, general, cosmetic, and preventative holistic-minded dentistry. Our priorities are not only on patient safety & patient care, but also, protecting the environment.  We use the safest materials the industry has to offer, the most advanced dental technologies, and eco-friendly systems that reduce our office’s carbon footprint.

As a part of this commitment, we have invested in a number of eco-friendly systems. For your safety, we have most recently installed the latest chemical-free dental waterline disinfection system, providing the cleanest water to our dental procedures. We are very proud to be the first dental office on the Central Coast of California to be offering this water system to our local community. Today, Dentaqua is the only product that has been independently peer-reviewed to maintain dental waterline safety in long-term clinical settings. In recent years, a number of fatalities and multiple injuries have been directly linked to contaminated dental water. In 2016, 68 children were hospitalized having contracted serious mycobacterial infections directly sourced to the dental water in an Anaheim, CA. clinic. A lawsuit filed March 2, 2018 in Clayton County, GA,  claims almost 24 children contracted Mycobacterium abscessus infections at a GA clinic as a result of contaminated water. Competitor products, while known to kill microbes in suspension, do not adequately eliminate the underlying problem of microbial biofilm, which is the source contamination in dental waterlines.

In addition to being water nerds, and making sure we use the best water to eliminate contamination, we prioritize reusable and biodegradable products. In our office, we have products ranging from potato skin based micro brushes, biodegradable resealable sterilization bags and pouches, to a fancy “needle melter” eliminating bio-hazard companies who leave a big ol’ carbon footprint. We are not only intentional about what goes into our patient’s body, but our offices “body”.
