Pledge for Sustainable Dentistry

Our Pledge to deliver Sustainable Oral Health

Oral healthcare is essential for overall health, well-being and quality of life.  This needs to be delivered ethically, with high levels of quality and safety and be environmentally sustainable.  In this way, the healthcare opportunities of current and future generations are respected and protected by actively minimizing negative environmental impacts.

Climate change, pollution and loss of biodiversity are problems that affect everyone, including you, your family and friends.  There is an urgent need for the oral healthcare profession to acknowledge responsibility for its impact and ensure high-quality, environmentally sustainable care for all.

Our Pledge

This pledge is on behalf of all members of the dental profession and supporting industry willing to support environmental sustainability within oral healthcare.  We have a clear responsibility to engage with, commit and contribute to global, national and local efforts to mitigate the impact of oral healthcare on the environment.  

Through this pledge we recognize the need to align the combined efforts of the oral healthcare sector to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The oral healthcare sector, working in alignment with the UN SDG targets, aims to promote patient-centred care through a circular economy that will achieve effective oral health for all and a healthier planet.

As members of the oral healthcare sector, we pledge to deliver sustainable oral healthcare through the following actions:

Increase awareness

  • Make a clear and public commitment to improving environmental sustainability in oral healthcare.
  • Communicate to all parties the need to understand, learn and promote sustainable actions.
  • Identify opportunities to promote informative messages.
  • Promote oral health and disease prevention as the most impactful route to environmental sustainability.

Promote ‘reduce and recycle’ solutions

  • Promote a reduced need for and use of resources through the delivery and maintenance of good oral health.
  • Improve waste management strategies that will enable recycling wherever possible.
  • Identify recycling opportunities at all levels of the supply chain.
  • Recycle single use plastics, wherever safe and possible, to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and encourage a circular economy.
  • Encourage and promote a ‘reduce and recycle’ mindset for all forms of packaging.

Promote sustainability as a collective responsibility

  • Collaborate for a shared vision of a sustainable future.
  • Identify ways of working together to drive a sustainable circular economy.
  • Work with legislative authorities to resolve barriers to sustainable solutions.
  • Acknowledge and promote the value of cumulative individual actions.
  • Support sustainability champions in all sectors.

Reduce greenhouse gas emissions

  • Reduce the generation of greenhouse gasses associated with the provision of oral healthcare. 
  • Adopt the use of clean renewable energy with a reduced reliance on fossil fuels.
  • Seek to minimize the carbon emissions in all processes.
  • Explore smart procurement and distribution options.
  • Compensate for unavoidable carbon emissions wherever possible.

Harnessing science, technology and innovation…to achieve SDGs

  • Implement a collaborative research ethos that drives sustainable solutions.
  • Transition towards the use of renewable energy.
  • Identify and adopt digital technologies that enable sustainable solutions at all stages of the supply chain, including patient care digital workflows.
