Is eco-conscious dentistry truly achievable? – insight from a conservationist

Naturalist and adventurer Cat Capon speaks about the dos and don'ts of eco-conscious dentistry – and why sustainable living is not about dramatic changes.

In our latest episode of Dentistry Talks, we welcome Cat Capon, a conservation expert, who explains why we should and can care for the future of this planet – and it doesn't mean giving up all the things you enjoy.

Cat discusses why sustainability and conscious choices as both a business and individual are crucial, revealing practical ways that dental teams can make eco-conscious decisions.

From natural elements in practice design to eco-tourism, Cat explores a range of ideas that can be considered to not only improve the planet's wellbeing but produce better businesses.

We also cover Cat's journey as a woman working in a male-dominated space, where she speaks candidly about the struggles of balancing parenthood with her career – and how she has tackled the guilt that came with it.
