It is in a constant concern for respect for the environment that the Dental Center Deschênes now proceeds to the recycling of various dental products thus avoiding the burial of thousands of them.   "We have always been very sensitive to the environment," says Dr. Isabelle Deschênes, owner of the Dental Center. "We have been recycling paper, cardboard and ink cartridges for a long time now and we are no longer offering individual water bottles to our customers. It was important, however, to do more. "   It is now possible for Deschênes Dental Center clients to drop their used toothbrushes, empty toothpaste tubes and floss containers into a specially designed container directly at the Dental Center. It is the company Terracycle, specialized in the recovery of this type of waste, which will handle the recycling at the Dental Center.   In addition, customers and staff using the Center's coffee machine will also be able to collect coffee capsules. The same goes for all latex and nitrile gloves; which can represent more than 2,000 gloves per month.   Dental Center Deschênes 98 Amyot Street # 130, Rivière-du-Loup, QC G5R 3G3 (418) 860-3368 centredentairedeschenes.net
