Sustaining Our Community With a World Focus

Tuesday, December 6, 2011 by Michelle Stafford, DDS

Here at World of Smiles, Pediatric Dentistry, we take the concept of world to heart! We’ve made intentional decisions on the business level to model sustainability – choosing for example to remove paper towels from our staff lounge to limit our use of natural resources, using recycled paper for copying and printing, recycling all plastics and paper products, and using dishes instead of paper products.

We also recognize that part of creating a sustainable community is to create connections, relationships, and educational opportunities,  Many of our dress-up days and community volunteer activities connect directly with our families and their rich traditions.

This holiday season, we will be taking that same spirit of community into our office celebrations, encouraging our patient families to learn more about a variety of cultural traditions, including Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and a history of St. Nicholas and Santa Claus. Join with us in expanding your global perspective on the values and traditions that are experienced around the globe.
