Clear Blue Smiles™ Partners with TerraCycle® to Take a Transformative Step Towards Eco-Friendly Clear Aligner Treatment
Clear Blue Smiles Takes Strides in Sustainability and Patient Care Through Free Recycling Program
“We are looking forward to offering a truly comprehensive clear aligners recycling program for doctors and their patients," said Kevin Dillard, CEO of Clear Blue Smiles. "Removing plastic that we create from the environment is a vital component of our commitment to elevating sustainability standards in the dental industry."
By partnering with TerraCycle, the Clear Blue Smiles Free Recycling Program is making it possible for patients to easily recycle aligners after treatment. Patients simply collect their used aligners and use a prepaid label to ship them to TerraCycle to be sorted, cleaned, and re-molded into new products.
“Clear aligners are a great option for those looking for an alternative to traditional braces, however their convenience also generates a significant amount of plastic waste,” said TerraCycle Founder and CEO, Tom Szaky. “By creating a sustainable end-of-life solution for clear aligners, Clear Blue Smiles is taking action to address one of the biggest waste challenges the dental industry faces today.”
Clear Blue Smiles believes that the journey to a healthier smile should also be a journey towards a healthier planet. By embracing these innovative solutions, patients and dentists can confidently make choices that positively impact total dental health and the world around them.
