Being environmentally conscious isn't just good for our planet, it's also good for our patients.  We've made investments in technology to make your trip to the dentist healthy for you and environmentally sustainable.

Our office is equipped with the latest in digital x-ray technology.  This limits your exposure to 90% less radiation than film x-rays. They are faster, safer, and give a crisper image.   It also eliminates the need for toxic chemicals in the processing of older x-rays to keep our air safe and clean.  We also keep our landfills free from the plastics and lead found in older technology.

Our surgical grade instrument sterilizer utilizes steam based technology to kill bacteria and viruses with heat and pressure, once again eliminating the need for toxic chemicals and limits water usage.  We comply with the Oregon Board of Dentistrys and spore test weekly, ensuring sterile instruments for all our patients.  All reusable instruments including dental handpieces are sterilized before every use.

Our high-tec water filtration system allows for the disposal of old mercury-based fillings in a safe and environmentally friendly way to prevent contamination of our local water systems.

Our charting system is nearly paper-free.  All patients' records are stored electronically in a safe and secure environment, thereby eliminating the need for increased use of paper products to keep our forests thriving.

Our office makes every effort to decrease our carbon footprint from energy saving appliances to recycling. Rest assured that if it is recyclable, it will be recycled.  All metal, cans, glass, newsprint, magazines, plastics, paper and cardboard are recycled.

Our state of the art facility at Levison Dental follows all recommendations by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the Center for Disease Control (CDC), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the American Dental Association (ADA).
