"Save 90 a day," by turning off the tap water while brushing
I spent some time today looking at the website ecodentistry.org. One heavily promoted part of their site is the "Save 90 a Day" campaign. The premise is simple - Turn off the tap water while brushing your teeth and save 90 glasses of water each day. Pretty easy, isn't it? Our family has turned off the tap water for years now while we brush, but I didn't think about letting my patients know about this. Most people are not averse to saving water and money, so this should be another easy step to take to help the environment. So brush and floss daily, and don't forget to turn off the water!
