environmental stewardship
At ORA Dental Studios we have designed a dental practice that reflect our commitment to the well-being of our patients, team members, community, and environment. Through diligent planning we have created high performance green facilities that are a healthy, productive place to work; less costly to operate and maintain; and reduce our environmental footprint.
The creation of our practices strictly followed LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and GGHC (Green Guide for Health Care) protocol for construction of dental practices* LEED is a nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. GGHC is a best practices guide for healthy and sustainable building design, construction, and operations for the healthcare industry.
ORA Dental Studio are proud members of the Eco Dentistry Association, Teleosis Institute, United States Green Building Council, and an Energy Star partner. We are also committed to offsetting our carbon footprint by annually contributing to reforestation campaigns, energy efficiency programs, and renewable natural energy sources.
(* - West Loop and Gold Coast were pre-existing locations and are currently in the process of greening their facilities and operations.)
