6.3 Water usage and care

6.3.1 Water Treatment

Wastewater treatment is an important aspect of sustainability in dental hospitals. Dental procedures generate a large amount of wastewater that contains contaminants such as blood, saliva, bacteria, mercury, and other chemicals. These pollutants can pose a risk to the environment and public health if they are discharged into the sewer system without proper treatment. Therefore, dental hospitals should implement wastewater treatment systems that can reduce the environmental impact of their activities and comply with the regulations and standards for water quality.
