Grassroots product evaluation: Cranberry Bio Nitrile gloves
Single-use dental items are absolutely necessary, but they don't decompose in the landfills. Cranberry has addressed this problem. What do users think of the gloves?
Have you ever thought about what happens to the single-use items we throw away after each patient? Studies show that an average of 21 single-use plastic items are used and discarded during a single patient encounter, much higher than before the pandemic.1
Imagine 21 items multiplied by several patients per provider in a single day. It’s safe to say that a majority of practices do not recycle their disposables, which means that all this clinical waste occupies landfills without ever biodegrading.
