Sustainable oral care leader now available to dental practices nationwide.
Now that PLUS ULTRA, the first sustainable, inclusive, and eco-conscious line of biodegradable bamboo toothbrushes and oral care products is partnering with Patterson Dental, dentists will now have the ability to avoid the excessive use of plastic products while offering their patients a more eco-conscious option.
Over 50 million pounds of plastic toothbrush waste ends up in a landfill every year. Dentists hand out plastic toothbrushes daily to their patients and
perpetuate the cycle of plastic being distributed and thrown away in oral care. PLUS ULTRA and its new partnership aim to change that statistic starting with the leading educators and dentists.
“The challenge is, dentists haven't been given proper access to better solutions like bamboo toothbrushes and recyclable aluminum tube toothpaste. We're breaking the cycle and are so excited to get the word out to dentists all over the country that can now easily order our products through our partnership with Patterson Dental,” says PLUS ULTRA Founder Christina Ramirez.
Patterson Dental’s network of over 100,000 independently owned dental offices and those dentists will now have the ability to be part of the solution and offer their patients a more eco-conscious option. The mindset in this vertical is shifting and dentists will be the change makers on the right side, advocating for the environment.
“We’re excited to partner with PLUS ULTRA and grow our product offering, especially given their innovative approach to sustainability and environmentally-friendly product solutions. We are very pleased to be a distributor of these products in the dental space and provide even greater options for our customers to bring to their practices,” says Taylor Callais, category manager of Preventative and Diagnostic for Patterson Dental, “Our dentists trust the expertise of Patterson Dental to provide the highest quality products and services.”
The full PLUS ULTRA for Patterson Dental offering includes the Bamboo Toothbrush, Natural Gel Toothpaste, Biodegradable Cornstarch Replacement Head, and Floss (launching June 2022).
