We all know that recycling dental scrap metal is good for our bottom line. But did you know that it’s also good for our environment? On this Earth Day, let’s look at the good you can do by refining your precious scrap metal.
Precious metals like gold and silver do not decompose. That means that if they are not recycled, they could potentially sit unused in a landfill forever. They can, however, be recycled almost indefinitely. When you refine and recycle your dental scrap metals, you are also reducing the need for new raw materials to be mined. This cuts back on deforestation, habitat destruction, and pollution. According to the World Resources Institute, one-third of all global forest lost between 2001 and 2024 is likely permanent.
Recycling your dental scrap metal is one small, easy step that you can take toward a sustainable future. Now through June 30, MDA-endorsed D-MMEX Easyrefine will give you an additional 2% bonus on top of the MDA member 5% bonus on the total value of your metals.
