| Popis: | The sustainability of the natural resources of our planet is a topic for worldwide debate. Mankind, during its evolution as a species, has not been greatly concerned about conserving the environment in which we live. Nowadays we are reaping the fruits of this neglect. Climatic changes and storms are good examples of this. We, humans, must re-think our attitudes in order to leave the planet in a healthy state to be used by our descendants. But thinking of orthodontics, what can we do as orthodontists? From this perspective, the authors of the present study aimed, in a clear and objective manner, to present simple and sustainable ways to proceed during our activity as orthodontists, in order to minimize the effects on nature, caused by man. RESUMO A sustentabilidade dos recursos naturais de nosso planeta é tema de debate em todo o mundo. O homem, durante a evolução como espécie, pouco se preocupou em conservar o meio ambiente em que vive. Nos dias de hoje, colhemos os frutos do descaso; mudanças climáticas e tempestades são bons exemplos disso. Nós, seres humanos, devemos repensar nossas atitudes, a fim de deixar o planeta propício para que nossos descendentes possam utilizá-lo. Mas, pensando-se na Ortodontia, o que nós ortodontistas podemos fazer? Nessa perspectiva, os autores do presente estudo se propuseram a apresentar, de forma clara e objetiva, formas simples e sustentáveis para serem utilizadas durante nossa atividade como ortodontistas, a fim de minimizar os efeitos causados pelo homem na natureza. |
