<\/figure>\n\n\n\nResponding to Critical Questions from the Jury<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The presentation session at the UGM DLC became particularly engaging when one of the jury members raised a critical concern. The jury questioned the effectiveness of a program that merely provided information about water consumption, given that patients could not simply be restricted or turned away from a clinic because its water quota had been exhausted. The jury suggested that the team develop a much more concrete solution for directly reducing water consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In response, the team representative explained that the primary purpose of the EcoDenMap database was not to restrict medical procedures but to change public attitudes through education. By encouraging early preventive measures, which require considerably less water than curative treatments, water consumption in dental clinics would automatically decrease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To address other challenges, such as limited funding and low stakeholder engagement, Anggi emphasized that the team would collaborate closely with universities and clinics while prioritizing low-cost, high-impact programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Under the broader theme \u201cSustainable Dentistry: Integrating Prevention, Innovation, and Environmental Responsibility,\u201d EcoDenMap does not seek to alter existing medical standards. Instead, the innovation represents an initial step toward a greener, more cost-efficient, and environmentally friendly future for dentistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reporter: Nanda, Andri Wicaksono, Photo: Andri Wicaksono<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fakta mengejutkan menunjukkan bahwa satu klinik gigi yang beroperasi penuh dapat menghasilkan sekitar 27 hingga 35 ton emisi karbon dioksida setiap tahunnya.
