Partner Profile Stone Oak Orthodontics is a leading-edge orthodontic office specializing in orthodontic treatment for children, teenagers, and adults. Dr. Norris recently challenged the office to take a bold commitment to creating a low-impact work environment. To respond to that challenge, the office uses 100 percent wind power, recycles all non-clinical paper, plastic, and glass, and uses biodegradable liquid sterilization solution. In addition, they give five cloth "Love Your Mother...earth" grocery bags to every new patient. Stone Oak Orthodontics found that switching to wind power was very easy to do, and recycling efforts have become a way of life. "We feel great about what we are doing for mother earth, and all of our staff members have taken home this philosophy to strive for low-impact living," said Dr. Norris.
