INFORMATION ABOUT THE INSIGNIA / EMBLEM / LOGO:

The American Dental Association started using this insignia as the official symbol of dentistry in 1965. The emblem of dentistry is taken from Asclepius, a Greek god of medicine and healing. His symbol is a physician’s staff with a snake wrapped around it. The snake’s shedding of skin represented healing and rejuvenation. In honor of Asclepius, ancient Greeks would use non-venomous snakes in healing rituals and let them crawl freely on the floor among the sick and injured.

On the periphery of the emblem, you will notice two Greek letters, Delta ( Δ ) and Omicron ( Ο ). Delta represents dentistry, and Omicron is a symbol for odont, or tooth. The word “Dentistry” is inscribed upon the bottom half of the circle.

The interior of the circle is a particular shade of purple called lilac, which dates back to the National Association of Dental Faculties in 1897. To this day, dental graduates use purple in their gowns and caps, and the color is often found in dental publications.

In the center of the insignia there is snake coiled around a physician’s staff comes from Asclepius, the ancient Greek god of medicine and healing.  Behind the snake there are two branches bearing 20 berries and 32 leaves representative of the permanent and temporary teeth.

Our ecofriendly reusable cotton grocery bags are a simple daily essential and a great alternative to disposable plastic bags. Why use a plain reusable bag when you can use a bag that is customized and personalized to reflect you and your personality?

Our cotton totes are perfect for groceries, and can also be used to haul other stuff around as well. These totes are slightly larger than an average size tote - these cotton totes are 15" wide by 17" high, and have a 6" bottom gusset, which means they can hold more stuff and bulkier items.

Made from 100% cotton, these gusseted cotton grocery bags are great for the environment. They help reduce the amount of disposable plastic grocery bags that end up in our landfills and oceans.

These reusable bags are made from 100% cotton which is a great sustainable alternative to disposable plastic shopping bags.

These cotton totes are washable and easy to care for, and they can be folded flat for storage. Your artwork, logo, or photo is printed in full color directly on the cotton tote in the front.

Since the totes are a natural off white or "Kraft color", and white ink is not used in the production of these bags, the natural beauty of the canvas like material and colors will come though the artwork.
