Since November, we've been offering same-day crowns and bridges right here in our Shoreline office. No temporaries, no waiting on an outside lab, no extra appointments. You come in, we make your restoration, and you leave with the finished result.

But dental insurance companies have introduced a new requirement we've never encountered before...

Dr. Rafoth wrote about it directly on our blog — including an alternative membership plan called Clerri that gives patients discounted care without the insurance runaround.

Curious? Give us a call and we'll walk you through it.
