A dental practice can have the best technology in the city and still fall short if it does not care about the people beyond its front door. Real community involvement means showing up where it counts, advocating for those who often go underserved, and treating neighbors with the same dedication given to any patient in the chair. In Seattle, WA, that kind of commitment is not just admirable; it is necessary.
At Seattle Smiles Company, community is not a marketing talking point. It is something we live out through the work we do and the people we serve. From supporting local health initiatives to providing specialized care for the men and women who serve our country, we are proud to be a downtown Seattle practice that gives back in meaningful, lasting ways. Learn more about us and the values that guide everything we do.
Serving Those Who Serve Our Country
Few contributions carry as much weight as supporting the members of our Armed Forces, and Dr. Ajay Kashi has made this a cornerstone of his work outside the office. He regularly assists with troop readiness exams at defense installations in and around Seattle, helping ensure that servicemen and women receive the thorough oral health evaluations necessary for their mission readiness.
Supporting Veterans Beyond Active Duty
Dr. Kashi also routinely assists veterans with disability evaluations, recognizing that the commitment to those who have served does not end when their service does. This work reflects a deep sense of gratitude and responsibility toward the people who have sacrificed so much for this country. It is one of the most personal ways we as a practice give back to our community.
For veterans seeking dental care at our office, we offer special discounts on implant and surgical work as an ongoing acknowledgment of their service. We believe that access to high-quality dental care should never be a barrier for those who have given so much, and these promotions exist to make that belief a reality.
Oral Health and the Broader Community
Investing in community health means understanding just how far the reach of oral disease can extend. According to the CDC, the United States loses over $45 billion in productivity each year due to untreated oral disease, and more than 2 million emergency room visits annually are tied to dental conditions that could have been caught and treated far earlier. These numbers reflect a systemic gap that local practices can help close through education, outreach, and accessible care.
Education as a Community Resource
We strive to engage with the Seattle community in ways that go beyond our treatment rooms. Spreading awareness about preventive care, routine checkups, and the modern dental options available to patients helps reduce the hesitation that keeps many people from seeking the care they need. An informed community is a healthier one.
Part of that mission is making sure patients understand all the resources available to them. Whether that means walking through our financial options during a free consultation or helping a patient navigate insurance, we approach every interaction with transparency and a genuine desire to help.
Making Care Accessible for Everyone
One of the most direct ways to give back to a community is to make quality care affordable. We accept some PPO insurance plans and offer multiple financing options through Sunbit, Alphaeon Credit, Proceed Finance, Scratch Pay, and CareCredit. We also offer an in-house financing option specifically designed to help patients afford complex procedures through manageable monthly payments, a resource that sets us apart from most practices in the area.
Our membership plan is another way we extend access to patients who do not have dental insurance. Rather than leaving people without a clear path to care, the membership gives them an affordable, straightforward option for maintaining their oral health throughout the year.
For patients who have avoided the dentist due to fear or anxiety, our sedation dentistry options make it possible to receive care in a calm, comfortable setting. Nobody should let anxiety stand between them and a healthy smile, and our team is trained to make every visit feel as easy as possible.
Seattle Smiles Company: Proud to Be Part of This City
Seattle Smiles Company is more than a dental practice. We are a neighbor, an advocate, and a resource for the community we are honored to serve. From the veterans who receive care and support through Dr. Kashi’s dedicated outreach, to the families and working adults who rely on our flexible financing and accessible services, every part of what we do is built around the people of this city.
Located at 600 Broadway, STE 600 in downtown Seattle, we offer free consultations, free 3D CT evaluations, and same-day services designed around the real lives of our patients.
