Buying Local in Boise

Buying Local in Boise A lot has been made lately of buying local.  By paying for food, goods and services that are in Idaho and the places we live and work, we keep more money in State.  Plus, there is a reduction in the transportation costs associated with getting those things. 

If we can provide a comparable product to our patients using local service providers, we are going to do it.  It may cost a little more compared to sending the crown to be made out of state or out of the country, but we feel it is worth it.  The same goes for sleep apnea appliances, nightguards, etc.  If it can be made here, we are going to make the effort do to so.  Not only does it keep dollars in Idaho, but it also provides us a higher level of service personally knowing the people who do the lab work.
