What Our Patients Say About Us

Single-Family Boulder Toothache Calls
Single-family homes near Boulder Avenue and 32nd Street West keep us steady with toothache calls, especially from parents who noticed something was wrong days ago but held off. We have seen back molars with decay that had been building for months finally hit nerve tissue at the worst possible time. A Tuesday before a work presentation. A Friday before a camping trip. The pattern repeats.
We have treated patients who drove straight from Boulder Elementary drop-off, still in their car line clothes. A toothache does not care what is on your schedule. If you are looking for a dentist in Billings MT, call us and we will work to get you in as soon as possible.
Apartment and Rental Units Near Boulder Park
Renters near Boulder Park tend to wait too long. We have had patients from buildings along 32nd Street West who sat on a toothache for a week hoping it would settle down. By the time they call us, the problem is usually a lot worse than it needed to be.
Shumway Family Dentistry does not take insurance. You pay directly, and we give you clear pricing before any treatment begins. No surprise bills after the fact.
Renters in this area deserve the same care as everyone else. We treat them that way.
Same-Day Abscess and Infection Cases
A throbbing abscess that woke someone up at 2 AM. A child running a fever with a swollen cheek and a parent who has no idea what to do. We have had both of these walk in from the Boulder Park area, and each one needed to be seen that day.
Patients come in with swelling, with fever, with pain that has gotten out of hand. We look at what is happening, take X-rays if we need to, and walk you through what the tooth needs. Some of these visits turn into a root canal. Some need an extraction. We tell you straight.
If you think you have an abscess, call us before you decide whether it is serious. We will help you figure that out.
Cracked and Fractured Tooth Repair
Cracked teeth are one of the more common calls we get from active families in this part of Billings. We have repaired fractured molars from kids who took an elbow in a pickup basketball game near the park, and seen adults who cracked a tooth on something that should have been harmless. The emergency dental service in Billings page has more detail on what we handle.
What matters with a crack is how deep it goes. We take a look, get X-rays when we need them, and tell you what the tooth needs. Sometimes it is a bonded repair. Sometimes it needs a crown. If the crack goes too far down, we talk about extraction.
Weekend and After-Hours Extractions
Dental pain does not hold off for Monday. We get calls from Boulder Park patients on Saturday mornings and Sunday evenings, and the problem does not care that it is inconvenient. When a tooth is badly infected or broken beyond repair, extraction is sometimes the most direct way to end the pain.
We have extracted teeth for parents who could not make it through the weekend and for people managing pain way longer than they should have. After the extraction we walk through the healing process and whether a replacement makes sense for where that tooth was.
Call (406) 248-7500 and tell us what is going on. That is what Shumway Family Dentistry does.
We also serve nearby West End, the South Side, and the Shiloh Crossing corridor.
