How can we help you?
We are here to help guide our patients so they can make informed decisions about their dental care. This is why we love to answer your questions!
We've gathered some of the most common questions we hear at Sky Vally Dental; however, please feel free to contact our dental office if the answer you're looking for isn't here.
Emergency Dentistry
We are usually able to get our patients in the same-day for emergencies to have the problem area assessed. Sometimes we are even able to provide same-day treatment to resolve the problem but if that is not an option we try our best to provide temporary relief until we can reserve a time for the definitive treatment.
Is a gum abscess an emergency?
A gum abscess is usually accompanied by pain and swelling, even fever. This is a true dental emergency and you should seek a dentist’s help right away!

There are many reasons why your tooth can be in pain. However when a tooth is in pain that usually means there is a big enough problem (i.e. caries, fracture, gum infection) that is affecting the nerves in and around the tooth that needs to be taken care of sooner than later.
Schedule A Dental Exam in Monroe
The first step should be to call your Monroe, WA dentist and set up an exam where the dentist can pinpoint the cause of the pain and also prepare a solution for that tooth or area.

How We Help With Your Dental Emergency
When you call, a supportive member of our dental team will take your call and ask you about your symptoms. They’ll determine if your situation requires same-day emergency treatment, or if we can safely schedule you for our next available appointment.
The first step is to get you out of pain and make sure you’re comfortable. We may be able to complete treatment that day, but we will provide the interim relief you need until we can make an opening in our schedule for you.
