Services
Tooth-colored restorations, also known as composites, are silver-free, mercury-free and BPA-free fillings placed to restore your tooth's natural appearance. Composite restorations are perfect for fixing small to medium sized cavities, chips, and broken teeth. They are more durable, less invasive, and less temperature sensitive than standard silver fillings.
We offer a variety of cleanings and gum treatments to fit all of our patients' needs. Some patients just need a standard cleaning, where others may require more extensive deep cleanings. Our Dental Hygienists are trained and equipped to treat most patients right in our office and rarely need to refer to a specialist.
Dr. Fred Schilling or Dr. Maggie CravenThompson, and the team at Skyway Dental Clinic in Minneapolis know that a cavity can strike at any age, and in any mouth, which is why they offer durable composite fillings for all ages. Call or book an appointment online today for more information. Cavities, also known as tooth decay, are essentially damage to the tooth that can't be reversed by brushing and flossing alone. These permanently damaged surfaces in your teeth eventually form tiny holes, which only grow larger when left untreated.
Missing teeth can make simple tasks like smiling and chewing seem intimidating. At Skyway Dental Clinic in Minneapolis, Dr. Fred Schilling or Dr. Maggie Craven Thompson and a dedicated team of experts can help restore your natural smile with support from a dental bridge. Call or book an appointment online today for more information on how a dental bridge can improve your smile, so you can look and feel your best. A dental bridge is exactly what it sounds like: a "bridge" that connects the surrounding teeth to fill in the blank space left by a missing tooth.

Dr. Maggie is the best! Always letting me know my options and walking me through the procedure at hand. Very detail-oriented while making me feel comfortable. Everyone in the office is delightful and Cindy at the front desk always greets you with a warm smile. I actually look forward to my dentist appointments thanks to all the great staff.

Dr. Maggie was awesome, took time to discuss dental history and explained everything that she did. Was able to answer questions and offer suggestions for care moving forward. Location is convenient; staff were all stellar and calm. Very thankful that I've chosen this office for my dental care!

The team at Skyway Dental always goes above and beyond in friendliness and professionalism. They are relaxed and comforting, even when you may feel stressed about seeing a dentist. Dr Fred is really great at explaining everything he is doing and why. I recently had an impacted piercing in my face. My MD did not know how to attack this problem, so he just gave me an antibiotic.

The piercing person I saw later, said I should see Dr. I called my dentist, at that point. Somehow I knew Dr Fred would figure this out, and he did not disappoint. He also made sure any dent in my face would be on the inside, by the procedure he used. I have gone to Skyway for any other real dental needs for at least 5 years and plan to continue. GREAT people and SMART dentist.

The staff we're nice and friendly, but It felt like it was just a quick one and only last less than 30 mins. I can still feel in my teeth that it still needs more cleaning. It wasn't thorough or something. My apologies for giving this review but that's how I felt. Thank you!

This is by far the friendliest dental office I've been too since leaving my hometown dental office. All the employees were incredibly friendly, the front desk ladies walked me through everything, they communicated everything clearly to me to make sure my experience was excellent! Dr. Thompson was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job. If I lived in the area permanently, Skyway Dental would be my dental office.

Highly recommend Dr Maggie and her team: friendly, efficient, competent - what more can you ask for? Equipment seemed state of the art to me, and my hygienist did a great job with thorough cleaning. I felt very well cared for. The business pays for parking, which is much appreciated, and the clinic is totally accessible via skyway system.

I had the opportunity to meet Cindy, Eileen, Kim, and Dr. Thompson. All four made my experience at Skyway Dental Clinic phenomenal! I have always struggled with insecurities regarding my teeth. When I went into the clinic, each of them welcomed me with a positive attitude and a smiling face (through the mask, but I could tell). Dr. Thompson listened to what I wanted, gave me the options I had, and explained each option in detail.

She is very kind and helpful in finding what would work best work for you. For the first time in a long time, I am very happy with my choice to make Skyway my primary dental provider. If I could give them 6 stars, I definitely wouldn't hesitate!

As an adult I should be embarrassed to admit that I still have anxiety about going to the dentist, but after coming here I don't think that will be a problem anymore. All of the staff are wonderful, kind and fun. I laughed while I having my work done and I was still smiling when I left. If you have been avoiding the dentist try coming here. They are fantastic. I highly recommend! Thank you Skyway Dental!

Fred is an exceptional dentist. He helps us keep our oral condition in an excellent condition for more than 20 years. Fred put crown on of my teeth many years ago. Two months ago, I felt pain on this tooth. Today I visited his clinic. Fred gently removed top portion of the tooth. To my great surprise, at the end, he told me today's service was free. To me Fred took his dental services extremely seriously! That touch my heart!

Prompt and efficient as always. Fred's been my dentist for 40 years, and yes, that means he's old.

This is so far the worst dentist I have seen in my entire life. I travelled and lived in 4 continents and I have never met a dentist with such poor customer service and lack of professionalism until I met Dr. Fred. His strategy focuses mainly on upselling you services that you don't need or exaggerate minor/no issues to pressure you to go back and invest in their overpriced yet poor quality services.

I have had different bad experiences with these guys, but the worst one is when Dr. Fred pressured me to restore 3 teeth that were healthy, just had silver filling (never caused any pain for the last 7years).he lied and said that I will have decoy under 3 teeth if I do nothing about it ASAP. Of course, I trusted him and his recommendation so I gave them the go ahead to do the restoration on 8/11/2021, but I wish I did not.

Since that day, I have been in so much pain; toothaches, headaches, and later on this also caused an abscess on my neck. I returned 5 times to see Doctor Fred and he did not do anything to ease the pain apart from asking me to increase the dosage of pain killers which did not really help. I confronted him and I asked him if he is going to take responsibility for this malpractice so first he agreed and said that if there is any issues with one of teeth, then he will extract it then replace with an implant as he was the reason why we decided to change filling even though those teeth were healthy. Later, they changed their mind and all disagreed and denied the fact that he admitted to me that he might have made a mistake when he did the bonding. Dr. Fred told the staff to call me and ask me to go see an endodentic specialist and use my insurance to cover the expanses which was really unacceptable. Today, I am dealing with fixing an issue done to my teeth that will cost me thousands of dollars due to Dr. Fred malpractice and I don't think as a patient I deserved to deal with all of this on my own. I highly recommend to stay away from these hustlers and go see a real dentist.

Very friendly and professional office! I've been going to Dr. Thompson for the past year and everyone in the office is so friendly. I really enjoy going to get my cleanings as they are always so thorough and efficient. During Covid times they take extra precautions and I have felt very safe getting cleanings during this time. Thanks for keeping my smile looking great!

I was in excruciating pain and needed one of my bottom molar tooth pulled. I called over 6 dentist and none had same day openings, as I was scrolling continuing my search this dentist came up. I called immediately and spoke to a woman who could hear how much pain I was in, she handed the phone to Doctor Schilling's. This angel of a man heard my cry, pain and suffering and gave me a same day appointment.

I went in staff was excellent and so was he. I loved how much he was willing to help me out as well as educate me along the way. My extraction was quick without any pain. Thanks to all of the beautiful excellent staff here. I would HIGHLY recommend this place.

Dr Schilling and his team make me feel completely comfortable and at ease in thier office. I had the most detailed exam and cleaning I have ever had. Even though I moved offices from downtown, I will still see Dr Shilling and his team for my dental care.
