D. K. (Verified Patient)

This review is based on my experience on the 1st visit and correlates with what I heard from friends prior to and which led me to Dr. Clave’s practice. The staff were all professional and very observant of Covid protection measures. The cleaning was excellent and very thorough… she was not satisfied until repeated inspection proved the process complete. Subsequently Dr. Clave performed a detailed inspection of my mouth and the xrays that were taken. We sat down to discuss how to proceed as there is a lot of work to perform to take care of my dental issues. He collaborates with orthodontists and oral surgeons for specialized issues. We discussed several options as the resolution to my issues is very expensive due to implants and crowns. His focus was on what basic things need to be done to protect the integrity of my teeth and those that are more cosmetic. To sum up… 1st visit was very positive! 2nd, 3rd, 4th … visits have confirmed my first impressions and now he’s helping with my sleep Apnea appliance. Yes, I’ve helped Chris to make his mortgage payments through my extensive dental work but I got something significant and long lasting for my investment. consistently goes beyond working with me on Sleep Apnea device. Another good experience… I still whole heartedly recommend Dr. Clave for the reasons previously mentioned

I was absolutely thrilled with my appointment at Big Sky Dental.

I highly recommend Big Sky Dental, Dr. Clave, and his outstanding team!

Dr. Chris Clave and staff are great. I’ve been going there for several years and wouldn’t go anywhere else for my dental needs. I highly recommend them. I recently had an involved procedure done. Dr. Clave replaced all my old crowns on my upper back teeth. my front teeth had a lot of fillings so he crowned those also, in total 14 teeth. Dr. Clave’s assistant Lauri made all the crowns in their lab and they all fit perfectly the first try. My teeth lock great now thanks to Dr. Clave and Lauri. I had my teeth cleaned on Tuesday by Lori my hygienist. As usual see did a great job. As always I recommend Big Sky Dental Clinic.
