A year ago I moved to Polson from the southern Oregon coast to live with my daughter and son-in-law. I have experienced dental care from numerous dentists during my eighty six years, some pleasant some not. That said, I was a bit nervous having to get established with all new doctors in the health care community in Polson. My daughter assured me I would be pleased with her dentist at Big Sky Dental. We were greeted by a very pleasant receptionist welcoming me to be a member of their family oriented practice. Upon meeting the dental assistant (who was also very personable), she explained the procedures she would do to provide the exray and pictures. As she continued her work, she would explain each step and chatted with me as a new friend getting to know me, this eased my anxiety. Now it was time to meet Dr. Chris who also chatted with me about my family, activities and thoughts about the community. The examination of teeth and surrounding tissue for overall health explaining what he saw and of importance to me, what he didn’t see…like infection. As a former nurse, I am extremely aware of infection control in all areas of medical and dental offices where I receive care. I left the office feeling my anxiety gone and looking forward to a mutual trusting relationship with Big Sky Dental. Respectfully, Claudia Hovick
Best appointment ever!
You guys crush it! Thank you!
My semiannual visit at Big Sky Dental was another positive experience with hygienist Lori who was highly professional and efficient, but also friendly and caring.
Dr. Clave is so wonderful. He is thoughtful and respects your time and budget. I highly recommend him!
We were on vacation and my son’s new braces broke. Called the office and they were able to get us in on the same day!!! Was amazing and so helpful!! Such friendly staff! Thank you for saving our vacation!!
Great skills, great comfort, great customer service!
I was absolutely thrilled with my appointment at Big Sky Dental. Dr. Chris Clave took an exceptional amount of time to discuss my unique concerns and treatment options, and he went even further by patiently answering all of my questions until I felt completely confident about the timeline and process ahead. The support staff were equally impressive—warm, welcoming, and professional—creating an environment where I felt comfortable expressing my worries and concerns. I highly recommend Big Sky Dental, Dr. Clave, and his outstanding team!
so friendly and very professional
They was fast and very good. Explained everything in detail.
Everyone at the office are kind, knowledgable, and comfortable to be around. Would highly recommend this dentist and dental office!

Always an excellent visit and very professional! Thank you !!

2017:When we moved to Montana, I selected Big Sky Dental because Dr Clave chose the Polson area to raise is family, because he is relatively young which means more modern dental education and up to date treatments. We have not been disappointed. Excellent customer relations; excellent dentistry. Excellent staff. THANKS Dr Clave and all. 051718 forgot appt, got call to come in late anyway. See above, nothing has changed, except now familiar with staff and almost two years of dentistry to wife and I from Dr. Clave and staff – – top of the line! 052019 As ALWAYS, in for 6-mo cleaning/check up with my preferred dental hygenist. We left a great dental staff in Oregon and I researched thoroughly before choosing Big Sky. Modern, professional dentistry at its best. 112119 As ALWAYS, in for cleaning/check up with my preferred dental hygenist. As usual she did a great job – – no pain, lots of gain. Then with Dr Clave; took up some areas of concern, made plan, made appointments to carry out plan. Easy as 1, 2, 3, A, B, C – – – did Jackson Five just pass through? 120319 Bottom row, front five, surface fillings to prolong life and limit further friction/pressure damage – – without anesthesia; no pain. Then state of the art (digital) modeling for night guard. AS USUAL SUPERIOR patient care and gregarious and thoughtful staff. 010720 As ALWAYS, excellent staff, professional, friendly, prompt. 052620 Semi-ann cleaning. Wondered aloud why manual tools instead of the usual ultrasonics; advised that it is a Covid19 precaution as the ultrasonics cause an atmosphere/cloud of saliva moisture. Anyway, hygienist did the most comfortable cleaning with manual tools I have ever experienced! Viva, Big Sky Dental ! ! ! 120320 Semi-annual cleaning. Wondered aloud (habit) about continual upgrades to methods and equipment – Dr Clave upgrades methods and equipment when he is certain of a distinct value to both his patients and his practice. As usual, efficient, gregarious staff are the jewel in the crown (okay, okay, pun intended. 011922 In for semi-annual cleaning. Talked with Dr Clave about new equipments – he has his eye on upgrades that add to his ability to deliver modern dentistry to us patients. Then had teeth cleaned – expertly and painlessly AS USUAL. Big Sky Dental is TOPS! Highly recommend Dr. Clave and crew. 012423: As usual, from receptionist to hygeinist to dentist, on time, superbly professional but friendly – – engendering a comfortable atmospher – – this is the place! 030524 In for semi-annual cleaning. As usual, had teeth cleaned expertly and painlessly – – did I mention: AS USUAL? Talked with Dr Clave about his new lazer and its various applications; eight years ago, when we moved to Polson, one of the reasons we chose and have remained with Big Sky Dental is that Dr Clave ensures that his dentistry is kept modern. Kudos to Dr. Clave and crew ! ! ! 050824 In for cavity filling – – I can’t even believe I had a cavity! But, as usual, Dr Clave and staff got me in, prepped, fixed and out the door with a perfect fit filling. Again, did I mention: AS USUAL? Kudos … as usual … to Dr. Clave and staff. 100924 In for semi-annual cleaning- AS USUAL, excellent cleaning. Also discussed change in provider status with Delta Dental; we discussed pocketbook effect of change – – and discussed Big Sky Dental membership plan and benefits which appear to be significantly less expensive than my annual plan with Delta; am still doing some investigating but will probably drop Delta at end of plan year and go with Dr. Clave’s plan. Kudos to Big Sky for having the receptionist also be the billing person who is knowledgeable and can discuss ramifications of both plans! 070725 Consistency … see all previous postings for past eight years … the only thing that has changed is that Dr. Clave has continued to update his practices and equipments – including minor interior design which welcomes his patients. It doesn’t get any better – sure it does. 012026 Business as usual excellent care excellent staff thank you
Very pleasant employee.
Great dentist office and staff
Dr. Clave and everyone on the staff are exceptional people and very dedicated to their patients and their occupations. Highly recommend and you’ll be happy you did.

It was a good visit. Very happy with my service.
They are all great here. I’ve been going here for at least 18 years. I love them all. Very friendly and helpful. Thank you .
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. I had my regular cleaning the other day and as expected Lori did a great job. Dr Clave and staff are always wonderful. I had a cleaning last week and they found 2 decades old crowns that had out lived their usefulness. Back on the 13th and Dr Clave went to work removing then repairing the two and the new crowns made in office put in place and I was out the door. Great crowns and I’m very happy. Thank you Dr Clave.
Amazing! They were able to use lasers on my cavaties and didn’t have to numb me with the shots!!! Most incredible experience getting my cavaties fixed that I have ever had!
Very good and gentile with the tooth cleaning. I fear dentist for that reason. These guys definitely know what they are doing. Kudos!
Everyone at the clinic is very kind and thorough! Lori always does an amazing job.
Best hygienist in polson.
They have alot to prove. Actions speak louder than words. In past experiences not with big Sky, It has been highway robbery. Ungodly bills n just temporary bandages that undoubtedly were not permanent fixes as promised. Wholeheartedly gonna try one more dentist out. Big Sky Dentistry I feelTransparency needs to be upfront n foremost! Wishful thinking…… Deb
I have no complaints about your service. It was great.
Friendly, kind, knowledgeable and gentle staff. They took their time cleaning and were gentle.
My cleaning was well done. Everyone is so professional

Great care…..don’t care for going to the dentist but Big Sky Dental is a pleasure.
I have always had a good experience at Big Sky Dental even though I am one of the many that find going to the dentist a bit stressful. Dr. Clave and his staff and very welcoming and always explain in detail what to expect which I truly appreciate. I would definitely recommend this dentist to any one like me who needs a bit more patience and understanding while in the dental chair. Thank you to you and your wonderful staff!
Dr. Clave and team did a fantastic job replacing a crown that was giving me challenges based on fit and shape. My original dentist replaced it once and I still continued to have the same challenges. I no longer have issues with food getting caught or impacted potentially causing further issues. I’m very grateful and amazed at how much it was impacting my ability to eat. I highly recommend Big Sky Dental for their skills, kindness and professionalism.
Great dentist office! Extremely nice staff! Super affordable and they help in any way possible! Would highly recommend for anyone!
The dental team worked with diligence and care to complete a difficult and lengthy procedure. They were very attentive to any pain and discomfort. They worked quickly and efficiently to finish in a timely manner. Am very willing to return and recommend them for dental issues. They are both competent and congenial. You will walk away satisfied!
I have had extreme anxiety about going to the dentist since I was a child. I recently moved and was very worried about finding a new dentist, but I didn’t need to worry! Everyone at Big Sky Dental Clinic in Polson was amazing! So kind and patient. I would recommend them to anyone!
I love the quality and high level of care I receive from Big Sky Dental. Dr. Clave and his staff are the best! I live in Rollins and work in Kalispell, so the drive is especially far and can be very treacherous in the winter. The quality visits make it all worth it. 😊 …
Traveling & the Big Sky team fit me in! Moreover they are pro’s with expert level skills & accommodating professionalism. I wholeheartedly recommend them & did so by bringing their business cards back to my resort to refer future travelers in need.
Great first time visitor experience. Beautiful extremely well equipped facility and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Personal attention from Dr. Clave . Received professional assessment, immediate attention to pressing needs and initiation of a future program of care. Just what I was looking for. JTT
I’m always amazed at Dr Clave and the staffs pursuit of excellence, both in patient care and advanced technologies. When you’re having work done you know that you are being taken care of.
Dr. Clave and his staff are always accommodating, polite, and through and their dental work is top notch!
