Big Sky Dental Clinic: Chris Clave DMD

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. 😊

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!

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.

We moved to Bozeman and still drive back to Polson so that Dr. Clave and his staff will be our dentist for life. 18 month old Jake just had his first dentist visit today! Highly recommend. ❤🦷

Dr. Clave is so wonderful. He is thoughtful and respects your time and budget. I highly recommend him!

I have a complicated dental history and I am always grateful for the careful and kind treatment I receive at this practice by everyone in the chain of my care.🌷

Big Sky Dental is a team of knowledgeable and professional personnel dedicated to providing their patients with quality care. They're the best, thanks for taking such good care of me so quickly.

Best Dentist within an hour around. Went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and took the time to explain everything during my visit there. Highly recommended.

I felt Chris was very honest and did not to try to sell his product. He was informative on the obstructive sleep apnea and explained what happens to cause this. Learned more from him than the sleep center. Thank you.

I had Kristi for my teethcleaning and she was very good. I thanked Dr. Clave for helping our Grand daughter this summer with her mouth gard.

I would like to say, I was very impressed with Dr. Chris Clave's entire business experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful in all ways. Dr. Chris's work was the best experience I have ever had with a dentist. He uses the latest technology, which impressed me greatly, from production of their own crowns to latest computer imaging. I would highly recommend him to family and friends.

Excellence in every aspect of care. I came to Big Sky Dental after a traumatic experience elsewhere and Dr. Clave and his staff have turned things around for me. The care and competence exceed expectations.

Emily in the front is so kind and helpful. For the rest of my life I don’t want anybody except Rachel to do my teeth cleaning. She was thorough, gentle, and very informative about the process. Dr. Clave is the best. He carefully explained all the steps of his exam and discussed realistic options. I appreciated his scientific explanations. This dental team is the best, I recommend them very strongly!

So appreciate Dr. Clave listening and being willing to do the small things as well. It made a big difference for me today.

Dr Clave is quite possibly one of the most wonderful dentists I have had the pleasure of being treated by! He is kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable. His staff shares this compassionate approach to their patients.

012423: As usual, from receptionist to hygeinist to dentist, on time, superbly professional but friendly - - engendering a comfortable atmospher - - this is the place!

2021: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.

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 ! ! !

Exceptional care. The staff was professional and caring. They even got me in early!

Definitely would recommend Dr Clave. They got me in on short notice and took care of my broken tooth. He thoroughly went over my x-rays and he made recommendations for what would be the next best steps to take. His assistants are great!

What a wonderful experience! From the time I checked in to the time I checked out the doctor and his staff were exceptional. I lost a crown and thought it would be days before I could get it taken care of. Fortunately the doctor and the staff were able to squeeze me in on short notice and took care of the entire procedure that afternoon. I could not be happier and never thought I would make a comment like this about going to the dentist. In retrospect, I’m glad the other offices I called never returned my call. I’ve found a new dentist.

Great people to work with. I had an emergency and Dr. Clave came in at noon on Saturday to repair my problem.
