Personal Note From Dr. Hove

To My Wonderful Patients,

It is with mixed emotions that I am writing to let you know I have made the difficult decision to leave clinical dentistry, which will be effective July 15, 2026. Due to some issues with my wrists and hands, I am no longer able to continue providing the dental care you deserve.

Serving you and your family for the past 20 years has been one of the greatest privileges of my life. I have had the pleasure to see and treat many of you for years, and you have become like friends.  I have deeply valued the relationships and trust you have placed in me and I will miss you greatly.

Thank you again for the wonderful memories and the opportunity to be your dentist. I wish you and your family a lifetime of health and happiness.

Sincerely,

Lindsay Hove Grethen,  D.D.S.
Clive Dental, P.C.

I was a previous client until my family moved. Happen to be back in DSM and had a tooth chip. Dr Hove was able to get me in quickly and fix the problem. Only wish I was able to get the same 5 star treatment where I currently live! Thank you Dr Hove and team.

I've been going to Clive Dental since before they change their name and were known as Hove Family Dental. I've always had a great experience here from the moment I walk in, up until I leave. Everyone is always so friendly and always ask me how my kids are doing. I highly recommend Clive Dental!
