Meet Our Dentist
Dr. Kristin Oliver, DDS
Dr. Oliver is originally from Parsons, KS. After high school, Krissy attended Labette Community College where she played volleyball and softball for a year while she earned her Associate's Degree. She then transferred to the University of Kansas (Rock Chalk!) where she received a Bachelor of Science in Cell Biology. A few years after graduating from KU, Krissy attended the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Dentistry where she graduated with her Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree in 2013.
Dr. Oliver relocated to Southwest Missouri promptly after graduation and began her dental career at the Children's Smile Center in Ozark, MO. Dr. Oliver spent a few years practicing part time at the Fordland Clinic in Fordland and at Clear Creek Family Dental in Strafford and Ash Grove. In 2017, Clear Creek Family Dental opened a location in Clever, MO, where Dr. Oliver has been the sole provider. At the end of 2020, Dr. Oliver became the owner of the practice now named Clever Family Dental.
Dr. Oliver has a son, Sutton, and 2 Boxers, Piper and Oscar, that keep her very busy while not working. Sutton plays basketball from the time he wakes up until the time he goes to bed! Dr. Oliver enjoys spending time with her family in Kansas and Oklahoma and attending continuing education courses in her free time.
Dr. Oliver’s goal for Clever Family Dental is for everyone who walks through the door, patients and staff, to feel like family. She wants her patients to feel comfortable and will go above and beyond to make sure they feel safe and welcome.
