Testimonials for Daly City Cosmetic Dentist Dr. Hovden
It’s not easy for South San Francisco cosmetic dentist Dr. Ken Hovden to blow his own horn—he’s not that kind of guy. So, we’ve asked a few of our patients to blow it for him. Let us know if you’d like more names and phone numbers. We’d be happy to provide them.

“Dr. Hovden & staff are great! They are super friendly and fast; I never have to wait for my appointment. Dr. Hovden’s exam’s are extremely thorough and painless, even goes beyond the normal dental exam (i.e., oral cancer check and fluoride treatment). It is a friendly, family like environment. Dr. Hovden always asks about my family and remembers our conversations form visit to visit. Plus you get a toothbrush and lip balm after each visit. I love the lip balm!”

“I had a great experience with Dr. Hovden and am so pleased with his cosmetic dentistry work. I went in for my first appointment six weeks before my wedding, hoping to fix a few things that have always bothered me about my smile. Dr. Hovden was very accommodating and created a plan to fix the problem areas in my short timeline. Every detail of the process was thoroughly explained and a very conservative approach was emphasized. He focused on making sure I was happy with the progress and results on each visit. I was thrilled with the outcome and LOVE my smile! I would highly recommend Dr. Hovden to anyone looking for a cosmetic dentist. He is a true specialist and great takes pride in his work.”

“I am always impressed by how personalized care and professionalism of Dr. Hovden and his front office and clinical staff. I feel that my oral care and health is well managed by this organization and I fully trust all of the staff members in this office. I have been a lifelong patient of the Hovden dental family. I was a childhood patin of Ken’s mom while she was practicing and have been with Ken throughout his professional dental career. He is excellent at what he does and is always seeking and achieving new methods to improve his practice and insure that the most current methods are available to address the dental health of his patients along with the aesthetic aspects of dentistry which I believe, really do improve the quality of life of those he serves.”
– John
“I considered cosmetic dentistry for a long time to improve my smile… Having now completed the procedures with Dr. Hovden and his team, I am wishing that I had not waited so long! The whole process was easy and painless, and I could not be happier with the results, which easily exceeded my expectations. For the first time in memory, my teeth aren’t too small for my mouth, and I really like my smile! Not surprisingly, I seem to be smiling a lot more, and thoroughly enjoying the view in the mirror. Dr. Hovden is clearly a consummate professional who enjoys his work and brought all his considerable skills and artistry to bear on my smile.”
— Arch
“I am very happy because Dr. Hovden and his team did a great job. They gave the pleasure to smile and to laugh without fear that somebody will see my teeth.
Thank you Dr. Hovden! Thank you Andrea and Colleen. Thank all of you for the renewal of my confidence in myself.”
— Larisa
“I am 62 years old and I have worn dentures since I was 28. Recently, I had a dental implant procedure and for the first time in all of those years, I feel like my teeth are natural. I am very pleased with the results. Also, the implants procedure, for the most part, was relatively with little pain or discomfort.
I found Dr. Hovden and his staff to be very professional, helpful and accommodating.”
— Maria
“I am very happy with the work you have done. The veneers on the upper teeth are beautiful. You are a true professional and a cosmetic dentistry artist. You deserve all the recognition you have received.”
— Richard
“I have to start by saying how amazed I am at the amount of trust and confidence Dr. Hovden and his team have been able to instill in me over the past several years. If you looked in the dictionary under Dental Phobia you would certainly have found my picture. I can now readily admit that I no longer fear going to or even hearing the word dentist.
When I began discussing my treatment it seemed like a never ending task and I had great doubt as to whether or not I could even follow through with our plans. It is amazing how quickly it all came together and how much we have accomplished.
The concept of a team approach to understand and address my entire dental program was instrumental to this success. The team; Dr. Ken Hovden and Dr. Robert Lamb addressing Dental Restoration and Implants, Dr. Caren Hovden handling Orthodontics, Dr. Kasey Li for major Orthognathic Surgery, Dr. Terri Homer my initial Dental Anesthesiologist, and my wife Barbra for incredible support, made this process a tremendous success. It was this holistic approach that I credit not only for saving my life but also for making it possible for me to follow through with routine dental care.
The communication, trust, empathy and caring that developed among this team made a difficult and lengthy process a huge success and has made a major change in my life. I can now eat, sleep and function in a much healthier fashion and can enjoy some of the simple pleasures of life that had eluded me for many years. I thank each and every one of the team for their professional and personal attention and care.”
