Howell Orthodontics was very helpful in getting a replacement retainer made when we moved to Boise. We've been pleased with their care since then. Our daughter will be getting her braces with them next month, and she's very excited about their rewards program.

We have been going to Howell for a couple of months now, and I have to say that I am extremely impressed! The facility is really clean and cheerfully decorated, and the staff is really kind and professional. They have been patient with my daughter and carefully explained everything to her at every step so she would be comfortable.I really appreciate the payment plans they offered, with reasonable prices for services. Dr. Howell is very personable and kind as well. I really can't say enough about how impressed I am with this place. Things are far different from when I had work done as a kid!

We’ve been incredibly happy with our child’s orthodontic treatment at Howell Orthodontics. From day one, the entire team has been warm, welcoming, and consistently kind. Dr. Howell is not only a skilled professional but also a wonderful listener with a gentle, encouraging approach that really puts kids at ease. We truly couldn’t be more confident or satisfied with our decision to trust Howell Ortho with our son’s care. Thank you to the whole team for making this experience such a positive one!

We feel so blessed to have been referred to Dr. Howell. He’s not just a great orthodontist, he’s an incredibly kind, generous, and compassionate person. It’s clear he genuinely cares about his patients and their families, and that really shows in how he treats us. Without going into too much personal detail, our situation isn’t the easiest, and the way he has supported us, complete strangers, has meant more than I can put into words. It’s not just about the money here — he believes in what he does and helping everyone achieve a smile they can feel confident in feels like their main end goal. You just don’t meet people like that every day.On top of that, Dr. Howell really knows what he’s doing. He’s clearly very skilled and experienced, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing Jonah is in such good hands. He explains everything clearly, answers all our questions, and always makes sure we understand the next steps. We feel confident in every decision because he’s earned that trust through both his expertise and the way he genuinely cares.Our son looks forward to his appointments, which says a lot! Dr. Howell and his team have created such a positive, welcoming environment. The front desk staff is always friendly and accommodating, and anytime he has broken a bracket or needs something fixed, they’ve gotten us in quickly without ever feeling like a burden. They’re always on time for appointments too, which we really appreciate as a busy family.They also do fun giveaways and contests that keep a 13 year old motivated to take care of his braces. It’s such a thoughtful touch, and it makes the whole experience more fun and engaging for him.We trust Dr. Howell completely and are so thankful for everything he’s done for our family. We’ve already shared his name with friends looking for orthodontic care, because when you find someone this good, you want others to know too. We couldn’t recommend him and his entire staff more.

I just started taking my daughter to Dr. Howell and my only issue is I wish I could have found him sooner for my older three kids when they had braces. Walking through the front door you feel a positive atmosphere. During the consultation for a treatment plan for my daughter, they break down everything. Everything from the gear that will need to be installed, the process, the financial breakdown. Even the way Dr. Howell sat with us and educated us about what is going on and how it could be fixed. He is about providing the best experience for his patients.

They are so fun and warm and help the kids with the anxiety of braces. They set the kids up for success! The hat pictures with Dr. Howell or caramel apple at the end are always a plus! And they are there for us with any and all problems that may arise. Best orthodontist in town!!!

They have the friendliest staff here! Everyone is so welcoming and they spent so much time with us during our consultation, answering every question we had. Dr. Howell is great with kids & everyone put my 9 year-old at ease when he was nervous for his appointment to get his braces on. It went so smoothly and it feels like everyone is cheering him on for this journey. Great experience!
