It’s a good place. Everyone is always very nice. They’ve made having braces as enjoyable as it can be (not very but still.)

I came to this office for Invisalign and I couldn’t be any happier with that decision. They were so helpful during the entire process and made it feel way easier. The front desk ladies always remembered my name, and the staff as a whole are super charming, very welcoming and really make it such a comfortable place. Dr Howell knows his stuff! Really nice and down to earth guy who is precise and neat about his job. Literally the only minor ehhh with this place is the privacy. People can see your “Aahhh” and “Awww” faces because it’s one big room, but you get over it. Absolutely recommend this place to anybody and have already pointed people this direction. Thanks Howell gang!

Dr. Howell is amazing! Very fun and inviting atmosphere! His staff always have a smile and are willing to answer any questions regarding treatment. My son just had his braces put on yesterday and I am very grateful that he gets to go through this process with Dr. Howell. My daughter was also a patient of Howell Orthodontics a few years back. I highly recommend him if you or your family are looking for braces/treatment.

The first thing I noticed was the inviting waiting room. There is a small room for kids with video games and other activities.The front desk ladies are warm and welcoming. It's clear they are expecting you to walk in as they greeted my daughter by name.The doctor is so busy running from chair to chair but never to busy to answer all the questions I had and talk about my concerns. The assistants are fantastic and helped my daughter feel comfortable and explained the process to her.I'll add to this throughout our experience since it's going to be years of bracesHighly recommend.

Referred to Howell Orthodontics by my dentist and nothing but great experience so far. Consultation was informative. Plan options were explained. Our many questions answered. Never felt rushed into a decision. Our 1st of two kiddos is having his install today and we're excited for his future results. Thanks, Howell Orthodontics!

I expected orthodontia for my family to be stressful, expensive, and uncomfortable all around but Howell Orthodontics is SO amazing! The doc and the whole team are friendly and helpful and down-to-earth and careful. They listen to us when we ask questions or have concerns, and they treat my kid with respect too; always seeming happy to see her! I love that we found this clinic. The clinic culture is warm and fun and all around excellent!

We chose this practice after getting quotes from two different offices. This office was the only one to catch an airway issue that required surgery on x-ray before we got braces on my teen, so we chose them based on this health alert that was missed by others. Howell Orthodontics keeps orthodontic treatment fun and laid back. They engage children in the process of their care. They see patients of a wide range of ages. They give a 5% discount for cash pay for treatment in advance, which includes retainers and repairs after treatment is concluded. Dr. Howell’s staff always treats us kindly and with respect. We will definitely be returning if we have additional needs in the future in our family.

I am currently doing Invisalign at Howell Orthodontics - I have to say I was skeptical about what this was going cost and the length of treatment - however the team at Howell was nothing short of AMAZING! They were able to work with my insurance as well as a payment structure and I have to say this was much more affordable than I initially planned! Their communication is outstanding, and their bedside manner is great as well. Thanx y'all I look forward to a straighter smile 🙂

Howell orthodontics is amazing! The staff is so kind & knowledgeable. My kids love the kid area in the office. Wendy did a really good job explaining exactly what hardware my daughter would need & broke down the cost. She helped me with all my questions & concerns as well & got an appointment for my daughter to get her braces very quickly. The day my daughter got her braces the staff really helped her not be afraid. The staff guided her through exactly what was going to happen step by step & made sure that she had everything she needed for her after care. I would highly recommend Howell Orthodontics.

I have had a great experience with Dr. Howell. One kid has had braces and has such a beautiful smile. He is so happy with his appearance now it is amazing the difference. I currently have another one of my kids in braces and the difference in his attitude is so heart warming. He is so much happier now. I am also currently in the process of another kid starting his journey. Then onto the next. I will bring all my kids back to Howell Orthopedic. I have also referred my best friends daughter and she is currently in braces and is super happy. It is such a happy place.Update!!Whoop whoop 🙌🏼 since this review, We just put braces on our 4th son! I love this group! Always so fun walking into the office with such great welcoming smiles! Then leaving so satisfied with their work! Only 2 more boys to put braces on! Heck yeah! Let’s Go!!

After researching and meeting 5 different Orthodontics we selected to go with Howell Orthodontics. From the moment I stepped into Howell Orthodontics, I knew I had made the right choice for my son's orthodontic care. The clinic itself boasts a welcoming and meticulously clean environment, setting a reassuring tone for every visit. Wendy did a fabulous job explaining the process, payment options, and the plan and she answered every question I had. Wendy provided clear explanations of procedures and is transparent about costs and payment options The team at Howell Orthodontics is exemplary. Each member, from the receptionists to the dental assistants, displays a level of professionalism and warmth that makes every visit enjoyable. Their dedication to patient care is evident in their meticulous attention to detail and the patience with which they address any concerns or questions. Madelyn was extraordinary with my very fidgety, anxious son. What sets Howell Orthodontics apart is its exceptional customer service. Appointments are easy to schedule, with flexible hours that accommodate busy schedules and after-school hours available. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure comfort and satisfaction, offering support and guidance throughout the entire treatment process. In conclusion, my experience at Howell Orthodontics has been outstanding. The combination of advanced orthodontic services, a highly skilled and caring team, and unparalleled customer service makes Howell Orthodontics the go-to place for anyone seeking to improve their smile. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone considering orthodontic treatment. Thank you, Howell Orthodontics, for exceeding my expectations and providing a level of care that truly stands out.

We are very happy with Dr. Howell and the staff! They took the time to explain every step and process to my daughter. They even went as far and working the schedule to accommodate the fact that we live out of town. They installed braces immediately, even though the appt was only for the the consultation. The office doesn't feel like your typical dental/ortho office, it's very open and fun.

Six of my children have been patients of Dr. Howell and we are big fans. He and his staff are all about patient experience and making braces/orthodontic treatment as enjoyable as possible. Besides the expert orthodontic treatment, Dr. Howell has a great rapport with the kids. Everyone on his staff is kind, friendly, helpful, and expert at what they do. Howell Orthodontics takes care of families and incorporates fun contests/prizes to incentivize kids’ involvement and ownership in their treatment. Dr. Howell has been compassionate and understanding when working with my kids who’ve had a harder time tolerating braces. Highly recommend!

Howell Orthodontics was amazing to work with. My daughter was pretty nervous throughout the entire process from start to finish. But all the staff were very patient with her and helped her along the way. She isn't finished. But will not be afraid to return for a second round of braces in the future. We are glad we were able to work with this office and all the wonderful staff over the last year and a half!

Dr. Howell and his team were nothing but amazing throughout my entire treatment. They were honest in their initial consultation on what would be my best course of treatment and remained consistent. Every assistance that I worked with was gentle, personable and accommodating. Karly even offered to stay during her lunch to remove my braces! Maddie was the main assistant i saw and she made every appointment so enjoyable. would recommend their office to anyone who is looking!

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!
