Orem Pediatric Dentistry

The first time we came to this office, several children were crying in the waiting room. They were crying because they didn't want to go home! I took it as a positive sign and I have not regretted it. Dr. Howell is honest, experienced, and great with children.

He takes the time to get to know his patients, and has called after office hours to see how my child is doing after any significant work has been done. The level of personal care and understanding is not something I have seen elsewhere. I almost wish he worked on adults too.

Dr. Howell is absolutely amazing! From the moment we walked into his office, he made both my son and me feel completely comfortable. I initially came to Dr. Howell for a second opinion after another pediatric dentist told me my three-year-old needed a filling and would have to be put under general anesthesia. I left that first office feeling scared and unsure, but thankfully, I found Dr. Howell.

From our very first visit, Dr. Howell took the time to get to know us, asking questions about our family before even reviewing my son's X-rays. I truly appreciated how patient and understanding he was. He carefully listened to my concerns and provided alternative options, including using nitrous oxide instead of general anesthesia. His expertise and caring approach put my mind at ease, and I felt confident moving forward with my son's procedure under his care. Dr.

Howell genuinely cares about his patients and goes the extra mile to make dental visits a positive experience. He even personally called us later that day to check on my son, which was so thoughtful. A few days later, we received a personalized letter in the mail congratulating my son on his bravery, decorated with stickers and signed by the office staff. That small gesture made his whole week! If you're looking for a pediatric dentist who is patient, kind, and truly invested in making dental visits stress-free for both kids and parents, I highly recommend Dr. Howell. We are so grateful to have found him!

5 stars all the way! Amazing children’s dentist! My son Leo has been coming here for 2 years now and I plan on taking my other son once he’s old enough as well 🤗. The staff and Dr. Howell are so friendly my son loves going there even after having multiple teeth removed. They have the cutest play waiting area and a price machine for after you’re done 🥰 I highly recommend.

TLDR: Dr. Howell and his team are exceptional in their care and expertise. Without a doubt, their pediatric dentistry is world-class. The staff were wonderful to work with. They were very welcoming and adept in understanding what kind of dental care I thought my son needed, what my priorities were for his teeth (functionality, appearance, cost, time, etc. ), and how they could provide that kind of care, according to those expectations. We ended up having to schedule a root canal because of the state of my son's cavities. Leading up to the root canal appointment, I got multiple calls from Dr.

Howell's assistant and the anesthesia care team, preparing me and my son for the upcoming appointment. Earlier today, the anesthesiologist & his team had no problems helping my son 'take a nap' and Dr. Howell got straight to work. There were two times when Dr. Howell paused his work and either gave me an update or asked my permission to change the plan we had agreed to before. He had originally been planning on using white filling on a tooth, but upon further inspection found it needed a crown to better protect it from future cavities. I had no reason to distrust his reasoning and trusted his expertise to do what was necessary. At the end of the procedure (an hour and a half) they brought my son out to me.

He was waking up and doing really well. The staff had me wait for about 10 minutes so that he could wake up and they could make sure he was fit to leave. I would recommend Dr. Howell and his team to any parent needing any kind of pediatric dental care. Your family will be in good hands and they absolutely deserve your business.
