Previous fears of going to the dentist? Those will all wash away once you step into Dr. Howard's office. . . Best dentist I've ever had. Dr.

Howard and his staff are super friendly, down-to-earth, educational (I learn something about dental hygiene and health on almost every visit), and they actually play good music in the office (mostly). They make sure you're very comfortable and take their time with you. Highly recommend. . .

Our dentist of over 30 years retired and we we dreaded trying new dentist. Dr. Howard was recommended by a friend and we couldn’t be more pleased. Dr. Howard and staff are not just good at what they do, they are friendly and welcoming. A great dental experience.

Dr. Howard and his team are amazing! As a person with major dental anxiety, it was nice to come to an office where my anxieties we're understood, and addressed accordingly. Once, I was running late for a teeth cleaning (because of the city we live in), and Tammi and There's stayed over an hour later to make sure they got me in! I'm super grateful, and would HIGHLY recommend Dr.

Howard for folks with anxiety about the dentist, want a judgment free dentist, and excellent customer service. This office really cares about their patients!
