We have had an amazing experience every time we visit and Dr. Howell follows up with a personal phone call to check on patients after they have work done. The children have received the best treatment there and I recommend them now to all my friends and family.

AWESOME DENTIST! Overall this was a great experience. I have a 3 year old son that is on the autism spectrum and a 2 year old daughter. Most dentist are not as patient with my kids as they were. They took their time with my son and daughter and we never felt rushed.

Renan M Google Review

Dr. Howell does an amazing job every visit. My son was so afraid of the dentist before but Dr. Howell made him feel so comfortable. I would recommend to anyone.

Luke

Dental Assistant

Hi y’all! My name is Luke. I’m the middle child in my family. I have been a type 1 diabetic for over 16 years! I am also Emergency Medical Responder certified.

In my free time I love building Legos, biking, solving puzzles, playing games, singing, playing the piano, or riding my motorcycle!

One of my favorite Disney tv shows is Star Wars the Clone Wars! If I could be a Disney character, I’d probably be Obi Wan Kenobi.

Brenda

Treatment Coordinator

My name is Brenda. I’m the oldest of 3 siblings, the only one far away from home. I’m bilingual Spanish English (sometimes Spanglish) I’m married and have 3 beautiful daughters that we homeschool since 2016.  I’m a licensed insurance agent in more than 15 states. I enjoy helping people get protected and getting retirement plans in place, I also like to train new agents so they can start making money from home.

I love traveling with my little family and pets Sunny our miniature schnauzer, Gucci our miniature goldendoodle, and our horses Romano, Maestro, Picasso, Magnifico, Zorro and Farruco. We have been to more than 25 states here in the USA and we like to go to Mexico so we can enjoy its beautiful beaches and great food as well.

I love cooking, especially Mexican food. I like meeting new people and helping others.  

One of my favorite Disney movies is Wish, I like it because it tells you that you must fight for your wish and not let anyone control it. You are the owner of every single wish, and you can either accomplish it or let it be just a dream.

In my free time, I love to hike, spend time with my sisters, catch up on TV shows, and take long naps.

My favorite Disney movies are the Toy Story movies, but if I could be any Disney character, I would probably be Cinderella!
