You may have heard stories about the excessive time commitment that is necessary with braces. At Howenstein Dental, you can choose the 6-Month Smiles system. It's safe, effective, and provides positive results in much less time than traditional braces. You don't have to keep living with crooked teeth.
Are you not comfortable with the idea of removable dentures? At our office, you can get implants that provide a more permanent solution to missing teeth. You'll feel better about your smile, knowing that it will look more natural and help you feel more confident. Dental implants are a big change in the structure of your mouth, and it's important to have experience in your corner.

We seen Dr. Mike today for a filling on my 4 year old daughters tooth. He was absolutely fantastic! I am so thankful we started going to him for our whole family! I highly recommend! He was so good with my daughter she didn’t even cry. Best experience ever and she wants to be a dentist like dr Mike when she grows up!

Dr. Mike and his staff went above and beyond for me on my very first visit yesterday. Not only was I a brand new patient I was worked in as an emergency due to a different dentists work. I didnt have to wait long and they did not hesitate to explain my options and do their best to comfort me when I was very uncomfortable. I will never leave this place. New patient for life!!

Their business office is terrible and the dentist missed the fact that a root canal was needed on a tooth.!!Wife attended appt for fillings. She was not told they would be all resin and not amalgam. Insurance does not cover resin fillings and now I have an unexpected bill for $430.00 from this office. The business office does not work with insurance company unless you ask for a quote in advance of your appointment. They expect the patient to communicate with the insurance company. They wouldn’t even negotiate the amount due. The needed root canal was missed by the dentist when I could see it

I went for an appointment today and was very unhappy with the front desk receptionist!! She was rude! She basically didn’t want to call and verify my insurance information on her own because it would’ve taken 20mins (a lot faster than if I had called) I would’ve called with no problem but the way that she was treating me I simply decided just to walk right out and find a new doctor.

Recently moved into the area, frantically searching for a dentist. My daughter was in pain and the office was able to squeeze us in same-day on a Saturday! Staff was polite and helpful and Dr. Kevin was very hospitable and extremely knowledgeable. The staff helped make "going to the dentist" a positive and "painless" experience. Thanks!

We have been coming here for years (my husband since he was a child). Recently, my son had an accident and knocked out a tooth. They were able to get him in immediately and Dr.Mike, as always, was so kind and gentle and really helped calm my sons nerves as well as mine! Everyone in the office is wonderful but Dr.Mike is exceptionally compassionate and great with the kids!
