Dr. Howes has a great team here, and is a great dentist! Camille is the BEST dental hygienist, and I actually really enjoy my cleanings! The ladies at the front desk are very friendly too!
Nice people, they took their time cleaning my teeth, their prices reasonable
I have been seeing Dr Howes and his team for many years! He is an exceptional dentist, he will listen to cares, concerns, wants and even wishes, and will always make decisions on what is best for the patient. I have had fillings, root canals with crowns, and most recently, he extracted what was left of my top teeth and we installed a top denture. During the simplest procedure to the most recent upper denture, I have always felt safe, well listened to, and very well taken care of. Going to the dentist is never fun, especially in my case! But I do believe with Dr. Howes and his team, I have had the best care possible as he and his staff truly care about me, the patient!
I am the worst patient ever and my dental assistant, Crystal, is so calm and so gentle and so kind. And my dentist, Dr. Howe, is also gentle and thorough and he listens. The only complaint I have is no nitrous oxide. My teeth are so sensitive and my anxiety is high at the dentist.
My appointment was quick and painless. Dr. Howes is a friendly and caring dentist who does amazing work. The staff made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend Fort Des Moises dental!! They are the Best!!
