My dental history began in Findlay, Ohio, where I grew up interacting with the profession first-hand in the form of my father; a practicing dentist. After graduating from Ohio University, I went on to earn my dental degree fromThe Ohio State University College of Dentistry. While at Ohio State, I served as the Team Dentist for all athletic teams.
I have served my community in many ways. I have served as president of the W.D. Miller Dental Society of Knox and Licking Counties and currently serve as treasurer. I am a member of the Mount Vernon Rotary Club. My sense of service has led me to travel to Haiti on five separate mission trips to provide dental care for the underprivileged following the devastating earthquake in 2010. I was honored to be awarded aCertificate for International Serviceby the American Dental Associations Committee on International Programs and Development.

Nobody likes going to then dentist and getting their teeth worked on but if you're going to have anyone work on them we definitely recommend our dental hygienist Caylyn! Between my wife and I we've visited a few different dental offices trying to find one we both like and we finally found it! Caylyn is the best hygienist we've ever seen hands down! She not only was great with us but she was great with our 4 year old son! We took him to another dental office in town and it was a nightmare but at Dr. Howe's office with Caylyn he did amazing! She was so nice and comforting for him! If you're not getting your teeth cleaned by her then you're missing out! Thank you Caylyn for the great work you do and making our dental visits more enjoyable!

Honestly the absolute best dentist experience I have ever had. Coming from someone who HAD a major fear of going to the dentist, this is definitely the place to go for any of your dental needs. Brian and his team did an amazing job making me feel comfortable and did an amazing job explaining everything to me on terms I would be able to understand. This dentist office is now the place I will always go and eventually bring my little ones there too because it is an amazing experience! Thank you so much to the amazing staff, you all are amazing people!

Seriously, one of the BEST dental offices I've EVER visited! Every single person I interacted with was kind, understanding, helpful and motivating. I've been searching for a good dentist for every bit of 4 years. I am so thankful to Dr. Howe and his entire team for making me feel so relaxed and at ease, without judgment. I hope they know what a difference they've made in easing my anxiety when it comes to going to the dentist!!! Ellie is absolutely amazing!!! It has been forever since I've had dental X-rays that didn't leave me in tears or gagging. Lol Beyond grateful to have finally found a dentist and an entire TEAM that GENUINELY sees patients as people instead of dollar signs.
