Its not about trying to convince you to choose what I want for you, but rather to help you choose what you need for yourself. No one understands your unique goals and values like you. I can help you understand where you are today so that you can make choices to get yourself where you want to be in the future.
Its not about pushing as many people through our office as we can. Its about recognizing that each person that visits us is an individual with unique needs. You are an individual that deserves our time and attention.
Katie and I have three young children (its about them too) and I want them to know that true success in life is all about the service and value that you provide to others. That people will forget what you do and what you say, but they will never forget the way you made them feel. Thirty years from now, when I am still your dentist, I want you to feel that choosing our practice was the best decision that you ever made for your health and the health of your family. I want you to feel that there could not possibly have been any better value out there for you. I want you to feel that every decision that we helped you to make fit with your goals and values. Most importantly, I want you to feel that you have a friend, a partner, and a confidant who values your health as much as you do.
Our team is a small group of people who come from different backgrounds with diverse training and experiences allied toward a common goal. We draw from each others strengths and support each other with a synergistic quality that grows stronger the longer that we work together.
Being part of the team of Howard Dental Center has bees such a great opportunity for me, supporting the same values, our patients, health and friendships. Ive been in the dental field for many years and have experience as a dental assistant and front office manager and have loved the many years of getting to know so many great people.
Hi, my name is Morgan. I have been a dental assistant a little over a year. I am from Green Bay, where I attended NWTC and graduated May of 2016. Being a dental assistant has always been a dream of mine and I am extremely grateful to be working with Dr. Wackwitz and his staff. As a dental assistant, it is my goal to make every patient have a wonderful dental experience and also to grow and form new relationships with each and every patient. I feel successful knowing that my patient is having a good experience and knowing that they will leave with a happy, healthy, and beautiful smile:)
At a very young age, I realized the impact that a mindful and compassionate dental care team can have. Being a frequent flyer as a child in the dental chair, my experiences easily could have turned into negative ones. Instead, my experiences were pleasant and inspired me to pursue a career in the dental field. I am delighted to be part of Howard Dental Centers team and support our primary goal: each and every one of our patients feeling as if they were truly cared for. My dental career began in 2000 and I graduated from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College in 2003. I have gained diverse experience in family and pediatric dentistry, as well as oral surgery. While patients are in my care, my goal is for each individual to feel respected, safe and comfortable. With overall health and dental health being so interconnected, much attention is paid to caring for the wellness of the entire individual, not just limiting the focus to the gums and teeth.
Outside of the dental office, I enjoy being outdoors with my husband and son. We love downhill skiing, camping, hiking and gardening. I am also a wholesome food enthusiast that stays busy in the kitchen with cooking, canning and fermenting. Since 2015, I have been a certified yoga instructor, specializing in gentle and therapeutic yoga.
I graduated from NWTC with an associate degree in Dental Hygiene in 2000. Prior to that, I was a dental assistant for many years. At Howard Dental Center, I enjoy working with like-minded professionals who value a holistic approach to dentistry.

Dr. Wackwitz and his entire staff are amazing and I wish I knew about them before. I've had awful experiences at past dentists but after one appointment with Dr. Wackwitz, I knew he actually cared about his patients. He listens to understand and makes sure you know all of your options so you can make an informed choice. He doesn't pressure you into making a decision like past dentists have. At my root canal extraction appointment he made sure I was comfortable with the procedure before beginning and walked me through everything he was going to do before he did it. If you're looking for a dentist who listens to you and wants to help you be the healthiest version of yourself, I would highly recommend Howard Dental Center!!

Dr. Brian is one of a kind! He takes all the time in the world with the patient to educate them on the oral health and how it effects all the other systems of the body! I have never been listened to so carefully and given so much time to discuss and express my concerns! Dr Brian is very friendly, knowledgeable, innovative and got all the new tools and tricks that most dentists are not even up to speed yet! He is administering ozone therapy which not every one around this area is capable of doing! He is a game changer dentist! Irina

Answer your phone! I called and got an answering machine! I left a message and after a few hours I decided to call a few other places and they all answered there phone and answered all my questions. I made an appointment somewhere else and got in the next day. Howard Dental called me back 2 days later! I made an appointment for my son and got him to the Dentist before Howard Dental could get there stuff together to call me back. Put some more stuff on your website telling everyone how much you care for your customers.

My entire family has been going here for 5+ years. Even our young kids have never complained about going to the dentist! It is very quiet, peaceful environment and there is a TV for the kids to watch during their cleaning to make it much easier. I would highly recommend this place

Dr. Brian Wackwitz and his staff at Howard Dental Center are great! After graduating college I went to a larger chain clinic where I was a number. The service was good but I felt like the advice and education I received about my teeth was generic to all patients. Dr. Brian and his staff took the time to get to know me and understand what challenges stood between me and where I wanted to be. They focus on empowering customers to take the steps necessary to achieve there dental goals. Call Howard Dental Center today if you're ready for a proactive approach to your dental care!
