Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie was great with our toddler twins! He is super informative and patient and goes out of his way to make the experience comfortable!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Kotkin and his entire staff are extremely kind, welcoming, efficient, and thorough. Dr Kotkin had us laughing throughout the visit. If I had had a dentist like him when I was a child I would have not had so much fear and anxiety about going to the dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Ten stars wouldn't be enough for Dr. Kotkin! We saw him for a dental emergency after a friend recommended him. The sheer amount of care, intellect, and kindness he showed to a new patient was a 180 from others we encountered. We drove an hour to get to his office, and he has officially earned our loyalty for years to come. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Kotkin is the best at what he does.

Experiencia fantástica: The most incredible experience for my two girls. Welcoming staff and dentist know exactly how to work with children. 10/10!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie and his entire team are the tops. They understand kids so well and instantly make you feel comfortable. I had one kid come in screaming and left smiling smile ear to ear (ready to play dentist when we get home). Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is the best. During our first visit he gave us his personal number in case of emergency. Three years later with our younger child, we confirmed he is Doctor of his word and we were able to get ahold of him immediately for a dental emergency. It was evening on a holiday weekend and he spoke to him several times that night. He saw us at 7:30am the next morning and continued to check on us through the week. He is an incredibly caring and skilled dentist. Aside from this latest ordeal, my daughter LOVES when she gets to go to his office. He has made going to the dentist a fun, positive experience. His staff is so nice and friendly. Appointments are quick and on time. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you Dr. Howie for your guidance and help in our emergency tooth situation for our 22 month old. Dr. Howie answered his cell phone on a holiday at 7 pm to talk us through the next steps then met us at the office a half hour early to triage before a whole day of work. Thank you!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie and staff are simply the BEST! They are all so friendly and make us smile. We love going!

Experiencia fantástica: Best in the biz! Kind, understanding and patient. Kids love going to the dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Always a happy place to visit. Dr. Howie and his staff are excellent at putting the kids and parents at ease. He is great at talking to the kids and explaining what is happening with their teeth and the best way to stay healthy.

Experiencia fantástica: i can’t say enough good things about our visit or our overall experience with Dr. Howie. My kids look forward to going, they are completely non judgmental and supportive while helping us learn to better care our teeth!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr.Howie takes extra care of all of my kids. He looks for the best for each of their teeth.

Experiencia fantástica: Brought my 20mo old for his first appointment, could not have been happier with the dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Always a positive and fun experience at Dr Howie’s!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Howie was wonderful as always!! My kids and I fully trust him. He takes all of the anxiety out of visiting the dentist. Actually makes it fun!

Experiencia fantástica: There has truly never been a better pediatric dentist in history than Dr. Howie!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Kotkin and the team are the absolute best with my 3 kids. They actually enjoy going to the dentist because of the friendliness, approachable and easy-going nature of all the staff and Dr. Howie. He was the only dentist that was able to get 2 of my kiddos to stop sucking their thumb many moons back. He gives kids a sense of agency and empowers them to be better about their dental health. That translates to happier and healthier kids and parents all around!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is the best! My son left the visit today saying that was so fun! Great experience for both my 3 and 7 year old!

Experiencia fantástica: We love Doctor Howie and his staff! Doctor Howie makes going to the dentist fun! Yes. Really!

Experiencia fantástica: Mary, the hygienist, was amazing with my son and Dr Kotkin was the best as always!!

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly and professional as always.

Experiencia fantástica: Love Dr. Howie. Kids have been coming here for years and always look forward to their visits. Convenient times and great care.

Experiencia fantástica: There's truly no one better - Dr. Howie is a gem and so is his staff. You're seen right away by people who clearly know what they're doing but also create a warm and humorous environment.

Experiencia fantástica: After a really bad experience with another pediatric dentist in the area, we were so lucky to have found Dr. Howie. His staff is kind and helpful and Dr. Howie is so patient and knowledgeable with my two kids. So lucky to have found this practice!!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a welcoming and pleasant pediatric dental office. Dr. Howie made my son feel extremely comfortable and his hygienist was absolutely lovely - we got great advice for maintaining good dental health. Top notch care - we look forward to the next visit!

Experiencia fantástica: love the entire staff - so patient with the little kids!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie was amazing with my 2.5 year old. He left his first dentist appt saying he had fun!

Experiencia fantástica: As always, Dr Kotkin and his staff are kind, prompt, and reliable. He also explains everything clearly, and will often suggest different ways or treatments to approach a problem rather than dictate one solution. He is also especially good with special needs patients—that is a game-changer.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Kotkin is an incredible dentist. I am embarrassed to say how many cavities he has filled for my kids but I will say he treated them like his own, put in preventative measures to keep their teeth healthy for the future, and his work has been perfect! My kids love coming to his office because they love him and the entire experience at his office. He is also very reachable outside office hours for emergencies and has called and texted us when we needed him. He is the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Today my little one was not feeling it and decided the dental reclining chair was a no no. The hygienist was kindly accommodating and my son was beaming when he came out with all his color flossers. Another great visit

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is wonderful!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is as good as it gets in pediatric dentistry. He has served our family for 15 years with such competence and friendliness words fall short in complementing his work. Dentists like Dr. Howie are rare. His office manager Judy is also a gem and helps make the whole office experience pleasant and efficient.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie, and his great staff, are a pleasure to visit!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie lives up to his reputation as a great pediatric dentist! He is warm, calm, kind and very personable, as well as clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, breaking down pediatric dentistry in a simple way for a first-time parent. We can’t wait to go back for our follow-up in 6 months! His team is also very sweet and helpful. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: My kids (6 and 3) are always excited to go to the dentist! Always have a great experience with Dr. Howie.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is so great with kids. Makes what would otherwise be a chore a fun experience for kids.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic :) my kids love Dr howie and his team!

Experiencia fantástica: My kids love going to the dentist with Dr. Howey! They literally cheer when they hear they are going!

Experiencia fantástica: The very best children’s dentist out there!!! We have been going to him for years and my boys look forward to their appointments every time.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic experience. Dr Howie is a phenomenal dentist and is great with my two kids. They actually enjoy going to see him!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is the absolute best! My kids love him.

Experiencia fantástica: He is just such a great and honest guy. I appreciate him through and through. My son started with him as soon as he turned two, and we won’t see anyone else!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie goes above and beyond and alleviates all fears in kids AND their parents!

Experiencia fantástica: So patient and amazing with kids. My daughter was so excited after her visit for being so brave and for all the goodies she left with!

Experiencia fantástica: We love Dr. Howie and his entire staff! My 3 year old son is very comfortable visiting the dentist and always has a positive experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is great!

Experiencia fantástica: Our experience with Dr. Howie just gets better and better! Unfortunately our three year old developed a cavity, so she needed it filled. The entire experience with Dr. Howie couldn't have been smoother. No waiting in the waiting room, straight back to the chair. He made sure she was so relaxed and moved fast to complete the work in a thorough way. Constantly telling us what he was doing, reminding her she'd be visiting Toy Town (his little prize section), and keeping her calm and happy. (Plus keeping ME calm!) Then he called that evening from his personal cell to make sure she was OK. Just amazing pediatric dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Great dentist with an excellent “bed side manner” and was able to get us in quickly!! Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie was great with my daughter! He took his time to explain everything and was patient with her. So happy he is her dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing kid & customer service that leaves kids actually WANTING to go to the dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't recommend Dr Howie enough. I have 5 kids who love going to the dentist because of the fun and happy atmosphere he creates (he's hilarious). He is incredibly conservative in his treatment plans, which puts my Mamma's heart at ease. Dr Howie says he treats his patients like he would his own children and I know that's true because I've seen the care with which he's treated my kids for years. I trust him wholeheartedly and am so grateful that we found him when our kids were very little. Dr Howie was originally recommended to me by a friend after I'd brought my kids to another local pediatric dentist that wanted to do several fillings in my very small children's' baby teeth. Dr Howie chose temporary fillings and kept an eye on those teeth until they fell out; way less invasive and a much easier and happier experience for my kids (no novocaine, no drilling), and less $$ too. We've been with Dr Howie ever since and I am so grateful for the care he continues to give my kids. He's honest and always chooses the least invasive treatment for my kids and thoroughly explains all options to me. Dr Howie is the best pediatric dentist around - I can't recommend him highly enough.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is great! Both of my kids see him and I highly recommend. He's very on top of hygenie, sealants and xrays only when needed. And he makes it fun for the kids!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie and his team are amazing. They’re so caring, make my kids feel comfortable, and answer all my questions thoroughly…and because they have such a good experience at the dentist, my kids are enthusiastic about dental hygiene at home now too.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is the most amazing dentist! We had our first visit today with my 2 1/2 year old and had such an enjoyable experience. Dr. Howie is patient, knowledgable and makes the entire visit fun for kids, yet also informative for the parents! We are so excited to have found such an incredible dentist and know we will continue our visits here for many years to come!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie really is the best! Whether it's a tooth extraction or a cleaning- my kids actually look forward to their visits. He's patient, funny and genuinely cares for the kids. Plus all of his staff is amazing + kind too!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie was born to be a pediatric dentist. My son had his 1st appointment and it went extremely well. We couldn't be happier to start going to this practice!

Experiencia fantástica: Love Dr. Howie! Amazing with all 3 of my kids and has early morning appointments which fits our schedule perfectly.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie and his staff are always friendly, communicative, thoughtful and have their patient's wellbeing and comfort top of mind.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is awesome!!

Experiencia fantástica: Another great experience! We’ve been coming to Dr. Howie for years now, and he’s always professional and has great advice. Really relates to the kids and make a potentially not so fun experience a blast! My son definitely takes care of his teeth better because he’s motivated by Dr. Howie. We never feel pressured to purchase anything or to get optional services and the staff is always kind & sweet. Now that my son has braces, Dr. Howie is even more helpful but keeps things light and entertaining-my son loves him! Definitely recommend highly!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is simply the best. My son has been his patient for more than a decade. My son truly hated dentists before Dr. Howie because of so many cavities and extreme sensitivity. Dr. Howie is great at putting patients at ease, and helping them get on a better track with brushing and flossing. These days, my son actually enjoys going to the dentist because Dr. Howie makes visits fun. .

Experiencia fantástica: As always, our visit was amazing. Dr Kotkin and the staff always have a welcoming smile and create a stress-free environment from the second we walk in the door. Our children are actually excited to go to his office. As parents, we are also relieved knowing we can trust them 100% and our children are in the hands of true professionals.

Experiencia fantástica: Doctor Howie always teaches us something new about our dental health when we visit and makes the experience fun. Besides his excellent bedside manner, he also takes great care of my son’s teeth.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is the best! My kids adore him. He makes office visits fun!

Experiencia fantástica: The best pediatric dentist office around!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is an amazing pediatric dentist who has the best bedside manner with kids. Such a wonderful sense of humor and so gentle with my son who is orally defensive. He did the cleanings himself to build trust and it worked. In 15 years my son has never complained about going for a checkup/cleaning. Dr. Howie referred us to an excellent orthodontist (shoutout to Dr. Rothenberg!) who made all three of my kids’ teeth straight and beautiful. I would (and have) refer anyone with kids to Dr. Howie. His staff is wonderful as well (Jane and Denise, you’re awesome ). Highly recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie really is the BEST. My kids love going to the dentist and Toy Town - I am so happy we use his practice.

Experiencia fantástica: Can't say enough about Dr. Howie and the staff. Wonderful people who truly care about their patients. I went to MANY dentists before Dr. Howie and his precise yet conservative care is why I bring my children. At other local practices my children would have multiple cavities each visit. I felt pressured into services on their baby teeth that in hindsight were not necessary. There was a dramatic change with Dr. Howie and I am confident he's providing the best care without a desire to push unnecessary treatments. It's a night and day difference for me. Thrilled to have found such wonderful dental care for my family. You will not be disappointed.

Experiencia fantástica: The visit was quick and efficient. Dr.Howie was kind and calm as my oldest has hard time going to the dentist. In and out within 40 min for a baby tooth extraction.

Experiencia fantástica: Always a great experience! My kids look forward to going every visit! Thank you so much!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing staff - everyone is supportive and really tries to calm a nervous toddler. Love the gift bags and added small toys. Always a pleasure!

Experiencia fantástica: The entire practice is so warm & professional, knowledgeable!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Kotkin is truly wonderful. He helped our 3 year old with a bad dental injury. He stayed close in touch via cell phone and got us a last-minute appointment as first timers. He was incredibly kind, responsive, and generous with his time and expertise.

Experiencia fantástica: We love Dr Howie!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Our daughter had tremendous anxiety before her dental procedure & Dr. Kotkin was AMAZING. He talked her through the procedure & was caring, supportive & professional the entire time. Dr. Kotkin used his wonderful sense of humor to distract our daughter & we knew she was in excellent hands. We also love his receptionist, Judith for always promptly responding & Denise, his hygienist, for her years of expertise. I highly recommend Dr. Kotkin & his team!

Experiencia fantástica: The team at Doctor Howie's office was incredible. They saw both of our children, ages 4 and 7, at the same time. They made sure the children were comfortable, made adjustments when the children expressed discomfort, gave them breaks when breaks were requested, and gave both kids developmentally appropriate education about how to care for their teeth. Both kids left feeling happy and confident.

Experiencia fantástica: Switched our kids over to Dr. Howie and couldn't be happier! They just had their first appointment with him today and are already talking about going back. He explained everything to them so they knew what he was doing, and he was very calming and reassuring. Definitely recommend Dr. Howie and his amazing office!

Experiencia fantástica: We love Dr. Howie. What could be better than a meticulous dentist who loves kids and has the perfect goofy sense of humor to put them at ease. Office staff are first rate as well!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic visit as always. Can't recommend Dr. Howie enough!

Experiencia fantástica: To be a doctor of any sort, you must feel a calling in your life. Dr. Howie is an even rarer find, in that he genuinely cares deeply for the experience of his young patients and takes the time to ensure that experience is as positive as it can be.

Experiencia fantástica: Doctor Howie is awesome. He did amazing work with our special needs daughter with a tooth extraction times 2 he did it all within a 1/2 an hour and had our daughter calm as. Could be in that situation and was very helpful and understanding. I highly recommend Him.

Experiencia fantástica: BEST pediatric dentist! Dr Howie and the staff are incredible. My 4 children are all college age and have been going to this office since they were little. They actually enjoy going to the dentist!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Howie is the absolute best. He is wonderful with children (as are all of his staff) and he is incredibly knowledgable and always available to help - even calling over a weekend when my son knocked his two front teeth and checking in multiple times. My boys love going to the dentist bc of Dr Howie and always want a good tooth report from him which is great motivation for brushing!! Highly recommend.
