"From start to finish, our experience has been exceptional. The care, attention, and professionalism shown throughout Collin’s orthodontic journey have meant so much to us. His teeth look incredible, but what stands out even more is the genuine relationship built along the way — one rooted in trust, kindness, and consistency. Every visit felt personal, and we always knew we were in the best hands. We couldn’t be more grateful for the team’s dedication and the confidence they’ve helped bring to Collin’s smile."
"My oldest got his braces removed a few years ago. We couldn’t have asked for a better orthodontist. Our experience with Mattingly & Howell and staff was fantastic, and my oldest receives countless compliments on his teeth. Now, we're going through this process with my youngest, and everyone has been wonderful. We truly couldn’t ask for a better orthodontist."
"I can't recommend Mattingly & Howell enough. I'm no longer self conscious when smiling or talking or filming - and have been sharing my experience with many friends. I didn't realize how many friends also were frustrated with how their teeth looked 20+ years AFTER we all had our first set of braces off. A summer in Invisalign and I'm back in business! And have sent several friends in for a consultation!"
"Love them!! Best orthodontist and people around!"

"The Drs. And all the staff are so kind and efficient. My treatments and treatment plans are always discussed. I recommend this practice if you are considering an orthodontist practice"
"We were able to get a consultation appointment very quickly, and my son had his braces on the very next day. The orthodontist even called the next day to check on him."
"Dr. Mattingly evaluated our son recently, and discovered that two of his new teeth were on a trajectory to impact his other teeth. Dr. Mattingly thoroughly explained the situation to us, and provided us a few different options on how we could proceed. We have since started a course-of-treatment, and Dr. Mattingly and his team have gotten us off to a very smooth start. For an expert opinion and great customer-service, I would highly recommend!"

"We’ve been nothing but pleased with this place and would recommend it to anyone looking for an orthodontist."
"I highly recommend Dr Mattingly for Invisalign treatment. I started my treatment at another orthodontist out of state. Before moving to Louisville, my prior orthodontist said I finished my treatment but I was unhappy with the results. Dr. Mattingly assessed my teeth and came up with a new great plan to fix my teeth. Now after finishing my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Mattingly, my smile is perfect and better than I ever thought possible.The Smile Doctors phone app used to scan my teeth every week was very easy to use and quick. During my in person visits, Dr. Mattingly was always very pleasant and personable. I only had 1 visit during my treatment with Dr. Howell, but he was very pleasant as well. The whole team at this location was great.I can’t recommend this place enough and will absolutely be going back here for any future orthodontic needs I have!"
"We loved our experience with Mattingly and Howell. Great results and even better people. We are going to miss seeing our ortho family!!!"
"One of the best orthodontist in Louisville. The staff is friendly and caring, they really care about their patients. You feel in a welcoming environment. Definitely would recommend Mattingly & Howell."
"There are no words to express how grateful I am for Dr. Mattingly. Honestly I had given up hope before I came to this office. After years and years of dental work, 2 previous rounds of braces as a child, Physical therapy for TMJ, mouth guards for sleeping, I was still in pain. Daily headaches and sleepless nights…even a broken tooth. I’ve seen multiple dentist that said surgery was my only route. I was referred to Dr. Mattingly by my new dentist after my other one retired and it might have been the greatest thing that’s ever happened to me. I was told I’d need a miracle and that’s exactly what I was given. Treatment started June 2022, back then I had an open bite, I couldn’t bite through pizza or sandwiches, a piece of lettuce on a sandwich was enemy #1. I had two teeth that touched, the rest were a mess. Flash forward to today, I can eat ANYTHING (is this why I’ve gained weight?) no problem and a smile that I’ve only dreamed about. I should be the poster child for Invisalign. But, all jokes aside, this is the absolute best group of orthodontist and the office staff are so kind. I should add that being able to do scans at home were amazing, so nice not to have to take as much time off work as I was expecting. If you’re an adult and you were questioning getting braces again, please let this be your sign to go for it."
"Everyone is always so friendly. Also, as a busy mom I appreciate how efficiently the office runs. I have kids in multiple sports and they have always managed to work around our schedules. They get us in and out but also make the environment never feel rushed. It’s amazing."
"Mattingly and Howell is the best orthodontist I have been to. They have helped me improve my smile in the best way possible."
"Best orthodontist!"
"I love this orthodontist office, they actually listen to my concerns and give me real results, QUICKLY get me in when needed. LOVE IT HERE!!!!!"
"I’m a transfer from another state and I was a little worried having another orthodontist but I’m so happy and relieved this transfer was smooth. My first appointment was as soon as I wanted. Before I talk about the orthodontists, let’s talk about the staff.. this is probably the most professional, fast, and caring staff I’ve encountered. I bring my 6 year old daughter with me every appointment and the love they all give her is amazing. The orthodontist go above and beyond when it comes to my teeth. It’s an hour and half drive every appointment but I don’t mind making the drive because I absolutely love coming here. The facility is beautiful and the views of the trees is something else. Just amazing. I would recommend anyone coming here. 100/10"
