"I’ve been going to Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics for three years. The doctors and staff are always very friendly and upbeat. They really put you at ease! I have been receiving services to straighten my teeth with plastic aligners. The doctors have tried every means possible to help me receive the best outcome. I really appreciate their efforts and feel that I am in excellent hands!"

"I recently completed 14 months of Invisalign treatment with Mattingly and Howell Orthodontics, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. Scheduling appointments was always easy, and the Smile Doctor app made it incredibly convenient to do my weekly scans without having to visit the office. They were always quick to respond to any questions I had.Dr. Chris Mattingly was amazing, always answering my questions with a smile. The staff was consistently kind and easy to get along with. Thanks to their excellent care, my teeth are straight, and my smile is better than ever. I highly recommend Mattingly and Howell Orthodontics for anyone considering Invisalign!"

"Finally decided to straighten my smile and was referred to Mattingly and Howell Orthodontics. Dr Chris and the staff were so warm and nice. The process was explained well and no pressure applied either way. I used Invisalign. The process of wearing retainers has its challenges but the process of assessing progress and communication with the office was easy and smooth. I just finished my Invisalign after about 6 months and I’m extremely pleased. The entire staff was fantastic, the office very comfortable and I would recommend them to anyone at any age who wants a beautiful smile!"

"My rating is 100 stars! I can't stop smiling! I'm 72yo & had never had braces. In my late 60's my top front teeth gradually began shifting over top of one another and were crooked. I began smiling with my mouth closed because I was embarrassed about my teeth. I believed I was too old for orthodontics and additionally, thought it was vain to spend the money for treatment at my age. Fortunately, I responded to an ad about discounts from Mattingly & Howell. I was warmly invited to come into the office for a consult. I'll omit the details of the consult for brevity, but Dr Howell developed a treatment plan for my teeth for Invisaligns. His plan was for 20 weeks and was affordable to my budget. I'm so happy with the results that I truly can't stop smiling! My family and friends are amazed by my results! Regarding my experience, every office person, from front desk staff, technicians, and Dr Howell, was exceptionally professional & kind. They were patient & thorough in instructing me on how to use the Invisaligns and ensured I practiced before I left the office. At each visit they were attentive to my comfort and understanding of what they were doing. It was an environment in which I felt relaxed and able to engage in friendly conversation with everyone. The office is well-organized and managed & I was always seen at my scheduled appointment time. The office environment is appealing, spacious, and clean. Parking is easy. Folks, Mattingly & Howell is the office to go to for orthodontic treatment. My experience and results were incredible!"

"I am very pleased with my child's experience at Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics. During phase one, the team effectively addressed her overcrowding issue with a clear plan and excellent communication. The impressive technology and before-and-after pictures are great, but the real highlight is the professional relationships built with the staff.I am especially grateful for the candid conversations with Dr. Mattingly. The enhanced confidence and improved jawline my child has gained are truly remarkable. The entire team has made this journey a positive one, and I highly recommend Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics for top-notch orthodontic care."

"From start to finish, I’ve appreciated my experience at Mattingly & Howell Ortho. I had pretty miserable orthodontics experiences in middle and high school and came back as an adult to fix some insecurities I have with my smile. They’ve helped me understand my options, explained every step of the process, always make appointments quick and easy but not rushed. They followed up to check on me the day after I got my Invisalign put in just to be sure I was adjusting well. I’ve appreciated them so much and would highly recommend them!"

"10/10 would recommend, my consultation with Dr. Howell & Alexis, the treatment coordinator was informative, honest and exciting. From there, I had an appointment today to get braces and the experience was the BEST! Cassie, the dental assistant was super sweet and really took care of me. Dr. Chris was efficient and very careful with the process of my treatment. Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics is the best ortho office in Louisville, hands down!"

"I was told I needed to get braces or invisalign by my dentist then referred here because my brother comes here for braces. I, on the other hand, chose to get invisalign and was told that I would use them for over a year. I just got them taken off and I could not be happier. They made this long process so smooth with their use of technology and wonderful communication with clients. I will always refer family and friends to Mattingly and Howell Orthodontics."

"Biggest shout out ever to Mattingly and Howell Orthodontics!!! They have became close friends over the past couple of years and I honestly looked forward to every appointment! Truly was the best experience a patient could ever have! Chick-fil-A has customer service competition with this place! I use to worry about laughing too hard or smiling to big because of my teeth but Mattingly and Howell gave me the confidence to enjoy the moments and smile as big and laugh as hard as I want! Thank you all for everything! For a gorgeous smile for my self and Kenzie! I’m gonna miss seeing you all on a regular!"

"There was never a day that I went in and wasn’t greeted with a smile and a warm welcome. Everyone called me by my name as if they knew me my entire life and just made me feel like I was a part of their family. They are all professional and all so nice. The appointment times are flexible and they were always able to get me in very quick for my next appointments. Not only are they flexible but the appointments are quick. They will spend as much time as I needed to answer all my questions but when it came down to them working on my teeth, they were very fast and efficient. They work like a well oiled machine and because of this, there is almost never a wait to be seen on time which is very hard to find these days. I highly recommend Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics to everyone!"

"The most talented, professional, accommodating, efficient, effective, passionate orthodontists and staff! I would HIGHLY recommend them, and them only to ANYONE needing orthodontic care. I had braces and orthodontic treatment as a child and then again as an adult. I also had a very complicated case. They really are all about smiles from the first time you walk in any of their practices to the celebratory, milestone day you get your braces off. They absolutely make anyone from a young child to a seasoned adult feel right and home and completely confident that they are with you 100% and they will see you through to your goals. I actually miss going in there to see all the people from the receptionists to the assistants to the doctors. CHOOSE MATTINGLY & HOWELL. They do amazing work and make it a wonderful experience. Love these people :)"

"I finished my two years of braces in December 2011 and the results have been wonderful. I was a little nervous getting braces at first since I was 34 at the time but knew I wanted to get my under bite corrected and braces were recommended by my dentist. From my first consultation until the time I got my braces off, both Dr. Mattingly and Dr. Howell and the staff were nothing less than amazing. Each visit to the office I always received a warm welcome and they made the experience as pleasant as possible. I followed the doctor's orders about what not to each, about flossing, and keeping up with regular dental care. I had pictures taken before I got the braces on and when I got them off and I was amazed with the results. I wear my retainer every night and still have the same wonderful smile I did when I got my braces off (I have received lots of compliments on my smile). I would definitely recommend Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics to anyone looking to improve their smile!"

"With 4 kids in braces, we have spent some time at Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics over the past few years! Everyone was friendly and polite, every single visit. One of the best things was that the wait was never very long. They are very good about getting patients in for their appointments very quickly. And now, our kids have beautiful, straight teeth. I would highly recommend this practice! Sheila Mays"

"Mattingly & Howell Orthodontics Psc has provided orthodontic care for two of my four sons. I could not be more pleased with our experiences. My second son expects to have his braces removed in just a few months, and my third son just had his braces placed on his teeth. Every person we have encountered has gone above and beyond to ensure that our experiences are as pleasant as possible. Drs. Mattingly and Howell are always fun for my kids to "visit." I would absolutely recommend this practice to any friend or family member in need of orthodontic care. Luckily my oldest son did not need braces but if it is determined that my youngest son requires them, we will definitely continue being treated by this wonderful group of healthcare practitioners."
