Betsy G.
Dr. Larkin is wonderful. He is great with the kids and the parents. And all of the staff is super friendly and make the process as easy as they can. It's a fun environment for something that is just naturally not fun at all.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your feedback! Our team is dedicated to fostering a supportive and professional atmosphere, and it's rewarding to know that our efforts are recognized.
Jenna P.
The ladies at Otto were all so nice, it felt like I was talking to old friends more than doctors! I felt so welcomed!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Jenna! It’s fantastic to hear that our team made you feel so comfortable and welcomed. We look forward to seeing you again at Otto Orthodontics!
Michael L.
I was told that going with Invisalign would be a better option and more cost effective. Upon receipt of the estimate, it was the same as a more complicated case of braces for another family about 14 months prior. I feel that the information was misleading. My original post did not reflect the true comparison of the cost between the two treatment plans. After further review I realized now that the cost of Invisalign is a more cost-effective option. Thanks, Otto, for helping me to understand the treatment options, cost, and for our family's current treatment.
Response from the owner:We truly appreciate you leaving this review! Our team strives every day to make our office a place where patients feel welcomed and well taken care of.
Michelle
I had a good experience, the staff was very friendly and the consult was pretty informative. The place was clean and inviting.
Justin Short S.
Dr. Otto and her team are the best. I’m a retired general dentist and had many options of where to take my child. I chose Otto for a reason. Besides clinical expertise they are very efficient and do not waste your time sitting around the office waiting.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your feedback! Our team is dedicated to providing a welcoming and professional atmosphere for everyone. We are pleased to hear that our efforts are making a positive impact.
Sarah A.
Wonderful team and doctor. Great experience. Staff is super friendly. Highly recommend. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your positive feedback! We're thrilled to hear you had a great experience with us. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we look forward to serving you again in the future.

Jeanna was the best, she explained everything so well, Dr. Otto is the goat & I am so excited to get started with my Invisalign!
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your feedback! The team is dedicated to providing a respectful and professional environment, and it's rewarding to know that this resonates with our community.

We love Dr. Otto and everyone at Otto Orthodontics!!! They are the absolute BEST! My kids always look forward to their appointments 😊
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words! We're committed to making every visit a positive one, and it's great to hear that reflected in your experience.
Krisitna G.
I am 51 wanting Invisalign to correct a few of my teeth that have been bothering me and they were very sweet and professional. Everyone I met treated me with respect and kindness. I am excited to get my teeth/bite corrected.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Kristina. Respect and kindness for every person who walks in is what we stand for, and we are excited for you.
Lindsay R.
My daughter has her first appointment yesterday and has the most positive experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and gave us all of the information to make getting braces the smoothest process. We feel very informed and prepared should anything go wrong. Our family is very pleased.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Lindsay! We're thrilled to hear that your daughter had a positive experience with our team. We look forward to supporting your family throughout the orthodontic journey!
Amanda C.
We went yesterday for our initial exam. They were unbelievably friendly. The kindness that every technician offered was a blessing. They explained everything and worked with us to walk through the whole process for braces and all the options. Even my son stated how kind and friendly everyone was. He was hesitant to get braces but now he's not. We will be continuing our journey with them and my son couldn't be happier.
Response from the owner:Amanda, what a kind thing to say, thank you! Friendliness and clear explanations from every member of our team are what we hope everyone feels, and we are glad that came through.
Johanaliz R.
I had a great experience at Otto Orthodontics! Everyone was very professional, friendly, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Getting my braces was much easier and more comfortable than I expected. I’m very happy with the care I received and would definitely recommend them!
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your feedback! Our team is dedicated to providing a welcoming and professional atmosphere for everyone. We are glad to hear our efforts make a positive difference.

New to the area and our first visit and we were very impressed. Everyone was very nice, explained in detail the process and what to expect. Highly recommend them to anyone.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that your first visit was a positive experience. Our team is dedicated to providing clear guidance and support. We appreciate your recommendation!

We had a great experience at Otto Ortho in Fenton! Dr. Karkow and staff (Katelynn) worked with us and were patient and knowledgeable. Very personable staff, would highly recommend to anyone!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Comments like this remind us why we love what we do — helping patients feel comfortable and confident throughout their journey with us.
Kasey F.
We love Otto! Nicole has been working with my son Leo and she has been exceptional. Dr. Larkin is amazing, as well. Nicole lets my daughter, Rowan, be her little assistant and now she wants to be an Orthodontist when she grows up because of her. My kids always have a good time 😊
