We had an amazing experience at Otto Orthodontics- Wentzville. Their team was professional, knowledgeable and understood our concerns. They are very family friendly and made efforts to ensure my 9 y/o daughter was comfortable. The office was very clean and organized. Extra shoutout to Ashley our treatment coordinator who explained everything extremely well and answered all of our questions. We never felt rushed and we left the office feeling like we had an excellent plan in place. Thank you to the entire team at Otto Orthodontics.

Three of my children have gotten braces with Otto, and I highly recommend them. Scheduling appointments has always been flexible, and the staff is amazing, friendly, and helpful. We've had a wonderful experience and are very happy with the care our family has received.
Kelly L.
We’ve had such a great experience with Otto Orthodontics for my 14-year-old daughter. She’s been a patient since July for phase two of her braces, and the care has been consistently excellent. The entire team is friendly, patient, and makes her feel comfortable at every visit—which is huge for a teenager. They always take the time to explain what they’re doing and what to expect next, so we both feel informed and confident in her treatment plan. Appointments run on time, the office is clean and welcoming, and the results we’re seeing already are amazing. It’s clear they truly care about their patients and the quality of their work. Highly recommend Otto Orthodontics to any family looking for a great orthodontist!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Kelly, for your wonderful feedback! It's fantastic to hear that your daughter feels comfortable and well-informed during her visits. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to continuing her orthodontic journey with us!
Trista K.
Huge Shout out to our FABULOUS Dental Technician, Nichole!! She has this gentle, warm presence that is so friendly and comforting but she is also very knowledgeable!! We are proud clients of OTTO Orthodontics and have been absolutely amazed with the consistency throughout the entire experience. The front desk staff are always very warm and welcoming, and our wonderful dental technician Nichole is absolutely stellar! I am confident that OTTO Orthodontics is well aware how much of a huge asset Nichole is to their team! We have seen her a few times and every time she picks up right where we left off! She makes my 12-year-old daughter feel more than comfortable, and is professional, and also extremely thorough, explaining all steps and any important information that my daughter should know in effort to reach the best possible outcome - she is patient and also is FANTASTIC in providing wonderful suggestions based on my daughters likes! (Huge bonus that she also is actually “in the know” with what is trendy for her age group! 😜😬😍) She is personable and professional, but above all she is absolutely amazing at what she does! Everyone in this office has been WONDERFUL, but we are always hopeful that it is Nichole that we get to visit with again! Love everything about this place; the cleanliness, efficiency, professionalism not to mention the wonderful results we have seen in such a short amount of time! Dr. Larkin really took time to understand what we are trying to achieve and even though we were told that we weren’t ready to begin for a long period of time other places, Dr. Larkin listened, and understood… He did some digging to see how he could help us and came back with a master plan! A master plan that is absolutely proving itself to be effective which speaks to his high level of expertise and also ability to think outside the box. We are SO grateful that we found Otto Orthodontics- and will never go anywhere else! We highly recommend anyone with children especially to check them out because I guarantee you will see the same value, expertise and professionalism! Thank you Nichole, Dr Larkin and all the other amazing staff! 😬
Response from the owner:We appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback on your experience. We work very hard every day to exceed our patients’ expectations!
Samantha M. K.
I sometimes am a little pessimistic of overwhelmingly 5-star reviews, because some practices incentivize them without disclosure, but I have to say - this place and the folks here are pretty great and I have no incentive to say so. No one tried to sell anything to me or push me to make a decision, which is frankly why I left my other provider. The space also doesn’t have the gloomy, archaic setting that dental practices sometimes suffer from, if that matters to you and your kiddos.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear you had a positive experience with our team and enjoyed our welcoming environment. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities. We look forward to seeing you again!
