Stephanie K.
What a great experience! From the initial visit and them explaining the plan and then to my placement was amazing! Nichole was awesome she explained step by step what the process was and I was in and out within an hour on my lunch break!! Looking forward to the end results!!
Madeleine D.
Absolutely loved going here! My before and after is amazing! The whole staff is very sweet and guided me through the whole process perfectly!
Jessica J.
We visited Otto Orthodontics for a second opinion for my daughter’s need for braces. Not only were the staff warm and welcoming, they were able to significantly beat pricing from another office where our first consult was held. We look forward to working with them in the near future for our daughter’s orthodontic needs.

Otto Orthodontics and its staff have been great. Dr. Carly is the best. I really had no issues the entire time that my daughter had her braces on. Thank you all so much.
Janine L.
Went in for an orthodontic consult and the entire office took my stress away! Everyone was so nice and explained everything!
Jen K.
I was treated in the Des Peres office for braces. Every part of the 24 month treatment plan has been smooth and efficient. Dr. Otto, Dr. Larkin and the entire staff are top notch and very caring. Everyone seems to enjoy their work life which leads to wonderful patient care. Also my teeth look great! 😁
Ellen M.
Dr.Patterson and her team of assistants are delightfully professional, friendly, and proficient at their “jobs”. It’s a happy place to come!
Becky D.
I took my daughter to 2 other orthodontists before choosing Otto. Very happy with our choice!
David F.
Everyone is so nice and they are very efficient. Love Dr. Otto, she's terrific. I am so pleased with the progress they are making with the corrections to my teeth.
Amanda W.
Highly recommend! My main office was the St. Peter’s location but I’ve also been to the Wentzville location. Both locations are clean, spacious and convenient. The staff was always positive and so sweet. They’re more affordable than other places in the area. They have a texting line which is super convenient. They also offer a retainer for life program where you can get a replacement retainer at no extra cost. I took two of my kids somewhere else for their braces and that place was great too but it was pretty pricey. This rating comes from my ortho treatment that I just finished up. When it comes time for our youngest to start his braces treatment, he will be coming here as well.
Missy A.
I had my initial consult with them on Tuesday. Everyone was knowledgeable, kind, and efficient. I will be starting Invisalign with them and I’m so excited!
Sarah K.
Initial placement of both my daughter's upper braces went quick and uneventful this morning! My girls were at ease and the assistants explained everything as they went along. The orthodontist was very kind and personable to me and my daughter's. We were in and out within an hour for both!
Mandy D.
The staff was super friendly and personable. They took time to explain everything to myself and my son. Upfront pricing with no hidden costs, love it!
Linda C.
My son had his first consultation for braces and everyone who assisted in the appointment was great! Everything was clearly explained and we can’t wait to start our braces journey soon!
Mary P.
We have had an excellent experience with this orthodontic office. Two of my sons have received treatment here - one with Invisalign and the other with a more complex, multi-step treatment plan. We have been extremely pleased with both experiences. The doctors and staff are knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and wonderful about explaining each step of the process. We have always felt confident that our boys were receiving skilled and individualized care. I would highly recommend this office to any family looking for an orthodontic team.
