Meet Our Doctors

Growing up, I always had a passion for science and medicine as well as strong creative interests in design and aesthetics. Orthodontics is the perfect field for me because I not only create functional, healthy smiles but also beautiful smiles that help balance facial aesthetics.

I love orthodontics. It’s a science and an art, and I’m proud to be in this field. I also have specialized training in orthodontic care for patients with cleft lip and palate and special healthcare needs, and it’s some of the most meaningful work I do.

Since dental school, Dr. Larkin has always been very involved in the efforts of organized dentistry. He feels this involvement is necessary to protect the integrity of the profession to ensure positive patient outcomes. Dr. Larkin practices with this same fervor in helping his patients achieve a smile that portrays confidence and beauty throughout their lives.

I truly believe that everything happens for a reason and my journey into the orthodontic profession is no different. I fell in love with the field after my first orthodontic visit at the age of 9 and found my passion for transforming smiles and making a positive impact on my patients’ lives.

It is a privilege to join the team at Otto Orthodontics and to continue serving the St. Louis community. I am committed to providing personalized, evidence-based treatment that transforms smiles and changes lives.
