Testimonials

				Bowen Z			

							I had lingual braces followed by a bespoke mouth guard for snoring, both through Dr Chatoo and his excellent team, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the care and results.

I chose lingual braces because I was looking for a discreet way to straighten my teeth. Since the braces are fixed behind the teeth, they were practically invisible, which suited my professional and social life perfectly. There was a short period of adjustment at the start, mainly with speech and some tongue discomfort, but that passed quickly. Once I adapted, they felt natural and easy to manage. The treatment was smooth and the outcome was fantastic: my teeth are now beautifully aligned, and I felt confident throughout the process.

After the braces were off and my alignment was complete, I turned to Dr. Chatoo again for help with snoring. I’d tried an over-the-counter device in the past, but it was uncomfortable and ineffective. The bespoke mouth guard he provided made a world of difference. It was carefully fitted to my bite, and from the very first nights, I noticed a dramatic reduction in my snoring. I’ve been sleeping better, feeling more refreshed in the mornings, and it’s definitely been appreciated by those around me too!

Throughout both treatments, Dr. Chatoo and his team were professional, warm, and attentive. They took the time to explain every step and made sure I felt supported and well-informed from beginning to end.

Thank you so much to Dr. Chatoo and the team, I’m truly grateful for the expert care and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone considering lingual braces or a custom snoring appliance.

							I recently finished my lingual braces treatment at LLOC and couldn’t be happier with the results. I was pretty anxious at first, but Dr. Asif and the team made the whole experience feel really personal and reassuring from day one.

They always took the time to explain things clearly, answered all my (many) questions with patience, and even checked in with me after the braces were first fitted — which meant a lot during those early adjustment days.

The clinic is calm, well-run, and full of genuinely kind people. I always felt listened to and well looked after. And now, I have a smile I’m finally confident in — it’s honestly better than I expected.

Huge thanks to Dr. Asif and everyone at LLOC. I’d 100% recommend them to anyone thinking about treatment.

							I can not recommend this organisation highly enough. Dr Chatoo and his team are professional, friendly, helpful, understanding and have gone above and beyond in their care of me. Manisha is the practice manager and is always 10 steps ahead of you in organising your appointments and care in a warm and helpful manner. Dr Chatoo has done an amazing job on my teeth working alongside an ongoing issue with an implant which has thrown us constant challenges. These have been worked round with care and precision and I could not have asked for more. Do not hesitate to undertake your treatment here. I now can’t stop smiling! Thank you to Dr Chatoo and all his wonderful team.

				Joel McDonald			

							I can't say enough good things about Dr Asif Chatou and the entire team at the LLOC.  He is an outstanding orthodontist with a soothing manner and his staff are friendly and professional. I was so impressed by the excellent job he did on my children’s teeth that I turned to him when I recently needed braces myself. He explained the treatment options very clearly and then shepherded me through the straightening process. The braces are now off and I am very pleased with the results. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a first-rate family orthodontist.

				Jonny Forrest			

							I am currently midway through my treatment (lingual braces) at the London Lingual Orthodontic Clinic (LLOC), and I am thoroughly impressed with the service. The team, led by Dr. Chatoo and supported by Renata, Yana, Manisha, and Taz, is incredibly professional, accommodating, and friendly. The clinic itself is modern and equipped with the latest technology, making every visit a pleasant experience. The changes to my smile that Dr. Chatoo has already engineered are amazing. It's no surprise that LLOC is the go-to clinic for anyone looking for a discreet solution to acquiring a confident smile. I would recommend LLOC without hesitation!

							Dr Chatoo and his team are the best! They make the impossible seem possible

				Michaela Broad			

							I've recently finished my upper and lower braces treatment at The London Lingual Orthodontic Clinic. Dr. Chatoo and the team were fantastic, providing me with an excellent treatment plan, great care, and now aftercare. As an adult getting braces I wanted to go with part lingual (top) rather than all traditional labial braces, and my local orthodontist recommended Dr. Chatoo as the leading UK expert in lingual orthodontics. He didn't disappoint, I love the results!  Big thanks to Manisha and the team too, for being so welcoming and flexible with my appointments when work was hectic.

				Jacob Coates			

							I’ve been seeing Dr Chatoo for more than 8 years for various bits of orthodontic work and follow ups and I can say, hand on heart, he is not only one of the nicest dentists but one of the nicest people you could meet. He and his whole team are so friendly and so knowledgeable and it is always a joy to check back in and see them all again. Could not recommend this clinic more highly.

				Anastasiia Afonina			

							I am very grateful to Dr Chatoo for agreeing to continue my braces treatment after another dentist from another country. It saved me a lot of time, effort and money. Special thanks to the clinic staff for their understanding and kind attitude despite the language barrier. Thank you for being attentive and understanding my fears. Special thanks to Renata for helping me with translation, communicating with the staff and doctors and explaining in detail everything that was happening with my teeth. The professionalism and attentiveness of the clinic team made the treatment process quick, efficient and comfortable.
