This one is the easiest question to answer. If you watch any of the videos on my website you can see I am so grateful to be in a profession that provides such a life changing service to so many kids and adults. We transform a patient’s smile but that does so much more for them. It is so rewarding to watch a shy, unconfident kid just come out of their shell, start talking and smiling more and just being more confident once their teeth start getting straighter. I have an opportunity to connect with so many kids (and adults) and not only build a relationship with them but influence them in a positive way.
I am part of the cleft palate and craniofacial clinic and many of these patients have been through so much. They have very complex dental and orthodontic needs and it can be very challenging technically but also emotionally. Watching them positively change physically and emotionally is one of the most rewarding things we do at my office.

I would consider myself a true Hometown orthodontist in Pensacola. I was born in Pensacola and lived in Gulf Breeze until I left for college. I had the opportunity to fulfill my dream of practicing orthodontics in Pensacola when Dr. Trawick entrusted me with the responsibility of his 40-year-old practice. I am honored to provide orthodontics to many of the grandchildren of his former patients. The location is conveniently located for anyone living in Pensacola. It is also a top orthodontics practice for those living in Pace, Milton, Cantonment, and Perdido with a maximum of 15 minute drive. Our office is right off I-110 and next door to Barnes and Nobles and Sam’s Club.
Fun Fact: We also occasionally have patients fly in for treatment if they have moved as the office is only five minutes from the Pensacola International Airport. Dr. Sims loves to fish, so if you do please share your best fishing stories!
For the longer morning appointments many parents drop their kids off and go to Sam’s Club to do some bulk shopping. Read this page in Spanish here – Ortodóncista de Pensacola, Florida
Looking for a straighter smile but can’t bear the thought of wearing traditional metal braces? Invisalign may be a good option for you. The Invisalign aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing! Plus, Dr. Sims is a board-certified Invisalign Premier Provider, which means he has achieved a significant level of experience in treating patients with the Invisalign system.

The most common age for braces is between 11-years-old and 15-years-old. This is usually the perfect time for treatment because children at this age are growing rapidly, and we can take advantage of these growth spurts to help shape the bite and teeth correctly.
Braces aren’t just for kids anymore! Orthodontic treatment later in life can drastically improve your personal appearance and self-esteem, as well as the health of your teeth and gums. If you are experiencing gum and/or bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of tooth enamel and tooth surfaces, headaches, or jaw (TMJ/TMD) pain, this may be a result of crooked teeth or a bad bite. That’s where we come in!
Two-phase orthodontic treatment is a specialized process that combines tooth straightening and physical facial changes. Sims Orthodontics in Pensacola, Florida uses the two-phase treatment to give children the healthiest, most functional, and most beautiful result, which will remain stable throughout their lives.
For most patients, orthodontic treatment can be provided without any need for surgery. However, in more severe cases, corrective surgical treatment may be the best option to help you achieve the results you want and deserve. If you suffer from jaw bone abnormalities, bite abnormalities, or malocclusion (the abnormal alignment of the upper and lower teeth), Sims Orthodontics can help answer your questions about surgical treatment and refer you to the best surgeon in town.
Getting your braces taken off is cause for celebration, and all of us at Sims Orthodontics certainly commend you for reaching this important milestone in your orthodontic treatment! However, orthodontic treatment does not end when the braces are removed. At this point, you begin the retention stage of your treatment, and your final orthodontic result will depend on your retainers.
Sims Orthodontics has been such a pleasant experience for me. The staff has always been kind and courteous, and genuinely interested in any problems I'm encountering. Wouldn't go anywhere else!
Sims orthodontics is the best! Love Dr. Sims and the Staff! They are always so efficient, friendly and caring!
They are amazing!! They have gone above and beyond for my son. The staff is great and the Dr is very personable, and addressed all my questions.
Wonderful staff and doctor. My son has health issues and they have gone above and beyond to help him and soothe his fears. Festina, Brittany, and Nicole were fantastic in helping him and taking the time he needed to get his appointment done.
Sims Orthodontics was a great experience. They made me feel welcome by writing all the patients names on a board welcoming them (it's the little things). Dr. Sims and his staff was extremely professional, but also do a great job at being nice and happy. Dr. Sims helped me out (a new patient) just as he would have for life long patients. Although my braces are off and there, realistically, isn't a huge chance of me needing to get further work done, I highly recommend Dr. Sims to anyone needing a clean (office), happy, professional and punctual Orthodontist.
Friendly staff and excellent service!
Fantastic service!! I had such an amazing first time visit! I would recommend this office to EVERYONE!!!!!
I highly recommend. They are all consistently professional and friendly.
1-5-15 I am a current client and I absolutely LOVE these people. They are totally up-to-date on everything, they are great about keep clients informed and they've all encouraged me through the battle with my teeth. Plus the staff seems to maintain their smiles too (it's a happy place with some pretty teeth). My last visit with Lisa was most pleasant; I was able to request info and look at the x-rays and everything. She was great. I must add that having braces as a teacher makes it difficult to schedule appointments but the staff always try hard to find me an after-school appt. time and they even see patients on most holidays. I cannot boast enough about this company. 6 stars from me!
Dr. Sims and his staff are amazing! Both of my children have received treatment and have had wonderful experiences. Thank you for your patience, kindness and individual care!
Dr. Sims and his staff are amazing I just wanted to say that they are prompt, thorough and kind. I am almost sad I got my braces off because I looked forward to seeing them every eight weeks! I got braces as an adult because I had big gaps in my teeth . I disliked them to the point of deleting photos of myself because some of my photos appeared that I was missing teeth and now I love my smile!! You see confidence when you look at me now.. Thanks to all of Sims Orthodontist staff you are the best!! Especially you Brandy!!!
Dr. Sims has treated all three of my children. We have always been so happy with the warm and knowledgable staff. The office is modern, clean and comfortable.
Today I had Mrs. Lisa, she was very kind and gentle. The whole Brace team is very nice and gentle. Love going to the Orthodontics. So glad they are here in Crestview.
My daughter loves Dr Sims and all of his staff! As a mother I appreciate the professionalism of the staff and the fact that Dr Sims gives back his talent in the mission field.
The staff is super nice and helpful! My son is very happy with his braces.

I love the open and friendly atmosphere at Sims Orthodontics. All of the employees greet us with a smile and coordinate their outfit colors. Everyone there seems to treat one another with respect and it seems like a nice place to work. When customers come in and employees truly seem to love their job, it makes customer happy :) I also like the open atmosphere and feel comfortable enough to ask questions.

First time with Sims ortho.I was actually recommended by a friend an I must say,so far,everyone is very nice and friendly.I look forward to continued working with Sims.
Dr. Sims and his staff were very professional and courteous throughout the entire process. I was very impressed by how much care and detail they take with each and every client.
Wonderful experience! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. They took the time to answer all questions and made my boys feel comfortable. They explained the process as they were putting the braces on. I highly recommend them.
Great place to go for your braces! Staff is amazing and Dr. Sims is the best. This is the place to go. Timely appointments and ALWAYS friendly!
I recently started my invisalign treatment here and am very happy with the office I chose to get me through my journey. I was shopping around at a few different orthodontic offices, but sims really stood out to me at my consult. Every member of the staff is very friendly and can easily answer any questions I may have. The lady that handles the financial end was so friendly, and the contract/pricing was very clear to me as she explained everything. I recently had a problem with chewing because of one of my 'buttons', which would not let me fully close my mouth. The office was quick to get me in to fix that. I love how Dr. Sims is so meticulous with his work, he will make my teeth as straight and cosmetically correct as can be. That really says alot about the passion and pride that goes into his work. If you're looking into getting any orthodontic work done, I highly recommend Sims!
They have welcome us and make us feel so comfortable. I love the ladies and dr Sims. They all have patience and work with me and help me understand what’s going on with my daughter since I’m deaf! I highly recommended this dentist!
