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. Learn More About Invisalign.
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.
Front desk is friendly and helpful. Dr. Sims is "very cool" says my 8 year old. We love Ms. Lisa. Smiles all around!

My Son Cameren has been seeing Dr Sims since August 1st 2016. Every visit is just as amazing as the last and we look forward to the next one. Today they got us in on a two hour notice due to an emergency and also took care of his two month commitment. To Amanda, who took care of my son today, thank you. Seeing him smile makes my day and the joy he has when we come see you guys is uplifting. If my daughter needs braces believe me when I say I will go nowhere else.
Awesome orthodontist for Keegan’s braces
Great office and staff! Always a smooth visit!
The whole staff is fabulous. My daughter was so nervous, but they were able to keep her calm and took their time explaining everything to her. She has been able to transition with her appliance with very little discomfort and we are already noticing a difference. Her self esteem and her health has improved. Thank you Sims Orthodontics!
Dr. Sims and his staff are some of the most wonderful people I have ever met! I went to a few different places for consults and I knew as soon as I spoke with Dr. Sims that I had to choose his office! Highly recommend for all ortho needs!

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.
The entire team at Sims is the best! As local business owners, we don’t say that lightly either. Excellence is hard to find these days so we are so thankful to have found it in ortho for our children. It is evident from the very first appointment how Dr. Sims cares for his patients and his team. We received kindness, proper communication, and excellence in care consistently throughout the entire process. We are going back soon to start another child. Would recommend to anyone!!!
