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.
My visits are always efficient which I appreciate. The staff is very kind and Dr. Sims takes the time to make sure you are leaving with the smile you want. Have loved my experience after a few attempts with other offices.
Put three kids through braces there. My last one just got his off. They have been great to us for the last 5 years. Highly recommend!
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.
Awesome staff!! Always a friendly and great experience .
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Sims and his wonderful staff. I was a little anxious about having orthodontics, but they quickly eased my worries. Dr. Sims and his staff were very helpful in explaining the procedure and helping me decide what would be best for my needs. The office was laid back and inviting with a fun atmosphere. I look forward to future visits with Dr. Sims' office.
Dr. Sims Orthodontist is a great place to go for all your orthodontist needs. I was taking my son to see Dr. Bayer for about 8 years and now Dr Sims for the past 2 years. The staff is very friendly, full of smiles, and the facility is always clean and organized. The staff all work well together and make you feel very comfortable. Mrs. Lisa put on the braces 7 years ago and then also the second set 3 years ago. Mrs Lisa is so awesome. My son was very nervous about the procedure and Mrs. Lisa kept him smiling and laughing throughout both procedures. Dr Sims is very knowledgeable and super sweet and very patient . I highly recommend Dr. Sims Orthodontist to anyone. Thanks Dr. Sims, and staff, especially Mrs. Lisa for making my boys feel confident about their smile.
I just got my expander out ms Amanda was great every time i wanted to stop she let me I love this place this is the best orthodontist place ever
The staff is always very friendly and helpful. He is never in a rush when doing his job. Would definitely recommend them!!
Friendly staff and excellent service!
I've absolutely loved working with Dr. Sims and his team. After having braces for 4 years with a different company with still no avail, Dr. Sims has given me results to a smile I want in such a short amount of time. So professionals and staff is always friendly with open arms
Office is amazing
Dr. Simms and staff are always available and very friendly. Both of my kids have had wonderful experiences with getting braces.
Awesome time there. The person who attended me had soft, gentle, and caring hands. Doctor Sims is so awesome.
Every one is extremely nice and helpful! I would definitely recommend for anyone who needs orthodontic care
Dr Sims and his entire staff are so great to work with! Everybody is always friendly and if you have to wait there is plenty of stuff to do for the kids in the wait room.
As an adult I debated getting braces again . I had them as a teenager and life happened so I never finished the work I needed to do. But I decided I was going to get them again and I am so glad I did. Dr. Sims is wonderful and his staff is awesome too. Everything is moving along with my braces and it is really coming together now. So if you are debating getting them like I was .... get them it has been well worth it . I am so glad that I did and I really can't reccomend Dr.Sims enough he has made it a great experience for someone who wasn't sure if she wanted to go through braces again as an adult.
Went to a consultation for Invisalign, and Dr. Sims was extremely informative and all the staff was nice! I went with Dr. Sims for my Invisalign treatment and I’m super excited about what my results will be. I definitely recommend Dr. Sims and his team!
Everyone is very nice and makes sure that you have the best experience you can. Mrs. Lisa has been fabulous with me so far!
Awesome people!!
Dr. Sims and Staff are awesome! highly recommended! They know what they are doing! We are very very happy and satisfied of our daughter’s result. Professional and Friendly atmosphere. Dr. Sims and the Staff thank you for taking care of our daughter. Her confidence definitely boosted up! #1 best Orthodontist in Crestview, Fl!
GREAT STAFF to many names, wonderful service, they are always willing to work with any issues. Everytime I go in the staff are always smiling and saying hello. Dr. Sims has been great in staying involved in everyone of my children care. Thank you!!!
Wonderful time there! They were very careful not to hurt me and were constantly asking if everything felt right!
My daughter’s experience here has been great from day one. They explain everything to you in detail and that happens at every appointment. My daughter loves the staff and Dr Sim and always feels so comfortable
Amazing place Keegan loves his braces
Sims orthodontics is the best. I have had nothing but great experiences with this office. I saw ms Lisa at my last visit and she made me feel so cared for! My teeth are looking so good and I get my braces off next appointment can’t wait to see the finished product!
Warm, friendly, and welcoming atmosphere. They were very accommodating with our comfort and all our orthodontic concerns. Dr. Sims and and our tech, Ms. Lisa, gave our teen a 5 Star treatment on his first visit...looking forward to the next one.
Just had our braces appointment with dr sims!! His staff is so helpful and wonderful and dr sims is the best!! I’m excited about our outcome when we’re finished with this journey !!!
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.
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!
Such a great experience!! So patient, kind, and great at explaining everything.
