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.

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!
Sims Orthodontics is the best! I bring my granddaughter here and they treat her like family. We are very pleased with Dr. Sims and his staff! Lisa is awesome! She is so professional and friendly. Dr. Sims always had a smile for everyone.
I highly recommend Dr. Sims and his team! They are all very professional and take the time to explain each procedure all along the way. My kids always look forward to their appointments.
Such a great experience!! So patient, kind, and great at explaining everything.
Staff is friendly and very helpful. They always got me in quickly and on the days/ times that worked best for me. Dr. Sims is great and always went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with my results prior to me moving overseas. Love the look of my new straight teeth.
Dr. Sims and his staff are extremely personable and professional. They are so nice and concerned about my wife‘s and son’s care.
Great experience from consultation to…almost retainer for my college student. The text reminders are very appreciated by this mom. New braces for a younger sibling happening soon. Thank you Dr. Sims and the entire team!
Excellent experience with Sims Orthodontics... I do believe staff is what makes an office...they are all very welcoming, friendly and flexible with my busy work schedule. Dr. Sims has great work ethics and is very particular (which is a great way to be when you want a perfect smile). I highly recommend this office and orthodontist to anyone looking for ortho needs.
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.
Best place to get invisalign! Very easy process. Everyone is so kind, and the office has a very welcoming environment! I feel comfortable every single time I come in.
Dr. Sims and his staff are amazing! My youngest had major dental fears. Dr. Sims and Lisa have worked with her and she actually loves coming to the orthodontist now! I would never even think of going to anyone else! Both of my children are on their way to beautiful smiles!
My daughter, Peyton had a great experience when she had braces and my son is now in the midst of his treatment. It’s always a cheerful place and they are fast and efficient. Dr. Sims genuinely loves his job and I’d say all the staff her hires shares his passion. You’re not a number here. It’s been great.
Both of our children have been seen here (one got braces one is waiting until they are a bit older) and so far we’ve had nothing but a wonderful experience. The kids aren’t scared of the doc, his staff is friendly, and the facilities are clean and inviting. Thankful that our regular dentist suggested us to use this orthodontist.
My family has been coming here for over 3 years. One of the best decisions for our children's health has been choosing Dr. Sims for our orthodontist. Through every stage of our treatment plan, my children and myself have been treated with kindness, patience and feeling like we are special. Dr. Sims has never rushed any aspect of our care, he truly wants what is best for the individual patient. Every time we come in for care, you never have the sense of being rushed or overlooked. The staff are exceptional!! My one child has been very anxious over her care and the staff has lovingly embraced her and has proceeded at her pace. It is a genuine family atmosphere. Everyone can participate in someway. My kids love the hot drink area, the game section and the incredible fish tank!! Most of all though, Dr. Sims is the heart of the operation. He is gifted with his dental and people skills. He always has a smile for everyone and takes all the time needed to either answer questions, reassure a patient or just be present. I have 3 children right now under Dr. Sim's care and I know that their dental needs will all be taken care of. The whole family thinks Dr. Sims is one super cool Orthodontist. Thank Sims Orthodontics for being such an exceptional office, each of you are worthy of recognition!
Great experience at B & C for both our daughters ages 13 and 11. One is almost done with her treatment. For the past year and a half, the staff has been very caring and professional. We definitely will recommend them. - Cisneros Family
This place is amazing. Lisa made time to come in after hours to repair my daughters braces to keep her from suffering throughout the weekend.
My son has been a patient of Sims Orthodontics for a little while now and we all love the care he is showed by all of the staff! My child got his brackets today and went in nervous but all of the staff made sure he felt comfortable each and every step of the way. I highly recommend Dr. Sims and the amazing staff he has! All of my children will be patients of his when the time comes!
Amazing experience! Always gets me back earlier than the appointment time. Sends reminding emails. Willing to work with me on everything. LOVE them
We have 2 children being treated currently here. We love this office Dr. Sims is great about explaining everything, and working with military families. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Both children feel very comfortable with their care, space maintainers, and braces. The office is also easy to book appointments with and great about sending emails or text message reminders, which I love getting.
Sims orthodontics has a great focus on patient care and satisfaction. Dr. Sims and the entire team work tirelessly to ensure each patient is nothing but satisfied and leaves with a brilliant smile on their face!
Three of our four daughters have been well taken care of by Drs. Trawick and Sims over the years. The doctors and staff are friendly and professional. Highly recommend! :)
Fantastic service!! I had such an amazing first time visit! I would recommend this office to EVERYONE!!!!!
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!
I recently completed my treatment plan at Sims Orthodontics, and I can’t express enough how fantastic my experience was. Dr. Sims and his staff were absolutely fabulous. At 59 I didn’t expect that fixing my teeth would make such a significant difference and how I feel about myself, but it truly has. From the moment I walked in, the team made me feel welcomed and comfortable. They were professional, attentive, and genuinely cared about my needs and concerns. Dr. Sims is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, and he took the time to explain every step of the process, which put me at ease. The office environment is modern, clean, and inviting. The staff is friendly and always ready to help, ensuring that every visit is a pleasant experience. I am thrilled with the results of my treatment and grateful for the excellent care I received. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sims Orthodontics to anyone in need of orthodontic care. Whether you’re young or, like me, a bit older, Dr. Sims and his team will provide you with top-notch service and outstanding results. Thank you, Sims Orthodontics , for giving me the smile I am proud of!
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!
My daughters have been here multiple times and they have been incredibly patient with both and done everything they can to ease their fear and make sure they were as comfortable as possible during their procedures. Definitely recommend.
