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.
Nicole took great care of us. She was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. The entire experience was great and I will recommend Sims Orthodontics to my friends and family.
We took our son to Sims Orthodontist for a consultation for braces today, and it was amazing. The staff was unbelievably friendly, and the atmosphere was so welcoming. The waiting room even had a coffee bar a PlayStation for the kids, and some comfy bean bags to lounge in. Dr. Sims and Nicole were incredible and made us feel right at home. If anyone needs orthodontic care, I highly recommend Sims Orthodontist!
I was out of town on vacation, when my arch wire popped out of place. Thankfully the friendly and inviting staff at Sims were able to accommodate me and fit me right in as if I were there own! In and out with a quick fix! Thank you Sims Orthodontics!
Awesome time there. The person who attended me had soft, gentle, and caring hands. Doctor Sims is so awesome.
Amazing, friendly staff! Very thorough and caring during the whole process! We drive all the way from Pace simply for the best service!
We love Dr Sims and his staff! Our children have been seen there for the last two years and the whole staff is very friendly. Recently we needed to make a last minute change to my daughter's appointment. The staff was very accommodating and was able to help us find an appointment immediately, even though the schedule was filled. We are so grateful for their help, and the amazing rapport they have with our kids. The staff goes out of their way to make everyone feel calm and taken care of. Would recommend this practice to anyone in the area in need of orthodontic care.
I've been going here for only just a couple of months and I've had no problems at all. If I had a problem with my braces they don't mind fixing it and would go out of their way to spend extra time just to make sure I'm comfortable. Fully recommend this place!!
Dr Sims and his staff are amazing!! Best care around!
My 10 year-old son had his first appliance put in about a week ago. I was very impressed with the attention and professionalism of the staff. Everyone was very patient and caring to my son. Each doctor spoke to us, reviewed my son's records as well as gave an exam. I feel very confident in the doctors' abilities and recommendations for my child's health. Highly recommend!
Dr. Sims and his staff are absolutely amazing! I recently moved to the area and was already in braces. I was seen very quickly and my treatment was continued seamlessly. I couldn't believe how easy it was! Dr. Sims and my oral surgeon worked together to determine the best course for me and his staff are always very flexible with scheduling. I have threechildren that will need orthodontics and I will definitely be taking them to Dr. Sims. ***A special thank you to Amanda!
The staff is wonderful. Dr. Sims is awesome. It's a pleasure coming here.
My kids have a wonderful experience every time they visit Dr. Sim. Kid friendly place with courteous and helpful staff. I always leave with a positive feeling that my kids were well taken care of.
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!!!
We moved here in July of 2018 and I found Sims through a google search. They made an appointment for us within weeks of our move and welcomed us warmly. The entire staff is great and Dr. Sims is a Gulf Breeze local and is amazing with his patients. I would recommend Sims to anyone in the Gulf Breeze/Pensacola area!

My daughter, 12 yrs, was really scared but they all were very nice; they explained everything and in fact it was so easy! Besides our appointment was at 2pm and we didn't have to wait. She also got a gift ;)
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.
Office is very clean!! And everyone is very nice and professional. I wish I had my braces done here!!
The staff is super nice and helpful! My son is very happy with his braces.
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 son had his braces on for about a year. Sims orthodontic does an excellent job with informing my son what he needs to do when caring for his teeth with braces. I am very pleased with the services and the up keep of my sons braces.
