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.
In Pensacola, Florida our orthodontics staff can assist adults who are seeking to improve…
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.
A good welcoming environment with personable staff.
They were awesome!!! They made us feel right at home. They worked with us on scheduling appointments. They paid attention to detail. They have a neat set up for working on patients. You’re all in one room in a big circle. They have plenty of staff to help out. Dr. Sims has a warm welcoming bedside manner, which we feel is important that made our son feel comfortable there.
We love Dr Sims. My son has been here for 2 procedures because we like him so much. Everyone is so friendly, and it always goes smoothly. I highly recommend them.
I am very happy that we chose SIMS!! The staff is great and they all have a welcoming atmosphere! Highly recommended!!
Fun place, makes definite progress each time he is seen. They are great at explaining what is happening, what is coming up, and what we need to do in between visits.
We absolutely LOVE this office! We are always very pleased with their professionalism and efficiency. They welcomed our teen on the 1st visit and even had a gift bag full of goodies waiting for him to arrive. The doctor is never in a hurry always spending the time to answer our questions and speaks with our teen directly regarding his braces. This is very important to us. We are blessed to have Dr. Sims and his staff in Crestview! Go see him!!
My son goes there and they’ve been great! The staff is always friendly/helpful and they get us in and out in no time! Keep up the great work!
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.

Great orthodontist and awesome staff! I never had to wait long and scheduling was a breeze! Thank you for everything!
Dr. Clay Sims & his staff are amazing! Highly recommend anyone looking for an orthodontist to choose Dr. Sims, you will not be disappointed! At Dr. Sims’ office, you’re not treated like a number. Appointments are never rushed & patient care is their top priority. Every step of the orthodontic process is explained in detail & they’re always available for any questions we may have. We couldn’t be more happy we chose Dr. Sims for our daughter’s orthodontic care.
It’s a very comfortable process working with Sims. I would most definitely recommend my friends to get their braces here. On a side note Amanda is the best. :)
Dr. Sims and his staff are the best. I have an 8 year old that he put braces on. He was very informative and helpful from the start as far as educating us as to the timing of getting the braces put on. He did not try to rush us in any way as far as making a decision. Dr. Sims does excellent work. We have seen a drastic improvement in a very short period of time. You could not ask for a friendlier environment. My 8 year old looks forward to every visit.
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!
We have had an awesome experience with Sims! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Sims has been great taking care of my daughter ‘s teeth.
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.
We have had 2 kids receive braces through Sims orthodontics. They are friendly and understanding about ones needs. They have a wonderful payment plan too. We wouldn't go anywhere else.
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.
Love this practice! They are wonderful! Both my children have had great experiences. They set realistic expectations and are so great with their patients. Highly recommend!!!
