WHAT IS THE MOST REWARDING PART ABOUT BEING AN ORTHODONTIST?

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…

  • Crowding on the lower teeth
  • Relapse due to not wearing retainer as a kid
  • Crooked teeth in the front
  • Buck teeth
  • Gapped front teeth
  • Confidence when smiling
  • Their smile with Invisalign or clear braces.

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

Here are some highlights of treatments available at our office.

Invisalign

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.

Adolescent Treatment

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.

Adult Treatment

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 Treatment

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.

Surgical Orthodontics

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.

Retention

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.

I got my braces off today after 3 years, and I am SO happy. I’m really glad I chose Dr. Sims! I remember he was not trying to sell me on anything during our consultation - he just gave me the info and wanted me to pick the option that made me happy. He’s a perfectionist, and I admire that. He also has the kindest staff. Every visit was welcoming and pleasant. The best in Pensacola. THANK YOU!

This is one of the best dental offices I have ever been to. The staff is super friendly and treat me as though I have known them for years. They schedule my appointments around my work schedule. I work for a dental office that refers patients to Bayer and Curtis Orthodontics on a daily basis and am constantly raving about how great this office is to their future patients. Everyone I have ever talked to who has been seen there has had nothing but great things to say. I definitely recommend them for your orthodontic needs.

My daughter and I had a wonderful experience during her apt of FULL braces and Herbst appliance. I think that I was more nervous than she was! I was able to take pictures as well as stand right beside her while the braces were being put on. She was comfortable and laughing/smiling the whole time during the apt. Katie, the hygentists, was amazing with my daughter! She kept the mood light and did a wonderful job putting the braces on my daughter. The over all experience was a remarkable one!

- Sophie Richards

I'm 21, had braces and full orthodontic treatment then I got them off at 16. I lost my retainers, got relapse and as a result have a slight over bite (probably a class 1)plus other teeth have shifted. I came in for a consultation, and although the doctor agreed my case wasn't severe by any means he still insisted it would take me 1 year of Invisalign or braces and 5141k to align my bite. (Even though braces are still cheaper Invisalign he said they were going to cost me the same.) Now, I'm not an orthodontist but believe me when I say I did my research before coming there and the cost of Invisalign is 3-8k depending on how bad your teeth are. I'm nowhere near a 6 or 8k job, probably 3k. Bottom line is, if you don't want to get ripped off shop around and see several different orthos. Ended up working with one who is only charging me 800$ and 6 months for treatment , so please keep this in mind if you're on the fence about getting your teeth aligned. It was very frustrating to go there and be lied to. Also, they threatened to sue me over making a negative review online.

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!
