Edwin J Sims, DDS

Great dentist – very friendly, gentle, concerned about his patients, takes a lot of time to inform and explain, willing to work in urgent problems on very short notice – same day if necessary. I have been with Dr. Sims and Dr. Lawrence, his predecessor, for 38 years. My wife is a patient and my sons were while they lived in Sacramento. Great for all ages.

Dr. Sims and his team have to be the best dentist office in all of Sacramento. I have been to several other dentist before coming here and none have even compared to how well I was treated at this office. Dr. Sims is amazing at what he does, he explains everything in detail and goes over all the different options you have. He educates you about oral health… Some things I never even knew. He’s very personable and takes the time to really get to know you. He makes sure you’re comfortable… for people who have dental anxiety, (like me) being comfortable and feeling NO PAIN is all that matters! His office staff are all very friendly and nice. If you are worried about the downtown location and having to hassle with the parking meters? Don’t be. They will have somebody check on your car if you’re there longer than an hour. Oh, and if you run out of quarters they always have them at the front desk! Pretty amazing right? LOVE DR. SIMS

I’ve been going to Dr. Sims now for close to three years now (maybe longer) and it is always a wonderful experience. As wonderful as the dentist can be, right?
You’re never kept waiting, they always have change for the meters and everyone is super friendly! When I first switched to Dr. Sims I actually saw his wife as my hygienist, but now that she’s semi-​retired I see Cynthia and she’s just as sweet. :) We always manage to catch up, but without that awkward — your hand is in my mouth situation.
When it’s time to see Dr. Sims I’m never kept waiting, maybe 5 minutes tops. Not at all like my last dentist and he’s quite thorough. Explaining the whole time what he’s doing and what he’s looking for. And they’re never too harsh with me about my poor flossing habits, which I appreciate!
If you’re looking for the best experience you can get at the dentist then you should definitely make an appointment at Dr. Sims office!

It’s no secret the idea of going to the dentist is, well, awful… apparently, Dr. Sims and his team know this because they make it enjoyable as possible! The entire team is incredibly kind, helpful and even funny! Dr. Sims calls you after you’ve had a big appointment to make sure you are feeling okay (how nice is that?!?). This dentist comes HIGHLY recommended. I’m not certain he is taking new clients, but if I were you, I’d get on the waitlist.
