Dr. Debra Sims, a native of Huntsville, began practicing dentistry here in 1984.  This followed her graduating from Sam Houston State University with honors and graduating from the University of Texas Dental School in San Antonio in the top 10% as a member of Omicron Kappa Upsilon. Inspired by her father to become a dentist (and becoming the first female dentist in Huntsville), she then pursued the goal of achieving an exceptional level of skill in her field. To achieve this high standard, she continued to improve upon her knowledge and skills by staying current with the newest technology and procedures in dentistry through the completion of five Continuums at the Pankey Institute in Florida for Advanced Functional Dentistry, along with accomplishing ongoing continuing education with an emphasis on Full Mouth Reconstruction, Cosmetic Dentistry, and Functional Applications. Dr. Sims is a member of the American Dental Association, Texas Dental Association, and the Brazos Valley District Dental Society, and has been involved in several distinguished organizations and study groups–but above all, she has true compassion for this community and is pleased to offer high-quality dental care to her “neighbors.” Asked why she came back to her hometown to practice, she replied, “Both my husband Kelly and I are multi-generational Huntsville natives. We love this area and wanted to raise our children in a small-town atmosphere, while also having access to the amenities available in nearby cities. I treasure being outdoors, enjoying water activities, and discovering fascinating rocks and crystals. That explains my office décor, bringing the beauty of nature inside. I believe it helps to create a calm, soothing, and beautiful atmosphere for our patients.” Meet Dr. Rodney Elmore, who joined the Sims Dentistry team in May 2021. Dr. Elmore grew up in Houston where his father (now retired) practiced dentistry for forty years. Dr. Elmore attended Prairie View A&M University and began his professional career as an electrical engineer in 2005. His engineering career included a prestigious position with NASA as the team lead for laser-guided equipment to ensure a successful space shuttle docking with the International Space Station. Dr. Elmore loves to travel and, during a trip with his father to South Africa, he visited several shantytowns and was stunned by the deep poverty he saw. As he shared, “Seeing people in abject poverty and realizing that I have been given abilities and opportunities they do not have, I realized my responsibility to help others. This is why I became a dentist. Through dentistry, I can help others achieve a healthier lifestyle through proper dental care and hygiene and build their confidence as they share a beautiful new smile with those around them.” He received his Doctor of Dental Surgery from Texas A&M Baylor College of Dentistry in 2016 and completed an Advanced Residency Program at Idaho State University in 2017. His Residency included implant placements and complex fixed and removable prosthodontics. Dr. Elmore holds a Level 3 Sedation license and can use various levels of sedation to relieve a patient’s dental anxiety. He is the only dentist in Huntsville who is certified to use I.V. sedation. Dr. Elmore is married to Erika, a Huntsville native who graduated from both Huntsville High School and Sam Houston State University. They have enjoyed making Huntsville their home. In addition to Dr. Sims and Dr. Elmore, the Sims Dentistry team is made up of very qualified and caring individuals who exhibit great skill and excellence in their fields of work. Office Manager Sherry Gray has been with the practice for 34 years. Through her talent, compassion, and cheerful outlook, she contributes to all areas of the practice. Lauren Holik serves as the Treatment Coordinator/Case Director. Her drive to help patients achieve better health has resulted in long-lasting benefits for them and has promoted enduring relationships between patients and team. To say she is an asset does not begin to describe her value and contributions to this practice. Are you looking for a dental care provider who values you, your health, and your well-being?
