Get to Know Dr. Clifton

Smile Easy. Live Happy.

  • Sparkman Orthodontics
  • October 17, 2022

1. Where did you grow up?

I grew up in Pampa, Texas, and graduated from Pampa High School in 2010.

2. Why did you decide to go into the orthodontic field?

Dr. Sparkman had a major role in my decision to become an orthodontist. When I worked in the office during the
summer of 2012, I saw time after time the positive impact an orthodontist can make on someone’s life.
Watching their confidence skyrocket is an amazing thing to now be a part of.3. Do you have any pets?

We have a Labrador retriever named Gray, that is constantly full of energy. He loves playing catch and
swimming. We also have a cat named Moose.

4. What do you like to do for fun outside of work?

I really love spending time with my wife, Jayne, and my little girl, Byrdie. Outside of family time, I enjoy anything
sports (especially football season)! I enjoy relaxing on any beach, playing golf, cooking on my smoker or working
outside.

5. What is your favorite movie/TV show?

The new Top Gun is pretty hard to beat, but Christmas movies like Christmas Vacation and Home Alone are up
on my list too.

6. What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

Mint chocolate chip

7. What kind of music do you listen to?

Country music is my fav.

8. What has been the most rewarding thing of your career so far?

For me, the most memorable experiences start at the initial consult appointment. It can be very emotional
seeing someone that has been bullied or hates to smile. Finding a solution and giving them the smile they’ve
always wanted is priceless. It’s so exciting seeing them transform over the course of treatment.

9. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Grand Cayman is my favorite place to visit. The beaches are incredible, and the food is outstanding.

10. Tell us a fun fact most people don’t know about you.

I really enjoy scuba diving. The best diving trip I’ve been on was to Bimini, in the Bahamas. We went shark diving
and got to see hammerheads, bull sharks and tons of reef sharks in their natural environments!

Our 5-Star Experience

We’re thankful for the opportunity to serve our community by making them smile every day. Hear what our patients are saying about their experience with us!

Marcial G.
Sparkman Orthodontics is absolutely amazing! They are friendly, professional, and always have the highest standards for their patients and their employees. I highly recommend them.
Holly B.
I took my son to the Pampa office and was pretty impressed by the way the staff treated us, their level of organization, the way work as a team, their knowledge and their cleanliness. I’m am constantly impressed by them each visit. Today I went to the Amarillo office, and it’s way swankier than the Pampa office. I can’t recommend this place enough. This is by far the BEST dental office I’ve ever experienced.
Kim M.
Sparkman is amazing! My son and I both have nothing but positive things about everyone at both Amarillo/Canyon locations! Their set up flows, from check in, treatment, to checkout!
Rachel H.
Amazing staff! Everyone is always friendly and professional and I love that they set you up with the whole plan and payments from the beginning so no surprises. They explain everything before they do it and that helped a lot with my kiddos anxiety too. Love them all! Highly recommend!
Mags A.
Love Sparkman Orthodontics! From the start, they made the process of getting Invisalign for my 11 year old son worry-free. I was concerned about having to work in multiple appointments over the course of the treatment, but fortunately, we are able to do our scans from home! Communication was quick and we've just moved to our last aligner for this phase of treatment and his teeth look great! Highly recommend.
Jacqueline M.
The whole staff is super nice, and they all made my son feel as comfortable as possible. By far this has been the place with most patience for him. They always make sure he knows exactly what to expect.
Suzy Q
Being a busy mom of four children and working full time appointments are hard to make. Sparkman orthodontics offers a scan at home which has been amazing! Super easy process to getting a straight and beautiful smile!!

5 stars! My daughter just got her braces off after 18ish months and her teeth are absolutely perfect. The doctors and all of the staff are very prompt & kind. Every appointment was quick & painless. I highly recommend Sparkman to anyone looking for help with their smile.
Rachel W.
