Patient in transit in Miami-Dade & Davie

Moved to South Florida in the middle of orthodontic treatment? South Dental welcomes patients who started orthodontics in another state or country and evaluates each case so treatment can continue.

Continue Your Orthodontic Treatment in Miami

Moving should not mean starting over. Through our Patient in Transit program, our team reviews the treatment you have already received and the current position of your teeth, then explains the options for continuing care.

How It Works

  • Request an evaluation: book a visit at the South Dental office most convenient for you.
  • Bring your records: if available, bring X-rays, treatment notes and information from your previous provider.
  • Case review: the dental team evaluates your teeth, bite and appliances.
  • Personalized plan: you receive recommendations, expected next steps and cost information before treatment continues.

Who It Is For

Children, teens and adults with traditional braces or other orthodontic treatment started outside South Florida — including patients relocating from other countries.

Patient in transit — frequently asked questions

What records should I bring?

Bring any X-rays, treatment notes or contact information from your previous orthodontic provider. It helps, but an evaluation is possible without them.

Can you continue treatment started in another country?

Yes. South Dental accepts patients who started orthodontic treatment in other states or countries, after evaluating the case.

Will my treatment plan change?

After evaluating your case, the team will explain whether your current plan can continue or what adjustments are recommended.
