Richard R Souviron, DDS

I’d say that practicing anything for 50 years qualifies a person as an expert; Dr. Richard Souviron is an authority in his field, and so much more. I know you’re thinking he’s so outdated; he uses a rock and a piece of burlap to treat a toothache (see Castaway)! Trust someone who’s spent over $ 15K on his teeth; stick with Dick.
If his state of the art facility and professional demeanor don’t win you over, his experience and reputation will. He’s completed tens of thousands of procedures, is constantly traveling to conferences, was featured on the Forensic Files episode «Once Bitten», and wrote the book on performing Dental Autopsies (literally).
Some of his working titles include;
Lecturer, Forensic Investigation and Anthropology Summer Scholars’ Program at the University of Miami.
Adjunct Professor, Miller School of Medicine’s Pathology Department
Chief Forensic Dentist and Associate Medical Examiner, Metro-​Dade County Medical Examiner. He earned this distinction after introducing Bite Mark Evidence Analysis to the world in the State of Florida vs. Ted Bundy, as well as identifying the remains of Jimmy Ryce, and the passengers of ValuJet Flight 592 crash.
I was going to ask him to make me a personalized platinum and diamond grill, but I got bumped by a TIGER. That’s right; one of his duties includes veterinary dentistry at Metro Zoo.
So why am I rambling about all of these other things he does besides fixing live human teeth?
Those are his HOBBIES!
Having him fix the tooth you cracked opening Heinekens; is like having a Fetal Surgeon give you stitches. Oh well, we might as well take advantage while he’s still practicing. Some quick tips before heading to his office in the Gables (across the street from OneBurger);
He has a long list of patients and travels often, book your appointments well in advance.
One of the few specialists in South Florida that treats TMJ (temporomandibular joint disorder).
Explains exactly what he’s going to do and why it’s medically necessary.
You need Zen discipline not to laugh while being treated.
All of those accolades and did I mention he’s a Miami native and a ‘Cane.
Whether he’s identifying human remains, teaching, or fixing your busted Steve Buscemi-​like smile, Dr. Souviron takes a bite out of the competition.

Dr. Souviron is a HOOT! If you like fun and exciting dentists who volunteer their time repairing tiger’s broken teeth, Dr. Souviron is for you!
Having just moved to Miami, I asked a couple friends for recommendations and one of my trusty advisers said she’s gone to Dr. Souviron for a number of years. However, she neglected to mention just how funny he is, but the surprise was definitely worth it at 9:00am on what otherwise would have been a plain old Wednesday.
The metered parking could be a challenge if you don’t have change or a credit card, but since they open at 7:30am, you can effectively park in front for free if you get the first appointment of the day.
