Miler Orthodontics is thrilled to welcome a distinguished addition to the Rotary Club of Bluffton—Dr. Sherwood Miler, DDS. His induction not only marks a personal milestone but also fortifies the deep ties between Miler Orthodontics and the Lowcountry community.
From Navy Service to Orthodontic Leadership—and Now Rotary
Dr. Sherwood Miler’s journey to Rotary membership is a natural extension of a life built on service. After earning his dental degree, he served as a Lieutenant and general dentist at the Parris Island Dental Clinic, where he provided critical care to Marines in the midst of their demanding training. Those years underscored not only his clinical skill but also his ability to lead with resilience, empathy, and dedication under pressure.
Today, as a board-certified orthodontist, Dr. Miler continues that legacy of service in a new capacity—transforming lives through advanced orthodontic care. Leading thriving practices in both Beaufort and Bluffton, he combines cutting-edge expertise with genuine compassion, creating confident smiles while strengthening the very community he has long been committed to serving.
Meet Dr. Sherwood Miler: Service, Expertise, and Community at Heart
Dr. Sherwood Miler’s story is deeply connected to the Lowcountry he proudly calls home. A native of the region, he graduated in the top 4% of his class in biology at the College of Charleston before earning his dental degree with top honors from the Medical University of South Carolina. His pursuit of excellence began early and has carried through every stage of his career.
Following dental school, Dr. Miler served as a Navy Lieutenant and general dentist at the Parris Island Dental Clinic, where he provided essential care to Marines during one of the most challenging times of their training. After his military service, he refined his expertise through an orthodontic residency at the Georgia School of Orthodontics, completing a fellowship in clear-aligner therapy. Today, as a board-certified orthodontist, he leads thriving practices in Bluffton and Beaufort, combining advanced clinical skill with compassionate care. Beyond his practice, Dr. Miler remains deeply invested in the Lowcountry through his involvement with the Chamber of Commerce and his membership in the Rotary Club of Bluffton—furthering his commitment to service, leadership, and community growth.
A Community-Oriented Professional Earns His Place

As a Lowcountry native actively involved in local organizations and the Chamber of Commerce, he lives the mission of community-first service each day. His patients aren’t just appointments, they’re neighbors, friends, and familiar faces in town.
Joining the Rotary is a natural expansion of this ethos—allowing him to serve beyond the orthodontic chair, contributing to broader initiatives that benefit Beaufort, Bluffton, and the larger region.
