The people who keep our patients coming back.
Our patients tell us it is the people who keep them coming back. From the front desk to the treatment chair, our team is friendly, gentle and focused on making every visit easy.
“Hello! I am Dr. Silva, but please call me Nelly.”
Dr. Silva’s vision is to exceed your expectations of a dental practice and bring you world-class service and quality at a price you can afford. She knows dentistry is not always fun, and it can be expensive, so she and her team work hard to remove the barriers between patients and the healthy smiles they want.
Her drive comes from her family. Her parents left Nigeria and worked four jobs between them so that Dr. Silva and her five siblings could get an education. That lesson shaped who she is today: never settle for average, always strive for excellence. In her words, “The distance between dreams and reality is called action.”
Dr. Silva believes in treating the whole oral system for balance, comfort and lasting results. She sees it as her job to teach you about your oral health so you can make good decisions about your care. You make the decisions; she gives you clear options and recommendations, and together you build a plan around your goals, budget and life.
“I pride myself on developing a strong relationship with my dental colleagues and medical professionals. I find that it takes patient care to a superior level.”
