Nelly Silva – DMD, FADIA – Collegeville Sleep Dentist

Hello! I am Dr. Silva, but please call me Nelly. I am so glad to be a part of the Collegeville community and bring Collegeville Sleep Well to you. It’s my vision to exceed your expectations for a dental sleep practice and bring you world-class service and quality…at a price you can afford. We know that sleep dentistry isn’t always fun, and it certainly can be expensive. At Collegeville Sleep Well we work tirelessly to remove the barriers between our patients and the healthy sleep and pain-free living you deserve!

I am Board Certified in Dental Sleep Medicine. I am also a Qualified Sleep Dentist with the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine and a Fellow of Craniofacial Pain with the American Academy of Craniofacial Pain. I received my Fellowship American Dental Implant Association September 2012-this distinction is achieved by less than 5% of dentists worldwide. I was also nominated amongst my peers as the 40 under 40 Fall 2014. You can count on me to stay on top of the newest treatments and the most current research. And as you will see when you visit our state-of-art office, I refuse to provide care to you with anything less than the best technology.

I feel that it is my responsibility to teach you about your oral health so that you can make excellent decisions about which care to pursue. In my practice, my patients make their own decisions. I’m here to help and give you recommendations. We will work together…charting the best course for your care. Together we will make a plan that is custom-built for your goals, budget, and life.

My team and I look forward to meeting you and your family. We will not just make your visit an enjoyable experience but create the best treatment plan for you. We truly believe in Sleeping Well!
