Seriously Good Dentistry. Genuinely Good People.
Great dentistry is about more than fixing teeth. It’s about knowing who you’re trusting with your smile, feeling comfortable asking questions, and having a dentist who sees the bigger picture.
At Advanced Dentistry of Collegeville, Dr. Nelly Silva and our team combine advanced clinical expertise, modern technology, and a refreshingly personal approach to care. From your routine cleaning to complex restorative dentistry, implants, cosmetic care, TMJ treatment, and dental sleep medicine, we’re here to help you smile, function, and feel your best.


Since 2012, we’ve had the privilege of caring for thousands of smiles throughout Collegeville and the surrounding communities.
But we’re not interested in making dentistry feel like an assembly line.
We take the time to get to know you, understand what you need, explain your options, and create care that makes sense for your health, your goals, and your life.

Dr. Nelly Silva, DMD, brings extensive training across general, cosmetic, restorative, implant, neuromuscular, sleep, and craniofacial dentistry to every patient she treats.
A graduate of Temple University’s Kornberg School of Dentistry, Dr. Silva has continued her education through some of dentistry’s leading advanced training programs. She is also a Clinical Associate Professor at Temple University and the author of Breathe Right: The Link Between Nutrition, Airway and Getting a Good Night’s Sleep.
Her philosophy is simple: look beyond a single tooth and understand how the entire oral system works together.
That means considering your teeth, bite, jaw, airway, comfort, function, and long-term health when recommending care.
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.
Dr. Nelly Silva
Your dental needs can change throughout your life. Your dentist shouldn’t have to.
Advanced Dentistry of Collegeville was designed to provide comprehensive care in one place, so you don’t have to bounce between offices every time your smile needs something different.
From preventive visits and cosmetic improvements to dental implants, root canals, oral surgery, orthodontics, TMJ care, and sleep dentistry, Dr. Silva’s extensive training allows us to take a more complete approach to your care.

Smarter technology helps us see more, plan more precisely, and make your experience more comfortable.

We take dentistry seriously. Making you feel like you’re sitting in a cold, intimidating dental office? Not so much.
Our Collegeville office was designed around the little things that make appointments easier, including a beverage bar, internet bar, pillows and blankets, entertainment, a kids play area, and a friendly team that wants you to feel at home.
More importantly, you’ll be listened to.
We want you to understand your care, feel comfortable asking questions, and be an active part of every decision about your smile.

Dr. Silva’s approach extends beyond traditional dentistry. Her advanced education in neuromuscular dentistry, craniofacial pain, airway health, and dental sleep medicine allows her to look at how your bite, jaw, airway, and oral health may work together.
That broader perspective inspired her book, Breathe Right: The Link Between Nutrition, Airway and Getting a Good Night’s Sleep, which explores the relationship between oral development, breathing, nutrition, and sleep.
Dr. Silva’s advanced education and qualifications include:



Dr. Silva has been involved with professional organizations including the American Academy of General Dentistry, American Academy of Craniofacial Pain, American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, and Montgomery Bucks Dental Board.
Dr. Silva’s professional and volunteer involvement has included the Pennsylvania Dental Association’s MOM-n-PA program, the PNFE Foundation, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., and Jack and Jill of America, Inc.
Our practice is independently owned and operated in Collegeville and is not affiliated with other dental offices.
Whether you need a cleaning, want to transform your smile, have a tooth that’s been bothering you, or are looking for answers to a more complex dental concern, you don’t need to figure it all out before you come in.
That’s our job.
Come meet Dr. Silva and our team, tell us what’s going on, and we’ll take it from there.
