Avoiding the dentist, however, means that you miss out on professional oral health care, and put yourself at risk for serious health problems.

If only you could have your dental work done without even realizing it. If only you could sleep through your dental procedures and wake up with beautiful, healthy teeth.

Crooked, irregular teeth spoil your smile and make you feel self-conscious. Do you find yourself smiling with your mouth closed when photographed? Are there other ways you try to hide embarrassment over crooked or misaligned teeth? Orthodontics have made it possible for people to have straight, healthy smiles, even if their teeth are naturally crooked, gapped, crowded or otherwise misaligned.

I had a wonderful experience at the office today! The staff is friendly, caring and greet you by name. It means a lot to me that I am finally able to find a great dentist office in my area. Harneet was outstanding and made me feel so comfortable during my visit. I feel confident in trusting them with my smile for years to come. 😃

I am not a fan of going to the dentist it actually gives me real anxiety. I go to the dentist because i want nice teeth and a healthy mouth. I found Denistry for Life a few years back and they are extremely patient and offer all types of methods (numbing, laughing gas, being put to sleep) to get minor or major dental work. The hygienist and both doctors are progressional, knowledgeable, caring, patient and friendly. I strongly recommend this team!

Dentistry for Life has enable me to smile once again. If you ask any who knows me, they'd say that I never smile. I have smiled more since having work done than in the past 35 years. I'm 52, and it feels good to be able to smile again. Everyone who knows has noticed a difference in me and my smile. I truly appreciate Dentistry for Life.

As a professional in an emergency situation, I came to the Dentistry For Life. I am overall glad that I came to their offices. The type of oral attention I needed performed was out of the scope of work that Dr. Parkih and Dr. Patel would normally handle, but because of how critical the situation was, they were able to take care of re-cementing my tooth. The best part was this was all done in less than a hour. The precision and accuracy was on par, so it's safe to say I will return although my insurance is not accepted by their offices. As a result, I was given a discount on my emergency first

I’m so impressed with the quality of care & attentiveness of all the staff at Dentistry for Life (only gone twice). I had my first dental cleaning today and it wasn’t painful! I always ask for my gums to be jelled up. None was needed today. So Impressed by the level of Concern for my teeth & oral care…. I got some great flossing tips as well. Definitely recommend Dentistry for Life

I luv them all there they are the best everyone there are so nice and Dr Parikh made my mouth look so beautiful. I went from the worst mouth u ever seen in life to looking like I have a model mouth now thanks to Dentistry for life. Went from never smiling and covering my mouth now.

I wish all of my life's dental work could have been done here. They have the state of the art equipment to do everything amazing. I had two root canals, two build up and two molars. I have to say I was worried. I had a lot of bad experiences with dentists in the past and felt like I was rolling the dice but the second I got into the office , the office manager Lianna, made me feel like this was do-able and they were going to help me figure it out. Once funding was in order a had an appointment for ALL THAT work. It didn't take nearly as long as other places because they have excellent

Dentistry for Life is a dentist office I actually look forward coming to. Dr. Patel and Dr. Parikh are a dream team. It's the first time I felt I could trust my dentists completely and that they had my best interests in mind. Thank you, thank you, thank you! The rest of the staff as well is such a joy. From the moment you walk in, to sitting in the patient rooms with your choice of fun music to rock out to during your procedures, it's an excellent experience that I will be recommending to all of my friends!
Not to mention my smile had me in happy tears. I had years of bad dental work

I recently booked an appointment for a cleaning with the hygienist there which I need every three or four months now and I was told I could see the hygienist if I signed a release so I got there for my appointment yesterday and I signed the release. At the time I told her that there was an area in my upper right back of my mouth which shouldn't be cleaned but at some point during the cleaning I thought she was getting incredibly close to that area so I motioned to stop and at that point something fell out in my hand which I had felt in my mouth right before then and I didn't know if it

I'd moved to Philadelphia late last year and it was an easy decision to check out Dentistry For Life, given their amount of 5 star reviews. After a few appointments in, I can confidently say that they their rating is 100% justified. Every single point of interaction with them - scheduling, communication, the appointment itself, reminders, etc. - is top-notch and I can't really think of anything that they can improve upon. All of the staff are extremely friendly and it's always a pleasure talking to any of them. I've generally been apprehensive about visiting the dentist in the

The most thorough services, as well as friendly and fun staff i've ever experienced in a dental office - and over the years I have been to many! I particularly appreciated the time Dr. Patel spent with me to make sure I understood every issue and option I needed to consider for my dental care. So glad I found them!

Recently moved to center city and after seeing the amazing reviews for this dental office decided to try it out and I'm so happy I did!! Everyone was super friendly and made me feel comfortable and welcomed. Both my dental hygienist Angela and Dr. Patel made an effort to get to know me and answer all my questions/concerns. They were super knowledgeable and helpful! The office was clean and nicely decorated. I'm so happy with my decision and definitely recommend!!

Being newish to the Philadelphia area I always turn to Yelp to guide me in the direction of what is "loved by the people" and they haven't let me down yet! I am someone who went 2 years without seeing a dentist because I get so much anxiety from doing so, yet when I showed up for my cleaning I was very candid and not once was I shamed. My dental hygienist made me feel proud for coming in and very safe, I wore my headphones the whole time and before I knew it, it was over! Not only that but I already booked my 6 month follow up :) Dr. Parikh came in to give me the once over and discussed

Moving to a new city comes with many challenges and finding the best healthcare providers is at the top of my list. After days, weeks, even a few months "mission accomplished" for dental care. First of all being able to get a Saturday appointment was beyond the best for my work schedule. Everything from the office decor to the hospitality is warm, inviting, and extremely friendly. Professionalism Customer Service ...I feel very confident in the care I will receive going forward. I left the office feeling excited about the dental care plan that we discussed not to mention it's a

I found Dentistry For Life after a co-worker recommended this group to me - and after I had a few not-so-positive experiences with other local dentists in Philly. Like most people, I had the same dentist for 20+ years, so finding a new one to trust and feel at ease with proved to be a little harder than I had thought.
I went in for a consultation with Dr. Parikh after a previous dentist told me I had 11 cavities- which unfortunately turned out to be true, but Dr. Parikh kindly and reassuringly walked me through what the process would be to get me to a point of comfort and an end goal of a healthy

This review will be long FYI!
Wow, wow, wow! Cannot recommend enough. I am very picky when it comes to choosing restaurants, doctors, places to visit, etc... so when a suddenly painful toothache occurred, I was fortunate to find Dentistry for Life here on Yelp so I reached out to them via the chat function on their website. Maria from their office called me shortly after to set up an appointment and they were able to get me in the SAME DAY! I went in around 2pm and was promptly greeted and welcomed by not only the front desk staff but both Doctors, Dr. Patel and Dr. Parikh. I have never been greeted
