Dentistry For Life

About Dentistry For Life

Dentistry For Life is a general, cosmetic, and implant dental practice located on Walnut Street in Center City Philadelphia, serving patients from Rittenhouse Square and the surrounding neighborhoods. The practice is built around helping nervous or long absent patients get back into care comfortably, offering sedation dentistry alongside a full menu of services that includes dental implants, all on four implant solutions, teeth in a day, implant overdentures, dental bridges, crowns, and full mouth reconstruction. Patients also come to the office for cosmetic work such as porcelain veneers, smile makeovers, digital smile design, teeth whitening, and Invisalign, as well as everyday needs like cleanings, gum disease treatment, root canals, and emergency dental care.

The practice is led by partners Dr. Kimmie Patel and Dr. Kunal Parikh, who work together on implant planning, gum and smile makeover cases, and full arch reconstruction for patients missing several or all of their teeth. Dr. Parikh in particular focuses on implant restoration and uses digital planning software to map out cases such as fixed implant dentures and implant bridges before treatment begins. The office also states it coordinates care with local physicians for patients whose gum disease may affect broader health conditions such as diabetes or heart disease, and it has been recognized as a dental provider for local professional sports teams. For anyone considering dental implants in Philadelphia, the practice offers a combination of surgical and restorative implant services along with sedation options for patients who feel anxious about treatment.
