Silva Family Dentistry

What Silva Family Dentistry does

Silva Family Dentistry is a single-location, family-owned dental practice founded in 2003 by Dr. Shawn Silva, DMD, and his wife Christine Silva, operating at 42 Lehner Street in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. The practice provides a full spectrum of dental services including preventive care, cosmetic dentistry, restorative procedures, dental implants, Invisalign orthodontics, and facial aesthetics (Botox and dermal fillers), serving individual patients in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire on a fee-for-service basis with approximately six to ten staff members.

The practice's clinical offering is differentiated by adoption of advanced dental technology, including the Solea All-Tissue Laser (launched in February 2026), the CEREC same-day crown system, and digital imaging. Dr. Silva holds a Tufts University dental degree and maintains active affiliations with the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID), the Spear Institute, and the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (FICOI). Patient testimonials indicate multi-decade retention, with some relationships extending nearly the full operating history of the practice.

Silva Family Dentistry operates as a bootstrapped, privately held sole-proprietor model with no disclosed external funding, revenue figures, or payer-mix data. Its 2026 activities—hiring a marketing coordinator, expanding hygiene capacity, and adding both laser and facial-aesthetics service lines—indicate reinvestment in service breadth and patient acquisition within its existing single-site footprint, with no current evidence of geographic expansion or external capitalization.
