About Dentistry for Life

Dentistry for Life in Philadelphia, PA, provides orthodontic care for patients seeking clear aligner treatment.

The practice specializes in Invisalign, offering an alternative to traditional braces for individuals looking to straighten their teeth without the visibility of metal brackets and wires. Dr. Kunal Parikh and Dr. Kimmie Patel lead the clinical team, delivering customized treatment plans based on individual dental needs and alignment goals. Invisalign uses a series of removable clear aligners that gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. Patients typically wear each set of aligners for a prescribed period before advancing to the next stage in the sequence. This approach allows for correction of spacing issues, crowding, and bite concerns while maintaining a discreet appearance during treatment. The practice has established a reputation in the Philadelphia community, reflected in its 4.9 rating across 726 Google reviews. This patient feedback suggests consistent experiences with clinical care and practice operations. Dentistry for Life serves patients throughout the Philadelphia area. Individuals interested in Invisalign treatment should schedule a consultation to determine their candidacy for clear aligner therapy, as treatment suitability depends on the complexity of orthodontic needs and individual dental health factors.

Dentistry For Life has made any worries regarding my oral hygiene disappear!! When I first started my treatment, I was a bit nervous due to issues with previous dental offices, but the staff made sure I was comfortable and was beyond patient with me. As a college student, it can be difficult to fit self care into your schedule but DFL was always communicative about openings and solutions to get me seen.The atmosphere is welcoming and warm even on the coldest days and the nature videos played on the tvs will forever make my experiences better! There’s no other place I’d recommend! 🫂☺️ Wishing the staff nothing but the best, Aamiyah

DO NOT GO THERE. I repeat, DO NOT GO THERE, here is the reason. I went there for dental implants and porcelain veneers. At first, they will give you all the attention you need until they get payed. Then they will reschedule you until rescheduling becomes your routing. One day they had me scheduled, they waited until I got into the office and waited for like 10 minutes, then they canceled the appointment. Second, it takes them for ever to make a simple crown, two moths at least. Went to Miami, did all of my veneers (top and bottom) within one week. Even if they get your crowns, they don't let you know. You always have to call and check on them. Think, they will call you back and let you, think again. Last but not least, I've asked them multiple times in person and by emails to send me all of the documents related to my treatment since I started going there, but guest what, STILL DID NOT RECEIVE THEM YET. Not talking about how rude and unprofessional they are. Oh and did I mentioned that they tried to charge my insurance twice for the same treatment which was already paid? HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE

Dr. Kimme Patel is truly exceptional. I had an advanced smile makeover done, and the results exceeded my expectations. She was incredibly gentle throughout the entire process and went above and beyond to create a great, natural-looking smile. Her attention to detail and genuine care really stand out. I couldn’t be happier with my experience and results. Highly recommend!

Friendly staff, quality work, and affordable. They also check in regularly before doing stuff to make sure you’re comfortable/not stressed. They do schedule out quite a bit (and have limited business hours/days) so it can be hard to get a non-emergency appointment, but if you do have an emergency pop up they get you right in.

They did a phenomenal job fixing my TERRIBLE AND HORRIBLE smile. The doctors are second to none: unbelievably compassionate and down to earth. I love life so much more being able to smile now. Highly recommend them.
