Meet Dr. DeSilva

Dentistry is a unique profession that allows me to partner with my patients in multiple ways. Not only do I have the opportunity to improve oral health, but also to promote overall health, wellbeing, and self-confidence. My goal is to provide optimal oral care, with an emphasis on meticulous maintenance. I could not be more thrilled to be part of the Soundental team.

Education and Continuing Education

Originally from Virginia, I attended the University of Virginia. There, I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry. I continued on to New York University College of Dentistry, earning my Doctorate of Dental Surgery. I completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry.

Dentistry is an ever-changing profession, so commitment to continuing education is essential to providing the finest care for my patients. Annually I complete a range of continuing education courses encompassing a variety of aspects of dentistry.

Outside the Office

I was born and raised in Northern Virginia, but have made the move to Connecticut with my husband. In my spare time, my husband and I have enjoyed exploring our new home! In addition, my hobbies include reading, baking, college basketball, and teaching myself calligraphy.
