Convenient Access from Manchester Township
Manchester Township covers more than 80 square miles, so the drive to our office depends on which end you start from. From the municipal complex on Colonial Drive, Dental Arts Group in New Egypt is about 27 minutes away, and the township's western neighborhoods are closer still. Anyone who wants a dentist near Manchester Township will find implant, gum and family care under one roof.
Start at the township's municipal building at 1 Colonial Drive and head to Route 37 west. At the Lakehurst Circle, continue onto Route 70 west, then turn right on Beckerville Road, which leads to Horicon Avenue. Turn right on Whiting-New Egypt Road (County Route 539) and drive north through the Pinelands for about 6.2 miles.
Turn left on West Colliers Mills Road, which becomes Archertown Road (County Route 640), and follow Magnolia Avenue and Front Street into New Egypt. Brindletown Road then meets Main Street (County Route 528); turn left and continue onto Jacobstown Road to 4 Jacobstown Rd, New Egypt, NJ 08533. The full 17.1-mile drive takes about 27 minutes with no tolls, and the office is on Google Maps.
Two close neighbors have pages of their own: Lakehurst, the borough the township surrounds, and Whiting.
Manchester Neighborhoods From Pine Lake Park to Leisure Village West
The township was incorporated in 1865 and named by William Torrey for an English city of the same name. The township completely surrounds the borough of Lakehurst. Route 70 runs through its heart, Route 37 crosses the eastern section, and County Routes 530, 539, 547 and 571 tie the rest together.
Pine Lake Park is the township's largest neighborhood outside Whiting, a family community built around Pine Lake. Pine Lake Park & Playground on Lake Drive has a splash pad, a playground, covered picnic areas and a beach. Other Manchester Township parks include World War II Veterans Memorial Park on Lake Road and Tuskegee Airmen Park near the middle school on Route 571.
Active adult living is the other big part of township life. Leisure Village West is an active adult community, and Leisure Knoll is another census-designated place within the township. The Ocean County Library's local branch sits at 21 Colonial Drive, beside the municipal complex where our directions begin.
The drive itself crosses quiet Pinelands country. Once the route reaches County Route 539, it runs north through Pinelands forest toward Colliers Mills before reaching the village center of New Egypt.
Our weekday hours help with the longer drive. Tuesday begins at 8:30 AM and Thursday at 8:00 AM, while Monday runs 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Wednesday stays open until 6:00 PM, and the office is closed on weekends.
Two Generations of Dental Needs Across Manchester
Families in Pine Lake Park follow the township school district calendar, from Ridgeway Elementary and the other elementary schools to the middle school and high school. For those kids, routine cleanings, sealants and fluoride varnish carry most of the load. The township soccer complex off Colonial Drive, with Summit Park's courts and playground at its east end, gives kids room to play.
Active adults tend to bring a different list: worn fillings, missing teeth and gum disease that has been building for years. Implants, implant-supported dentures and periodontal maintenance address those needs. The DAG Comprehensive Exam reviews existing crowns, fillings and implants and includes a consultation about any missing teeth.
Root canal problems show up at every age. Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold, pain when biting or a darkening tooth can point to an infected nerve. Our in-house endodontists handle root canal therapy and retreatment without a trip to another office.
Dentures need care as well. Taking them out at night, brushing them daily and bringing them to regular checkups lets our dentists spot sore spots or a loosening fit early. Implant-supported dentures still need cleanings around the implants, much like natural teeth.
Because the trip runs close to half an hour, booking family members back to back can save a second drive. A grandparent's cleaning and a grandchild's checkup can be requested in the same block.
Restorative and Preventive Care from a Dentist Near Manchester Township
Healthy Gums
Deep cleaning by scaling and root planing, usually over two visits, treats gum disease. Periodontal maintenance then keeps it in check, with cleanings as often as every three months.
Implants & Dentures
Single implants, full and partial dentures, and dentures anchored by two to four implants suit Manchester's active adults. The implant consultation is free.
Cavity & Disease Prevention
Checkups, cleanings and digital x-rays serve every age. Sealants and fluoride varnish protect Pine Lake Park kids, and adults receive an oral cancer screening.
Endodontics
Root canal therapy and retreatment save infected teeth, with endodontists on the in-house team. Gum swelling or discharge near a tooth is a sign to call.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Porcelain veneers, crowns and tooth-colored fillings refresh a smile at any age. Gum contouring can even out an uneven gumline.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Dental Arts Group from Manchester Township, and how do I get there?
Dental Arts Group is 17.1 miles from the township's municipal building, about a 27-minute drive. Take Route 37 and Route 70 west, then Beckerville Road and Horicon Avenue to County Route 539 north into New Egypt. Residents who want a dentist near Manchester Township can make the trip with no tolls, and western neighborhoods are closer.
How often should I get cleanings if I have gum disease?
Often every three months instead of twice a year. After a deep cleaning and a re-evaluation one month later, patients with gum disease usually move to periodontal maintenance, where cleanings become more frequent to keep bacteria in check. Our dentists set the schedule based on how your gums respond and adjust it over time.
What does a first implant consultation cost?
Nothing. The office offers a free consultation for dental implants. Our dentists talk through your options, from a single implant to implant-supported dentures and the TeethXpress procedure with Laser-Lok implants. You leave with a clear idea of the steps and the cost before deciding anything.
Can I pay for implants over time?
Yes, through financing. The office works with CareCredit and Sunbit, which let patients spread the cost of treatment over time. It also takes cash, checks and most major credit cards. Every expense is explained before treatment begins, so the bill holds no surprises when the work is done.
Will traffic affect the drive from Manchester for an 8:30 AM Tuesday visit?
It can: the drive is about 27 minutes from the municipal building on Colonial Drive in light traffic, and peak-hour traffic on Route 37 and Route 70 can add time. Allow extra time on a weekday morning, especially for a first visit. Homes in the western part of the township are closer to the office and spend less time on the road.
