Transform Your Smile with Invisalign

At Manyak Dental Group, we offer Invisalign (also known as clear braces) as part of our comprehensive approach to oral health care. Taking it a step further than just straight teeth, our driving force for orthodontic care is to establish proper occlusion – the way your teeth come together when you bite. This approach straightens your teeth while preventing issues like tooth shifting, cracking, and wear over time. You're not just getting a beautiful smile – you're investing in your overall oral health.

Laser technology makes it possible to treat early cavities without the need for traditional drilling or numbing. Instead, we gently remove decay with pinpoint accuracy for a faster, quieter, and more comfortable experience for both kids and adults. 

Laser therapy is a fast, effective way to treat cold sores and herpetic lesions. By targeting the area with gentle laser energy, we can relieve pain, speed up healing, and even stop an outbreak if caught early. Treatment is quick, requires no anesthesia, and can reduce the frequency and severity of future flare-ups. For best results, schedule a visit as soon as you feel tingling or burning and our team will take it from there. 

Whether you're looking to reshape uneven gums for a more balanced smile or need to remove inflamed gum tissue due to gum disease, laser treatment offers a precise, low-discomfort option. There's usually little to no bleeding, and healing time is quicker than with traditional methods.

A laser frenectomy is a simple way to release a tight or restricted tongue or lip tie. It's a quick procedure with minimal discomfort, and because there's no cutting or stitches, healing tends to be much easier—especially for infants and young children.

Preparing a tooth for a crown or filling doesn’t always require a drill. In many cases, we can use a laser to shape the tooth with accuracy and less discomfort. It’s a great option for patients who prefer a quieter, more relaxed experience.

Lasers allow us to perform minor oral surgeries with fewer stitches, minimal swelling, and an overall easier recovery experience. For example, if you have an unusual bump or sore in your mouth, we can use a laser to remove a small tissue sample (biopsy) for further evaluation, usually with little to no bleeding and minimal discomfort.

We also use lasers to uncover teeth that haven’t fully erupted, such as impacted canines or premolars. This is especially helpful during orthodontic treatment, making it easier to guide the tooth into place without the need for traditional surgery.

The Benefits of Invisalign

Better Oral Health

Removable aligners make it easy to maintain your regular oral hygiene routine. This helps prevent decay and gum problems that can sometimes occur with traditional braces.

Aesthetic Appeal

Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without the noticeable appearance of traditional braces. Smile confidently throughout your treatment.

Improved Comfort

The smooth, custom-fit aligners eliminate the discomfort often associated with traditional braces. No brackets or wires means no irritation to your cheeks and gums.

Your Invisalign Journey

Embarking on your Invisalign treatment with Manyak Dental Group means experiencing a streamlined, personalized process designed for your comfort and optimal results. Here's what you can expect:

Request a Visit
01

Initial Examination

Your journey begins with a comprehensive examination by Dr. Manyak. We'll discuss your smile goals, assess your oral health, and determine if Invisalign is the right choice for you. Using advanced imaging technology, we'll create a detailed map of your current dental structure and project the expected outcomes of your treatment.

02

Custom Treatment Planning

Based on your consultation, we will design a personalized Invisalign treatment plan. We'll use 3D computer imaging to show you the step-by-step transformation of your smile, allowing you to visualize your end results before treatment even begins. This plan will determine the precise movements of your teeth and the approximate duration of your treatment.

03

Receiving Your Aligners

Once your custom aligners are ready, we'll invite you back to our office. We ensure your first set fits comfortably and provide detailed instructions on how to wear and care for your aligners. We'll also discuss the importance of wearing your aligners for 20-22 hours per day and how to progress through your sets of aligners.

04

Progress Check-ups and Refinements

Throughout your treatment, you'll have regular check-ups to monitor your progress. These appointments show us if your treatment is progressing as planned and help us make any necessary adjustments. As you near the end of your treatment, we may recommend refinements to perfect your smile and bite alignment.

I've been coming here for a few years now and have never had a bad experience. I used to be  terrified of the dentist to the point I didn't go for 4 years but because of the atmosphere and staff I feel so comfortable I've fallen asleep twice. I have most appointments with Jackie and she is great. Overall all of the staff is welcoming and some of the nicest people.

Daniel C.

Always an enjoyable experience when I visit Maria at Manyak Dental Group for a cleaning. Thorough, friendly, and caring for all of my dental needs. Everyone there is happy and helpful, plus the atmosphere is calming and comfy for those longer appointments.

Jamie G.

Love this office! Everyone from the front desk to the hygienist and dentists are so friendly. Jackie is an amazing hygienist- so very gentle and I love just listening to her and talking to her when my mouth isn't being worked on. Would give them 6 stars if I could.

Arlene F.

This has been my dentist for nearly 10 years and there’s nothing I wouldn’t trust them with. I drive down from SF multiple times a year because I don’t want to change! Always super friendly, effective and efficient. Today I had work done on a filling by Dr. Levine and Sarah - they used a new cold laser that allowed me to forego anesthesia and it was awesome. Also my hygienist Jackie is the best!

Mackenzie H.

Dr. Manyak is wonderful. She is so professional and comprehensive. I love the fact that her office is so “ high tech” and she has all the latest equipment that makes getting my treatments so easy and painless!  Also Amadell is great as has such a gently touch. Every one in the front office is great as well!  I highly recommend Dr Manyak and co!

Sheri M.

I recently had my teeth cleaned and sealants applied at Manyak Dental, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcomed and comfortable. The hygienist, Jackie, was thorough and gentle during the cleaning, and I truly appreciated her attention to detail and the care she took to ensure my comfort throughout the process. After the cleaning, I met with Dr. Dui for my sealant application, which was quick and painless. He explained each step of the process, making me feel at ease the entire time. I highly recommend Manyak Dental Group to anyone seeking quality dental care!

Mikaela F.

Always a great time at this dentists office! They’re amazing. Jackie the nurse does a great job and has been working with me for a few years already. Jenny is always understanding of my busy schedule and does great work getting appointments set. Even though I moved away I still commute to this dentists office. Definitely recommend!

Keeping your Invisalign aligners clean is crucial for maintaining good oral hygiene and ensuring the effectiveness of your treatment. We recommend rinsing your aligners every time you remove them and brushing them gently with a soft toothbrush and clear soap at least once a day. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic. Dr. Manyak will provide you with detailed care instructions and may recommend specific cleaning products designed for clear aligners.

For many orthodontic issues, Invisalign can be just as effective as traditional braces. It's particularly suited for mild to moderate alignment problems. However, some complex cases may still require traditional braces. We only recommend the most effective treatment for your specific needs, whether that's Invisalign or another orthodontic solution.

The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on individual needs, but most cases are completed within 12 to 18 months. Some patients with minor alignment issues may see results in as little as 6 months, while more complex cases might take longer. After your consultation, we'll provide a personalized timeline based on your unique situation.
