Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that mimic natural teeth in function and appearance. Our practice offers comprehensive implant dentistry, including guided placement and restoration. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability, speech clarity, and facial structure preservation. We utilize advanced imaging technology for precise implant positioning.
Gum Disease Treatment
We specialize in treating all stages of periodontal disease through non-surgical and surgical interventions. Treatment options include scaling and root planing, laser therapy, and tissue regeneration. Our approach focuses on eliminating infection while preserving dental structures. Early intervention prevents tooth loss and systemic health complications.
Laser Gum Surgery
LANAP laser treatment offers minimally invasive gum disease management with faster recovery times. This FDA-approved technology removes diseased tissue while preserving healthy structures. Patients experience less bleeding, reduced recession, and accelerated healing compared to traditional surgery. It's ideal for those seeking conservative periodontal solutions.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting procedures restore jawbone volume for dental implant candidates. We employ autogenous, allograft, and synthetic materials to stimulate natural bone growth. This treatment addresses bone loss from periodontal disease or tooth extraction. Successful grafting enables implant placement where previously impossible.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting procedures correct receding gums to protect tooth roots and improve aesthetics. Connective tissue grafts using autologous or processed donor tissue are meticulously placed to cover exposed areas. This reduces sensitivity, prevents further recession, and enhances smile appearance with natural-looking results.

I would recommend Dr. Bissell to anyone who has had a complicated dental history and in need of dental implants. More importantly he made a follow up call after each visit to check on my healing progress. Love my new smile!

Such a great experience! Dr. Bissell and his staff were so amazing, caring, and helpful. I had to get a gum graft on the bottom front teeth and I am so pleased how everything turned out. After the procedure I was in a lot less pain than I had expected to be in. My teeth are no longer in pain due to the root being exposed prior to the procedure. I am just so happy to no longer be in pain!
