Thomas A Bissell, DDS, DMSC

Dental Examination
Minimal sedation relieves the anxiety patients feel before and during their dental exam. However, minimal sedation allows patients to respond verbally and physically to the dentist’s directions. The patient will be awake but calm and may remember parts of the experience after the procedure is completed.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
As the Bissell Periodontics and Dental Implant Center is a comprehensive surgical center, our patients do not have to spend their valuable time traveling to other facilities for necessary diagnostic tests, evaluations, or pre-surgical treatments. Our new office utilizes the latest dental technology, including an in-office CT scanner for ideal implant planning and placement in the safest, most predictable manner possible, and the VelScope Oral Cancer Screening System to painlessly detect oral abnormalities at the earliest and most treatable stages.

Teeth Cleaning
Fluoride Treatment

Fillings
Veneers
A. Laser gum surgery is both safe and effective. Lasers have been used in dentistry for decades to facilitate tooth whitening, enhance the bonding of veneers, and improve the stability of a filling. The Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP®) uses this same innovative laser technology to eliminate the bacteria that cause gum disease, without using scalpels or sutures. Dr. Thomas A. Bissell offers this gum surgery alternative in Chester, NJ.
Crowns
Esthetic and functional crown lengthening are procedures that expose more of the tooth beneath your gums. In some cases, this may be necessary to increase access for a restoration but in others, it is a technique to clear away swollen gums, uncovering a naturally beautiful smile. Dr. Thomas A. Bissell performs this cosmetic dental procedure in Chester, NJ to correct gummy smiles and prepare for difficult cosmetic restorations.
Bridges
Periodontal disease causes bone loss around teeth, which can increase the chances for tooth loss. Once a tooth has been lost, the supporting jaw bone will disappear over time. This can make wearing dentures uncomfortable. However, simple techniques are now available to regrow lost bone, provide support for dental implants, or to improve esthetics beneath a fixed bridge. Guided tissue bone regeneration does not always require the removal of bone from any other part of the body. Instead, many options use membrane barriers, tissue stimulating proteins, or bioactive growth factor gels. Occasionally bone grafting procedures are required; bone grafts can be from your own bone, tissue banks, or synthetic materials. The goal of each of these treatment options is to stimulate the body to grow new bone or to hold the space for the bone to regenerate into.
Dental Bonding

Root Canal Treatment
Using a CS 9300 system, Dr. Bissell captured a 3-D scan and came back with a diagnosis — a punctured sinus cavity caused by an implant and a separated file within the root canal-treated tooth. “My first thought was, ‘Finally, someone sees it.’ I just felt so relieved,’” Catherine remembers. “That was the beginning of my story with Dr. Bissell. He definitely made me feel like something great was going to happen.”

Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
A gingivectomy is usually performed when a patient has severe periodontal disease that cannot be cured with scaling and root planing or other periodontal procedures. Gingivectomies are performed to remove and reshape loose, diseased gum tissue and to reduce the depth of pockets between the teeth and gums.
Deep Cleaning

Dentures
Teeth do more than just help us chew our food and speak. They actually serve to stimulate the bone in the jaw. Each time you chew, the teeth stimulate the bone. Without this natural stimulation, the alveolar bone–the portion of the jawbone that anchors teeth in the mouth–begins to break down and is re-absorbed into the body. Since there are no longer teeth there that “need” the jawbone, the bone deteriorates and disintegrates. The rate of deterioration varies per person; however, it begins almost immediately after a tooth is lost or removed and continues throughout life. Once deterioration reaches a certain point, dental prosthetics–such as dentures–will no longer be useful because there will not be enough bone to support them.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are a permanent, natural looking tooth replacement method that have been used for decades to successfully replace a single missing tooth and multiple missing teeth. With Teeth-in-a-Day, you can walk into our office with your natural teeth and walk out with a whole new smile. The Teeth-in-a-Day method allows Dr. Thomas A. Bissell to perform extractions and place fully functional dental implants in the same day, for less than the cost of dental implants alone. First placed in 1965, dental implant technology has only evolved and improved over time. A dental implant procedure near Chester, NJ performed by Dr. Thomas A. Bissell can render the closest replication of your own natural teeth and can last you a lifetime.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Piezosurgery is a recently developed system for cutting bone without damaging soft tissue using ultrasonic micro-vibrations. Developed for use in Oral Surgery, Implantology, and Periodontics, this innovative technology allows doctors to perform procedures that were not previously possible.
Gum Surgery
If you have periodontal disease, you need treatment. Periodontal disease is progressive and if neglected, can cause bad breath, receding gums, tooth loss, and the degradation of your jaw bone. There are, however, numerous effective treatments available, from antibiotic therapy and deep cleanings to gum surgery. Dr. Thomas A. Bissell offers laser gum disease treatment in Chester, NJ to provide a more comfortable alternative to traditional gum surgery. The Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP®) utilizes laser technology to successfully treat your periodontal disease without the use of scalpels or sutures.
Osseous Surgery
Osseous surgery is performed as a treatment for gum disease and can be utilized to augment bone density for single or multiple teeth damaged by a periodontal infection. When you have periodontal disease that is not responding to any gum disease treatment in Chester, NJ, Dr. Thomas A. Bissell may recommend osseous surgery.
Tooth Extractions
Dental extractions are performed for a variety of reasons including tooth decay, injury, and for orthodontic treatment. Extractions are a relatively common procedure in most dental offices. The difficulty of the procedure varies depending on the case and the patient, however anesthesia is used to numb the area and prevent pain during the procedure.
Ridge Augmentation
There are two types of Ridge Augmentation procedures: Soft Tissue and Hard Tissue. Occasionally, both types of ridge augmentation are performed at once.
Bone Grafting
When one or more teeth are extracted from the mouth, soft tissue and bone can begin to collapse. Without the tooth root to stimulate it, the surrounding jawbone will almost immediately begin to collapse and shrink. If there is too much bone loss, it may be impossible to place dental implants and it may become more expensive, more invasive, more time consuming, and more uncomfortable to replace the lost bone. Ridge (or Socket) preservation is a type of bone grafting procedure that rebuilds and stabilizes bone where an extraction has left an empty, weakened socket.
