About Ellis Family Dental

Ellis Family Dental is a general dentistry practice in Salt Lake City's East Central neighborhood, on South 700 East. It's built around family dental care, so the same office can see a child in for a cleaning and a parent in for a crown replacement without a referral for routine matters. That range suits households that would rather keep one dentist on file than switch offices every time a different issue comes up, from a first checkup to a chipped tooth to something that needs more than a routine visit.

The service list covers most of what a family dentist handles day to day: cleanings and checkups, fillings for tooth decay, and extractions when a tooth is too damaged to save. For more involved repair, the practice offers crowns, caps that rebuild a tooth's shape, and bridges, a fixed replacement anchored to the teeth on either side of a gap. Root canal treatment clears an infection inside a tooth's nerve as an alternative to pulling it, and gum disease treatment addresses the gums before a problem reaches the bone. Cosmetic work includes teeth whitening, emergency dentistry covers sudden pain or a broken tooth, and affordable dental care here means cost isn't the reason a needed visit gets delayed.

If you've been putting off a cracked filling or an aching tooth, this is a practice that treats the checkup and the crown or root canal that follows under one roof, rather than sending you elsewhere for the harder part.

Cost depends on what's actually needed. A cleaning and a bridge aren't priced the same way, and the office can only give a real number after an exam, so treat any online estimate as a starting point, not a quote. Ellis Family Dental sits on South 700 East, and its mix of routine, restorative, and emergency services suits a household that would rather settle on one dental office than pick a new one for every type of visit. For anyone weighing a first appointment against putting one off, that's the case for a practice that already handles whatever comes after the exam.

Ellis Family Dental is a general and family dentistry practice on South 700 East in Salt Lake City's East Central neighborhood, offering cleanings, fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals, extractions, whitening, and emergency care for households of any age.

Started going when Rick (Ellis II) was the dentist and my kids were babies. Now I see RL (Ellis III) and my kids bring their kids. Great dentist.

This is seriously the best dental office you will ever go to. It’s a family business where they genuinely care about getting your teeth taken care of. They won’t try and sell you on things you don’t need and they’re always so kind. RL, the dentist, is the nicest guy and I don’t ever want another dentist. (Yolanda is pretty cool too…)

Dr. Ellis is the best dentist in Utah 💯 If you have a family — or want a happy family — this is your best option for dental care. My experience was excellent. Exactly what it should be. • Staff: Always happy and helpful, even while assisting others. They never make you feel ignored — even when I show up late, they treat me with kindness and professionalism. • Cleanliness: The office felt very clean, and the materials used during my procedure looked and felt high quality. Everything gave me confidence I was in good hands. • Communication: Dr. Ellis kept a great vibe throughout the entire visit. Even when I couldn’t respond much, he explained everything clearly and made sure I was comfortable and informed. • Quality: My teeth were truly taken care of. Thank you, Dr. Ellis, for showing that you genuinely care about your work and your patients. That means a lot. • Family-Friendly: This is the best option for family dental care — period. Warm, welcoming, and built for people who want the best for their families.

We love Ellis family dental! The experience is always quick, they are all so friendly, and I can always trust what they recommend for my teeth is what is best. Dr Ellis even met us on his day off for my daughter's emergency. Best office ever!

All the staff here are super friendly from start to finish. I felt taken care of. They were able to get me in within a few days of calling for a filling that fell out. With everything leaning corporate these days, family run dentists are getting more and more rare these days and I feel that they're underrated. I'll continue to go to Dr. Ellis for future dental procedures.
