Patient Stories
Rober Levin MD Root Canal Bone Graft & LANAP
"As a physician practicing in New York City, I have had the opportunity to work with many exceptional healthcare professionals throughout my career. Dr. Ellis stands apart because he understands that oral health is not isolated from the rest of the body. He recognizes the important relationship between gum health, chronic inflammation, the immune system, cardiovascular health, and overall wellbeing.
What impressed me most was his rare combination of expertise in LANAP - Gum disease treatment, root canal therapy, dental implants, and complex restorative dentistry.
Dr. Ellis was among the earliest LANAP-certified clinicians and has decades of experience helping me preserve teeth that might otherwise be lost.
Too often, healthcare focuses on managing symptoms. Dr. Ellis focuses on understanding why the problem exists in the first place. His commitment to finding the root cause, combined with his biologic and whole health approach, is what makes him unique.
Many dentists can place implants. Many dentists can perform procedures. Far fewer possess the experience and judgment to determine when a tooth can be saved, when gum disease can be reversed, and when a comprehensive solution is needed. That level of expertise comes only from decades of treating complex cases.
If a member of my family needed advanced dental care, severe gum disease treatment, root canal therapy, or dental implants, Dr. Ellis would be among the very first professionals I would call.
Patients travel from around the world seeking his expertise. After meeting Dr. Ellis and seeing the depth of his knowledge, it becomes clear why."

Root Canal Retreatment & LANAP® Success Story
"I traveled all the way from Tokyo, to see Dr. Ellis. As a physician, I had undergone extensive dental treatment, including multiple root canals and cosmetic dental work. For several years everything seemed fine, but eventually I began experiencing recurring pain, inflammation, and discomfort that no one could fully explain.
As a woman in my 40s, I started noticing a pattern. My symptoms often became worse during certain times of the month, particularly around the full moon cycle. I felt as though my immune system was becoming weaker, and the recurring inflammation continued despite seeking care from many dental professionals in Japan.
What concerned me most was that the inflammation seemed to affect more than just my teeth. I often felt that something was not right, yet I could not find answers. Although treatments were performed, the underlying problem remained unresolved.
A physician friend of mine had completed fellowship training in the United States years earlier. During his time in Colorado, he personally became a patient of Dr. Ellis and experienced firsthand the level of care and expertise Dr. Ellis provided. When he learned about my situation, he strongly encouraged me to contact Dr. Ellis.
He told me that Dr. Ellis possessed a unique combination of skills that was difficult to find anywhere else. After meeting Dr. Ellis and experiencing his approach to care, I understood exactly what he meant. I was simply amazed. The depth of evaluation, understanding of complex dental problems, and focus on finding the root cause were unlike anything I had experienced before.
After traveling to Colorado for an evaluation, Dr. Ellis took a different approach. Rather than simply treating symptoms, he focused on identifying the underlying cause of my chronic inflammation and discomfort. He carefully reviewed my previous root canal treatments and explained how hidden dental issues could continue to affect overall health and wellbeing.
That was more than five years ago. Since receiving treatment, I have been free from the recurring pain and inflammation that once affected my daily life. I finally found the answers I had been searching for, and I no longer experience the recurring symptoms that troubled me for years.
I am deeply grateful for Dr. Ellis' expertise, dedication, and commitment to helping patients when others have run out of answers.
Thank you, and Thank you Dr. Ellis !!! Your care made a life-changing difference for me."

After 3 Failed Bone Grafts: A Life-Changing Success Story
"After three failed bone grafts and a failed root canal, I was exhausted, discouraged, and honestly beginning to lose hope. Every procedure seemed to lead to another setback. I spent years searching for answers, investing time, money, and energy, only to find myself facing the same problems over and over again.
When I met Dr. Ellis, everything changed.
Rather than focusing only on my teeth, he looked at the whole picture. He explained how gum health, root health, bone quality, inflammation, nutrition, and overall health all work together. No other dentist had ever taken that approach with me.
Dr. Ellis helped me understand why my previous bone grafts had failed and how my body could better support healing. His biologic and whole-body philosophy completely changed the way I thought about dental health, nutrition, minerals, and long-term wellness.
Today, more than five years later, I am still a patient of Dr. Ellis. Not because I have problems, but because I want to keep my teeth, roots, gums, and overall health in the best condition possible.
I no longer live with pain. I no longer worry about recurring dental problems. Most importantly, I no longer waste years searching for answers.
Dr. Ellis did more than restore my dental health. He restored my confidence, my comfort, and my quality of life.
Finding Dr. Ellis was one of the best decisions I have ever made."
— Thank you so much for Life Changing Experiences !

From Chronic Inflammation to Lasting Health
"As a professional athlete, I understand the importance of health, performance, recovery, and attention to detail. What impressed me most about Dr. Ellis was his understanding that every patient is unique. He looks beyond the teeth and considers factors such as inflammation, nutrition, oral microbiome health, and overall wellbeing.
Rather than simply treating symptoms, Dr. Ellis focuses on finding the root cause of the problem.
His comprehensive and personalized approach helped me understand the connection between oral health and whole-body performance in a way I had never experienced before.
Dr. Ellis combines exceptional clinical skill with a deep commitment to understanding each patient as an individual. That level of care is rare and is one of the reasons I confidently recommend him to family, friends, and fellow athletes."
