Dr. Robert Ellis
Born and raised in Rigby, Dr. Ellis combines hometown values with advanced training to provide comprehensive dental care, focusing on minimally invasive implant treatment.
Dr. Robert Ellis was born and raised in Rigby, Idaho, where he learned the value of hard work and service to others on his family’s farm. After attending Ricks College and EITC, he worked in Tennessee and later at INEL in Idaho. Following a career shift, Dr. Ellis pursued dentistry, earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Marquette University in 2001.
Since then, Dr. Ellis has built a thriving practice in Eastern Idaho, providing patients with a full suite of dental care—from routine checkups and cosmetic enhancements to advanced implant treatments. While his practice covers all areas of dentistry, his true specialty is in minimally invasive mini dental implants, which allow patients to replace missing teeth or stabilize dentures with less recovery time and lower cost than traditional methods.
Dr. Ellis is grateful to serve the community he has always called home, and he feels fortunate to practice alongside his two daughters at West Wind Dental. He is proud of the strong relationships he has built with his patients and remains dedicated to offering high-quality care that improves both oral health and confidence.
