Ellis Orthodontics

Dental Examination
Regular dental exams and cleaning visits are essential in preventing dental problems and maintaining the health of your teeth and gums. At these visits, your teeth are cleaned and checked for cavities. Additionally, there are many other things that are checked and monitored to help detect, prevent, and maintain your dental health. These include...
X-rays
The orthodontist initially conducts a visual examination of the child’s teeth. This will be accompanied by panoramic X-rays, study models (bite impressions), and computer generated images of the head and neck. These preliminary assessments are sometimes known as the “planning phase” because they aid the orthodontist in making a diagnosis and planning the most effective treatment.
Oral Cancer Screening
Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.

Teeth Cleaning
As you can see, a good dental exam and cleaning involves quite a lot more than just checking for cavities and polishing your teeth. We are committed to providing you with the best possible care, and to do so will require regular check-ups and cleanings.
Fluoride Treatment
Space Maintainers
During the early treatment phase, your pediatric dentist works with parents and children to eliminate orthodontically harmful habits, like excessive pacifier use and thumb sucking. The dentist may also provide one of a variety of dental appliances to promote jaw growth, hold space for adult teeth (space maintainers), or to prevent the teeth from “shifting” into undesired areas.

Fillings
Crowns
The practice of Dr. Ellis, with offices in both Dyer and Crown Point, has the specialized equipment, facility and staff to properly address today’s most demanding orthodontic needs in a warm and caring environment.
Dental Bonding
Bands are the metal rings which have been cemented around teeth. Loose bands pose no immediate threat, but if left untreated for several weeks, decalcification (a white spot) or tooth decay can occur. This is because the dental bonding agents normally seal the inner portion of the band from bacteria, saliva and plaque. If bacteria and saliva enter the crevice, an acidic byproduct is produced, which erodes tooth enamel.

Dentures
Clean the retainer properly – Removable retainers can become breeding grounds for calculus and bacteria. It is essential to clean the inside and outside thoroughly as often as possible. Hawley retainers can be cleaned with a toothbrush. Because harsh bristles can damage the PVC surface of a VFR, denture cleaner or a specialized retainer cleaner is recommended for this type of device.

Dental Implants

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Jaw Surgery
Comprehensive treatments are commonly used to correct growth irregularities. When the teeth are completely misaligned or the jaws are functioning poorly, orthodontic treatment may be combined with jaw surgery, tooth extractions or restorative surgery. Comprehensive treatment can begin prior to the loss of baby teeth, with several phases of such treatment required to optimize benefits.
Tooth Extractions

Orthodontics
Here at Ellis Orthodontics not only do we like working with our patients directly, but financially too! Orthodontic care is an investment, and we strive to make it obtainable for everyone. Before your complimentary consultation, we contact your insurance provider so we can accurately quote you what you are expected to pay out of pocket. Down payments are only $365!! We divide the final cost into a payment plan that is determined by how many months you will be in treatment. If you refer a friend or family member to our office, and they begin treatment, you may select a gift of your choice. We offer Sonicare tooth brushes, $25 gift cards, or even account credits. There is no limit to how much you can earn! Another way to save, is if you are treatment ready the day of your consult and sign up, we will take $100 off the final cost.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Removable devices include the Invisalign® system and headgear. These devices should be worn for a specified number of hours each day. The success of these removable appliances largely depends on the motivation of the wearer. The orthodontist monitors and adjusts the device at regular appointments.
Braces
Orthodontic braces were historically associated with teenagers. Today, an increasing number of adults are choosing to wear braces to straighten their teeth and correct malocclusions (bad bites). In fact, it is now estimated that almost one third of all current orthodontic patients are adults.
