There are a few ways to go about this. You can do this without a third-party control by using the Open XML SDK for Office Documents. That SDK provides methods to manipulate Office documents and their contents. You could use these to load a template file which contained your letterhead in the header section. Present the body of the document in a rich text control and then save it out to a new Office document when the user is done.

Alternately, there are some third party controls such as Telerik's RichEdit that know how to open/save Office documents and present a full editing environment. We are currently using that control in one of our solutions doing the exact same thing. Except we store the resulting document in a database blob field and our interface is Silverlight.
