REXBURG, Idaho: Family First Dental wants to make it simpler for college students to see a dentist. New patients can get a full exam plus digital X-rays for a flat $79. The timing lines up with thousands of students heading back to Rexburg for fall semester, which starts in mid-September.
Cost is one of the main reasons students put off a checkup. The BYU-Idaho Student Health Plan does not cover routine dental care, so most students pay out of pocket when they need a dental cleaning or exam. The $79 price at Family First Dental is set up front. There are no surprise add-ons and no hidden fees.
The practice also keeps hours that work around a class schedule. Appointments run until 7 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The office is open on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. That makes it easier for students to come in without missing class or work.
"Students shouldn't have to guess what a visit will cost," said Dr. Craig Stout, DDS, owner of Family First Dental. "We tell you the price first, show you what we see on the screen, and let you decide. No pressure, no surprises."
Clear pricing is part of every visit. Before any treatment starts, patients get a written estimate that lists each cost. No one is pushed to say yes the same day. Patients can take the estimate home, think it over, and decide what is right for them.
Technology backs up that honesty. Family First Dental uses AI-assisted X-rays shown on a screen right in the treatment room. Patients can see where a problem is and understand what the dentist sees. It turns a checkup into a clear, two-way conversation.
The team also handles dental emergencies. Same-day appointments are available for sudden pain or a broken tooth. For larger treatment plans, the practice offers payment plans through WellCredit and Cherry.
Family First Dental serves Rexburg, Rigby, Sugar City, and St. Anthony. The office is at 286 E Moody Rd, Ste. F, in Rexburg. To book, call (208) 400-9946 or schedule online at familyfirstdentist.com. Students can ask about the $79 new patient exam when they call.
